Hi my crafty friends! What a whirlwind the trade show has been! Three days of demoing my new die line, talking to stockists and getting feedback. I am officially over the moon with how well they have been received! Thank you so much for helping me get the word out about them. Just to answer the emails and comments asking, the dies are not being launched on C &C, just our Creative Expressions stockists! You have done such a great job of letting your local retailers know that you would like them to carry the line, thank you so much! I will come down from cloud nine now so I can talk about today's card. I embossed the background with the Interlocking Circles embossing folder for some background texture. I matted it with periwinkle card. Using the Raindrops on Roses die set from Heartfelt Creations, I cut four of them in coconut white card. I glued them to the four edges on my background. Next I cut a labels 18 in white and did a matching "Faux nestie" in blue by tracing around the outside of the die and hand cutting it to match. I mounted this in the centre of the card on foam. On a separate piece of paper, I stamped the floral bouquet from the Majestic Morning collection, coloured and cut it out. I mounted it on Labels 18 in the middle of the card as my focal element. I tied a messy bow out of sky blue seam binding and added a white crystal sparkler to the centre. I stamped a sentiment and cut it out with a small tag die and tucked the end under the bow embellishment. I finished with a double white pierced mat layer and added some flatback pearls as embellishments. Finished dimensions are 8" x 8" in size. Don't forget to leave a comment on today's post to be entered in the drawing for the card! I will announce the winner's name on the Saturday post. All for now, Sue x

Morning Sue, So glad your trade shows went really well, everyone will adore your new dies !!
I, for one, am upset that C&C won't be selling them, especially as I want 'lots' of them, and the flexipay there certainly helps me, but hey ho I will have to be patient haha !!
Your card today is stunning, I'm loving the four Raindrops on Roses die-cuts placed like a frame around the stunning focal image, and the white dazzler is gorgeous, I really need those.
Lots of love from Patricia xx

Hi Sue. What a beautiful card. The raindrop on roses is a firm favourite of mine. I was lucky enough to come to the trade show and saw you, Julia, Hels and Ali. All of you had such great samples. Love Nicola x
Hi Sue, I'm truly Thrilled that the show at NEC went well for you! I'm so pleased The Retailers Purchased your Range but then who wouldn't!

I really Love today's Stunning, Beautiful, Exquisite, Regal Card and so very much more, I Love the Soft Colours you have chosen, the Fabulous Interlocking Embossing Folder you've used for your background, and The Outstanding Raindrops On Roses Dies from Heartfelt Creations it looks like Lace surrounding your main image, and I Love the Stamp you decided to use, Just a Fabulous Card as always Sue.

What a great way of using dies to create a whole new 'shape'. I love the periwinkle colour and the stamped flower is lovely.
Good news about your dies Sue and well deserved.
Congratulations on your successful trade show, so much deserved. Love todays card it is beautiful, love the circles dies , very pretty xx
Hi sue,
Glad your dies went well at the trade show. One of my local craft shops tells me they have Julia going to them to demonstrate your dies so I have told everyone to get themselves there. They will not be disappointed. Enjoy your success with the dies, you deserve it. Today's card is lovely and has a bit of a Victorian feel about it. X
So pleased everyone wants your dies ,you deserve it ! This card is so very pretty .love the vase of flowers .
Crafty hugs Rachel x
Congrats on the response at Stitches Sue. I'm glad the retailers get the stock as some of them are generally more affordable than C & C. IconUK always has the best prices - don't know how they do it.
Gorgeous, gorgeous card. I'm a relative newbie to die cutting and your blog is a great source of ideas and inspiration. It's great to see all the different ways to use dies - today's card is perfect example so thank you.
Alison
Good morning Sue
Another stunning card it's so intricate and my kind of card. Congratulations on your success at the trade show we all knew it would. I'm surprised at C&C not selling your dies because they sell everyone else's, oh well it's their loss. The dies my son bought for me came yesterday and I haven't stopped playing with them. The tag from the Spanish border set is the prettiest tag I've ever seen and I'm going to have to sit on my hands so that I don't use it on every card lol. The dies will sell themselves once samples are seen of the cards made using your dies.
Hugs x
Heather T
Wonderful card Sue. Glad all went well.
Stunning card. Love the colours and everything about it! Hugs Sonia x
Morning Sue, such a beautiful n effective card and your dies are to die for. Have a great day.

