Today's card was a variation on yesterday's layout. I was excited that the current LIM challenge is GOLD in part because I recently got a package of brushed gold cardstock that I hadn't had a good opportunity to bust into yet! Also I really like making shiny cards!
I went for a variation and made gold the base color instead of the accent to see how that would turn out. I initially envisioned black and gold. With the browns, less black, and more gold showing, it's a different feel than I had initially thought I would go for. But like it in its own right. I might try something again with the black and gold. We'll see.
The materials are again from SU. The layout is again a variation on the current Retrosketches. The color inspiration was from the current Less is More Challenge.
Great card. I really like the layout. And brown and gold are real good together. I take it, the gold is more gold in real life than on the picture.

I'd say the gold is probably a medium-shimmer. It's nice; just enough glimmer that it can go either very fun or very elegant.
DeleteCool idea and love the colour scheme you chose
