Another bit of crafty play happened over the weekend. I wanted to try making a card with small die cuts and here's what I came up with!
I chose colors of card stock in three shades of pink. Also using some white I cut several flowers of each color. I needed some help lining them up into a grid pattern so I reached for the Birthday Blitz stamp set (SSS) that has the curving parallel lines. I stamped them in pale gray onto the card front and the square which has foam for added dimension. The bit of movement adds interest to the CAS design. Tiny clear sequins were added to each flower center.
This card design is not my usual go-to but I think I should try new styles more often. It's what makes this craft so satisfying! The sentiment is also from the SSS set, I really like that one.
I hope you're having a wonderful week.
I was inspired to play with the sketch at Just Add Ink
and Seize the Birthday - CAS with Dies
I'll be back again soon! In the meantime ...

I like the movement, Cindy! This is really cute!
Oh this is so very pretty! I love the array of flowers and bling you have given your card as well as the background wave lines - so cool. Thanks for joining us at Just Add Ink this week!
This is such a pretty card Cindy. The continuous flow beside and behind your focal panel not only looks terrific but highlights the tiny flowers and bling so beautifully. Thanks for joining us at Just Add Ink.
What a lovely design! Unique and fun!
You were very clever with this design, Cindy! I love the wavy stamp and it made a nice guide for your cute flowers and sequins. The separate center panel scooches it up a notch, too. It is definitely fun to try something different!
Gorgeous card Cindy. Love the coltinuation of the stripes rfom your background to your top layer. Thanks for joining us at Just Add Ink, Tristan - DT
Your stamped wavy lines were a brilliant choice!!! Just the right amount of "movement". Beautifully done Cindy! Thanks for playing with Seize the Birthday!
Such a fun layout and creative idea for the background. Turned into a lovely card. Thanks for playing at Seize the Birthday,
LOVE this design with the curve going over your center panel. So creative and adds to the fun of those pretty flowers! xx
What a wonderfully eye-catching card! I might have thought of a row of small flowers, but it never would have occurred to me to do the curved lines and it's fabulous!
What a cool card! Love the fun layout and cheerful colours. The singular flower is a great touch. Thanks for playing along with us at Seize the Birthday.
