Silver & Gold Challenge #58


I hope you all are getting in the mood for the holidays. I know I am. 

The challenge this week is a COLOR CHALLENGE. 

                  SILVER AND/OR GOLD

We want to see  sparkly, shimmery cards with silver and/or gold on it. Now you don't have to go with a holiday card if you don't want to. Just anything following the color theme. Also silver an/or gold MUST  be a main color. I don't want to just see a tiny bit. 

Our amazing sponsor this week is BUGABOO STAMPS

Everything That You Ever Wanted to Know About Bugaboo Stamps: A Short Essay:
As if raising five children in the frozen land of the North was not enough of a challenge, Jodie Mackrell decided to dip her cold little Canadian toes into the world of papercrafting by opening an online store full of her illustrations. That was two years ago. Today Bugaboo Stamps is one of the leading companies in digital images, and we're still growing!  From seriously snarky to sugary sweet to sublimely soulful all the way over to the other side of the super sexy spectrum, you're bound to find all that you need and more to create your paper projects.  Jodie works very hard to provide New Releases and Freebies every week! 
 If your taste runs to rubber (and you know who you are), you can find Bugaboo Stamps   at Totally Stampalicious. And finally, join the Bugaboo Stamps DT   for weekly challenges at Catch the Bug

They will be offering the winner of this challenge  FREE DIGIS

Here are our amazing Design Team samples to get your mojo flowing! While you are looking check out our amazing new Designers and leave them some love.

Gorgeous coloring, die cuts, and paper piecing are just a few of the details we've seen. Be sure to stop by and visit a few of the other entries. There are some wonderful cards linked up to this challenge!
