Golden Sentiment

Happy midweek, friends! This week we’re exploring a fun design theme – all that glitters is gold. And we’re using all kinds of golden crafty goodies, new and old, to create our projects. Today’s clean and simple design uses a die negative as the star of the show and combines some Gathering Together products with the Sentimental Framing stamps.

We get started with a neutral base of Very Vanilla cardstock. Our focal panel is the backdrop of our card front and combines a sheet of the Gathering Moments paper pack with some gold textured metallic paper. The largest leaf die from the Gathering Moments die set provides our negative that allows that beautiful gold focal image to take center stage. Our sentiment from the Sentimental Framing stamp set is stamped in Early Espresso and then cut out with the Stylish Shapes banner die using the extension method. I really love the play on words with this sentiment and the negative space of this card design – it really couldn’t have worked out more perfectly! The sentiment is adhered at the bottom-third of the card with dimensionals over a double twist of Mossy Meadow & Gold ribbon. We finish things off with some green Traditional Sparkling sequins – a perfect way to tie it all together.

I’ll be bringing you some more shiny goodness tomorrow. I hope you’ll drop in and check it out!
