Just Us Girls #406 - Trend Week

That's right crafters.  It's Trend Week at Just Us Girls and our host Judy has chosen
There are so many ways to add shine to your card. The difficult part is in photographing it.
It's hard to tell in this photo but the Altenew flowers are embossed in gold and the kraft cardstock came embossed with the wonderful foil design  Here's another view.
Plenty of shine here but still not as great as IRL.

The Design Team and our August Guest Designer Darnell have some fantastic cards for your inspiration over on the blog.  Give them a visit and then make a card to enter in the gallery.  You may be chose Chic of the Week with a chance to be our October guest.

Oh, I love how you have used that awesome patterned paper here. The kraft and neutral colors are such a nice contrast to the shine, it all comes together perfectly!! Thanks so much for fixing my faux pas when I lost your photo...lol. I think your card is fabulous!!!

I can imagine how beautiful this golden card is IRL, Bobby! The flowers against that patterned background are delicious!! Hugs, Darnell

That bg paper is simply gorgeous Bobby as is the beautiful floral stamping. We never seem to get shiny cards to photograph like we should as they are always soooooo much much better IRL.

Beautiful card and the shine is caught perfectly Bobby! I agree that the hardest part is the photography, same with trying to capture 'black' cardstock cards too, these are difficult for me too...

This is lovely, Bobby ... the soft colouring with the gold foil/embossed detail is so elegant! Hugs, Anita :)

I am loving all of that shine! Your flowers are absolutely gorgeous and that background is the perfect backdrop for them.
