Well, it's that time again.........another challenge at Addicted to CAS. This week your hostess is the lovely Harriet from Alley Cat Cards and the word she has chosen is:
Geometry - the branch of mathematics concerned with the properties and relations of points, lines, surfaces, solids, and higher dimensional analogs.
Geometric - 1. of or relating to geometry, or according to its methods. 2. (of a design) characterized by or decorated with regular lines and shapes.

Hmm mm, I thought!!! I was never very good at maths at school and didn't think I had anything to match this challenge, so went ahunting on the web and came up with the following fantastic image......can you guess who it is???? lol
I printed out the image on my laser printer and then gold foiled it. I then used some hexagon dies to cut it out and layered it up. The sentiment is computer generated and I used the smaller dies. I've embossed the square card blank with Craft Concepts Stained Glass e/f and added a ribbon. I took several photos of this but it seemed whichever way I took it, it either glared with the gold foiling or just looked dull, so I am afraid this was the best one.
Can't wait to see your creations. Enjoy.
Happy crafting.

Amazing card Karen and i was convinced it was a stamp and was going to ask who made it until I read your post. Do you have the foiling machine ? I was thinking of getting one but then I have to buy a laser printer too. The detail is absolutely amazing. Hope you are enjoying your holiday.
