I focused on Karen's:
-masculine feel
-dark colour with metallic accents
-diagonal sentiment
I changed:
-technique
-layout
-pattern of metallic accents
I cut out the new Stitched Plaid Cover Plate from A Jillian Vance Design with Catherine Pooler Smoke cardstock and then a partial one from MFT Stamps Sparkline Silver cardstock so that I could inlay some sparkly squares. I randomly re-filled the holes with smoke and sparkly squares for interest and texture.
I heat embossed a sentiment and popped it up using foam tape. Tomorrow is my hubby's birthday, so this is perfect for him!

Ardyth, this is such a creative card. I love die cut cover plate and how you filled some of the negative cuts. The sparkly pieces add an additional element of interest.

Wonderful case of your inspiration and the random refilling of some squares with slate and some with sparkling silver is such a great look - I like that you placed the sentiment banner on the diagonal with the interior lattice design.

I love how interesting this is even though it is monochromatic! My eye keeping travelling from little square to little square. Each time it hits a silver square it is like a present! Ha, ha, ...I know...what an imagination! Love the font on your sentiment too!
