Gold at the Sunday Stamper

Hello there! How are you today? Good I hope! Thanks for all your comments and support yesterday - sounds like I hit a raw nerve with some of you! We really all do have to be so careful.

Today I want to share a card with you that I made in response to the Hels Sheridan Sunday stamper this week which is Gold. I was lucky enough to win a set of stamps from Crafty Individuals and I chose the set I've used on my card today - well its only part of the set! Its called three kings of Christmas and you can get it here.

Here's what I did:




I started with the main panel, stamped and coloured with my speccies then mounted onto gold mirri board. Then I took a white card and used versa to stamp some palm trees and added brass regular wow powders and heat set. Then I stamped the Gold Frankincense and Myrrh, used scattered straw DI around the edge,  added the netting and the topper and voila - jobs a good un!!!

I'd like to enter this into the Sunday Stamperpinkleart/sunday-stamper-fields-of-gold
