IC603 took us to a Pinterest location filled wtih scrapbooking pages. While I am a scrapbooker, I haven't had the opportunity to scrapbook in quite a while so card making is my paper crafting outlet now. I had difficulty choosing just one pin, narrowed it down to three and my oldest DD selected this one today: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/17732992256131782/
After selecting my paper, I hand cut the diamonds (quadrilateral) and then laid them out. For those who need absolute precision in their cards, this card will drive them nuts! Before adhering them, I stamped random ones with a couple of the small images from Elementary Elegance and the words from Just my Type.
I selected this sentiment about doing your little bit of good because there are little bits of paper diamonds decorating the card. I colored the sentiment so I could highlight words with the red ink.
Random diamonds were "stitched" with ink and doodled upon. For a final touch, a few sequins in a couple of colors were attached.
I like how it turned out though it isn't computer precise. I give it a 3 just because of the time it took.
Thanks for looking.

Love that you added images from E.E. on your diamond shapes. I am impressed that you hand cut these. And I did not know that diamonds are called parallelograms, lol.....That sentiment is perfect for this.
