  6. Hi Sue
    Another beautiful background die. I’m in a quandary, do I love this die more than Claire? I think they will have to share the top spot of favourites.

  7. Fabulous finish to say 3. Lots of gorgeous new collections to swoon over (obviously I have my favourite ) it would be rude not to have a favourite of the day. So much inspiration and this final die for today goes so well with your Lottie, a sweet little mixer ☺
    Thanks for another lovely day Sue and for your generosity xxx

  45. Well hello, Lottie,

    Look how the Celtic Circles become a background of diamonds instead of basketballs.

    Whenever context changes the perception of a word into something completely unintended, I say like to say that words are such monkeys. But color is a monkey too, and in this case sent the circles into the rear and brought forward the diamonds between the circles.

    I’m not a sports fan, but I live in Rhode Island, which follows all the Boston sports teams. One day it struck me that we should be pronouncing Boston’s basketball team name with a Kay rather than a See sound. Can you imagine how funny it would sound if everybody said Keltics for Boston’s basketball team? Are we calling them Keltic circles, the way the word should be pronounced? Or are we calling them Celtic, like the basketball team?

    Same with the squares. I’ll listen carefully on the video.

    Best,
    Donita from Rhode Island.
