Hi bloggers! The Meandering Twig Border is next up on the reveal list. First thing that I want you to see about this die is that it is a perfect positive and negative image. None of the branches overlap so can use it in both manners. The next thing is that the ends are perfect for your PVA glue dots if you want. I couldn't stop myself from doing it, it just looks so cool! I have used it in the sample shown here as a triple section background, but it looks amazing in channel cards or even cut into pieces! If you like this one, let me know what you think! That is it for today, but I will be back in the morning to share more fun stuff with you! All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue,
it'll be the next card I'll make, and using the Meandering Twigs. I'm also thinking William Morris's designs and my little fingers are just itching at putting pearls on.
This is another favourite die of mine - for me, the perfect ending of day 5.
Hugs, Rose
I really like this border, it's almost dainty! I like that it's quite versatile, too.

Hello Sue and all
Like other Wilsonettes I didn’t get excited about this set BUT after seeing your beautiful sample (triptychs are a favourite) I realised that this is a brilliant finishing touch/negative striplet with infinite possibilities. Immediately thought of pearls, sticky sheet and glitter, mistletoe for Christmas cards ......,,,... maybe pixie powder backgrounds or cut from pixie powder card - makes your head spin !!
Hugs

Julie x
This reminds me a bit of mistletoe, not sure why but it could be and that's the beauty of it...versatility. I can see cutting in parts for floral greenery also and it looks very perky as you used it in panels. Ann mentioned that it would make a good candidate for a stencil and I agree.
Night all,

Lovely card with the pretty flowers, ribbon and stick pins. My glue dot borders usually end up in the bin. This die might help me to produce something usable with glue dots. Thank you.
Such a beautiful die and card. Very delicate.
I am so glad that you show us how to use this die in a card because it is truly beautiful and so unique. I am going to do a search to see if you have any videos on working with delicate dies like this without making a mess of all the glue!
karenladd in California
Hello Sue, this is a beautiful, delicate and very versatile die, the negative die cut would make a very unusual background. Your card is really pretty, and looks great with the pva dots on the die cut. Bx

This is definitely my favourite so far. It's a bit whimsical but also a little art nouveau or arts and crafts. I love it and would love to win it! Xxxx
This is a very delicate looking die. I can see where one would not want to stop dropping PVA glue onto the dots. Too bad the photo does not show the texture and depth achieved on this dainty Meandering Twig Branch trio.