GM Sue - love this card and the rain drops on roses die is lovely.
Many thanks to those Wilsonnetes who responded to my call out yday re comments and advice on starting a papercraft club - appreciated. I now need to investigate suitable venues and insurance costs and then make a decisions as to whether it could be a 'goer' or not - I'll keep you posted with progress.
Re a question on one of yday's posts - I do believe it was Steph who coined the phrase the 'Wonder of Wilson' or WOW and that's really apt I think as Sue's dies are defintely WOWEE - I think we would all agree on that.
Glad the trade show was a success Sue.

Good morning Sue. I love the raindrops on roses dies. This card today is beautiful and the pink and blue look lovely together. I'm glad your range went down well at stitches. Xx
morning Sue
What a beautiful gift today - really sets me up to face the hassle today is going to be.
I love the colours clean and fresh - you cannot go wrong with any shade of blue and white for me.
The more I see the Raindrops on Roses the more I like it but for now my pennies have been spent on 'Sue Wilson' dies (now I wonder why!!!(lol).
Cannot get to crafting today as it's hospital visit but definitely tomorrow - it has to be!
See you tomorrow.
Janet x
Lovely lovely card today Sue the sort of car I want to recreate. Thank you for sharing.xx
Morning Sue, stunning elegant card, love that die, is that another one on my list? Glad your dies went down well at the Trade Show, there was no doubt that they would though! I had a go at yesterday's card in a different colour with gilding flakes and was pleased with the outcome, thanks for the video for it! Love Jean xxx
Morning Sue,
Love the card. Great lacy dies x
Good morning Sue today's card is just gorgeous. I'm so pleased that the trade show went well for you it is brilliant that so many people will be selling them. I was hoping to see you demoing the dies on C & C but that's not to be It will be a boost to the independent retailers to have products this desirable that they don't have. Have a great day everyone. Love Jackie
Hi Sue
Gorgeous card so fresh and pretty
love it.
Congratulations on the success of your new dies so glad they went down well at the Trade Show.
Hugs Annx without an "e"
Congrats on a successful show Sue and this card is "right up my street", love white on white or cream on cream with a splash of colour, always looks elegant and very expensive. xx
Good morning Sue and everyone
A beautiful and elegant card. Enjoyed playing with my Striplet die yesterday afternoon. If its C&C s choice not to sell your dies, then more fool them. Seems to be the Stephanie Weightman Channel at the moment product and presenter wise.
We'll give other retailers our cash for your stunning dies.
Best wishes.
Ang x
Morning Sue,
Have you come down from cloud 9 yet?
So pleased for you, the dies are fantastic. I'm sure that any retailer that stocks them won't be disappointed.
Today's card is lovely very delicate and suitable for many occasions.
Have a rest today Sue you deserve it after all of your hard work.

