Anyway, this card I made for one of our challenge cards which was a layout using the diamond pattern with the strip behind it. The color combo of this card came completely from the ribbon colors. I am forever trying to find ribbon to go with whatever card I have going, so this time I picked the ribbon first and worked the card around it - what a concept! I added some depth and texture to the CB'd piece by using the Canvas b/g stamp on it after I had run it through the CB. The central image (diamond strip) is popped up. The charm on this one says "smile" - I also made another one where the charm said "celebrate" and that one was sent to Diana, my bestest friend since high school, for her birthday tomorrow (yes, it will be late cause I know you remember my procrastination issue!). So hopefully Diana won't see this for a while! :)

I love this cute set and you made an absolutely fabulous design with it! This is great! So creative! Thanks for reminding me about this wonderful little set!
I was recently directed to your blog and have been checking it out. I love this layout- is there a pattern somewhere for the diamond strip, or did you just make it up yourself? If there's a pattern or a link you can share, I'd love to have it!
