Slimline Stars Background

Good morning bloggers!  Here we are at the start of day four already!  This post is dedicated to the Slimline Stars Background.  Shown here as a shaker card, the stars will make a beautiful background for any sort of card.  I think this one may even make a return during the next Festive season later on in the year!  I bet you can imagine all sorts of ways to use this one too!  Don't forget that I have put the Pinterest button on the bottom of all the posts.  Please feel free to use it to pin any samples you might like to keep for later inspiration.  Once again, I will remind you to leave a comment on this post if you would like to have your name entered into the drawing to win this die set.  Please be sure to make your name memorable in some way, though, so I don't have more than one person claiming the winning die!  I only have one of each of them to send out!  I will be back here at 12 noon with the next instalment of the blog launch.  Hope to see you then!  All for now. Sue x

    Hi Sue, firstly the final post of yesterday was beautiful I loved how the depth of the background highlighted your floral element but how it helped showcase the sweet expression. When I saw this earlier in the week I initially thought it was a mask you'd used to grout through now I know for real its nothing like I thought but I love it, all those fall away stars to use with the fall away hearts with one of your other dies what a pretty mix that would make for table confetti or shaker cards. Looking forward to seeing what you're going to share with us today. Sending much love to all that visit. STAY SAFE 💕 xx

    Good Morning Sue and all.
    I love this one Sue and it will be fighting for the favourite spot. I like Steph's idea for using the stars etc in shaker cards and others.
    I can imagine this one becoming a goto,
    Thank you Sue.

    Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, what a stunning die the 'Slimline Star Background' is, I know this is going to a very popular die you can use as a background, use the stars, use it as a stencil, oh the list is endless, as I said a very popular die.

    Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
