Clear Dollar Stamps Garden Of Life

I have two clean and simple cards for you today.

I've been thinking in 3's because I've been playing with a new die and this little flower from the Clear Dollar Stamps Garden Of Life digital stamp set inspired me.  It's a new digital stamp set release for the month of June.  It's a beautiful set, I've barely scratched the surface using one tiny flower for my card  and hope to use more of the set very soon!   

The die cuts three squares in a row and I was wondering if I could use it to create a digital card.  It took a little while for me to size the flowers down, flip a couple of them so they weren't all the same and put each one in just the right spot so I could cut three in a row with the die.  I've grown used to using Spellbinders dies that I can see through and this one is not so it was a challenge.  You can read more about the die here if you'd like to.

My second card was C.A.S.E.d from Dana at Dana's Dabbling Studio.  I thought her clean and simple layout was so nice I wanted to try it myself.

I used the negative part from the die cut to draw around the flowers with a Copic 0.5 Multiliner and as you can see I need practice starting and stopping.
