june papertrey blog hop



It's that time of the month again... Papertrey's monthly blog hop

This time, it's all about the colour gold which is very much on trend when you look at fashion, home decor and even paper crafting.  Here is the inspiration photo...



I was inspired by the middle photo, the one with the monogram and sunshine rays. 

I do not have any gold embossing powder or gold ink so I decided to just use a gold cardstock and emboss it to add some texture and detail.  Here is my card...



I used Papertrey's stamper's select white cardstock, sunrise impression plate, limitless layers: circle dies, Hello Sunshine stamp set and Martha Stewart's butterfly punch.  The gold cardstock is from DCWV and the flair badge is something I won from a blog giveaway.  Not very clear on the  photo but under the words "take flight" is a feather which is also trendy right now.

Thanks for stopping by and happy hopping!
