It's been a while since I've entered the Papertrey Ink monthly blog hop, but I happen to be at home today, and I had planned to make some cards, and there was the inspiration just begging to be used! Yay! The challenge this month is to use both silver and gold on a single project. The second challenge was to photograph a shiny silver and gold card, lol!
I hope that you all had a wonderful Christmas. I certainly did. While I complain no end about the heat and humidity of Summer, I just love our Christmases swimming and having fun in the pool! The kids are happy, we're happy, it's awesome!
Edit to add: I'm joining in at CASology where the cue card is LIGHT.
Thank-you for visiting me. I hope to be back a few times over the next couple of weeks as I have a little time off work, which theoretically will translate into a little extra crafting time, yippee!

So very pretty! Great mix of stamping and sequins! Happy holidays and happy hopping!
Clean, simple and oh so gorgeous!!
So beautiful, Michelle! I too, had a problem photographing my card...but you captured the 'shiny' perfectly!
Absolutely love this! Beautiful CAS card.
This is so pretty. I found it difficult to use silver and gold together, but you did it brilliantly. As for those tiny stamps, if they are PTI, and you can go through your old orders to find when you originally bought the sets, PTI will send you replacements for the little lost ones. Yes, they do that, and I have done it more times than I would care to admit.
Love the shine in silver -- pretty card
This is CAS perfection, Michelle! I don't mind heat, but not a fan of humidity at all - hope it cools off a bit for you :)
Michelle, SUPER fun, and GLAM!!!! Glad to see you in the gallery at the PTI blog hop!!
Oh I love this! Way to rock your stamps...awesome CAS and super fun card Michelle. I HATE when I lose stamps :(
Love how the 'shine' works up in silver. Did mine in gold. Beautiful shimmery card! Reading through your comments, loved learning we could have our lost stamps replaced. I have lost a few over the years, and felt heartsick. Each stamp has a home in a plastic disc cartridge, but those little ones are squirmy! Joyce is a wealth of stamping information! So glad she's had the experience!
Aaaaah, a pure CASlicious card, Michelle! Your design ethetic is something I aspire to!!
I'm glad you had a happy and warm Christmas holiday frolicking in the pool! I wish you all the best in the new year and no more lost tiny stamps! Enjoy your time off!! Hugs, Darnell
Awesome card Michelle. Love the die-cut word and those metallic dots.
I love this card!! I have to get the new dies for the shaker kit, I forgot about that :) I hate losing those tiny stamps, too...I was lucky enough to find a few over time. I hope you they come back to you eventually! Thank you so much for the love on my posts!! I really appreciated it.
This is so pretty! Lots of sparkle and shine. And I lost a stamp once from a Christmas set...I'll always regret that :(
Simply, beautiful!
Beautiful card...and so sorry that you lost some of you little stamps, I know just how you feel. But then you just never know and they may show up. Wishing you a very Happy New Year!
Also perfection for CASology too!!! Thanks for joining us!!! (My PTI was not so CAS, LOL!!!)
Happiest of Holidays Michelle!!!!! May your New Year be happy and bright!!!
Lots of light reflected off that Shine die cut! Love it! So glad you joined us at CASology this week!
This is absolutely stunning - I think that you smashed both challenges there!! ;) I'm sorry to hear about your missing stamps - I temporarily lost a tiny stamp once (like you, I don't lose ANYTHING!) but I was lucky that it did turn up, so I have my fingers crossed for you :)
I'm glad that you've had a great Christmas, I hope your seeing the New Year in was just as fabulous and wish you all the best for 2015 ;)
Gorgeous, shiny card! My crafty heart goes out to you on the lost stamps!! We've all been there I'm sure, but it doesn't lessen the sinking heart feeling when we discover the loss. And of course in the future those are always the images that would be "perfect" for our project! While cleaning this summer I squealed (really!) when I found the tiny star I've been missing for over a year stuck under an ink pad. How odd is that. Here's hoping they turn up for you!
Love the shine on your card and the fabulous sentiment! Thanks for playing along with CASology this week!
And I feel your pain about the lost stamps. I've lost a couple of tiny ones and also the "Happy" part of a Happy Birthday stamp that'd I'd cut into two. So devastating!
So pretty, Michelle! Love all the shiny elements you added on your card. Thanks so much for playing along with CASology. May
Very pretty Michelle. Love the silver and gold together.
