Here is a wonderful layout that you can use in numerous ways. My upline, Brian King, gave us a challenge using four squares to make a card. There were some wonderful ideas and cards shared in the team. I am sharing mine with you today. I hope you will give it a try and share with me your design.

Papers

This is the second post in a row that I have begun with the Papers. In both instances, that lead to the stamps and colors used. Today the color is what I used as the catalyst. My squares are Misty Moonlight, Blueberry Bushel, Azure Afternoon, and Balmy Blue. For the focal image, I chose the Mixed Up Patterns Designer Series Paper in a Pool Party that has a white design.

The squares are each 1 3/4 X 1 3/4. I used removable tap to adhere them together on the back so I could stamp and then move them to the Basic White layer. To go along with the Black stamping, I used Basic Black for the card base.

Stamps & Dies

The Fragrant Layers Bundle was used for the all of the stamping and Die cutting. I stamped the large floral on the DSP using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. Plus I stamped and Die cut the single flower image. (There are fillers to the these flowers. However by using the DSP, the filler was not needed for coloring the inside of the flowers)

On the squares I also stamped the large image across the center to have the leaves in the appropriate places. I decided not to color those and went on the add a few of the single flower stamped on the squares as well. The Die cut DSP image was added to the squares with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

To complete the card, I moved the squares to a Basic White layer measuring 4 X 5 1/4. The squares are placed at the top with equal border on top and each side. The sentiment is stamped using Azure Afternoon Ink and layered onto a Basic Black background. To finish I added the extra flower on the edge of the sentiment.

Extras

The only extra today is Bling! These White and Secret Sea dots are from the Moody Palette Glossy Dots. I love the colors. There are holes in the center of the flowers like they were intended for the dots to fit right inside.