Lovely lacy card, Sue...so pretty! Glad you did so well at the show...you deserve it! Jo x
Morning Sue so pleased to hear your dies went well at the craft show. I was asking in my local store and they are waiting for a delivery. Gorgeous card today love the raindrops and roses dies. Sophy n Gran
Another stunning card, love the colours.
So delighted about your new dies. The ones I have are lovely. Talking of which, great card - love the Raindrops on Roses dies.
Hi again Sue,
Just a note for people who order their dies off the internet or like to go shopping in a shop, try MSA crafts or Sunrise Crafts. They are both going to stock Sue's dies. Who needs C and C anyway , they are way over-priced. X
Hi Sue,
Pretty card, the die cuts look like a lace doily when arranged that way, pretty flower stamp too.
Congratulations on the success of your dies.
Donna Jones
Hi Sue
Stunning card today, your dies are amazing, hope one day to get some, but other things need my pennies so my wish list will have to wait.
Happy crafting
Love Tina x
Morning Sue
Another stunning card, I do like that die. I have got 4 of your new dies now and I love them
Sue xxx
Hi Sue, a beautiful, elegant card~ I love everything about it!Pleased that the show went so well, but we all knew that your dies would be a hit!!
Maggie x
Hi Sue. So glad that the show went well and the retailers want your dies as much as we do : ) Todays card is so soft and gentle, love the sky blue card and ribbon, and both the Raindrops on Roses die and the floral bouquet stamp. It all works together beautifully. I hope that can get a rest now before C & C on Sunday. Only 4 sleeps now : )) Take care.
Good morning Sue, I'm so glad that your dies have received such a positive response from retailers, they are stunning and this card showcases that. I love the lacy, doily effect you've achieved and the soft colours are beautiful.x
Morning Sue,
Stunningly elegant card this morning. I love the Heartfelt Creations Raindrops on Roses die and love using it too as it's so pretty. Congratulations on how youer fabulous dies have gone down so well.....though I'm not a bit surprised as they are just gorgeous. Got my fingers crossed for this wonderful car...many thanks for the chance to win it.
Love Sheila xx
Good Morning Sue,
Really thrilled for you that the tradeshow was a success, it's only right it should have been, because you have put so much work and effort into creating these beautiful dies, we all love them - but I'm sure by now you've realised that!!!
Today's card is just gorgeous, love these lacy effects dies, they almost have a Victorian feel, just love it all.
Hope the next few days are a little calmer for you, take care, love Brenda xxx
Good morning Sue and fellow Wilsonettes,
I loveeee this card today as it has the look of my mums old scraps to it. They have that victorian feel to them, the time of beauty and decadence in dresses. Each time i see the raindrops on roses demoed into a card it is beautiful and i wish i had these beautiful dies.
I am so glad that the retailers are seeing the potential in your beautiful dies Sue, as they deserve to be used my a wider audience than just us we drop at our special site. The versatility of them are fantastic and once they start demoing in their classes that craft shops have, they are going to be in much higher demand.
Thank you Cameeli for sending me some energy today as i will need it. Meeting my friend for coffee at Dunelms, a squint through there and then into Hobbycrafts. By the time we're finished in there i am in need of the 2nd coffee back at coffee shop, so i will use my extra energy boost wisely (in Hobbycrafts) although today is a window shopping day.
We're having a Brigadoon morning up here, you know when the wee village appears in the fog from nowhere, well that's Glenochil today. I hope that when i leave this morning that it is still here when i get back and doesn't do a full Brigadoon on me!
Take care everyone, i hope to see you all tomorrow.
Love and craft hugs,
Norah (Glenochil)
Hi Sue,
I'm so glad to hear that your dies have gone down well. It's one thing having all your friends rave about something but quite another getting the all important retailers on board as well. So many congratulations it must have been quite nerve racking and stressful. As for today's card it is a real beauty.
Beverley W
What a delicate card These dies remind me of a lace handkerchief
Really pretty card Sue - love all the little hints of blue and the lacy background. Glad the trade show went well for you and your new dies.
Thanks, Susan x
Really pretty card. Congratulations on the response to your dies. The dies I have bought are robust and cut beautifully too. Wonder what's next, when you have had a long rest of course!
Good luck Claire W, if it's meant to be it will happen.
Sue,
So glad that all went well for you At the show -we knew it would!!
This is a lovely card -the die looks so lovely as you have used it and the colours are great.
Have a rest now -!

Hi Sue, quite surprised C&C are not taking your dies, however we can & have bought from independent traders at probably cheaper rates too - I know mine were!! Love today's card - so classy and classic ! Love it
Janette xx
Glad the trade show went well. I'm saving 2 get your dies and will get them as presents to from family but I will get them. They are gorgeous all of them. Card is gorgeous too love the lace.

