  5. The pretty inlay colors you've selected certainly show off this background die. I can just see a lot of tedious tweezer work for this stunner. (Even when I use the double side adhesive, it still gets fiddly - but you have done a perfect job!) So very pretty and colorful.The tiny bouquet was just the right embellie. TFS & Hugs
