neat and tangled release - receding blocks

Howdy and welcome to the last day of special programming! Today is the wrap up of the June Neat & Tangled release countdown and today I'm sharing my creations with the new cover plate! Today is graphic goodness pure.

Meet Receding Blocks. I tried to keep things traditional, but with a modern touch. First off, a feminine version.

First I dry embossed my cardbase with the cover plate die. In this photo you can see how amazing that texture looks. Like a fluffy comforter!

I added a strip of washi and a thin strip of inked CS along the bottom. I like this look but it's more often cuz my cardbases are from A4 size paper here in Germany, and a bit longer than the cover plate die size ;)  I die cut the piece with the triangles and masked it with tape and inked bold stripes onto it. Adhered it with foam squares. Tucked a heat embossed sentiment under it on the left. I added a bloom - heat embossed on vellum and backed with a plain white die cut piece to keep the stripes from showing through - on the right.

Navy. White. Touches of gold. Me likey.

Then I created this card using only a portion of the die cut cut with the cover plate. Went masculine on this one using black and white with a touch of blue.
