I created this card a few weeks ago for a CASE study challenge. For this one I paired 3/4″ x 3 1/4″ wide strips of different colored blue Bazzill cardstock were adhered to a slightly bigger white base. Clouds were cut out with Flat Bottom Cloud Die-namic dies.
The layer was adhered to the card base, a 3 1/2″ x 11″ piece of Neenah Solar White cardstock, folded in half. The bottom corners were rounded. A sentiment from Simon Says Stamps On Edge stamp set was stamped underneath the colored cardstock layers in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink.
White cardstock was cut with the Simon Says Stamp die Always and adhered right on the edge of the colored cardstock edge. Black Doodlebug Twine was tied right under that edge and topped with a button. Faux Stitching was added to the colored cardstock with a white gel pen. Three rhinestones from a Sleek Strips Silver Rhinestones finish off the card.
Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a wonderful day.
Hugs and smiles

Hello Beate,

cool idea for the background and like how you did the sentiment!
This is so highly creative Beate! Love all those spliced together colors, then die cut out!!! Brilliant!
so cool! love the color block background. fabulous card, Beate!
I love this card and the previous card using the dies.. I’ve tried but the die I use didn’t work, it was the snowflake one, I use a different die that was too fussy, I need to try again. Been cleaning too much.
This is one of my favorite (recent) cards of yours. I love the colors of the papers and cutting the clouds between the layers gives it such a great look. Thanks for the idea!
Wow, you do some amazing work with dies! The layers of paper and the clouds are so lovely!
This is such a cute idea for a card!! I might have to CAS this!! LOVE it!
Beautiful colour combination Beate. This would be a great idea to CASE for a male card. Thanks for sharing
I like how you cut the clouds out with the dies. I can see that technique working for so many different shapes!
Another really CAS card!
Love these cut out clouds and the simple but striking design!
Love the colours of this one
Lovely idea! You are always such an inspiration!!
I love this card- the color combo is fantastic and the clouds are the perfect pairing for it!
So pretty. I love the colors
Great card! Love the idea with the negative die cut!
I love how you’ve stacked the papers and the use of dies on this card. Very nice.
I love how you have used the negative space of the dies on this wonderful card! your creativity is always such an inspiration! thank you! 🙂
You are always so creative even with the simplest of designs. I really like the way you did your clouds.
This is adorable! I am always make A2 cards but love your 3 1/2 x 11 cards so my goal for today is to make a card using those dimensions…off to craft!
Those clouds are so cool. Neat idea. I also like the variety of colored strips you used. It’s a beautiful card. Want to do more of those cutouts on my cards. Thanks for the inspiration.
