The Cat's Out Of The Bag!

Hi crafty friends!  Another sneak peek for today but this one is very close to my heart and I am really hoping that you like what you see because part of this is something that I  designed for Spellbinders! I figured that it is time to spill the beans and let you know that I've been working with Spellbinders on this since last year.   They have asked me to be one of their new designers with my first set of dies being released and demoed next week on Create and Craft.  I am so nervous, and excited, and nervous (did I say I was nervous!), I can hardly stand it!  If it goes well, then there will be others to follow so I am really hoping that you like them!  Along with my new set of dies which are called Lattice Motifs and Accents, I have also used on this card the Splendid Circles, the Damask Motifs and Accents and the Layered Flower dies which are part of the new winter release collection.  I cut the Lattice Motif using black and peach backed coordinations card.  I sanded it to let the peach accents show through.  I cut two of the Lattice accent pieces next.  These are sort of square pieces with the lattice design showing through and I used them on an angle to mat my splendid circle with my sentiment.  I  softly inked the sentiment with black soot distress ink to highlight it.  I mounted my focal element on some rusty peach gingham card.  I cut a larger section from my old dictionary for a background piece.  I cut a Damask border to go over it from top to bottom.  I also cut three of the Damask Motif pieces to hold on to the edge of it.  The chalk white American seam binding was run top to bottom over the dictionary background also and I made a bow using it with some peach coloured grosgrain ribbon also.  I made a flower using the new Layered flower die cut from several of the dictionary pages.  I crumpled them and put a hole through the centre for a brad.  I put all the pieces of the flower on the brad and gave them a final crumpling before edging it with Tattered Rose distress ink to give it a soft matching colour.  I finished the piece with some pearly swirlies in the upper corner as an accent.  I really hope you like it and check back as I will  be showing more of my Lattice Collection soon!  I am saving some of my favourite cards done with the Lattice dies for the show!  All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue, Congratulations on your new design job. I am not surprised, as you do things with these dies that we mere mortals would never think of. So it follows that you could put that into die design. Again all the elements on this card are amazing and compliment each other so well. Hugs, Carol S.xx

Maryann Laursen said...

WOOT WOOT Sue, Biiiiiiiiig CONGRATULATIONS hun, this is absolutely awesome news and you will be a perfect representative for them, that´s for sure.
Your card here is soooo gorgeous and I really like these shapes a lot, that´s for sure. Now I´m even more exited to see that show and see, what this set will contain? It´s so exiting hun, but you don´t need to be so nervous, I´m sure, they´ll be really well recieved, and we´ll get to see lots more from you in the future, no doubt, as you are just sooo clever.
I´m really happy for you and wish you all the best of luck in the world with this venture here, but don´t worry, it´ll go just perfect ofcause it will.

Alison Horne said...

Hi Sue we've not met, but as well as being a great designer of spellbinders,you bake great cookies, which I have sampled a couple of years ago when I came to creative expressions to do their demonstrator training. They must be good cookies as I still remember them as one of the highlights of two days with Sheena and Julia Andrus!

You must have been bursting with this news, well done, you are the natural choice to design for spellbinders as you clearly are so passionate about them. xx

Ann said...

They look beautiful dies very elegant.

I took the design from your cards. Sketch your design used lay out. Thank you your ideas are wonderful. In crafty devils competition now.
Todays card is the colour scheme of my front room lol. I sometimes think you have been inside my head. I notice some of these dies have been out in america for some time. Been looking at them so time to buy on your show. Damask i am thinking. I just started doing two bows on my cards and won a glue gun to cement them on.LOL Yours looks great. and something in the middle always finishes it off .You inspire me so much . Shows are going to be great, don't be nervous your among friends.Thank you all you give us.

Bless You, you are so talented and you work so hard and we love you for it, Sue x

Linda (Lindyloo) said...

Hi again Sue,
I am back now, my grandson has gone home with daddy and I have some time to relax and catch up with you properly.
Well, I have written this, deleted and rewritten as I was doing my usual and writing an essay and more. In the end I thought I could just tell you one sentence I said to my daughter a long time ago. It was this
'To me Sue Wilson is to Spellbinders what Tim Holtz is to Rangers, but they don't back her!!'
Well at last they have seen the special talented creator that is you. We know it, now the world will know it!
I wish for you only good things; wonderful experiences and the continuation of fulfilling opportunities.
Lots of love Linda

Congratulations Sue! Its not before time. You have probably sold more Spellbinders in the UK than anyone else, if you were on commission you would be rich!
I have kept all my birthday money for Sams new stamps and your appearance on C&C. Will definitely be buying your dies. The C&C website will probably crash and the emails will come in thick and fast as we have all missed you!!!

I am thrilled and excited for you, I don't know how you have managed to keep it a secret for so long. I shall certainly be watching and buying - especially the lattice die - I already have ideas about what to do with.

Welcome home and Congratulations Sue, well done on becoming a Spellbinders designer. I am really looking forward to the POD shows next week but I'm not sure my credit card feels the same way! If this is just a small sample of the new dies available we will be spoilt for choice. I've been unable to comment since Friday because on Saturday someone/something cut through some cables thereby denying me and several hundred other people of both 'phone and internet until about an hour ago. I was beginning to suffer withdrawal symptons but now feel much better LOL.

Hi Sue,

After 5 very very frustrating weeks without a computer it has finally come back to me with new innards "bits" and what a day to return to you. I am so pleased for you and your sneaky peak has fuelled my enthusiasm for Spellbinders even more - and no doubt for everyone else!! I will be glued to the TV next week and hopefully by then I will have caught up on all the postings I have missed - that's a treat in itself. Don't be nervous about the show, the only thing to be worried about is how to get more stock in as I know you will have a sell out!!

Love from Jackie D

Why are you nervous, these dies are fab fab fab, well done you, I wondered how long it would be before spellbinders got you on board and Not a day to soon. I'm in a very wet California right now so am late looking at your blogs and I'm going to mis c&c until I get back to watch the recordings and of course all will be sold out. Good luck but you don't need it..

Way to go Sue! I should try and buy some shares in Spellbinders as now that you have joined the team, sales are going to go through the roof! I was hoping that my credit card would have recovered from Christmas at the end of the month but looks like it's just going to have a relapse next week! Love the card...as always.
Those presenters better give you a chance to finish a couple of demos at least even WHEN they dies sell out.x

Jen Shep said...

I lovvvvvvvve these dies and can't wait to buy them and see the demo's. i am sure they will be a great success

carolyn lee said...

Fantastic design. Spellbinders certainly knew what they were doing asking you to design for them . Long may your partnership continue. That way we all gain from your talent and expertease

Vicki Sharkey said...

WOW Sue, you are a dark horse. Love the dies. Looks like I will have to join the queue to buy them. Am sure they will be a sell out straightaway on C&C. Can't wait.

kerry said...

such a beautiful card.the colourways and vintage style are so inspiring.tried a post a comment but think i emailed it instead!(i'm new to this) but had to say something about the lovely new dies.luv kerry

craftycath said...

Fantastic - I don't think Spellbinders would sell half as many dies in the UK (especially on C & C) if it wasn't for your brilliant designs - You should be a partner in the Co!!
Congrats Luv Cathie x
