Hello everyone…welcome to this week's Ways to Use It Challenge! I've been noticing a lot of craft metal being used on cards lately, so today we are going to use metal. Search those supplies for something made of metal…a craft sheet, tin foil, eyelets, paper clips, wire…you've got the idea, and use it on your card or project. I just know today's gallery will be beautiful, shimmery, and metallic! Have fun!
Remember to use the keyword, WT506 , when uploading your project so that we can all see your creation. It helps if you link it up back here too. Here is the the whole gallery: Make it with Metal

What a fun challenge - and a great chance to use those foil dp I have sitting around, just ignoring it. Shame on me! The pink is a foil dp from Paper Wishes and the orbs are silver with silver glitter/foil accents on it from Hobby Lobby.

Cathy- awesome challenge! I dug out these cool dc snowflakes from my stamping buddies, and did a 3 layer dc treatment for my snowman, taken from a hot beverage cup. Added an embossed foil background, and some shimmery trim. Here's Warm Your Heart

As I am in the baking mode shortly (banana breads), I thought this sentiment was just right- and I used a hedgie to up the cuteness factor Snuck in some bronze dp and foil for my metal elements. Here's Sent Flours

I remembered yesterday that I had this piece of tomato paste tube that I had embossed and then never used for anything - so I waited for today's challenges to go up to see if I could combine it with one of them. I'll have to take a better photo tomorrow - the metal and flash didn't want to be friends but even at lunchtime it was too dark for a daylight photo. Fun challenge, Cathy, thank you!

Here's my card for the Ways to Use It Challenge (WT506): It's all downhill from here
I used square metal brads in each corner of the top layer. Thanks for looking!
