Hi guys! Okay, well it's a birdcage and a Rocket ship (sort of a plane?) I know, it's corny but there wasn't a sentiment to use as a title today! I have been having a little root around in some of my older folders and have found some overlooked cards so I thought I would give you a two-fer today. They are both a bit not my usual style, but a little bit of fun nonetheless. These are samples from the Die D-Lite shows that Julia and I did some time back. The moment I looked at this birdcage, I saw a rocketship and couldn't resist having a bit of fun with it (see the last pic). I thought what a great card for a young boys birthday! The first card I did take a small liberty on because I am supposed to stay within the constraints of the show products when making samples. However, the birdcage just really needed a bird and I found this one on one of the older die sets and for the life of me, I cannot recall the name of it! Even worse than that, I can't find this embossing folder so I don't know the name of it either (how bad am I today!) I embossed my milk coloured card with it and then used the enchanted gold gilding wax and rubbed it across the top of the embossing. I have included loads of close up pics so you can see the lovely lustre it gives. I matted the piece of soft gold card. I cut the Birdcage Die D-Lite out of soft gold card as well as rubbed it with the same gilding wax to give it a bit of the bling too. I found a piece of satin cord in my stash and used it too make the cage look like it was hanging. I added a shabby chic messy bow out of chalk seam binding and topped it with a clear round Dazzler. I added 3mm and 5mm cream flat back pearls to the ends of the swirls on the embossed background for some interest. I matted the card with a double mat of milk card and pierced the inner mat. Almost clean and simple compared to my usual look huh? The finished dimensions on this one are 6" x 8" in size. I only took one pic of my whimsical rocketship card and didn't get the measurements on that one, sorry! I used the Uber embossing folder on it as well as silver distress stain to make the "planets" and stars. I used Cosmic Shimmer coloured PVA glues to make the rocketship exhaust. Hope you like it!

Hi Sue. They are both beautiful (and clever) cards. I love the way you used the cosmic shimmer dots! Congrats to all the winners. Take care.
Seeing these cards reminds me why I bought these d lites dies. xx
Morning Sue, such brilliant cards, love the rocket on the best. Congratulations to all the winners.
Love June

GM Sue - I love the gilding wax - wonderful stuff. I think Spellbinders should re-name that die now - C&C have had shows recently where nearly all the presenters mention the rocket more than the bird cage almost - I wonder why?! Not.

Clare W
Good morning Sue,
I saw the rocket ship on C&C at the time thought it would make a wonderful youngsters card. The bird cage with the gold is lovelly. Enjoy your Sunday.
Gail C x
Good morning Sue
I love both cards, this is why we love you, you always think out of the box and come up with brilliant ideas. Who else would see a rocket in a bird cage? Lol. The soft gold card is my favourite 'gold' card it's not too bright. Congratulations to all the winners.
Hugs x

Lovely card I wouldn't normally buy a birdcage die - too restrictive for me as I only make cards for friends & family & wouldn't be their "bag" But to see it used in an entirely diff way is great Contracts to winners We have sunshine for a change today yeh !
Hi Sue, a treat today two 4 one, thanks Sue both cards are great love the bird cage quite popular at the moment and as you said the rocket ship is brilliant for boys cards, love them both . Thanks.

Good Morning Sue,
Two for one great stuff, they are both lovely, but I had a giggle at the rocket one, especially the font of the sentiment, the 'W'.
I have been playing with the guilding wax, love it. You certainly had some lovely comments yesterday, congrats to the winners.

of it. Congratulations to all

Such beautiful cards Sue and a great versatile die, fabulous designs, Kate x
Morning Sue, I remember the rocket ship from C& C it's a great idea, love the bird cage too, very popular at the moment. You are so cleaver.
Love Rosemarie Fishlock. Xx
The plane card caused a bit of a stir and it still makes me smile! Very inventive indeed. Both cards are super again today. Love the gold cage. I've recently bought some of the gilding wax and it really does give a beautiful effect.
Morning Sue, two beautiful cards but I think the one with the bird is my favourite!
Congratulations to all the lucky winners.
Love Jean xxx
Morning Sue,
Wowee a 'two fer' today I love it when you do this....and both are absultely adorable cards. I love that embossing folder on the first one and I haven't used my birdcage die yet so it's great to see what you can do with it. I loved the rocket card when you first showed it on TV and now it's lovely to be able to see it close up. Great inspiration from both cards,
Congrats to all the winners today.
Love Sheila xx
Like the two-fers, Sue. The rocket ship (inspired!)appears so regularly as a sample that it's quite an old friend. Love the bird card, great design and colours (think the wee bird is from Bird Sanctuary).
Well deserved heap of comments yesterday and glad to hear you are going to keep on blogging - did you say forever?!! Hooray.
'P' in Wales
Hi Sue loving both cards this morning, I especially love the bird cage and the embossing folder you have used. Have a great Sunday. X
Ever so Clever! Love them both.Congratulatios to all winners!
Good morning Sue and everyone.
You always show, if you look at your dies another way, you can come up with different uses for them. You have a wonderful imagination. You would be a busy girl if you had 400+ comments to read every day! x
Wow Sue 2 such different cards today, just shows what you can come up with when you think outside of the box! Love them both, you are such a great inspiration to us all, thank you.
Love and hugs

