Ocean Waves Background Layering Die

Hi bloggers!  While this is the last of the Triple Layering dies, I thought it would be nice to share it with the mermaids!  Announcing the Ocean Waves Layering die.  You actually saw this die in both of the previous mermaid posts (doesn't it work great with them!), but I had to give it it's own post.  This die is great too as just a background for any of your non aqua related cards as it can easily pass as just a wavy sort of design too.  Add glitter or micro beads to make it come to life with texture and sparkle!  This die is the perfect fit for the Triple Column Background die if you want a pretty decorative frame to go around it too.  Just leave your comment on this post and I will automatically enter your name into the drawing to win this one!  The final post today is at 6pm.  Guess what, it is sort of themed too! LOL  All for now, Sue x

    This background die works so well with the mermaids but for boy surfers it will work equally well as well as just a pattern xx

    Hi Sue. Although I am not sure that I would be able to make use of the dies in the previous two post I am sure this one would work well for seascapes, hills or even deserts. It may even be great just as a background if you change the colours.

    What a stunning card to show of the Ocean waves die which does work beautifully with the mermaids. I keep trying to work out if you have paper pieced some of the colours. I think this die would look beautifully with the Luna paste to add the shine of the sea.
    I am now starting to struggling which I love the best.
