Good morning all! Let's start the day off right with a double dose of dies to win! The Mosaic Poinsettia and the Classic Poinsettia die sets are on off this hour. These sets can be used separately or combined as I have done here on this sample. Remember those twigs from yesterday? I just love the way they look when used with these poinsettia dies too, don't you! The Classic Poinsettia has matching stamps to it as well. Leave a comment here to be entered in the drawing. The next post is up at noon today. All for now, Sue x

Hiya Sue
The poinsettia dies are adorable and look good in red and black. They can be used any time of year .
Your colour combination is as usual 'spot on' and I love the use of twigs.
All in all I just adore everything you've done
Hugs Sue xxx
Sue another super card, the poinsettia dies are wonderful, another must have die. Xx
Love the new dies these poinsettas are gorgeous.
Helloooo Sue and the Wilsonettes! Ooooo another gorgeous, gorgeous card made with a gorgeous set of dies! Love these! Like Heather has said very useful the filigree set. You could put any colour card/glitter card or a sticky sheet using the iced snow, diamoned sprinles and Glacier ice on them. Ooooo wow, lots of uses and not just for Christmas! I forgot to mention about the twigs yesterday and how useful they are as they can be used for all four seasons of the year! "Thank you" so much again Sue for this chance to win one of your beautiful dies. Sending love and hugs to you and to your family xx Sending love and hugs to the Wilsonettes who need love and a hug today too. There's plenty to go around so take as many as you want! Good luck everyone anyway! xx Love Karen xx

Good morning Sue, well poinsettias are Christmas and will be most useful dies. The filigree adds that extra touch though to be honest I'm not sure about the black, think I would have kept to red!! love from Jackie D

WOW another beautiful card Sue, you really are a talented lady.

Hello Sue,
I love Poinsettias, how clever of you to design two sets of dies they are beautiful. This card is absolutely stunning and I love the way you have used the twigs and Holly from yesterday's dies - this one is a real WOW. You just keep on adding to my wish list!!!!!!!!!!

Cameeli, lovely to see you back, ARE. YOU okay?
Nanna Tina, happy birthday to your mum.
Steph, thinking of you, you seem to have so much to cope with, yet you are always thinking of others and sending such thoughtful and caring messages. LOL
Janet, your carpet better could be in demand - in fact you could do a hire service with it!!! Someone very close who I have to say is normally lovely and patient .......BUT yesterday he asked had I entered some information on the Internet? (He doesn't touch computers) I have until midnight to do it I said, And would do it before bedtime, his reply was you always leave things to the last minute...... Hang on a cotton picking minute, We are staying at our daughters, I am looking after ... sorry we are looking after her three children, I had been doing the washing, cooking, had washed the youngest ones hair which is very long and takes time, at that point in time was helping the 15 yr old with her on the RS homework which even I had to look up on the Internet...... What was he doing, and have been for at least two hours, sitting in an armchair reading the paper - Grrrr Men don't you love them!
what a lovely card! I might have to buy the twig and poinsettia dies.

Hi Sue dies and card are beautiful
LORRAINEH XXX
The card is lovely Sue as are the dies. Ann, France
Sue, These dies are absolutely fabulous and I love this one - especially the background and cannot wait until this is realeased now!! I have been waiting for all of these dies since I knew they were coming and so had all my pennies saved up to buy them - and my order has gone in for all 15!! Please do not put me in for the draw for one of them as I will have them all. I just had to let you know how fabulous I think they are though. They are so different to the rest on the market. You really know what rocks our boats.
Hugs
Elaine xx
Hi Sue and everyone,another,super card.
Ita.
I love poinsettias, I always have some pots in the house over Christmas, just makes it Christmas for me. I already have a few poinsettia dies, but the Classic and the Filigree are calling out to me. I would love to be so lucky as to win them, thanks for the opportunity Sue xx

