Very Exciting News!

Hello crafters!  I am very excited to tell you  that my big news today is that I am releasing my very own die line for Creative Expressions.  I have been working on these for quite a while now and finally the day has come to show them off.  I hope you like them as much as I do!  There are five different collections, 31 dies in all that we are launching. Every day for the next five days I am going to be featuring cards (yes multiple cards) from each of the different collections.  Now here is the amazing part.  I am going to be doing multiple posts each day, some days with as many as four cards in a single day!  Each post will also have at least one die set as a giveaway contest so there will be multiple chances to win (31 in fact!).  So if you would like to be one of the first people to receive one of the die sets, you just have to leave a comment on each post!  I have done videos for each of the cards that you are going to be seeing on this sneak peek, however, they will be going on to the blog as part of my weekly video series in the future so just the pictures for you each day for now!  This card is showcasing my new Filigree Bow from my Finishing Touches collection and the borders from my Italian Collection.  The bows are 3 dimensional and are so so pretty in real life, you are just going to love them! There are three different styles and  each set has two sizes of bows, two different tails, a wrap piece and a matching ribbon die!  The combinations of beautiful bows you can make with this one make it a real valuable asset to your crafting projects!  The next card is scheduled for noon today so don't forget to check back!  Each die set winner will be drawn from the comments left for each individual post. Shown below are the die sets for this giveaway, what do you think? There will be a separate name drawn for each set to be given away!  I will announce all the winners next week after all the sneak peeks are finished!  Oh and if you like what you see, please ask your local stockists to order them as they are shipping as we speak!  All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue. Now I didn't think of that! Congratulations on coming up with such a brilliant idea :) You really know what is needed. These Sue Wilson/Creative Expressions die sets will be sell outs. They are gorgeous, the bows are so delicate and pretty, and that Italian border is simply stunning. Can't wait to see the rest. Not only do you release these beauties but you give loads away, and we get lots of extra cards and posts...so we all benefit. Thank you : ) Take care.

Good morning Sue
I am sooooooo pleased that AT LAST you have your own range of dies. I was hoping it was a new set if dies but never in my dreams did I think it would be a whole range. I thought it would be another set for Spellbinders. I am over the moon for you and can't wait to own them ALL lol. Today's card shows the dies off perfectly and looking forward to seeing your other samples. I'm so excited that we are going to see 4 a day (I guess no housework will be done because I will be watching your blog). WELL DONE! Your news was well worth waiting for.

Congratulations on the launch of your very own die collection.

I am thrilled with the thought of
your personal success and wish you Good Luck.
I cannot wait for your opening shot of the Bow-maker.
Now, where do we get them?Love,

Anonymous said...

Congratulations Sue on your new venture, its a cert that your dies will be a sell out wherever they are sold so I hope the manufactorers have pressed enough or I see a Wilsonette Revolution starting ! How clever is Sheila to get an inclin of your tease just from the photo, you rock girl : )
Once I have enough to buy my new mangle I will certainly save to christen it with a Wilson Wonder Die, they are just SO pretty Sue, a Sue Wilson card in a die how about that then, amazing. Thank you for all your hard work to bring these to us, and for your sincere kindness giving your Wilsonettes the chance to own a set. Im so looking forward to coming back later to see another W.O.W (Wonder of Wilson) card, I really wish I had your level of designing 1 card after another as I really must get cracking with all the Mothers Day and Easter cards for the next fair, so Its heads down, whip out, and fingers crossed that Im lucky enough to own a set of these wonderful dies soon.
You must have a very proud mom Sue, to watch her daughter do what she loves and for that love to grow into such a massive sucess, and to have a daughter that is admired as much as you are, your mom must be one of the proudest mom's around.

GOOD LUCK to all my friends here. Hope you are the chosen one.

Tina. You are in my mind today. Keep thinking about Margarets post. Big tight loving hugs to Berkley 4 Paws xx

Good Luck everyone. Love you.

