Mini Background


Hello bloggers!  Welcome to the final day of the blog die launch.   I have wanted to add a few designs to my Mini Background category for awhile and have finally done so!  Shown here, the Pierced Roses Mini Background creates a beautiful card which is suitably for some many occasions.  I just love the way it has turned out and look forward to showing you more samples made with this die as well.  If you like what you see, let me know and you will be entered into the drawing to win this one as well.  I will be back at 12 noon with the next blog post so until then!  All for now, Sue x
