Congrats

Hello and welcome back!  The Congrats mini expressions die is more of a stand alone die than the others, but there are still quite a few sentiments in the Big Ideas stamp set that will work with it very well.  Shown here, I decided to allow it to say it all and paired it with one of the die sets already shown during the launch.  It is a lovely, highly readable font, that will surely be the focal element on any of your cards.  If this one appeals to you, then you know what to do!  I would love to hear what you think of the launch so far too.  There is still a bit more to come but I won't hold you to a favourite if you share it with me!  LOL  We have one more Fabulous  Mini expression to share with you today and it will be up on the blog at 6pm.  All for now, Sue x

    Hi Sue. This is a lovely card made using some gorgeous dies !!! I do love your mini "Congrats" expression die. Again, another beautiful font and I do love that you have designed the shorter version of this word. Sometimes I think the great big long "Congratulations" is just to much to put on a card and sometimes it seems very formal. It is so much nicer to have the shorter version that I can add to add to my crafty stash too. Great for making cards for younger people who have a special ocassion to celebrate. Thank you Sue. Lots of love from Tres X X X