Hi Sue lovely card - I was thinking about how one would use this die in the raindrops on roses set!!!. My Hollywood die set came yesterday so will have a go with it today. I have now got 7 sets of your new dies and will be looking for more when funds allow. There are lots of creative expressions suppliers stocking you beautiful dies. Create and Craft are the ones who will be missing out.
Denise X
Beautiful card Sue, love the die and I love yours too

Beautiful and elegant card Sue,

Hi Sue, what a beautiful card. As today is my birthday I shall pretend that you made it especially for me, and keep my fingers crossed that it may be winging its way to me, well I can dream. Loved your new dies, bought the leaves and ferns and am now waiting for the scrummy lattice heart striplet to arrive, I'll never be rich when you keep bringing out such loveliness.
Christine (Andypandy) x

Lovely card-so very pretty!Glad the shows have gone so well for you.C&C are very silly not to be stocking your new products but that is their loss.All your followers know where to find them and I'm sure stockists will find them difficult to keep on the shelves!!Just wish you would start coming to the hobbycrafts in Glasgow-we would love to have you,take care,x.
Morning Sue, absolutely gorgeous
glad your dies went well at the NEC
we all knew they would as they are fabulous I have used the three I have

Hi Sue - so pleased the trade show went so well for you. The dies are so beautiful. Can't wait to buy more of them. Love the lacy effect on your card today. Have a well deserved rest before Sunday. Love
YvonneMayxx
Hi Sue,
So glad that your dies have been a success at the trade show. You really deserve it as they are all fabulous. I am really surprised that C and C are not going to be stocking your dies if that is their choice, but have to say, it will be good news for the independent sellers! Whilst I admit that flexi pay is good, goods can usually be bought from other suppliers a lot cheaper and often with free p&p! Hope you can have a rest before the shows on Sunday. Well done again. Love Alison xx
Lovely card Sue .. New the dies would be a hit ..
Happy Crafting x
Morning Sue
WOW what a stunning card so effective, I just had to buy this die Roses on Raindrops after seeing Julia demoing on C & C. Love the colours you have used.
Hugs
Carol x
Hi, Sue, everything in this card is stunning, I just love it.
Not surprised that your dies went down so well, and how great that you are not selling through c&c. Time the smaller retailers got a chance, plus we don't all like create and craft, not the best customer service if you have a problem, they are getting too big to care about their customer or smaller suppliers.
cheers,
Janice W
Stunning card xx hazel
What a lovely card, so delicate :)
Good Morning Sue.
Every card you make with your new dies, I love better than the last. You´re making it impossible for me not to buy the whole lot.
Love Val in Spain x
Good morning Sue and fellow Wilsonettes
Such a pretty and delicate card I would love to own this one so keeping my fingers crossed.
Glad the stitches show was such a success as we knew it would be. I have almost got over the near disaster of the weekend and looking forward to doing a bit of crafting today as its my day off and no hospital visits. Hooray!
Good luck everyone in today's draw.
Hugs Sue xx

Hi Sue,
I love the background dies on your card. Congratulations on your successful launch!
Veronique L
What a beautiful card Sue, loved the raindrops on roses set when you demo'd them on C&C. So glad your dies are going to available everywhere, they will slowly be added to my die collection as I love each and every one.
Hi Sue, so pleased you had such a successful show, very well deserved. I would love to win this little beauty Edwina
Hi Sue
Gorgeous card today, love the lace effect. Wonderful news that your dies are selling so well.