You remember in Harry met Sally when the lady said I'll have whatever she is having, well I wish I had half of your creational ideas. You are so clever and the twofer are great. Happy Sunday everyone and well done to the winners.
Love Jan x x
Love the rocket, it is great when you can get more than one look from a die.
Good Morning Sue. A Birdcage or a rocket - both beautiful.
Love Val in Spain xxx
Hi SUe, I still remember them from the show, and all my granddaughters have been begging me to try and make one too, as they saw it. I haven´t yet, as they´re all girls, but you made me look at my dies in a much different way, and I can tell you, I made a princessewagon out of the other birdcage here for my granddaughters birthday, so you´ve definitely taught me something on that show. And these cards are ofcause as usual just awesome and perfect made.
Big CONGRATS to all the lucky winners here too, please enjoy your prizes ladies and have a wonderful sunday everyone.
Is it the bird is it the plane cannot choose. I love them both I have this die never used it what lovely ideas.
Jane xx
Good Morning Sue!
Love the Birdcage and the bird...I do have that Die!
The wax looks lovely on the embossed background, and I don't have that one,lol!
Well done to all the winners!
Its another lovely day Sue, looks like maybe June is the start of Summer, another LOL!
LoveMarg
it really does look like a rocket, love the idea of using dies in different ways.
morning Sue
I am ashamed to say that I have this die having bought it in one of the picks of the week some time ago and have never used it. This has now to be remedied!!
I really love the format of both of the cards and the colour schemes are great. When I make my birdcage there will have to be a slight change as I do not have a bird die (oh that does look funny but am not changing it!)so will have to find something to fit into the cage. I will be making a bday card early for a little boy whose bday is Oct. but doing this I will not forget the rocket die.
Congratulations to all the very lucky winners - enjoy all your goodies but most of all big Congratulations to you Sue for over 400 comments yesterday.
Janet x
Hi Sue Your imagination makes me smile whenever I see the d-diltes on C&C it doesn't matter who is presenting but they always refer to your rocket! LOL and makes me smile! I found it funny that you put the rocket at the end, I like both cards and think the rocket is excellent for a boy/man.
Congratulations to all the winners and so pleased Sue that you say you will blog whilst we are all here. I cannot imagine the time it takes you but we all really appreciate your blog, training and ideas so thank you so much because I am sure I don't tell you enough!
Take Care Love Michelle S xxx
Hi Sue
Two great cards love the embossed background and gilding wax on the first card but the rocket ship is brill. Congratulations to the winners
Best wishes, Pat
Morning Sue, I love both these cards, the first looks quite easy to do, and the second I am going to try for my Great-Grandson's 7th Birthday in December. I remember seeing this as your sample and loved it then.
Congratulations to the lucky winners.
Lots of love from Patricia xx
Morning, Sue :-)
Both cards are lovely - the rocket makes me smile each time I see it, on tv they show it as a sample each time they promote the dies and it is really clever!
You're a wonder, Sue!
Hugs Annie
I must admit I hadn't thought of the birdcage as a rocket! LOL.
Congrats to all the winners, I am dead envious.
Good morning Sue,
Brilliant cards - I LOVE LOVE LOVE the one you did for the show, I can assure you that boys aren't the only ones who would love it. The white one is more for us (beautiful) women...
Hugs, Rose
Morning Sue, great cards today. Ever since I saw the spaceship card on the telly, thats all I can see when anyone else shows this die. However, it's good to see your card with it a an actual birdcage. It certainly helps having a bird on it too. Hope you are having a good weekend. Kind regards Joanne K x
Hi Sue
I really think that the rocket was inspired! I actually prefer it used this way than the birdcage. However, both cards are lovely.
Both cards are brilliant you are such a clever lady
Morning Sue,
Love both the cards - rocket ship or bird cage they are both fantastic cards.
TFS
Hugs
Amanda x
Wow! You are so creative Sue. I could not, for the life of me, see a rocket ship, only a bird cage & then I scroll down & it's like the die cut morphed in front of my eyes to the perfect rocket.
Such fun cards Sue ,i especially like the rocket ,so clever .
Elaine H X
Fantastic cards again Sue. Love the rocket for a little boys card

