The only stamp set used for this card is Easter Friends, #157737 from the January to June 2022 Mini Catalogue.  The Pool Party square is created with Blending Brushes and the little chick is coloured with Stampin' Blends Markers. 

The little gems in the grass hopefully look like early spring flowers peeking up, (can you tell I'm looking forward to an early spring :)  They are from the 2021-2023 In Color Jewels #15557 pack. 

When I first saw this sketch I thought of creating a little square with blending brushes, and I knew I wanted to use the chick.  However it took some thinking to figure out the horizontal shape as per the sketch.  I tried ribbon, considered twine and then settled on lines created with the Simply Scored® Scoring Tool #122334.  Yep, I think last weeks sketch idea was still rolling around in my head - ha.   The scoring blade on the Paper Trimmer does work, and sometimes is the best depending on where the lines are on the card.  For this card tho' I wanted a deeper impression and the card layer lined up perfectly on the scoring tool.
