Hello all! Next up we have the Herringbone Background die. Another of my favourite designs! There are just so many things that can be done with this die. Shown here, you can make absolutely fabulous columns by simply cutting the die twice, gluing them together in opposite directions so they crisscross and cutting them into columns. You can also do the same thing and leave it whole for the entire background. You can cut it into thin strips or wider strips which can then be backed and used a borders or to create frames. This die set is a real "go to" set that I know anyone will easily find a bunch of ways to use. Just pop a quick comment onto this post for a chance to win it! We will start day number five here tomorrow morning at 6am! All for now, Sue x
