ABC10Q23: this is my entry for the letter Q - quartz. I told my teen daughters what I was going to do and they groaned at my pun...which, of course, meant I HAD to do it!
This background is my third try using the cube builder stencil. Geometry and I are not friends! It took me three tries to use it correctly to get the cube effect. Cubes just seemed to go with the quartz. I used black and gray on the cube builder stencil to get that background. I had originally thought I'd do it in shades of purple but my quartz just disappeared then.
I colored the quartz following a photo on the computer. Then heat embossed the sentiment which is from two stamp sets, Perfect Words (SU) and Sohcahtoa (Altenew).
I matted the background with black and put that on a purple card base. The sentiment is popped up with dimensionals.
Have you stopped groaning from the pun yet?
Thanks for looking, I had fun making this.

You go girl! This is such a fun card Catherine so I am glad you made this. Your bg is stunning and really showcases this gorgeous quartz piece. Your fun punny sentiment ties this all together so beautifully! ~Karen.
