Krafty Chicks challenge #842 - CAS

Good morning lovely friends and welcome to my little corner of blogland. It's time for a new challenge over at Krafty Chicks challenge and this week we are on Week 3; and as always the theme is 'CAS (clean and simple)' and Diane is our hostess. Now we know that CAS is subjective but generally it's lots of open space (doesn't have to be white), no embellishments (or very few) and an uncluttered design. It can be a difficult design to pull off but we hope you will take on the challenge and come over and join in the fun with us.

I saw a fun card on Pinterest and decided to give it a go.  I changed up the layout ever so slightly and also the colour scheme but the shapes are the same.  I think it turned out great and I hope you like it too. 

Here is my card:

A closer look at the details:

Plus I decorated the inside:

I began by cutting a white panel 4" x 5 1/4" and also a second white panel which I die cut with a stitched rectangle.  I decided to use the colour scheme on the current AAA Cards challenge and cut my coloured card to 1" squares and 3/4" squares and used a punch to round 2 of the corners which made them look a bit like a petal.  I added the 'petals' with liquid glue onto the stitched rectangle, starting at the top left corner and working down towards to the bottom right corner, leaving a slightly gap in the middle for my sentiment, which I stamped in black ink.  I adhered both the panels together and added it to my card base using double sided tape.  For the inside I cut two more white panels and 4 more squares from coloured card.  I added the 'petals' in the bottom left corner with liquid glue and stamped the sentiment in the centre with black ink.  I added the panels onto my card base using double sided tape.  

I would like to enter my card into the following challenges:
