Swirls Background
Hi bloggers! Next up is the Swirls Background. This background was designed to be used with the Angel, however, it is a background that could be used all year round. I love being able to use non Christmas themed dies for Christmas and year round, it definitely adds to their versatility. Don't forget to leave your comments on this post if you would like the chance to win this set. Please be sure to make your name is memorable in some way too. The last post of the day will be along at 6pm today. I hope tyou will be able to pop back by the blog then. All for now, Sue x
