I love the look of mirror card but find it extremely hard to photograph, plus it seems to show up every fingerprint of every person who has ever been within three feet of it! A good compromise is this wonderful metallic gold card that has a brushed finish. It's still nice and shiny but without the drawbacks of a high, polished shine. And it just so happens to be my "G" word for today... gold.

What a gorgeous card Beccy. I do love mirror card but it is hard to use. I like you tip. I usually use it for mats and layers I really should be more adventurous. Take care. Hugs Jackie
