Diagonal Background


Good morning all!  Next up is the Diagonal Background from the Filigree Artistry Collection.  Shown here, cut in vellum against a white card background, you can see how lovely and delicate it looks!  The cut out areas are perfect for using thin strips of card or ribbon through them for an incredible look.  This border can easily be cut into strips to create a different look or used as a border, the possibilities are endless!  Shown here with the small side edge of the previous die, you can see how nicely it works with the other dies in the collection.  I would love to be able to send this one to a good home so please leave your comments on this post so you are entered into the drawing to win it!  This is the final post for the Filigree Artistry Collection, but I will be back at noon with some new Frames and Tags to share with you.  All for now, Sue x

  7. Good Morning Sue and all
    Such a beautiful card this morning and loving the gentle detail in the Diagonal Background from the Filigree Artistry Collection. I can see this being one of them go to dies for backgrounds and love how you have used the edge from squares and crosses to finish the edges.

Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, an amazing creation to greet us on this beautiful morning, yes I can just imagine a thin ribbon running through it, although I do like the white with the white vellum too, can you imagine with the glitter behind it, what blitzy creations can be made. Oh and I know just the right home for this one. Good Luck everyone.
