Hi bloggers! The lovely Nina die set is up next! This set is asymmetrical, but in a symmetrical way, if that makes sense! The design has been flipped but it is not top to bottom or side to side, but rather in a crisscross sort of fashion which gives it a really unique look. I love this design as it has a sort of quirky feel to it but with elegance too. I think you will be seeing quite a lot of it in the coming weeks as it just lends it self to so many card ideas! Leave your comment and then pop back here at 6pm for the last post of the day! All for now, Sue x

Hello Sue,
I love all of the ladies in your Frames and Tags Collection. Nina is so elegant with her smooth and flowing swirls and curves. I'm amazed that you don't have a continuous headache with all of these ideas popping up and swirling around in your head, I'm just amazed at your talent. The card is such a simple design but oh so elegant.

What a lovely card today Sue. The dies you have used to make the card are fabulous and always. I like the dies you have used either side of the main one, they go so well together. I'd love to add them to my crafty stash.
