Good morning peas! How are y'all? I hope March 1 is treating you well!
Here lately, (for the past year or two) I have noticed tons and tons of GOLD in our products so that got to me to thinking. Are you a lover of GOLD or SILVER?
Me? I am a firm SILVER which makes it super hard to find things these days. However, since DD LOVES gold and glitter and sparkle I have had to "bite the bullet" persay and buy some gold. I am not sure why but it is NOT my color in scrapping or life. I really dislike it lol. My friends laugh at me it is so bad.
How about you?

I am more likely to use gold in a scrapbook vs. silver.

Silver all the way. Can't stand the yellow gold. Wish there was more silver available.

I am a gold person if I had to pick. But I do like the look of silver and copper as well.

I like silver. I always hated gold but with the oversaturation of it in the scrapbooking market, I did get used to it and don't mind using it now. But given a choice, I will choose silver.

Both! And copper too. I've done two wedding layouts recently and one was silver and one was gold. The next one I do will be copper because it's a fall wedding and the colors are perfect for it.

I really don't like gold and struggle to use it. I am a SILVER person all the way. Even my wedding and engagement rings are white gold and not the more traditional yellow gold.

Silver, but since it's so popular, gold is growing on me.

Love all metallics, especially copper. If I had to pick, I'd say I'm more Team Gold.  |

Either, any, both. Love silver and gold. Love bling. Love sparkle.
I do tend to use silver for New Years - don't know why. But gold works too. It's all good with me. |

WOW! I love all the variety! joteves MINE TOO! Hubby (then boyfriend) first bought me a pair of earrings in yellow gold, then before he gave them to me we were talking about it and I told him how much I despised yellow gold OOPS! He went and exchanged them before giving them to me! My rings, earrings, necklaces etc are all silver/white gold! |

Rose gold and copper, but really I like all the metallic shades. I think it depends what's on the rest of the layout. I love silver with blue and winter photos, I think gold looks amazing with black, copper is great with autumnal tones, etc.

I love all metallics. What I use depends on my theme and the other colours I am using.
Copper is my favorite. It goes best with fall colours: oranges and Browns and gold.
I like silver with winter colours: blues and whites and dark starry skies.
Gold works best with summer greens or with traditional Christmas colours. I may use some gold in autumn projects, too.

Silver all the way. Can't stand the yellow gold. Wish there was more silver available.  And rose gold is ......perhaps not disgusting, but not something I would ever use. Can we please have some silver now? |

I lean towards gold, but use silver too (depends on the other colours involved!)
I don't like rose gold.
But I only wear silver jewelry!
(except earrings. I'm allergic to most metals other than gold and platinum)

Definitely silver. Not a fan of gold at all and it's so popular..ugh. I love pewter, copper and I'd like a rose gold too but I never find those colors

I don't wear gold at all. I am very cool toned in my complexion and I prefer silver or platinum jewellery. That being said, I LOVE gold for scrap pages, I know...weird. Whenever I am not sure what to add at the end I break out my trusty bottle of Heidi Swapp Gold Colorshine! Although, even better than yellow gold is rose gold or copper! I have a bottle of Lindy's Stap Gang copper mist for those pages (Cowabunga Copper for anyone looking for copper mist)! Shimelle's last line: Go Now Go! had copper embellishments, swooooooooon! I also have a roll of metallic rose gold/copper washi tape with clear hearts from Freckled Fawn which I obsess over. I may have a back up roll...for when this one runs out...maybe.

Gold for scrapbooking products but silver for anything I might wear.

Both. Then again my favorite set of rooms was in Versailles. I never knew I liked gaudy, but apparently I do. My home is mostly earth tones though.
Rings on my left hand-gold. Rings on my right hand-silver. Life is too short to pick.

I'm all about silver in jewellery and for my home but I love gold for scrapbooking. I prefer the warmer tones of the gold with the subjects I scrapbook.

Love them both for scrapping!
But hate mixing them on a page, unless it is a gold, silver, black page, with no other colors. Like a NYE page.
Now wear it? Gold girl all the way. If only my budget was a gold budget....

I only wear silver/white gold in real life and for many years I was a silver girl only in my scrapbooking but these days I will happy use gold or copper.
