I love your NBUS Bubble Die which looks great used with the circle sentiment and sweet little crystal gems on the ATC, and with the pretty red glittery hearts on the card Kathy, and such lovely flowers your neighbours sent you..how kind. x
What a gorgeous new die - which you’ve made great use of on both the card and the ATC. Love both projects xxx
