Would you look at that pretty spring plaid! When I dug into my plethora of patterned papers, I had one that was a very close match! This is my card for our Just Us Girls Wild Card Week. Take a look...
When I stared making this card, I was thinking to myself "Oh boy, I don't know about this one." But by the time I had finished it I was thinking "Oh, I like this one!" Later that evening, I prepared myself for the response I expected from my hubby. You see, the man does not like plaid. When I turned the card around, I saw this pleased look on his face and he actually liked it! I think he was as shocked as I was!
The mini slimline dies create a few pieces when cut. I used one to frame more of that cute plaid paper. This card is smaller ~ a teeny mini slimline! I colored and popped on a sweet POD bunny that my friend Marcia sent me. Yes, he liked this one too!
These are the supplies I used: Pretty Pink Posh Wild Rose stamps & dies, Pinkfresh Studio Mini Slimline dies & sentiment. Purple Onion Designs - Chloe
Thanks for popping in!
Let's go check out what the DT has to share!

Fun plaid flowers -- Love that cute bunny card too.
glad your hubby liked the plaid flowers because they are a really fun element on your lovely card. your second card is beyond adorable with that sweet little bunny.
Lisa... am LOVING the plaid paper you chose! Using it as a flower base was brilliant. How could your hubby not love it!
Think I have that paper, too! These are both beautiful! I'm especially drawn to the teeny mini with the beautiful scalloped frame & sweet bunny!
I LOVE the plaid! Especially the flower card! WOWZER!
I laughed at your post today, Lisa! I was going to be disappointed if hubby didn't like it. It came out so well and I wish I had thought of it. Your second card is as cute as can be too! Way to hit this challenge out of the park!
Those plaid flowers are adorable, Lisa. I love the gem centers. The remnant pieces made a great background for the darling little bunny.

Both cards are fabulous Lisa! I don't know if it's the colorful plaid pattern or just your sweet eye for design, but these are fun! Fun! Looks like I've missed quite a few of your beautiful makes. Just played "catch-up" on your blog. I like your style!! Hope you're keeping warm.
So cute ~ Both cards are adorable Lisa.
Two fabulous cards Lisa! I'm kind of obsessed with the plaid flowers!!
Oh, Lisa, these are both incredible cute - YES, the perfect plaid! Never should one shred of this paper be wasted so good for you finding the perfect sized card to fit!

Your post has me smiling, Lisa! Because I show my cards to my husband after I make them too. Your man has good taste (besides picking YOU), your plaid cards are adorable! I love the flowers so much!
Both cards are just so pretty and colourful Lisa. Love the plaid paper you found and the cute bunny takes the cake.
LOVE, love, LOVE, Lisa! What a fantastic idea to stamp on the patterned paper, because it's no surprise to me that it turned out fabulous. Your leftovers made a pretty card as well, so great when we get to use those right away
I think your plaid creations are so fun Lisa, I'm not surprised the man love you slimline plaid number--it's gorgeous!
Well of course you made not one but two lovely cards! I love that plaid for the flowers and that little cutie Chloe would certainly brighten anyone's day Lisa! So sweet!
I LOVE those fabulous plaid flowers and perfect placement on this slimline beauty! Your bunny card is adorable, and that plaid works perfectly for that little darling. Your coloring is amazing.
I would never have thought to use the pretty plaid for flowers and what a beautiful effect and so glad DH liked it!. A darling of a second card x. Both cards are so pretty and really beautiful x.
Gorgeous plaid flowers and an adorable bunny card! Dazzled and delighted by both!

Your cards are amazing! I love the flowers, but I have to admit the bunny card is my favorite! It's so sweet! But what a great idea to stamp and die cut the flowers from the plaid paper!
I love those fun flowers! It would never have occurred to me to use that much plaid on a card - but you've done and still kept it a totally clean and fresh card. LOVE it!
Fabulous and fun plaid!! Just love how you used this!
I can surely tell from all of these beautiful akes that you are thinking spring. This plaid paper is wonderful, and I so love the way you used them. The flowers are fabulous and your mini slimline is so sweet. Love them both.
