Thanks, Michelle, for a this week's challenge. I love, love our designer series paper and use it all the time. Also, Cat's DSP list was an easy way to make this challenge work.
I used wintergreen dsp and CASEd 88keys' blocking idea. She does the best blocking; so, I've used her as inspiration several times.
Once you have the dimensions down, this technique is very easy. And using our 1-1/4" punch makes all the squares uniform. On the inside of the card I also punched 4 smaller squares to tie this all together.
One thing I noticed with our textured cs, which the soft sky is, is that the card doesn't have the same "stiffness" like our regular cs. So, I just cut out another quarter sheet of regular cs in the same color and placed it inside. That gives the card some stability without shouting: "I'm here!"
Thanks for looking.

I love how this card has a lot going on, but the colors you used keeps it all together and flowing nicely. Great layout and choice of patterned papers!
