This is a first for me on Virtual Stamp Night and my first Tri-shutter technique (and I tried the Rock 'n Roll technique on the medallion) so I was a bit intimidated before starting. First of all the directions for the Tri-shutter is awesome. To save time, I used K&Company card stock that was two sided - this saved a lot of time trying to come up with complimentary card stock. I used a stamp from Unity Stamp Company (I think from August KOM). I used 2 colors of ink (first SU ruby red) and I rolled edges in SU chocolate chip. Really like this technique too.
Bottom line - if I can make this card ANYONE can. So if you have been intimidated, don't let it scare you.
TFL, and let me know what you think.

So pretty! I love the "shabby chic" look you have going with the papers, and the rock-and-roll technique fits in perfectly with the shabby chic mode, too! And you're right, the tri-shutter cards look a lot trickier than they really are! You did a great job!
