Cecilia

Hello crafters!  This post is dedicated to one of only two Frame and Tag additions in this launch; Cecila.  This die was designed with the vintage feel of the old carousels and I thought it would look great as an addition to the carousel theme, but while still remaining useful for so many other things too.   Shown here, you can see how beautifully the Cecila die works with the carousel horse.  If this die appeals to you, then just add your comment on to the end of this post and your name will be included in the drawing to win this die!  We have one final post for the day and that will be along at 6pm tonight.  All for now,  Sue x

How unusual. In every launch you throw a curve ball well almost every launch and the carousel and Cecilia fit this curve ball I think, really different and the frame/tag is soooooo intricate look how amazing glitter background as well as pixie backgrounds will look smiling through the peekaboo's. Anyway I repeat what I said recently "where do you get your ideas from does your brain ever give you a break?" Oh well mine is exhausted I have "a keeper' with a nasty nauseous migraine poor sweetheart and we've been up since 4am so a little weary, so I'll bid farewell till 6am hope everyone is managing a relaxing afternoon/early evening xxx

Scottydog (G) said...

When I first saw this die I immediately thought of an astrologers wheel! I don’t know why. It certainly gives an alternative way of presenting the carousel animals, not to mention being versatile for other cards. Thank you Sue.
