Hi bloggers! The lovely Nina die set is up next! This set is asymmetrical, but in a symmetrical way, if that makes sense! The design has been flipped but it is not top to bottom or side to side, but rather in a crisscross sort of fashion which gives it a really unique look. I love this design as it has a sort of quirky feel to it but with elegance too. I think you will be seeing quite a lot of it in the coming weeks as it just lends it self to so many card ideas! Leave your comment and then pop back here at 6pm for the last post of the day! All for now, Sue x
