This ATC was done to experiment with textures. I took a piece of black & white printed dotty paper and put it through the Big Shot with a TH embossing folder.....this definately reminded me of a miniature bedquilt.. I then swiped over the raised squares with moonlight white Brilliance inkpad and dried with a heat gun before trimming to size. This was stuck onto a card blank and the edges rounded with a corner rounder punch.
I then took some various sized square punches and punched out squares in gold paper and some mulberry paper with gold flecks and applied these with glue as shown. Then I applied three glue dots and heat embossed these with gold embossing powder. I used a white opaque pigment pen to outline the squares and write the text. The ATC was edged in burnt sienna Colorbox chalk ink and some diamond Stickles glitter glue was applied thinly to highlight some of the background squares.
