We have a new challenge at Inkspirational and this time Marlena has chosen the theme of "Gold dipped". An interesting theme, right? 
As you can see I "dipped" my reindeer in gold embossing powder. The stars are stencilled with gold glitter paste, I partly dry embossed the background and stapled on some sequins.
In my head I visualized a wintery look - ombré style - going from white to more and more gold. It didn't really turrn out like I hoped it would, and no time to do a remake right now but when I get some more time on my hands I might have another go...
My teamies did a great job -please head over to the challenge blog to have a look.

Pia your card is so elegant in the gold dipped. I think that it looks amazing...you are so hard on yourself.
beautiful card Pia, love the effect dipping the die cut with the gold embossing powder had, clever stuff.
Oh my goodness -one amazing card-I just adore it-the stag dipped in gold like this and then all white with the score lines-just one stunning card Pia-congrats on how awesome it is x
I think this came out amazing Pia! Such a magical wintry piece! The score lines add a handsome sophistication and you added the perfect amount of shine~
Wonderful technique and design Pia.

We are the most critics of ourself, isn't it? Sometimes we have a clear image in our heads but sometimes it doesn't come out exactly as that... but this isn't a bad thing... This card is very elegant and the ombré gold looks great. Love the embossing under the stag and the sparling stars. The touch of the stapled sequins finished the card perfectly (and I don't know how you do to staple sequins...! I have never tried this)

What an elegant card, I love the gold dipped reindeer and all of the white, so beautiful!
Pia, it may not have turned out the way you envisioned it, but it still turned out beautifully. Love the white with the gold accents. It's just very eye catching!
Enjoy your weekend.
