It's taken me quite a while to get my hands on a set of the popular slatted square dies - I just couldn't keep up and missed the boat trying to order when I spotted they were back in stock. However there is now a handy button on the website where you can request a notification email when 'sold out' items are back in stock. This worked well and the dies arrived so I just had to have a quick play - this card is the result. I die cut three butterflies from a snippet of inky card and the word from an even smaller snippet of purple cardstock. I decided to add two of the smaller square dies in the corners to add a bit of extra interest. The large square was backed with a piece cut from a Gelli print. There's some shimmer on the butterflies which, of course, doesn't show in the picture.

Hello - die from Gummiapan
Slatted Squares - dies from Craft Addiction UK
That is a very effective die, could well be tempted, makes a lovely backdrop for the Butterflies, rather like a garden trellis.

Beautiful card Val, such a pretty design. I’m loving these slatted dies and I’ve just ordered the hearts. I think the squares will be next on my list.
