Kim asked us to use "silver" on our cards for the WT Challenge today. I went with silver EP and some metallic matte silver paper from Michael's which I dearly wish they still stocked. : ( I gave my pink CS a squiggly wash of acrylic paint before I stamped the heart with VM and heat embossed it with silver.

I like the effect of the paint under that funky heart. I know what you mean about the paper - I used be able to get a lovely matt silver card, and now the same company has switched to a really bright metallic mirror-finish. Not nearly as classy.
