Gold


When I saw this weeks CAS.ology  cue word was GOLD was a bit stumped so gathered my stock of gold (which wasn't a lot I must admit!) and saw the gold jingle bell and just while in my head I was singing jingle bells the postie delivered a new set of die cut letters ...sorted - or so I thought ,the original had a piece of old  gold paper behind a negative cut of the word but it was 'slighty' squint and the next one grew way too much layers etc for a CAS card , and after three attempts ran out of gold paper so it was back to the old drawing board .
I always admire  cards that have just the word as the focal point on them so this is finally my interpretation of it though not sure if I actually like it...think there is something lacking???
Thanks for looking and I really appreciate any comments that you leave x

  1. Great to get a head start on those Christmas cards, isn't it? I don't think it's lacking anything, but perhaps a black layer under the white would provide a little more definition (although then your jingle would be black)? I know I do that often with my cards! Thanks so much for playing along with us at CASology this week!