Super card Sue - and why not stay on cloud 9 a bit longer, you deserve it!
Hi Sue, Just new your dies would be a success they are wonderful, I am waiting for mine to come, I wish they would hurry up and bring them cannot wait to have a go. love the card so pretty love Jean Z xx
Beautiful card Sue. Think l will make something like this for my Mother-in-law's mothers day card. So pleased for you that you did so well at stitches but not surprised as the dies are awesome. Crafty hugs Ann x
Hello Sue,
Today's card is absolutely beautiful.
So pleased the launch of your dies has gone so well.
Cherry McSharry
Beautiful card. Would love to win this.
Morning Sue, what a fantastic card today simply love it. Well C&C have certainly thrown their dummy out the pram as the saying goes by not selling your dies, their loss! So glad the trade show went well, we all knew it would. Nora when you are out and about go and see the new craft shop that has opened in Grangemouth, she has lots of lovely things, and a lot cheaper than other craft shops in the area, give it a try. Take care everyone, Jess xx
Beautiful Sue, love everything about this card!xx
Simply stunning x
A very effective card today Sue. I'm glad your blog followers have helped promote your dies. It's the least we could do in return for all you do for us.. c&c buyers have made a mistake but I'm sure you will still have phenomenal success through local retailers.
Caz x
Gorgeous Gorgeous Card! How I would love to receive a card such as this , but as it's Christine's Birthday she should have it ( in theory anyway)
I love this Raindrops on Roses die, but probably wouldn't find as many ways to use it as Sue does, you are just so clever!
I think ( and I'm pretty sure all The Wilsonettes will back me on this ) it really is time you had your Own Show demoing your own wonderful dies and designs ( QVC now don't seem to have any craft shows, maybe time to rectify that, although I hate their postage charges, but we would all be able to see you demoing your own products) I agree with Ang. (Mrs Duck ) C&C does seem overloaded with Stephanie Wieghtman's person and products , maybe they need a bit of competition? Just an Idea! Hope this brighter spell of weather is lifting the spirits of us all! xo
The dies are fab, it couldn't have gone any other way. This card is stunning, you're onto a winner in every way, gorgeous card.
Hi Sue, love the card today, very pretty and delicate - love the colours.
I have been playing with the dies I bought from your range last week and they are brilliant. I was laid in the bath last night designing (in my head) what else I could do with them - using your phylosophy that dies don't have to be just the shape you see. Got a few ideas to try anyway.
ElizabethS x
This card looks like the parchment paper lace. Absolutely stunning Sue. Lovely mix of these beautiful colours x x
Such a pretty card, Sue, I love it.
It was great to hear that the trade show was successful, but then I think we all knew it would be!
My new dies have just arrived and I am just off to play!

Gorgeous card, really exquisite!!!So glad your dies are so popular, you work very hard and deserve the rewards.
lovely card sue, it would make a lovely Mothers Day card.
hugs Michelle xxxx
Hi Sue
Beautiful feminine card. I love it.
I am so pleased your new dies are a success - you deserve them to be. The amount of work that must have gone into designing/producing these is incredible. They are a joy to work with and all cut so beautifully. I can't wait to add more to my collection.
Bye for now
SandraP xxx
Wow absolutely beautiful
Greetings
Felicie
Such a delicate card Sue. Beautiful.
Morning Sue - this card is lovely and shows your dies off to perfection. Thank you Helen xx
I am currently awaiting delivery of the Raindrops on Roses die set, and I am so excited. I love what you have done here, and may be borrowing that idea in the near future. Such a pretty, delicate card design.
I am so pleased for your success with your latest collection of dies, and it's thoroughly deserved as they are just beautiful. I have a few already, but I think I may have to have them all.
Hi Sue
Very pretty, delicate card love the touch of pale blue
Glad you had a successful time at Stitches and it's create and crafts loss not selling your dies, the cheapest place on the internet is IconUK followed by Joanna Sheen
Best wishes, Pat
Hi Sue
Surely you didn't think that your new dies would be well received by everyone. You are such a fantastic designer and you know just what us crafters will like. I'm glad that C & C aren't carrying your dies as I hate paying postage. I always find sites that hols creative expressions goods and don't charge any postage. Now back to the card. just love the white on white with just a hint of blue. I love the raindrops on roses dies, and have already bought the Happy Birthday stamp. These shown are next on my list. Hope you have a nice rest after a hectic time at the NEC and will record your shows as usual.
A lovely card Sue, will be quite appropriate for Mother's Day with a change of sentiment tag. I'm so pleased for you that your dies are being so well received, time now for a rest after such a hectic few days, love from Jackie D
Morning Sue
I have received my dies and they are fabulous, they seem quite large as well, so pleased with all the lovely designs. I am not surprised that everyone loves them so much. Todays card is stunning as always
Hugs Dawn Searle xxx
Good morning Sue & fellow Wilsonettes I love today's card the raindrops on roses die is beautiful I love the way you have used it so pretty & the colours are lovely.I would love to win it ( one can hope ) :0))
Sue I bet you will be on that cloud 9 for a while I am sooooo pleased for your success at the trade show but I had now doubt that the traders would love them as much as your Wilsonettes family CONGRATULATIONS.
Love & Hugs Sue & Wilsonettes see you all tomorrow hope everyone is feeling better today xxx

