Radiating Background
Hi there my crafty friends! The second of two backgrounds that were both designed to go with the angel is the Radiating Background. Shown here, you can see how this background will be quite versatile to use year round not just for Christmas. If this one sings to you, then don't forget to leave a comment on this post in order to be entered into the drawing to possiby win this beauty. Well that's it for the first day of the Christmas blog launch, but there is still much more to come. We will be starting right here tomorrow morning at 6 am. I hope you can join me for some great releases! All for now, Sue x
Lovely one Sue. I agree with Susan Foster,"It doesn't need much else" and I have a picture in my mind already. Hope to see you tomorrow with more goodies. Marie P.
Good Evening Sue. Another lovely background for us all to drool over. Imagine what you can put behind this one. And as it is a die imagine all the different types of card plain or patterned you can cut it out with. Great idea Sue. Thankyou. Someone is going to be very lucky to win this set. Kind regards Ann Toppcards in Leeds.
Hi Sue, a lovely gentle style of card. Looking at the die itself made my eyes go all funny :-) but the card shows how amazing it actually is and good for so much more than just Christmas. Great Day 1, thank you.
Hi Sue - and another stunner! Loving this background! I’ve never seen anything like it - but that shouldn’t surprise me, because that is what you’re so good at! Love the card too! Brilliant Day 1 to the release - thank you Sue. Colleen xx