Many Many Many congratulations on your OWN DIES - What a wonderful feeling you must have and how have you managed to keep the secret all to yourself.
If the rest of the sets are as gorgeous as today's gift (and what a gift it would be to receive any of them)then I cannot wait to see them all.
These dies will certainly be at the top of all my birthday/Christmas and any other lists I make to ensure one of each comes to my home.
Again congratulations and thank you for all your inspiration and encouragement to give us.

Oh Lordy, Sue, this is one huge surprise. Congratulations on the launch of your own range of dies - had a very bold peek at the CE website and there's a fabulous choice. Love their names, too, that must have been a marketing puzzle deciding what to call them all. Now just need some pennies!!
Will you still feature Spellbinders, I wonder?
Today's card really pretty - an exercise in mono simplicity.
Thank you for your huge generosity in offering sets as prizes - fingers crossed.

Sorry Sheila, I did mean to highlight your name for being so clever, you were SPOT on : ) you sure know how to get people out of bed early Sue : ) so many bleary eyed Wilsonettes with alarms going off up and down the country ! Our eyes are on stalks now all beavering away to find stockists (CE BLOG LIST STOCKISTS) and the PRICE is AMAZING - THANKS Sue for helping to make them affordable after a little saving, rather months of saving ! What a shame C&C haven't invited you for a 3hr show ! Im just being greedy (we STILL wouldn't see enough of you demonstrating) !!!
We must be the luckiest ladies around to have found you.
Enjoy your Sue filled day everyone : )

Donna Jones said...

Hi Sue,
Congratulations on your own die line.
Love the idea of making bows to match my cards perfectly, and with the filigree cuts they are so pretty too. I think it could be layered like the SB butterflies by faux cutting a solid bow and overlaying with the filigree one.
Very simple and beautiful card too.

Good morning Sue and fellow Wilsonettes,
OOooooh you are a tease Mrs W showing us these beautiful dies sets. There has been a few of these make up bows designed but they do not come up to you in design or choice of differing styles. These are going to be a need not want must have and we need to wait a) until the funds are there and b) until the favoured shop gets a hold of these exquisite beauties. But thank you for spoiling us with numerous daily posts to experience each one taking in their beauty. It must be really satisfying to know that after the initial "am i doing the right thing" to seeing them in hard tangible copy in front of you, that we your loyal subjects love your designs just because you know exactly the type of dies we want to work with and what we want to finish of our mini pieces of art. Wonderful.

THIS FOR TRES:-

I like the last bit because if you have a handy hubby like Mr. Lancshire, that's handy with a spanner, screwdriver and pliers it could save you the cost of a new GC.
Last of all my daft wonderful chocolate lab (guess you could have guessed her colour) sends get well wuffs to poorily Berkeley. Tia is 7 years old and can't bark. I ask you what dog can't bark...my Tia. I hope that your poor wee fella gets some help soon to feel at back to his normal self.
The reason she is called Tia (Tia Maria when in trouble) is because i don't drink. Hey if i can do as much damage to myself without the aid of inebriation what would i be like with it. Anyway when i was 21 i was on holiday with my friends family and they decided that we were going to celebrate my 21st, so, I dry martini filled up to the top with lemonade was ordered. I had half an inch out of the top of it and felt decidely strange. I excused myself and said that i would meet them back at the apartment. Bare in mind marble floors, i went into bed, well in one side and out the other fracturing the wrist with the land on the floor. I had to go around the whole holiday with my friends mums' panti girdle strapped to my wrist because they wouldn't take me to the hospital. I had a lovely tan until you seen the white wrist. First and last drink for me for a lot of years i can tell you. I've only had a couple of glasses of wine since with my best friend Debbie, who thinks it funny to see me after half a glass of the lethal brew.
Hope i have given you a wee giggle this morning with my reminiscing of past mishaps. Even i could laugh at the time because it was a destiny i was sure to meet with.
Have a great day everyone and lets see what the next Sue installment is.
Love and crafty hugs
Norah (Glenochil)

Good morning Sue
I think I've now found my new must have crafty crush. The die sets are beautiful and certainly fill a gap in the die market, intricate but not overly fussy. Today's card is a classic. White-on-white, simple but stunning. Can't wait to check back later to see what else you've come up with Sue.
