A little bit of Gold

Today is really miserable, wet, cold and grey. It hasn't stopped raining since about 7.30 this morning, even the dogs don't want to go out it's been that heavy.

So I thought I would show you this card which has a little touch of gold to it, to brighten me up.

 I die cut the branch (a Memory Box Die) from a piece of Crumb Cake CS (Kept the branch, not used it yet) then stuck a piece of double sided sticky paper to the back turned it over and rubbed gilt flakes into the aperture. dI really like the way it turned out and am going to try it again with a different die, watch this space!!

 The blossoms are punched with the Itty Bitty punch and I used a gilt pen for the centre, not easy to see here. Mounted it onto Chocolate Chip CS. then at an angle onto the card.  The sentiment is from the Petit Pairs stamp set, I use this ever such a lot.

The base card is Crumb Cake, then Chocolate Chip edged with the Eyelet Border punch, then a piece of DSP from the Mocha Morning set, again edged with the Eyelet Border punch.

It's the card class tonight but I will be playing as it is Jo's turn to take it, so I will post the cards tomorrow afternoon. I am off to the Docs again in the morning to see if he can sort this cough out. I am not holding out much hope, I expect he willl now say it's a virus and I just have to let it run it's course.

Thanks for looking in, back tomorrow.