Ps Sue yesterday's video was brilliant xx

Bore da Sue (as they say here in Wales!)' what a stunning card....you never cease to amaze me! Da iawn x x
Hi Sue,
Beautiful card - would be a lovely wedding card. I'm so pleased your dies are such a success - you so deserve it. I've made a list in the order I hope to get them. Looking forward to seeing you on the box this weekend
Morning Sue and Wilsonettes. What a W.O.W. Just what I need. The very first glimps of this card makes it look like it's swathed in lace. Its beautiful Sue. Now then, didn't I say how chuffed all your girls would be to hear how wonderfully your new dies etc went down at the Trade show ? I hope my craft shop lady paid you a visit, I'll be VERY disapointed with her if she didn't !
My Feux Quilled flower die set appeared yesterday, so when Im thinking straight I'll take your advise Sue, and run them through with wax paper and play. Im neither in the zone to make anymore cards for market Sunday, or craft at all. I may share at some point as I love our Wilsonettes and I know a lot of you give fantastic support.
I wish Christine Happy Birthday. I agree.
And to all not feeling as bright as they'd like, or having a low day, love and thinking of you. Cameel, your doing a great job at the gym xx
Love to you Sue and our ladies.
Lancashire Steph xx
Good Morning Sue,
Once again another beautiful card to start our day and one which I would soooo.. love to win. So I'm keeping my fingers well and truly crossed. It's always a joy to log onto your blog each day to see what delight awaits us. I know I for one am NEVER disappointed. I too am surprised that your dies are not being sold via C&C and can't help wondering why this is!? Although I usually buy the majority of my dies through Joanna Sheen's website anyway, like one or two others, being able to buy them through C&C via the "flexipay" option has been useful in the past - looks like (like Patricia (Howarth)) I too will have to start saving my pennies.

Morning Sue

Did you really believe that people would not want your dies, they are out of this world - I am sure they sold themselves.

A really beautiful card indeed.
Hi Sue, congratulations on you success at the NEC. The card is beautiful. Make sure you put your feet up today Sue and have a really good rest. Happy Birthday to Christine (Andypandy) x
Oh my Sue, you never cease to blow me away with your gorgeous style!

GORGEOUS absolutely GORGEOUS that´s all I´m gonna say.
Beautiful card looks just like a real lace doily.
So very glad for you about the feedback of your dies from the trade show. They are fabulous and well deserved from all your hard work. Love the very pretty card today and thanks for sharing x
Love the raindrops on roses die. Beautiful card. I always buy my dies online after having many issues with C&C customer service, so good to hear they are available - although they are peskily out of stock at the moment, so I am having to wait for the one I have just ordered. Shows how popular they are - did you ever doubt it!?
Hi Sue, a gorgeous card. So delicate and pretty with the lacy die. So glad to hear your dies have been so well received. It is C&C's loss and the small retailers gain and ours. I can very often find dies and other items cheaper elsewhere.
So pleased your trade show days were a success - how could they not be.
I love this card and the sparkle looks pink on my screen which brings out the pink of the flowers - lovely.

Hi Sue, another stunner today, very pretty and so delicate. Silly old c&c for not having your dies, but I'm sure you will do just as well without them, it's great news that so may of the retailers were so positive about them and deservidly so as we all know how amazing they are. Ss
Glad you had a productive time at the show and not surprised that you have so much interest in your dies xx glad C&C not stocking them as they just 'bump' up the prices so glad that the local retailers get a fair shot and supplying them to the public rather than having to wait until C&C have had the exclusivity xx Like the card but a bit too fussy for me - sorry but as always I can the design element and thought that has gone into making it xx GailT xx
Hello Sue, Love today's card, it is so fresh and delicate. My goodies have arrived, have just put them on to magnetic sheets and will be playing later, they are such gorgeous dies CONGRATULATIONS again Sue and stay on cloud nine as long as you like, it is so deserved.
Happy Birthday Christine. Norah enjoy your day out. Hugs to Steph.
Take care everyone.

