Hi blog friends! The next die set up on offer today is the Ivy Garden Background. This die set is unique in that you get a focal image and four corners which act as a frame around it or can be used separately. It isn't a background per se, but with the ivy theme running through it, you can easily use it as a background for your cards and other projects. I love how it looks when cut from a pixie powdered piece of card! You can see that the corners look fab even when using the negative piece too! I hope you are going to leave your comments here so you are entered into the drawing! The third post of the day is at 3pm. Please make a point of coming back by for a quick peek. All for now, Sue x

I LOVE this set. To be honest I love leaf dies and have quite a few , but there's always room for a new one!! And this is an unusual design but I think very useful. Enjoying this launch very much especially as I had a fall recently and haven't been able to do much crafting, so it's just lovely to look at all of these lovely dies and beautiful cards. Thanks Sue and love to all Sarah

Hello Sue
Sorry I haven't been commenting not because I haven't liked the dies I have but I have had very little time to myself - life getting in the way of life so to speak, never mind. I love those you have posted so far today, they are gorgeous.

This is lovely :)
Hi Sue,
Stunning! The NEEDS list is ever-growing...........
Hugs, Rose
Hi Sue, sorry I like die, but think that using all the elements together is a bit to fussy for me. I think I would have to use the elements separately. Love the corner elements of this die.
Wendyx
Beautiful die set. Can see many useful ideas for this.
Hi Sue.

Hi Sue, just like Flora this die set is something a little different for you and I love it. Using both positive and negative on the same card is probably not something I would have thought of but it works. Love the pixied card that you have used.

Afternoon Sue, a very pretty die for which I can see many uses xx
To My Wonderful Dear Friend Sue, 🥇
Well You’ve Done It Yet Again You’ve Created A Cutting Die With So Many Uses
Extremely Versatile It Can Be Transformed/Converted By Just Snipping Here/There
The Beautiful Ivy Corners Were Used With “The Bella Die Set” You Had Cut Them Out Of
“Coconut 🥥 White Foundation Card” Showing Whether You Use Colour Or Just Plain White Card
They Look Tremendous I Love The Centre Cutting Die.
Just Think Of All Those Beautiful Flowers That The Ivy Corners Will Look Terrific With..............
Take Great Care 👍My Wonderful Dear Friend Sue,
Sue, Lots Of Love Also Huge Hugs 🤗
Love From Sam xxx

Another super die so useful X
Love how you have managed to get the essence of the rhythm of the natural ivy in your design of this ivy die. As a florist, I always enjoyed using ivy in my floral pieces. There are very few greens that naturally give the fluid line that ivy does in floral arrangements. Good job!
Hello Sue
Lovely card, it is very pretty.
The die can be used in many ways so it is yet another one for the list!
