Sandy here with you today, filling in for Alison.  Without a doubt, my favorite stacker is the French Flair and I really love the new Horizon French Flair Boutique Stackers released last month.  I began my card with the largest of the French Flair Classic Stackers; die cut from white card stock.  Next came the largest of the Horizon French Flairs; die cut from red card stock.  Using the next smallest French Flair Classic, I added a DP panel to my red French Flair.  Using the middle size of the Horizon French Flair, I die cut another red panel and using the coordinating French Flair Classic, added another DP panel. 


I die cut a Circle Classic Stacker from white card stock; adding a green Sophie's Heart Mini doily.  Then I die cut Poinsettia Strip from red card stock and assembled my flower.  I staggered each layer to give it a full look.  I also pinched each petal along the embossed center line.  Finished size is 5 5/8" square.

Hi and Good Morning Everyone, Alison here today :)

Well I was feeling bright and summery when I made this card, and I also fancied a bit of a challenge!  I dont do CAS very often (or very well!) and I also never play with orange!  So this ticks both of my 'out of my comfort zone' boxes. lol.

I started out with a 6 x 6 inch scalloped blank card base and layered First Edition papers onto white American Crafts Cardstock.

I then placed the Dutch Scalloped Square frame over my dotty paper and then added the scalloped square and square die cuts.  I cut the gorgeous Sophias Heart mini doily for my centrepiece and added the sentiment on top.  For a finishing touch I made 2 daisies from the Daisy Flower strip and topped off with a little card candi.

Simples!