Now this is a definite must-have. I have the mosiac bw and mini bow and they go perfectly with this flower, and the plain one is so useful as backing or on its own. I like the card you've used it on as well. Loving this new set of dies. Pity I don't have many cards to make for Christmas any more.
Hugs Janet in Kent
I just love this another really stunning card not too much and not too little - I just got my dispatch notes so very excited!!!! Although I just couldn't have them all this time!
Hi Sue, Todays cards are absolutely beautiful. The dies are unique, so delicate and different from other Christmas dies but are not just for Christmas!
I love the poinsettias. These are a must have. Beautiful card!
Wow Sue - this is my favourite yet! Another one for my pinterest board I think! Your cards are always the ones other people repin, and I don't blame them - you are so talented and inspirational! Thanks, Susan x
Hi Sue,
I love seeing all the poinsettia at Christmas time, it really sets the tone for the season. This red and black combo would be ok for a male card too. Men are always so difficult to buy for.
Hi Sue
I love this card, the poinsettias are beautiful, keep up the good work.
Ann xx
I have a poinsettia die. Can't wait to see if it will match this stamp. That would be great because I love this look.
Oooh - Love the black with the red! Makes the flowers very grown up and sophisticated. x
Hi Sue and everyone! I want these die's ,regardless of pennies or not I will get them somehow because they are gorgeous!! Beautiful card Sue!
Pam-pleased to hear about Robbies progress,hugs to you both.
NannaTina- happy b-day to your mum,wishing you both a nice day.
Dianeandchips-hope all goes well and Steph too,gentle hugs to you both.
Wheelybad-hope your day is okay,enjoy your G.C.I'm only got the cuttlebug so can't really use S.W EF but maybe one day.....
To all Wilsonettes,take care
Hugs Maria x
Another lovely card. Love the twigs added in.
Hi Sue.
Here I am playing catch up yet again Sue
Well what is there to say but absolutely fabulous.
I adore these poinsettias. They are lush
You continue to inspire
Thank you
Theresa xx
Merry merry Christmas with Sue OMG it is beautiful.
Maxine T
Oooh these are so lovely think it's going to be hard to choose x
More stunning dies Sue and can't wait to get my hands on them!
gorgeous just gorgeous
Hello Sue. I may have missed the deadline but just wanted to say how gorgeous the poinsettia dies are and how beautiful the card. x
Hi Sue
Really lovely card, I love poinsettia, I have 2 different poinsettia dies already but I can see me adding these... not just yet though! Still bouncing inside bout my bargain G.C. (thank you nectar points!)
Pam, that's the best news about Robbie, sending him all the virtual high fives in the world. He's a total hero. Hope you're ok too x
Cameeli, hope you had a great time in USA and you've recovered from such a big trip x
Steph hope the injections go well, will be thinking of you today x
My best wishes to al the Wilsonettes having hospital treatment, whether in patient or out patient x
Extra special hugs for baby Leo and his family, and for Rory too. FE colleges have SENco's who'll work with Rory and his School to make sure his transition is as smooth as it can be. Sure he'll be brilliant at computers as it's all logical and organised. Plus it's a bit more grown up than school which I think he'll enjoy a lot x
My dear Wilsonettes, please forgive such a short post but I'm suffering as a result of Man. Mr WheelyBad obviously thought he'd put the food blender back together properly (I think you know what's coming) but he hadn't screwed the blade in properly. Looked fine as I put fruit, yogurt, juice and seeds in it, started it, it got the contents nice and liquified begore they started seeping out the sides. I had to stop it, pull the plug and try dump it all in the sink before it covered the work top. I failed. 40 minutes of mopping up later and I'm finished. Alex has a nice surprise awaiting him now when he arrives to clean, a dripping blender unit on the drainer. I do love Mr. W. and appreciate all he does but I must remember to check every he's touched twice before I use it!!!!
Big hugs to my special Wilsonettes, hugs too for the international and the new Wilsonettes. I wish those in any kind of pain a bit of relief and offer a careful hug. Hugs too for Sue, our inspiration xxx

Hi sue love the card and the dies are great

Every year I say that I'm going to invest in a poinsettia die, but am so disorganised that I leave it too late and end up panic making my Christmas cards at the last minute. Maybe THIS will be the year that I organise myself, as these poinsettia dies have me more tempted than ever :-)
Nic xx
Hi Sue
The poinsettia and pine bough go really well together and the poinsettia is quite different to any other dies out there.
Gorgeous card and luv the black/red poinsettias and like you say the branches look fab used with the poinsettias xx GailT xx
Lovely card. The filigree effect of the mosaic die is just beautiful.
Great news about Robbie's progress, Pam.
Altogether a brilliant start to my day
Take care everyone.
Hi Sue
If only real poinsettias looked as lovely as these (just how DO you get them survive, let alone to flower again???) and you are quite right, the twigs with them are beautiful!!

