Paper Pretties Monday

Hi again!  I hope you already started the birthday blog hop for ARTish's birthday.  Thanks for coming back for the challenge.  This week ARTish has created some really cute birthday image that we're playing with.  The challenge is a color combo...

Black, Gold & White

This was a challenge for me!  How do you decorate birthday with black and gold?  Well, I think I did a pretty OK job with this card.  It meant running to Joann's armed with a 40% off coupon for a gold gel pen.  Tell me what you think....

I created this card with a nice sketch from Arlana at Sweet Sketch Wednesday.  I miss playing along with Arlana's sketches, but I do try to get one in every now and then.

Supplies:

Images: Pretty Present
Card stock: Neenah Classic Crest, Black, White
Paper: Echo Park
Copics: C8, C10
Stamps: Boxes, Bags & Tags (PTI)
Ink: Tuxedo Black (Memento)
Tools: Circle Cutter (CM), 7/8" & 1" circle punch, gold embossing powder, gold gel pen
Embellishments: gold ribbon (SU), gold brads

I do hope you'll head on over and join us this week!
