Scrappers Block - First DT assignment....

I just want to share my first DT assignment from Scrappers Block with you. The challenge is to:-

GO METALLIC!
It may be metal embellishments, or a layer with a metal finish or effect. Think tin foil, embossing, charms, coins, keys and cogs. Brads, wire, gold leaf and staples! If it's metal we want to see it.

Here is my example:




I used metal rings to make the 'g' in my title, a metal charm and metalic look PP.

Hope you will come play along, you have untill May 18th and the person with the winning LO will get to design a page for Scrappers Block's next challenge!
