Golden Projects

If you had asked me a few years ago if I thought gold would be making a comeback, I'd have laughed at you.  And yet here we are - gold is everywhere!  I know that I am loving it and our designers seem to be too!  Here's a look at some gorgeous golden projects!

  Practical Scrapper Cathy created this "A World of Thanks" with some gold ephemera pieces from Crate Paper's Maggie Holme's Flea Market collection and a few gold sequins!

All That Glitters - Using Gold on Your Project

You've heard the saying "All that glitters is not gold."  Well, that's not true here at Practical Scrappers!  Today, our On Trend team is providing a few nuggets of inspiration using gold embellishments.  Take a look at how they have made these projects glitter and shine! 

Practical Scrapper Wendi Robinson used gold-accented embellishments on her card from the Dear Lizzy line

Practical Scrapper Nicole Laha used gold spray ink to color paper arrows and to add a few splatters to the white background of her layout. The frame from the Pier collection by Crate Paper was the perfect accent, adding more metallic gold to this layout.

Practical Scrapper Charissa used gold spray ink to paint a gold background behind the layers on her layout. She also used gold star tissue paper, along with glittery puffy star stickers and gold sequins, to create a monochromatic layout.

Practical Scrapper Lanette used gold embossing powder on her chipboard elements.

Practical Scrapper Malika used gold sequins, glitter tape, and washi tape to embellish her layout.