Hi Sue. Today's card is so beautiful !! The raindrops on roses die looks great !! The card looks very pretty and delicate and as someone said earlier i think it looks like Victorian lace to !! I love the colours you have used and the central focal point is also very pretty. I love your interlocking circles background folder to. This is a really beautiful feminine card Sue. I am so glad your trade shows were such a success. All your dies sets are just gorgeous and I cant wait to get my hands on some more of them. Unfortunately I have to wait until I can save up some more money now. I recieved the classic bow set of dies yesterday and the bows are just sooo cute !! This is such a beautiful set Sue. I really want/need the filigree bow set now !! I have your Roses die set to but I have never made a rose before and I just sat and stared at them !! Please post some instructions for them on your blog soon as I really want to to make some but don't know where to start !!
I hope everyone is ok. Take care and lots of love to you all, from Tres x x x
Hi Sue - another stunning card. Glad it all went well at the trade show - we never doubted how well they would be received.
Hi Sue,
This is stunning, love how you have used the die and the limited colour palette really enriches the card.
Shame your dies wont be available on C & C as then they may have been at an affordable combined price, with flexipay lol! At least we are able to purchase them from Creative Expressions.
Love & hugs

Hi Sue,
Love the card - very pretty. Anyone would be over the moon to receive such a creation. Some of your dies arrived in time for the weekend, and had a brief play before getting poorly. They cut like a dream! Hope to have a real long play time this weekend. Congrats on the interest generated at Stitches and I hope to see a very different type of flood..... Sue Wilson products all over the craft shops!! Love Karen x

Message to Patricia Howarth and those that had hoped to see Sue's dies on C & C please don't despair!
Please do take a look on IconUK web site who are stocking Sue's new dies, they are the cheapest I can find, and postage is free (so that alone saves on C & C very high charges)
There is very little waiting too. I ordered Monday evening and they arrived well packed today, quite often they dispatch within 1 hour of receiving an order! I have used them for some time now and never had any problems, unlike C & C.
Very pretty card!
Hi Sue, this card is absolutely fabulous, gorgeous design and love the colour of the seam binding too x
Hi Sue
A very pretty card, glad to hear the trade show went well, a shame C&C are not going to carry them, they would be a great success.
Best Wishes
Julie Bee
This is Absolutely awesome .. xx
Wow this is a gorgeous card, Sue. My dies have arrived and I have been having a lovely creative time with them< must go and have another play.
So pleased that your dies have proved so popular Sue, you deserve your success. Today's card is beautiful, so intricate and pretty. Pat x

Hi Wilsonettes. Just wanted to say that Sue chose not to sell through C & C as she wasn't prepared to make everyone else wait due to C & Cs exclusivity clause. Once again Sue is thinking of all of us crafters rather than making £'s fast, bless her. We will all get a better deal from Joanna Sheen etc by paying a fair price and NO P & P. Flexipay always seems like a good option but when you look around it's not always the saving you think it is. I have fallen into that trap before now. Hope this all makes sense.Take care.
Really pretty card which would be lovely for mothers day.
Forgot to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY Christine x

Hi Sue
I am so pleased your dies have been so sucessful. Its about time you are recognised for your amazing talent in creating such lovely intricate dies and the beautiful and unusual cards you have been inspiring us to have a go at for many years. I do hope this is just the start of your future success.
As usual your card today is stunning. Patiently awaiting for your dies i ordered to arrive. Although disappointed the bow dies have sold out. I will wait for more stock to come in.
Love
Irene Allen
Hi Sue - My Italian dies arrived last week from Joanna Sheen and they are gorgeous and cut beautifully. I can also recommend IconUK for dies, including Spellbinders - they have always given me great service and there is no P&P to pay.
Hi Sue,
Beautiful card as always. TFS. I'm not surprised your dies have been well received, they're great. Mine arrived last wee and I'm delighted with the results.
Hugs,
Trish x. (Hillside)
Wow wow Sue your new dies are amazing, already bought some and they are better in real life, not stopped using them, I am so impressed. Todays card is beautiful, you sure are a talented lady
Hi Sue, the card today is fab, I love the composition and colour scheme, so refreshing. The dies are great and make such a difference to frame the flowers and vase.
I’m pleased that your dies are a success, what else could they be?
Craftihappiness to you all, love from Pearl
Love the card......such an elegant look Sue! Just wish your cards were a little smaller for those of us used to much smaller cards. Thanks so much for sharing your talent with all of us!
