Congratulations to this week's Featured Stamper, 4littlekittens!
I chose this card as my inspiration: Wedding binge 2 by 4littlekittens at Splitcoaststampers
LIST: Colours (white, silver), Techniques (heat embossing, dry embossing), Elements (embossed background, LOVE theme, 4 letters in a grid, monochrome, square focal/sentiment, silver frames)
INCLUDE: heat embossing, dry embossing, 4 letter grid
MODIFY: used metallic rainbow colours, die cutting instead of stamp/embossing for grid (got 2 cards with the die cuts!), put heat embossing on the background and dry embossing on the grid
EXCLUDE:
SPIN: square card
I love grids and I love squares, so elegant wedding card is right up my alley. I used an old gel print, cut into squares and then die cut my letters from the squares. Then I used an embossing folder on the square letters to add interest and dimension.
I heat embossed clear stripes onto a black square panel for my background - it's subtle but the embossing shines through the holes in the squares.
I popped up the square letters and instead of using the letter centres, I strategically placed some golden illusion gems to act as the centres and add some sparkle.
Then I used the letters themselves to make another card! Gotta love a 2-for-1!

Terrific case. Love how you got two cards for the price of one, so to speak. Fabulous technique. I like how you used gems for the openings in the e and o. Looks great!
Ardyth..this is Jean ..4littlekittens..wow, wow and omg! I feel like I missed my wedding day!! See what I get for never learning the " communication, computer something, something system" here. I was just die cutting away at Christmas cards. If I knew I'd have thrown a party and hired a sky writter!
You can't imagine how very much this means to me ( and I missed it)
I can't thank you enough..I truly am thrilled and honored.
Now, I don't even know if you'll even see this post..again thank you..Jean ( dumb as a post on computers) krainin
