Fishtails

Good morning everybody from a sunny but very windy N. Ireland.  Again Welcome to my new followers - when I started this blog with the encouragement of my friend Elizabeth    (http://silverscrappers.blogspot.co.uk)  never ever did I think that I would one day have 99 followers.  I want to thank each and every one of you for all your very kind comments - and I do read all of them.

For a while now I have been looking at and admiring  these Fishtail dies which many of you put on your cards and I have  finally bought them.  I put this card together yesterday  after I had cut them out and I like the simplicity of it.  Usually when I buy a die I cut out loads of the shape and put them into a box but yesterday I decided just to use them instead.  Again I have used my rolled roses and some First Edition Sweet Owl papers and of course ribbon.

                               
Thank you for taking a look.

    Gorgeous card, Marie-Louise, I love the fishtails dies and Pops uses them a lot, they look so good for lots of designs. I keep saying I must buy them but not got around to it yet. The colours you've chosen are so lovely, kate x

    Hi Marie-Louise, congratulations on getting to 99 followers - though, of course it is no surprise to me that folks want to see your beautiful creations :) I've not seen these dies but the effect is lovely and your finished card is gorgeous. Thanks for giving me a mentions and popping over to mine with your encouraging comment. Hope all is well with you and yours. It's turned very windy over here so I imagine your getting the same too.

    Hi Marie, my roses I designed in Paint shop Pro then converted them to a SVG file then cut out on my cameo and rolled. They are similar to the dies you buy I guess. Love your fish tail dies...what brand are they as I have never seen them before...thanks for you sweet comment on my bookatrix which I also designed in psp...luv annie
