Layered Background Card
Hi bloggers! Today's video card is a lovely card that uses the Elsa Triple Layering Background die to make a quick and elegant card for any occasion.
The finished dimensions are 6 1/2" x 7 3/4" in size. All for now, Sue x
Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, I will check out the video later, but will certainly be trying this one, it is gorgeous, but I think I will try it in different colour combinations, yes this is definitely one I want to make.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
Hi Sue. What a gorgeous combination of colours you've used on this sample the Elsa die looks amazing and can't wait to watch your tutorial. How I envy - in a nice way all blog family that wake up to country serenades it's so beautiful. Hope your day is just as beautiful xxx
Morning Sue, a pretty card and the background is full of detail. Will have to watch the video later as the carpet fitter is due at 8.00am. Hugs xx Pauline from Teesside

Good Morning Sue and all What a stunning card this morning you have create with Elsa Triple Layering Background . I love the choice colours you have used and how the adding the black makes the card pop. Thank you for creating the video. Crafty hugs to all , Wendy
Hi Sue, love the design and Elsa is a beautiful background. Although I love teal I think I would make this in different colours as the black seems a little heavy to me, sorry.
The stunning posts just keep coming...Love this one and it has a masculine feel to me - probably the colours but so easy to change to make it feminine - just gorgeous.
Hello Sue and all Really like this one, colours and simplicity. Can’t wait to watch the video Just back from holiday and trying to catch up one handed Hugs Muriel x
