I probably got this die about 5 years ago, thinking that it would make for some quick CAS birthday cards. After several attempts to use it, I finally made this card with it. Okay, but not one of my faves, that's for sure.
Fast forward to now. Pulled out the die and was all ready to put on the "purge" pile, but decided to give it another whirl before I did that. Well, it is still going on the purge pile, but I was able to come up with a few cards I liked using it before it goes bye bye.
For my CAS620 CASE, I stepped it up, while keeping it CAS:
- Changed colors, changed to shimmer card stock
- Stitched detail around the edge of my window
- Mat between the focal and the window edge
- Left a thin edge of my card base showing for a more finished look.
I'm also submitting this for the Seize the Birthday Challenge (just the Anything Goes - no dessert for me this week)

Purge pile? Oh no, I think it is awesome. Love the big letters.

Such a cute birthday card! Love the die you used but understand, when your style changes, you should give to someone who will love it more. Thank you for playing with us at Happy Little Stampers Die Challenge and hope you can come back soon.
I think this is a very versatile design and perfect for any gender. These happen to be some of my favorite colors. Love the card. Thanks so much for playing along with the die challenge at Happy Little Stampers!
