Hello all! Let me introduce Carol to you. This die set has the feel of flowing snow drifts in winter with a snowflake inspired centre yet nothing is particularly overtly Christmassy about her. She looks great done in any colour and works so well with other dies (I just love the Frosty Snowflake corner with her, don't you?) Let me know what you think of Carol, won't you? Don't forget to use the Pinit Pinterest button too! It has been placed at the bottom of each blog post for you. At 3pm the next post will appear. All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue. I agree, this die could be used for any time of the year, but it does work particularly well with the snowflake corner.

Very versatile die-set. Gorgeous.
Hi Sue, Carol is definitely an all-year round die but she does indeed look lovely with the Frosty Snowflake Corner. I'm thinking cutting the centre in red and adding a few poinsettias would make it even more festive.
Frances
Beautiful dies and a very apt name for Christmas. Carol is lovely.

What’s not to love? My favorite “family” of dies are the lady tags and frames. This set is especially intricate and beautiful.

I like this die set as it is festive enough without being too season specific, which would stop you using it all year. It looks soooo pretty.
