Caitlin

Hello there my crafty friends!  I am continuing on with both the Celtic Collection and the same colour theme too! LOL  Next up is the Caitlin die set.  Caitlin is also a bit more tag sized, but still makes a great focal element.  She will be perfect for smaller sized cards though.  As you can see from this sample, Caitlin can be used to create a lovely background too.  There is a lovely You Tube video I have filmed that uses this die to create a larger focal element so if you like your larger cards, she will also work well for that!  Leave your message in the comment section at the bottom of the blog, then meet me back here at 6pm for the final post of the day!  All for now, Sue x

    Another must have for my collection. I have a granddaughter named Kaitlyn so the name on this die is very close. I realize you used the original spelling but our Kaitlyn was made up to honor both of her grandmothers as she was our first born grandchild.

    Hello Cait!

    Very interesting how the Celtic collection is inspired by but doesn’t copy the traditional Celtic designs like you see taken from design books.

    Cait looks like fun.
