Good Sunday morning all! Today's card is almost in the clean and simple realm as it is so quick and easy. I started with a piece of
coconut white card and embossed it with the
Art Deco Shells embossing folder for texture. I gave it a thin pink mat. Next I cut two of the
Floral Melody corners out of coconut white card. I added the larger flower in straw yellow behind and then did the rose in a dusty rose colour and the two lilies in blush card. I added the corners with mounting foam in opposite corners. I cut the
Happy Birthday mini expression die twice out of dusty rose card and glued them in a diagonal fashion in the centre of the card. White mats and layers were used to complete the card. The finished dimensions are 6 1/2" x 7 1/2" in size. All for now, D

Good morning Sue,
A beautiful card for a beautiful spring day. A gorgeous die which is already on my wishlist. X
Morning Sue, everyone is right, it really is a pretty card. Those corners are so versatile , in fact, I sometimes think it's another die that I have missed out on.
Love the subtle use of colour on your flowers. Hugs xx Pauline
Morning Sue. Pretty and clean but not one of your nicest I've seen. Was looking at this sample a hour or so ago on pinterest and couldn't make up my mind. Maybe it's because we've been spoilt by you recently with the launch. Have a lovely bright sunny happy day xxx
Lovely and elegant card

Stunning card Sue, love the pop of colour x xhazel
I like CAS cards, always useful for last minute birthdays, not sure about the colour combination, but still pretty. Thank you Sue.
Morning Sue, a very elegant and classy card, it may be simple, but does not look it. The subtle pop of colours is really beautiful. Have a great day everyone. Bx
Hi Sue - this card might be a simple one to make but what an impact it will have on the receiver. Such pretty gentle colours. Sending best wishes

love the CAS cards, and the lovely pop of colour
in the flowers,

Maybe the lilies could have used some ink so they'd hold their own with the straw and dusty rose. Or the yellow needed to be softer. Or maybe the blush was intended for the person seeing it in person. Anyway it almost didn't make its transatlantic crossing. What I love about this card is the way the corners stick out beyond the embossed area. Really nice texture, and it creates a little excitement by breaking the boundary.
I'm so happy with your April launch and the things I want to do with what I picked. I want to lock myself in my craft room and not come out until I run out of paper! Or get hungry.
May your Sunday be sunny!
Best,
Donita in R.I.
Hi Sue,
Love the lacy froth of the Floral Melody corners and must say that shells embossing folder is really growing on me...I already have the HB mini expressions die and it is so, so useful...

Morning Sue. Such a pretty card. It just goes to show how you can make a lovely card with just one die - sometimes less really is more. I do like the embossing folder too.

Good morning Sue,
A very elegant card with a little touch of colour in the flowers.Yvonne xx
Pretty card with an attractive design although I am no so sure about the colours.
I do like the way that the embossing folder takes centre stage here, all too often we only see a peak which is a shame as so many are gorgeous in their own right.
Teresa
Hi Sue
This corner die is adorable. An ideal card if you need to make one in a hurry.

Such a lovely card.
Hello Sue.
Lovely card, great dies and pretty colours. Thanks for sharing.
Best wishes
Lovely card.
This card is so lovely and delicate!
I loved this die set so much I bought it twice (one is for a gift). I love the corner floral dies and tend to use them often so a good investment and a nice gift for my crafty buddy.
Love the card and the embossing folder is beautiful and such a hit with everyone that I need to add it to my list as my cards will be elevated by using it.
Donita has the right idea...spend an entire weekend making cards. I did spend most of the last two days doing just that and I had so much fun just me and my little dog.
Everyone, enjoy your afternoon. No sun here but hoping plenty in the UK.

Hello Sue
I am not sure about this card and couldn't decide why until I read yorks butterfly comment about the embossed background.
Good Afternoon Sue. This sample is stunning and so quick to make to give to someone special I love it. Looks so fresh and clean and I am sure I will be turning to this in the next few days.
We are back from our festival and it was brilliant. Had a really good time Plenty of good country music and dancing... most of all the weather was brilliant. Sending best wishes to everyone. Kind regards Ann Toppcards Leeds
I have purchased this set of Floral Melody Corners dies. I like how your used different colors of card stock to back the larger flowers, roses and lilies. Lovely card design today. Thank you for sharing your ideas.
This is such a pretty card. Really feminine xxx
This is lovely I love how you can add colour behind the die without having to actually paper piece and therefore make it able to have dimension
Karenlotty
That looks really good. Lovely to see a lot of embossing folder.

Hi Sue, A beautiful card, the embossing folder looks fabulous and really does look like shells, and the die-cuts paper pieced look stunning, as does the Happy Birthday sentiment, this font is gorgeous.
Lots of love from Patricia xx

Beautiful card
Lovely card Sue but not one of my favourites. I think the embossing overpowers the whole card and the flowers and leaves are too heavy.
Very pretty with the small touches of colour. Thank you Sue.
A lovely delicate gentle coloured card. I really like this die Sue.
Thank you for sharing with us.
