Glittery snowflakes and Blogger problems

Hello!

I don't know what's happening with Blogger ... Every blog I visited yesterday and today has had word verification on ... I'm told that mine did too even though it's switched off ... 
I hope it gets fixed soon - if it's still showing it's a Blogger problem 

Glittering snowflakes it the theme at City Crafter this week and I have 2 more cards to share ... One with gold accents and one with silver


This is the subtle gold I used a couple of days ago and the embossing folder is one I've had for the longest time... you can see the gold better in this photo


I used the inlaid die technique and both the word dies and the snowflake are from Simon Says Stamp

This is the silver version


and this time I used a grey card stock as my base


The shading on my BG is not sponged by the way ... I used a digital paper from Pink Petticoat's Ombre range ... 

I've a friend coming to visit this morning so I'd better say goodbye for now

Enjoy your day

Hugs

~ Ros ~

Another stunning Christmas card Ros! Love the glittery star looking over your fabulous little Christmas town! I want to live there, it looks so cozy with the smoke coming out of the chimneys! hugs :)

Beautiful and peaceful scene (one I could do with right now..lol)...another gorgeous masterpiece!!
As for blogger, I had to change mine to embedded for now, which I don't like, but it gets the "prove you are not a robot thing off"...however, I was told, if they just hit "publish", it will publish without using the code, but who knows that right!! Always something with blogger it seems!!

Beautiful scene Ros! Love your background and embossing.

Geesh sweetie these are priceless. They are amazing! Love your take on this weeks'theme and they turned out gorgeous!

I noticed the word verification too. I switched it off from the beginning but don't know if you stumbled upon it when you visited me. It's time consuming and it seems to be a Blogger issue. I hope it will be solved soon.

Sending love,

Gorgeous Ros! LOVE the silver snowflake!

The inlaid die technique! Who would have known - it looks great... and I looked at similar letter dies last night... your card might just tip the scales toward the purchase. And yes, word verification has been on for a while...

Once again, your cards just took my breath away, Ros! (You'll be the death of me one day, lol!)

Most of us are having that frustrating problem with Blogger right now. I found out by accident that you can just ignore it, so you can tell your readers that. They can just click publish like usual without proving they aren't robots - so then what's the point of them putting it on there??

Happy Holiday Hugs! Darnell

This is so sweet! Love the snowflake and the color of the background! I do noticed a lot of word verification or rather number verification going on for a while now!

Gorgeous card Ros! Love the beautiful winter wonderland scene that you created!

Stunning cards Ross, that folder makes for a really beautiful background and the dies are wonderful too.
I think everyone is having the same problems with verification. I have been told that you can just ignore it, and that is what I am going to do now.

A gorgeous card Ros! I love the snow it makes the whole scene seem so real!! One of my teammates said that you leave your comment and can ignore the work verification just click comment. I tried it and it works!! Maybe pass the word along ;)

Wonderful card! Have a nice day! ))

You're right Ros, I've noticed that, too, so I tested it on my own blog, added a comment (and removed it afterwards) but it didn't have verification on. You might want to test it this way, too? On to your wonderful Christmas card now, it's so pretty, love how you sponged that sky, it's the perfect Christmas sky! Hugs, Ira x

I was about to comment on that beautiful soft inked sky. hee hee These are lovely Ros. The embossed image is really cool. Don't think I've seen anything like this. It makes a wonderful soft scene. Beautiful!
