This fortnight's challenge theme is to showcase a project using
your Favourite Matt or Shiny (& why).
your Favourite Matt or Shiny (& why).
You MUST explain WHY it is your favourite.
Here are the beautiful creations made by our Design Team to get your mojo flowing:
I do use mirri card occasionally, but as well as finding it hard to photograph I do prefer to colour coordinate my cardstock to my image (I think I've got an OCD !). I also prefer pearls to rhinestones as accessories. Therefore it's definitely a matt choice for me :0)
Carol
I like matt card and papers as I like to add wee bits of the shiny stuff to make the card pop. I think its more pleasing to the eye.
Mojca
You can't go wrong with matt papers, but I always add some shiny embellishments to make the card more interesting. so I really can't decide, but I think the dominant is definitely matt, also because it is so easy to take pictures!
Sarah
The possibilities are endless with a matt surface to work on. In this case I used a VERY matt dark grey ribbed card. It never presents problems when trying to photograph projects either!! My digi papers were also printed on to thick matt paper too for a touch of quality.
Suzette
I love matt cards and paper. I sometimes add a some shiny embellishments to the cards but that is as far as I take the shine lol!
Wilma
I always use matt paper. To be honest I don't like shiny paper. In my opinion it diverts attention from the overall picture. When the card need something shiny I add rhinestones.
So now it's over to you.
We hope you will join in our challenge, show us your style and
showcase your Favourite Matt or Shiny (& why).
Good luck, and happy crafting.