Fab cards but for the life of me I can't imagine anyone being able to look at a birdcage & see a rocket ship!! It must be fab to have an imagination like yours. Pat x
Gorgeous cards, esp love the rocket one,perfect for men. Emma
I love that rocket ship Sue, it made me smile when I saw it on C&C. Only Sue Wilson could think of that lol! Two wonderful cards, thanks for sharing. Oh, and I am totally addicted to that gilding wax. The enchanted gold is out permanently on my craft desk now :-) Maddy x
Great cards Sue, love the Brocket.
Beautiful cards. Great idea to use the birdcage as a rocket ship.

Hi Sue
Both such great cards. Love the bird cage one particularly. But the rocket one is great too, very imaginative.

Morning Sue. I have this die but not used it yet. Both cards are great. Love the way you always manage to see 'out of the box'.
Hugs Sue x
Hi sue hope you are well, i love todays card as a vintage feel to it for me i really do like it. and the use of the same die for the rocket card brill..hugs sarah xxx
Hi Sue, I really love both of the cards today, it just goes to show how versatile Spellbinders dies are, you can just do so much with them - especially if you use a little crafty imagination!! ....You certainly know how to do that!! Well done. Love Sam xxx
Morning Sue,
Two cards...you are spoiling us!
I love the versatility of this die and your on take of a rocket is fab.I did not buy this set of dies I bought the first set with the other bird cage in them.
I love the background embossing folder, so beautiful, I cannot help with its name though!
So happy to hear you will keep your blog going for as long as possible.
Love & Hugs
Jacquie J xxx
Good Morning Sue!
Both cards are gorgeous.Especially the first. But like you have to say it looks more like a rocket than a birdcage.
When I use it as a birdcage I cut below the bottom horizontal line off and then I think it looks like a birdcage. Birdcages have flat bottoms!
Any way Congratulations to all the winners today. Fingers crossed for tomorrow's draw!

This is lovely with the little bird and the cage done in gold though know you don't often use gold card. I like the embossing folder al lot but have never seen it before so don't know the make or what it is called, sorry.

Yaayyyyy two for the price of one today. Love both the cards and the guilding wax really does give a lovely sheen/glow on the white. Many congrats to the lucky winners.

Hi Sue, I love both cards for different reasons. The bird cage card is delicate and pretty. The rocket card is fun and the idea would be great for my 6 grandsons. I was not tempted to buy the bird cage die but might now.
Two fabby cards - I remember seeing them both on the shows and luved them then xx GailT xx
Today's cards are beautiful!! You can always get something nice out of every die :)
Hope you have a gread Sunday.
and congratulations to the lucky winners :)
Clever girl, sue. You certainly have the imagination gene.
All the best for the next year.
Particularly loving the backgrounds of both cards.
Susan x
love both these cards ,the rocket takes the lead though.Brill cards both of them .Laura O.
Both cards are beautiful, the gilding flakes on the bird cage make it look as if it is metal and that it is floating off the page. The rocket ship is absolutely brilliant with the use of the cosmic shimmer dots! You have such imagination and give so much inspiration which allows us to look at dies differently. Hugs, Jen :-)

Good day to you sue

brings such elegance to the card the rope look and the ribbon shrivelled topped with the embellishments on the background and the fribbon just brings it all together
Love it!
Just love that rocket ship!

Hi sue I really like the first card and the gilding wax makes such a big difference to the card,I have been using the wax on a few cards recently and I really like using it,I even like the smell!! Lol. The second card is my favourite though as it is such a fun card,and who says it has to be for boys my teenage daughter has requested one for her next birthday with the rocket and flames done in pink and purple!! Didn't get to post yesterday so will add a post to it today. Love Lesley x
Hi Sue, loved both cards xxx
It's so amazing the different cards you can effect with the same dies and a little imagination - if I only had half your talent I would be a happy bunny!
Thanks, Susan
Well I do remember seeing the rocket ship card but not the (proper) bird cage card. I like both of them and I do have this die but not used it yet! I'm a little gutted today as I've lost part of my vase die! I have the filigree bit but not the base part of it! But hey I'm sure it will turn up soon or else I'll have to buy a new one and then the original one will appear! LOL I hope everyone has a great day hugs Sonia x
hI Sue love the fun card today,the wax on the embossed part is fab.,the bird and the cage reminde's me of when we had our bird Bob that my hubby taught to speak,all the family were very sad when Bob passed away,and was given a laying in state and a funeral,my daughter was little at the time and all her friends brought flowers and then a procession in the garden to the burial ,Julie decided we needed a holy song and they started to sign HERE COMES THE BRIDE,the only song the knew.Thank you for reminding me of this,so I will try and make the bird cage,
Smiles

