I noticed a trend on Pinterest using strips of card stock adhered to a window sheet, then cropped with a circle die. I decided to give it a try and was not disappointed. The results are fabulous. The strips of card stock were based on a color combination that I shared on Tuesday’s post.

Everything about this card is just stunning. Can’t wait to try this exact card, Mary!
Mary, I love your card! I took a class some time ago and we did one of those “floating” designs on an acrylic circle and a different style with the strips raised on foam dimensionals. It makes such a fun card!
I love this wonderful Fall card in those colors. It is simply elegant. Enjoy your day!
Oh MsMary,love and sooo clever, ♥️♥️♥️
hugs Frenchie ♥️♥️♥️
What a dramatic design!
Thanks for showcasing such a great technique with the strips on window sheet and then die cutting. Can’t wait to try it with other shapes. TFS
Love it! Those colors are amazing and I had not seen or heard about this technique.
