Blog Launch Christmas Dies- 2014 Christmas Angel


Hello bloggers!  I am pleased to announce the release of my Christmas dies....finally!   There are 15 dies in all that we are launching.  Every day for the next three days I am going to be featuring cards from each of the different die sets. We are starting with the gorgeous new 2014 Christmas Angel die set.  I think you really need to see the lovely detail on her so I am including a close up pic as well. This die set has seven extra dies of gifts that she can hold.                                                               I am going to be doing three to four posts each day through Wednesday.  Each post will also have at least one die set as a giveaway contest so there will be multiple chances to win (15 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 many 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! 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 is the die set 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 Monday afternoon 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!  See you at noon!  

The Tuesday video and the Wednesday Card Giveaway have been postponed this week due to the three day Christmas die blog launch.  All for now, Sue x

GM Sue (just!) I dont know what's happened to my normal routine this morning - we decorated the conservatory at the weekend and the floor was filthy - so I ended up steam cleaning it twice over! I then went shopping to get a refund on some curtains I bought - came home, had a coffee, logged on adn thought OMG - haven't seen Sue's blog today - most unlike me. Anyway, back to normal service now - love this angel - I advanced ordered 2 of your dies - the holly spray and pine bough - this angel also caught my eye but I didn't order it although I'd love to win it obviously! by the time Press submit on this comment the next posting wont be far away - loads of ironing to do this afternoon so will take a break to return - looking forward to your seeing your festive creations

Hello Sue,
What a beautiful angel, what a gorgeous card, this is a definitely must have die, for now it has to go on my wish list, oh I wish....... Just purchase some of your second release dies and they are looking lovely to work with.
One of them was your new striplet, the die one you used for the gilded striplet card, I did take my take on that on a congratulations card for our grandson who is due to start University in September he really loved it. Thank you for the inspiration be back later, love Brenda xxx

fluffycat said...

Hi Sue, later than anticipated as I decided that whilst I was in town I would do some shopping. Managed to get a birthday present for my very-hard-to-buy-for niece so it was worth it but I'm late to your party!
Love the angel, I have seen all of the dies on pre-order but decided to wait until I had seen what you did with them before ordering. I'm still getting dies and stamps from your last launch so I hope these last long enough in the shops for me to get some later on :-)
Must dash up to your second post now.

Gorgeous card. Just love the angel die. Great idea with all the separate dies that she can hold.

Wow what a beautiful card, love the new dies. Thanks for the opportunity to win one.

Wheely Bad said...

Hi Sue

I get emails from a couple of shops often mentioned and have loved seeing your new designs. What's better is seeing them on a card. Pictures on web/ packaging can never give a true idea of what a die looks like once cut and crafted which is one reason why your blog is so wonderful. I rarely buy a die or E.F. without seeing what can be done with it. Congratulations on such stunning designs and I can't wait to see what they look like when crafted with.

Some apologies. .. I wrote a big post yesterday and google managed to wipe it when I signed in to my account (I'd cleared my cookie files that morning). I had no time to post again but I read and appreciated comments from Norah and Mrs. B. Also congratulations to yesterday's winners.

I have some news to share with all my Wilsonette friends. I managed to get a lightly used 2nd hand Grand Calibur, as you know, I've wanted one for a while now and especially after falling in love with Sue's E.F's. I had a voucher, some savings and right place, right time. I even had enough to arm myself with a raspberry plate and the C.E. embossing plate. Means the kitty is a little drained for this month but don't care! Will be doing some ebaying to make a space for it and fund some A4 E.F's! Happier than a pig in the smelly stuff. It's my Christmas come early.

Think all the excitement has left me a few spoons short today, so I shall leave you with my wishes. Special hugs for Cheryl and anyone else having or about to start treatment. Special hugs too for Pam and Robbie, baby Leo and all his family, Theresa, Yorkielass June, Janet Ecco, Lynda, Lyndsay, Maria, Myra, Steph (hope the mojo is back), Julie, Heather and for anyone ill, in any type of pain or who just need a hug. Welcome hugs for all the new and international Wilsonettes too. I love seeing all the countries listed. Super special hugs for Sue of course, who gives us a gift every day. Sue, I hope Mom is well and you are too. Billy sends his regards to you both xxx

Best wishes to you all,

T xxx

Gorgeous card using a beautiful die.
I haven't been able to comment regularly in the last few weeks but having a bit of free time I thought I'd try to catch up with what everyone has been doing. Such a lovely surprise to find a new die launch. The catch-up will have to wait as my phone is almost going into meltdown with so many comments.
Take care everyone.

Hi Sue, I am sorry it's late but I have been at work all day. What can I say! I have seen a sneak peek of these dies and I loved them then. Now I have seen them made up as card well what can I say.
