The Paper Players Challenge has a great CAS sketch this week, so I paired it with the CC to create a 70th anniversary card for an aunt and uncle. I built a plaid background with the 3 main colors: Watermelon Wonder, Pumpkin Pie and Crushed Curry (dessert option is to add green). The happy die was cut 3 times and layered up to create more dimension. I took some liberty with the 'any shape' element and went with a floral collage instead of a single shape. Once again, my mighty MISTI came to the rescue and made it easy to line up the sentiment via the grid lines and then allowed me to stamp it twice to get a crisper image.

Beautiful card. Great use of the colors. Your card has a more masculine plaid with a more feminine bouquet of flowers blended into a lovely design. Congrats to your Aunt and Uncle for their 70th anniversary! You have a gorgeous card to send to them. TFS
