"ALL Things Metallic" ... well in the end this card ended up as ALL metallic.
I've made my card for Virginia's View challenge #9 and Merry Monday #134 and Inkspirational with a work prompt - Shine.
It seems I just couldn't get away from an ornament for the Metallic theme and of course I can always do with another Christmas card. I stamped this Chocolate Baroque bauble in weathered wood distress ink and then water colored it with Twinkling H2Os (metallic lustre). Then to help the snowflake standout more I went over it with silver gelly roll pen. Then I die cut a snowflake in silver paper and it just so happened to match perfectly with the stamped image - spruced it up with so glitter glue and a few blue gems and splattered a few blue water spots over the empty white space. Then I layered the white card on soft metallic grey and dark navy metallic card stock and onto a white card base. I finished the card with a simple Kaisercraft sentiment and a grey metallic satin bow. (The top photo is truer to the colour, but a bit dark)....ALL Metallic, and Grey/Silver, Blue and an Ornament for Merry Monday and shiny for Inkspirational.
