Friends are Golden

Friends...where would we be without them?
I'm back with another post for the PTI 8th Anniversary party going on.  One of the challenges is to take out the metallics and create a card.  I have jumped onto the golds and silvers trend, at first in small doses like adding 3 gold sequins, maybe a heat embossed gold or silver sentiment...but now have worked up to this large amount of foils and, heavens, even mixed gold and silver together on a single card!  I was even brave enough to add more gold in the great sentiment and make an extra gold embossed leaf.  I don't know what has come over me.  It must have something to do with it feeling like Spring is right on the doorstep...
I was inspired to use this new to me Mighty Oak set from PTI because of the friend sentiment, and the PTI challenge.  It was hard to get a photo of this as the foil acts like a mirror and keeping my shadows out of the shot, well, I guess sometimes you really do need a set up with a camera tripod!  Something to put on the wish list.
I hope that you are having a great day!
Thanks for visiting friends,
Chriss
