METALLIC
We'd like to see CLEAN & SIMPLE cards with something that has a METALLIC finish to it... ink, embossing, card, charms, actual metal... come on people let's get creative!
I've used my new die from Memory box, I love it:0) Behind the card you can put a battery candle it looks lovely at night! I cut the die from copper mirri card then cut it out again from the card base and with fine acetate from a small bag mounted it into the die cut shape. Glued it with Art Glitter dries clear, peel offs to finish, job done!
I hope you like and if you don't already know all about the challenge at LIM pop over and have a look there is some brilliant inspiration and a lot of lovely people there:0)

Oh wow Gay you have created 2 amazing cards. xx
Hi Gay!! These are BEAUTIFUL!!! How funny...I had never seen this tree die used, but I ordered it a couple weeks ago...I thought it looked so pretty and interesting, it was just shipped a couple days ago...so now I am REALLY excited to have it!! I love how you did the first one...and putting light behind the card...creative genius...simply lovely:)!!
Those cards are amazing. Love the idea of putting a battery candle behind it.
Gorgeous Gay!! I really love how your cards turned out. The black on black with the bling is fabulous!! Very elegant and at the same time WOW!!!!
I have that wonderful die but haven't put it to use yet. Now you have inspired me.
i love both..but the second one...!
Oh God . . . this is ANOTHER thing you're MAKING me put on my wish list! I'm going to stop visiting your blog!
NOT REALLY! That was just an empty threat . . . I LOVE visiting you as you are soooo inspiring.
Hugs, Sandra
Hi Gay, I love your acetate card, so clever! But my favourite is the black card - very classy and minamalist. When I first made black christmas cards a few years back my friends were saying eh??? But I think they are perfect! :)
Hi gay thanks for your lovely comments. I think the wood was the problem not the crackle as it is quite porous the wood I mean not the crackle lol , but I quite like the effect anyway. Thanks for the tip .
Marie
Amazing and gorgeous cards.

Hi Gay
Ohhhh it's good to be back amongst all this lovliness again. I've had a great time browsing back through your stunning projects and had to stop on every one and look at what you'd done. Your blog is one of my favourites to visit.
This tree die is amazing, I've never seen one like it and the way you've used the negative bit as well is just inspired.
Hope all is good with you.
Hugs Lisax
