Gold and Silver

Today I am really please to be joining in with Color Hues #30 as a guest designer, but unfortunately there was something about my post that got blocked by blogger so it didn't publish on time. I am hoping that by re writing the post it might work. I have no idea what the problem was, the message just said it violated guidelines!




The colours for this challenge are gold and silver so I decided to have a go with my hot foil quill from we are memory keepers and my scan n cut. I am quite pleased with how it worked. I hope you like it. The panel was cut with a scalloped frame die and a couple of die cut snowflakes were added. They are very sparkly, the panel was mounted on some of the same sparkly silver paper but unfortunately you can't see it in the photos.



Thanks so much to all at color hues for having me and I hope you get a chance to join in, who doesn't love gold and silver? I bet the gallery will be really special this time.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog today, I really appreciate it.

Congrats on your GD spot, Hilary! And with such a lovely card.
I'm hoping I can finally have a play at Color Hues this time. I always intend to but never get around to really do it. Much the same as with the Squash it challenge ... sigh.

Hilary, this is elegance personified! I am not familiar with that quilling machine, but assume it is how the silver tree design came about?
LOve the gold paper, and need to know if I might be able to get it here in the States?
Congratulations on your win, and despite the blogger issues, you are a most wonderful guest!

Blogger seems a bit crazy in these days, I have to prove I'm not a robot for putting a comment on some blogs and however all is slow.
