(Note: because I used metallic paper, this did not photograph well and I tried both indoors and out. I gave up a long time ago trying to get glitter and metallics to show up in photos.)
I made a card like this last year and liked it so well that I remade more like it with a few different variations. It is so quick and easy, and rather simple, but I like it.
Indoor shot: white with silver matting |
Same card shot outdoors |
different variations using silver and gold matting |
I used my 2 most favorite embossing folders, Cuttlebug's Swiss Dots and the Merry Christmas one is by Sizzix. The holly sprig is cut from Cricut Joys of the Season and I used metallic silver and gold artboard/posterboard for matting.
I'm going to enter this at The Cuttlebug Spot's Anything Goes Challenge. I discovered and started "following" T.C.S. back last spring and just a few days later they went into "suspended animation" so I'm glad they're back and I look forward to seeing all the great creations over there. (Hopefully I won't shut them down again.)
Now go make it a good day for someone else
and it'll come back to you.

ReplyDeleteI NEVER do tone on tone, but now I REALLY want to give it a shot! These are GORGEOUS, and I'm loving that little bit of gold and silver between the layers! BEAUTIFUL!!!! Hugs- Glora
ReplyDeleteLovely card and I really like white on white. Thanks for joining us at the Cuttlebug Spot.
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful cards Tami. I love them. In fact it inspired me to do that last card you commented on. Sry you didn't get to be full time on The DT for MCT. But you got your foot in the door and get to be a guest DT. Woohoo that is something. Hugs :)
ReplyDeleteTami,
ReplyDeleteHi really love the tone on tone, silver and gold. All are beautiful and give great ideas for our cards!
