GOLD Day! Last Bonus Draw!


I was past the point of no return before I decided I did not like my card today. I went with this week's color challenge at SCS which was Kiwi Kiss (Old Oive), Riding Hood Red (Ruby) and Pretty in Pink. I used the older colors, but did have a small piece of Kiwi Kiss DP which I ran through my Cuttlebug with the birthday folder. The complete awful recipe is at the end of the post. Hey... you can't win em all.Your GOLD addition to the basket which is now overflowing!
~2 pre-scored cards in Brushed Gold
~Gold Glory Embossing Powder (SU)
~small tin (w/glass lid) full of gold charms (a few shown)
~Fun light bulb jar full of gold brads (these can be any color you want with a little embossing powder!
~a small vial of Aztec Gold Pearl Ex
~a small bag of gold buttons
~a spool of Gold cord

So, how about a bonus drawing?
I would love to know your ONE favorite thing (not color group) that's been added to the basket so far! I'll draw a random winner on Saturday and announce the prize at that time too. I think you'll like it!
Have a great day and thank you for stopping by!

Don't be hating on this card. lol. I love it!! I'm going to own a Cuttlebug one of these days! I think the colors look great together and with your own little twist in there it's absolutely beautiful. ~Lucy~

I'm partial to Gold being that it starts with a G just like my name, kwim? I would say then my favorite would be the gold embossing powder.

Thanks!

I'd have to say the cuttlebug sheets! I'm addicted to them it seems! I saw them on the green day and ever since then I've been working hard to get sketches in!!!

Dawn said...

I love the large silver paper clips (I can never find any at the stores here) Those are so much fun to dress up and give as gifts!!! I will be back later with my challenge card.

I think you've commented on all but 1 of my cards (day 3), so I should have 15 challenge entries and one for each question of the day. I'd hoped to do more than one project for each day, but I'm just proud that I might have one for each!

Your basket is AWESOME and I'd be honored to welcome all the items into my home. I'd be most excited to try the transparency cards from clear day. I haven't played with them and have seen some super cool ideas out there.

Brianna said...

My favorite thing is the buttons! I love buttons!

Becky said...

I love your card! I think you are very talented and all of your cards are gorgeous!

My favorite are the big paper clips! I've been wanting to alter some for a while, but have never found any. I do live in WV, so we don't have much around here!

Denise ~ Paper Ponderings said...

I think it would have to be the pink paper trimmer. I love pink!

Sue D said...

I think my favorite thing I am excited about in the basket is papertrey paper since I've never tried any before.

Are there still other Sue's because I keep forgetting to add Grandma Sue to the comment posts. Sorry!

SueB said...

My fav thing would have to be the cool light bulb jar in the latest offering ... but just so you don't think I'm wimping out by choosing something from your latest post, my 2nd fav's the black Monday Metal frame!
Here's wishing you a t'riffic b'day!
later, 'gator!

Hmm, that's a tough question but I think this new light bulb jar is just the neatest. I've never seen anything like it! Everything in the basket is absolutely fabulous though! You've really outdone yourself and someone is in for a great treat!

By my count I should have 15 challenge entries and 18 entries for the questions. I wish I had more time to play and do the rest too, there's a few I'll be doing even when RDOA is over. Quite inspiring stuff!

CreativeJeaux said...

My favorite thing in your WONDERFUL basket is actually that light bulb jar! I reallly like it! I have a large SBUX mug/cookie jar that it would fit in nicely with. I love fun oversized things!

Tami Grandi said...

I think my fave is the ODBD stamp set!

I really liked the rainbow of ribbon - but I'm not clear if that was part of the basket or a daily give-away - but it really caught my eye. Thanks for all you've done to get the creative juices going. This was alot of fun!

Pamk said...

the cuttlebug swirls and the buttons.

Happy Birthday! You posted on my blog on Monday so I'm returning the birthday wishes! Hope you have a wonderful day!

Kathy W said...

Happy Birthday!! Like others, I just want to comment that the lightbulb jar is very cool and unique...but my favorite thing in your basket is the red mailbox. I have never altered anything, and this would be so cool in our second grade classroom as we study letter writing. BTW, I like your card. Very cool with the CB embossing and the white dots. TFS.

Cathy Spicer said...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! I've met your challenge and have all 18 cards posted in my SplitCoast Gallery. WAHOO!!

I think probably the light bulb jar with all the little goodies in it. I love interestingly shaped boxes and jars, etc.
