Poinsettia Flower Square

Hi there my crafty friends!  Welcome back!  The third post of the day is dedicated to the Poinsettia Flower Square.  You just knew there had to be one to go along with all the other flowers in this collection, didn't you!  I love these as they are so easy to use and so many different techniques look amazing with them.  Shown here, you can see just how lovely the Crystal Tints work on this one!  Great for batch making as it is simple to paper piece or use Pixies with too.  This die can be used easily in different orientations too so depending on what style of card you are making, you can use it facing left or facing right or even in a diamond orientation!  Nothing is better than a versatile die set I say!  Now is your chance to leave a comment on this post for a chance at winning it, somebody is going to so it might as well be you, right!  The last post of the first day will be on the blog at 6pm.  I hope you are able to pop back by here then!  All for now. Sue x