Beautiful Poinsettia dies! Your card is gorgeous, as always!!!!!!!!
Blessings, Pat
The twigs and branches are the perfect finishing touch for the gorgeous flowers. Really Christmassy!
It's getting more and more difficult to discide which of the new dies are my favourite!! I love the trigs added to the poinsettias and adore the holly sprays.
I love it, love it, love it!!!
So very very lovely, how well they would adorn any Christmas project. Thank you Sue

Gorgeous Poinsettia flowers. Love the filigree set along with the solid petals, beautiful just beautiful.
Love the new dies sue - I can see lots of variations using the poinsettias.
Nana Tina, thank you for all the hugs you have sent for baby Leo - we haven't seen him yet but he is doing really well - Alison says he is about two mobile phones long!!!! They are able to have him out of the incubator to nurse so that's really good for all.
Thank you to everyone who has sent encouraging messages - you are all wonderful.
I will try to catch up on all the news soon and send love and hugs to everyone.

Hi Sue. Love how you have framed the sentiment with the leaves, etc. The more I see of your dies the more I want them all!! SueL x
This card is amazing, & I really love the 'twigs' forming the 'border'
Stunning card Sue, truly beautiful.
Hi sue, a bit late in the day but better late than never. Christmas is my favourite time of year with Halloween a close second. I already have on order some of your beautiful new festive dies but not the flowers - until I saw your card today xi have been rooting through my old spellbinder dies and have sold quite a lot on eBay to fund my new purchases. I will get the poinsettias by hook or by crook but it would be so nice to get them for free so I can buy more xx hugs Chris Linnett x fingers crossed x
Beautiful card of course. I am very excited about these poinsettia dies. They are just the right size.
Love all your cards. This one is stunning and your dies are a must have really love the holly ones too xx
Gosh, these really jump out and get you don't they. How wonderful to be able to have the choice of just the plain (if anything you design could be plain)or the mosaic flowers. Another winner, Sue. x
Love the way these Poinsettias look. Really like the twig dies. Could see die cut owls sat on them
Luv
Karen xx
Wow, stunning card Sue, those poinsettia dies are gorgeous

My first choice was the filigree and you had to do this card! Although I will stick to my first choice, I am setting my eyes on this one for a future order.
Why do you have to be solo talented and do such an Awesome release? Have some pity for us money challenge!!!!
Cariños,
MarÃa Alba
Hello Sue. My first comment on your blog, but wanted to say .... This card is absolutely STUNNING!
There's so much Christmas crafting going on at the moment that I'd kind of already become tired of Christmas (something I never dreamed would happen) - and all the Christmas crafting (especially on Create and Craft) was kind of now making me bored to tears as everything had become the same as the rest. Everything had that same look about it.
However - that all changed when I opened up my email and found your card today. It totally blew me away. I actually said "WOOOOOooooWW!" out loud and sat studying the flowers for ages, just drinking them in and falling in love with them.
A truly beautiful, outstanding card Sue. Very well done. ~ Cobs. x
Lovely card with gorgeous details! Love these pretty dies! The poinsettia is gorgeous!
Another set of lovely dies and love the card too!
Hi Sue
Just awesome dies.
Cathy Daniel
Hi
I just luvvv these new dies
Cathy
A delight. Poinsettias just shout Christmas.
Love the color combo that you have used on this particular card.
Really shows off the new poinsettia dies.
Cheers
Trina
The cards are just stunning... any option to get the dies in the USA?
The mosaic poinsettia looks so good with the 'plain' one. Not that I like to use the word plain with anything related to Sue Wilson!x
I know I'm late posting, but l had to say how lovely this set of dies is. Love them.
