I pulled out my Big Paper Hugs die along with some patterned and pale pink papers. I already had two card bases (medium pink and black) in my stash, so I pulled those out, too.
I cut a piece of pale pink CS to 4" X 5 1/4". Centering the die on this piece, I ran it through my Big Shot. When I rmoved the letters, I made sure I also kept the interior pieces for the letters B, P, A and R.
Then the fun part began with first putting sheet adhesive on the backs of the two 4" x 5 1/4" pieces and adhering those to the card fronts. That left adhesive exposed in the letter cutouts. It was easy to add the floral letters to the pink CS and the pale pink letters to the floral CS.
The fronts were finished off with a few flowers glued here and there.
The inside of each card was given a stamped sentiment.
I love paper-piecing, and these cards were a form of that.
Thanks so much for stopping by, and remember to laugh--a little or a lot--every day.

Well-done, Cheryl!! I have done very little of piecing in die-cuts. Such a great effect, and great cards.
Great cards. Love the big sentiments and the addition of flower accents. I know the recepients of these cards will be cheered
Oh my gosh, cute as can be! Thanks for reminding me of this technique! Am having a great time wearing my grandma hat in sunny California! Will be home the 23rd. Will try to drop in every couple of days! Hugs…
Oh what a great die - and then you pieced the little pieces back in - what patience and talent. Love these cards.
Well that was a very clever idea Cheryl! These would be sure to make anyone smile!
