Gold, Silver or Bronze with the Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge DT

Good morning to you all in the land of blog

Today sees the next challenge at the 


with the theme this week chosen by the very talented Helen,  who chose the theme of 

Gold, Silver or Bronze

We are sponsored this week by the fabulous
who are offering a $10 voucher to the winner

So I made for my inspirational piece, you got it another Wild Rose Studio inspired, but don't forget to hop over to the main challenge site to see more gorgeous creations

In line with the theme I have gone with silver.  The base colour and contrast here is the silver mirror card.  The papers are by Papermania from Grimsby Crafts.  The MS punch is the Snowflake edge punch.  The dies are grand ovals and the dies are the frosty corners by Memory Box. The ribbon is from the Hobby House along with the little pearls and the bell from stash. 

Here is a close up of the image coloured in Copics, with some Atyou glitter pens and a white sakuro gel pen for the snow and stickles for the fluffy bits

I would like to welcome my new follower and as always, I would like to thank all of my wonderful visitors and followers for the lovely and inspirational comments you leave, which allows me to hop on over in return to see your own lovely work.
