Metallic Secrets

Hello all!  There's a break in the quote stamp samples as instead I'm very happy to be sharing a project over at the PaperArtsy blog tonight as part of this fortnight's Metallics theme.  I've a trio of money envelopes (almost exactly ATC-size, but not quite) on display, with lots of gleaming White Gold Fresco and Liquid Platinum embossing powder.  And to counter all that shininess, I couldn't resist adding just a touch of rust.


 I hope you'll be able to hop over to PaperArtsy to see what I've been up to.  And although it's true that this is a break in the quote stamp samples, I've still managed to involve one of my new word stamps from EAB03 Music and Silence - I just can't put them down!

 Thanks for stopping by and hopping and I'll see you again soon.

More gold has been mined from the thoughts of men than has been taken from the earth.

If you don't mind hopping to see the full set, I'd love to share this with the Metallics theme also going on at Stamps and Stencils
And I'm just in time to let it Shimmer and Shine at the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge, again, if you're happy to hop to see the full creation

    Girl!! You always know how to rock out amazing texture! And wow! I am sitting here with my jaw dropped at how you've incorporated all those gorgeous metalllics. These are stunning and I especially like how you mixed shiny and rusty metals. You always have such extraordinary creative vision and I never cease to be amazed with what you come up with. Thanks for taking the time to share these stunners with us for this week's Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge!

    These are stunning Alison! I love your background techniques, the touches of gold embossing really add elegance! The negative film strips are a great focal pieces, and the way you split up the sentiment into three pieces is very clever! A wonderful set!! sending hugs :)
