MODIFY: technique - gel plate/die cuts instead of stencils, thank you instead of love,
EXCLUDE: twine, fish tail rounded corners
I am always amazed at what happens when you blend primary colours and this card with its blended diamonds really caught my eye!
I created striped panels with my gel press and some shimmer plates, then cut them with the Catherine Pooler Cross your X's cover plate. I used the negative pieces to create the centre panel on this card, and made sure to mix up the colours for added interest.
I finished with a stacked up die cut from Avery Elle, and added small hearts cut from Inca gold cardstock, and some gems.

Wow, you can find more ways to create fabulous geometric bgs. Love the colors and interesting patterns from the gel prints. Love how you captured the inspiration card but changed it so much by closing up the gaps between the diamonds. What a different look that created. That big sentiment die is just plain fun but you added to that with those sweet hearts. Another great card.
Ardyth, this is a lovely case of Kyra's card. I love, love, love how you mixed up all the negative pieces to create such a beautiful background for the die cut Thank You! Wow!

Such a great card to case, Ardyth, and your version is super cool. Super die to use to create this effect too. I am in love with your colors and patterns on the paper you created. What a great thank you card and case. Hugz