Not sure about this birdcage - I would have to trim off the bottom bit, but love the rocket. Happy blog birthday for yesterday - pity I missed the chance of the draw, but hey ho, caught up in "family stuff". Saw a very appropriate notice in a shop window the other day - "Friends welcome at all times - family by appointment!" Thank goodness I have your blog to cheer me Sue. X
Was not sure about this die until I saw these two versions. Love the plane/ rocket. Kathy xxx
Hi Sue
What a super card I love the way you have used the cord leading to 'The Bow' My little grandson aged 6 and I have made the rocket card together after seeing you show it on C & C he thought it was 'double super'

Hi Sue, Love both of these cards but have to say the rocket is my favourite.
All the best, Brenda Lel.
CONGRATULATIONS to all you lucky winners.
Not my favourite die would only use it as you have as a rocket which looks great.
Hello Sue. Once again your cards are amazing - love them both. xx
Helloooo and good afternoon Sue and everyone. Ooooo, love both of these. I love the cage and bird card. The gilding wax seems to have the same lovely effect as the gilding flakes. That tint of colour just makes it "pop". As for remembering what the embossing folder and dies are called, I'll just say, welcome to my world! I'm sure there is quite a few of us living in the "twilight zone!". Beautiful card! I remember the rocket ship from the C&C show you were on and it was so clever. I'm sure any little lad would love to receive it. What a fantastic imagination you have. I'm sure if you put it in a bottle, it would sell millions! How wonderful too that you had so many lovely comments! "Wow!" xx Congratulations to the winners! Enjoy your prizes! Wonderful! Take care Sue xx Love Karen xx
Well just like everyone else, I love both of the cards. But I particularly love the rocket! I have all nephews and lots of our friends have little boys, so this would be a great card for them. Although I know a few little girls that would love it too! Thanks Sue, you're the best, long may you reign!!
Love both of todays cards.congrats to all the winners,take care,x.
Two beautiful cards again, Sue. The rocket is super-cute; never mind little boys liking it, I love it! It has a bit of a steampunk look about it.
Two lovely cards Sue, but I think the rocket has the edge.
Hi Sue,
Both of these cards are great. I don't think I'd have thought to make the cage into a rocket, but it's an excellent steampunky space-craft! Love the white celestial 'splats'. Can't help with name of the embossing folder, but I have the set with the bird and have recently used it myself on a card it is called 'Bird Sanctuary'. Long live the Particraft blog.
I lie the birdcage card very much. Good idea about the rocket too.
Beautiful, love the wax
mol x
So cute - I love the look of the gilding wax.
Fabulous cards - both of them. The gold gives such a brilliant touch for the card.
Hugs,

Lovely cards yet again Sue. Love the birdcage done as a rocket... Congratulations to the winners this week xx
wow, this is stunning x
love it!! what a good idea. xx
love it!! what a good idea. xx
I'm not a lover of the shape of the bird cage die, however this card is lovely and the rocket card would make an amazing card for a young (or not so young!) boy. x
The card is lovely, as always but I think Spellbinders could have come up with a much better birdcage-it looks more like a spaceship.
Is it a plane, or is it a bird ?
no it's a rocket made by Super Sue!
Love the effects you've created with both these cards.Very imaginative use of the die.

This is fabulous I love the gorgeous design. A very versatile die.

Beautiful design, I love the gold tones!
Thanks for posting nice blog. Each printed pearlescent card also reflects an iridescent and with best quality and due to the infused metallic pearl fibers and which present in the paper, that are impossible to rub off as well. This pearlescent effect also creates a soft and subtle texture and that cannot be found on any other kind of paper stock as the paper catches the light subtly from different angles. Our high-quality printing techniques also ensure that this shiny quality of the paper isn’t reduced nor is the best quality of the design compromised. Print Flat Pearl Greeting Cards From PrintMagic.
