Hello all, When I tell you this you are going to laugh! I decided to use my quilt square by DRS (because I think maybe it will be new to Cheryl) so I found a box of squares and circles (the exact same size as my stamp) that I bought about 15 or so years ago for scrapbooking...(I don't know, something about using them to put sticker letters on for titles on my Srapbook pages???) So I fixed my Misti up, even making a border out of cardboard inside the corner to keep the squares and stamp away from the very edge. So I got my stamp squared up, stamped all my squares then stamped my rounds (I thought I would use the rounds inside the squares). Went through all of that only to cut all of them into pieces...Hee! I'm such a knucklehead!
So anyway, my diamond quilt squares are hanging off the edge in front BUT I offset the fold so that it only hangs off the front not the whole card...I intend to send this to our miss CherylQuilts!! I didn't want it to be damaged. That is why the 3 photos...to show how the card looks closed, hanging over, and inside.
Oh, I just thought of something...I should put a tiny button on each white square!!! Yes, I will do that!
Thanks for looking!

What a delightful card and so perfect for Cheryl, Robin! Love the patchwork and all the tick marks resembling quilting. Your scripture verse is wonderful!

Awesome color, and layout. Lovely sentiment. You are gonna be put in the tardy party room with Nancy and me. Lol. I say your mailbox can only hold so many cards at a time and you need time to look at all them, so Cherly will have time to savor the card.

I loved your story mate, we can be knuckleheads together - I'd have done the same thing LOL. The end result is perfection on paper. The design is fabulous, the colours are beautiful and the words are so perfect for our wonderful Cheryl. Gorgeous card my friend.
