I was delighted by an invitation from a friend to Play Cards - yes, it can work this way, too!
Shirley Bampton a.k.a. Shirley B's Stamping Stuff, and The Bee's Knees, designs sets for Stamplorations. I once used her fun Poinsettia set for a split-four technique, in a much different, non-Christmas way - perhaps you'll remember it? If not you can see it here. Shirley loved it so much that she made her own - it caused quite a bit of shopping I hear! Yay!
Shirley invited me to play with another of her sets - yes, please! We only wish we could do it in the same place!
We're using The Bee's Knees: Carved Flowers today - totally reminds me of 'potato stamping' in elementary school. Stamplorations, and Shirley have done all the work for us!
Shirley - at your suggestion: using slimline style - I've made four slimline minis - this is my 6.5 x 11 inch panel - you'll see that I've scored it to indicate my sections:
And a closer look at each, with the inks used:

Love these bright, beautiful cards, Michele!! What a great idea to make 4 mini slimline cards this way. Have a wonderful holiday weekend!!
The flowers are adorable but oh those ink colors....wow! I may have to invest!
Absolutely LOVE these! Cheers :)
How fun, I love that Shirley invited you to play cards! And play cards you did! Aces girl, ACES!
I love how you got 4 mini slimline CAS design cards out of one stamped 8 1/2" x 11" Piece of cardstock. You were so creative with all the stamps from Shirley Bees "Carved flowers" set, which I have:-) You have really inspired me and so has Shirley's Slimline cards been so creative. What a fun time for both of you:-) TFS my friend. Love and Hugs...Nancy Can't wait to see you playday again next month:-)

Michele, these are absolutely wonderful, and I’m so going to CASE your versions. I love those pink flowers, I love how you even thought of a snail from those stamps, I love the bright colours, and I’m so glad we did this. Can’t wait till next month 😁
I've actually met Shirley and what a lovely and talented lady! I just love what you did with those stamps... Fabulous!!
I remember potato stamping! But I could NEVER get my potato stamp anything as wonderful as these bright and cheery flowers. SO fun and happy. So glad for you to be invited to play and then create such fun beauties. Hugs!
Oh my! These are so fun, Michele! I LOVE how you've used these stamps and turned them into 4 cards with a different way to do the split! Such bright and fun colors too! I may have to do some shopping now...
What a FUN set to use, and your panel of bold and bright flowers made 4 FABULOUS mini slimline cards Michele...Shirley must have been thrilled when she saw what you did with her stamps! I must admit I never thought of doing the split four horizontally like you did but I LOVE how it turned out and will definitely have to try it out!! Wonderful cards my friend!! Hugs. :0)
After seeing the stamps, I'm even more impressed, my friend! What a wonderful use of them! That little snail is the bomb!
Oh I just LOVE these bright, fun, bold flowers! The inks are so fabulous, and I love the way you stamped all the flowers then cut them from one sheet. What a great idea!
Nice! I love this technique of multiple cards - you rocked it :)
I'm with Bonnie on this one, Michelle. I looked at the stamp set and drew a blank but you made four terrific cards. So whimsical and fun.
What a fabulous set of cards Michele. So fun and bright perfect for summer time.
Love all of these, gorgeous vibrant colours finished perfectly with that black detail xx
How fun and happy these mini slimline cards are, Michele! Love that little snail you created!

Wow, awesome, Michele! Love the technique and your color choice is just fabulous! Very cute cards
Though I need more practice, love this technique. Works in everr way, too, A2, slimline and mini slimlive. Tried to get these flowers, now that I know how to use them properly. Signed up for their next shipment. Gorgeous cards, each and every one.
These are some of the freshest, fun and fabulous slims I've seen this month! Your CP inks sure helped this set soar! 💕
Michele these cards are so fabulous! What a fun set that Shirley wanted you to play with!
Bold, vibrant and so fun, Michele ... with a touch of whimsy ... and your gorgeous style! You showcased Shirley's set beautifully ... all four are lovely ... though I guess you know I'm going to be especially taken with the one featuring the escargot! Hugs, Anita :)
Bold, vibrant, creative and fun and I love how you've split them into four amazing cards x. Always fun to create with friends x.
WOW stunning cards.
