BE SURE TO CLICK ON THE PHOTO FOR A LARGER VIEW!!
I had a great time playing with all of my new things from Scrappin Deals N Steals!! I used the Cuttlebug Highlights technique from the 10/08 Technique Junkies newsletter—it’s very light on the gold panels, but I thought it was just enough to add some interest on this very busy card.
The Gold frame looking object in the center is a big gaudy plastic belt buckle which is part of an upcoming package over at Scrappin Deals N Steals. Groovy! Since it had a bar across the center of it (for a belt to thread through) I layered my black paper piece on top of it. Instant frame!!
I made a custom brad with a Chatterbox Easy Brad Maker, also from Scrappin Deals N Steals. What a fun tool!! It comes with 3 circle punches in varying sizes to fit the three brad blanks that come with the tool. The flourishes around the brad are pieces from a Cuttlebug die, as well as the small fleur-de-lis in the outer corners. The gem flourishes are from Scrappin Deals N Steals too! How did I ever craft before I found that place? LOL
Cardstocks are from The Paper Temptress.
I hope you’ve enjoyed the project and thanks for stopping by!!

Gold and black elegance is the perfect title for this gorgeous piece of art! You do the TRI Shutter card proud. Each panel is another delight to the eye!
`Another amazing card Kathie, I always love your work. I love making those tri-shutter cards too. I have even made the in ATC size. It is very elegant. Thanks for sharing.
Hugz, Judi
this is really fabulous! definitely elegant.
Amazing!
I can't decide which I like better the black and gold tri-shutter or the big card for big love. They are both beautiful. Which papers are you using on these two from Paper Temptress?
Elegance at its best. Great colors, wonderful card.
