I spent yesterday playing with my new Milo Toucan die from Simon Says Stamp. I hadn't figured out how to use them on a card, until I saw Melissa's Classic Joe card, with the diagonal striped BG. The sentiment was backed with a vellum layer and the striped panel was framed with the berry sorbet card base. Here's her card that inspired me.

That's a terrific die of the toucan. Love the stripes, so cheerful, and the vellum under the words. Hugs, mf!

Sue, this is such a fun case of Melissa's card. I love the bright yellow and white background you created and how it perfectly sets off the Toucan and die cut sentiment.

Yep, those diagonal lines look super as a backdrop for that fabulous toucan die. Add that fun die cut sentiment and you have one great design for so many occasions. Love that you added that heart in black. I may need to buy that die -- well both of those dies -- now. So so fun.
