Diagonals

Hi bloggers!  Welcome to day three of the die blog launch.  I hope you are enjoying seeing all the new designs!  Do you have a favourite yet?  We are starting out with a new idea that I had; Diagonally designed borders.  I love a diagonal cut on my cards (as you probably know), but found that somethings just didn't work well that way.  I have designed three, two that go one way and the last one which goes the opposite direction so there is a bit of versatility to them too.  There is also a place I have worked into the design to make a vertical cut if you would like to use them in smaller card projects too (I hate having to cut through a design!)  These come with an extra thin border that does not have a cutting edge so you can make them as wide as needed (if you lie to add mounting foam like I do, this is a must!)  I have used the Lavish Swirls here with it's border in this sample, but there is also the Love Hearts Diagonal and the Labyrinth Diagonal die sets (shown below).  Leave me a comment if you would like to be included in the drawing to win one of these sets.  Please join me back at 12 noon for the next blog post.  All for now, Sue x

Morning Sue, Pam and all Wilsonettes, oh you are onto a winner with these Sue, I love them and what a beautiful card you have made to show it off, this has got to be on my wish list, can't wait to have a play with the new dies.

I wish everyone good luck in the compo, but the blog is the most important as we are one big happy family who share so much.

Have a great Thursday everyone, keep safe, healthy and happy, hugs June Smith xxx

Cathie said...

Another wonderful day of seeing your latest collections. These dies look wonderful and will give a perfect diagonal cut. Don't know where you get all your inspiration from.

cr@fty said...

Good morning Sue
What a fabulous idea that only you would think of, you always lead with innovative ideas that others follow. I love this concept you seem to know what we need. I can't choose a favourite because I love them all. I have the Noble Rectangle die and it's bigger and lovelier in real life. I've been playing with scrap card to get some ideas.

Morning Sue, you card is striking as are the dies. These would be used an awful lot if I had them. I think I would layer them so the pattern was quite wide. Very special. Thanks Jane x

Morning Sue. WOW This is a beautiful card and loving the colour way. These are going to be very useful dies as i like to use my dies like this but find if you are making bigger card that they are not long enough so these little beauties will be perfect. Looking forward to 12 o'clock to see what you are going to tempt us with then. Until now you have not dissapointed as all the cards have been little masterpieces showing your new dies to perfection.

Another great set of dies.Like slanted Striplets lol! Of course, you could use them on the opposite slant by nipping into the pattern slightly so very versatile.

Steph Cotterill said...

Hi Sue. Very unusual. Lets see how long it takes for other companies to follow suit !! My most favourite's so far is the Noble with its large frame, Keflonia, and my MOST favourite is the vine set from yesterday, simply gorgeous, but as Ive been 'told' what's to look forward too I dare say I will add more to my list of favourite's !! Given up reading everyone's comments as giving the suprise's away was a REAL spoil for me.
Have a great day Sue and thanks for such a wonderful blog and kind and over generous heart.

Rose in Chester said...

Hi Sue,
Wow, you have really thought EVERYTHING through when designing those diagonals. I love the idea of an extra thin border and the facility of making smaller cards, too without compromising the design.
The card is beautiful, right up my street - as is the die which should be winging its way to me as I write.
Can't wait to see what you've done with the other diagonals.
Hugs, Rose

Very clever idea. The card is really striking but simple - elegant. Wasn't sure at first but like the Greek island background yesterday, now I've seen them, I need them! I was supposed to be saving this month but I can't see that happening! I'll never be rich. But you never know I might be lucky!
Love and hugs to all, have a good day and see you back here at 12. Love Alison xxx

What another lovely start to a very very cold morning.
Your colours are a real wake up treat and your diagonal dies look very interesting. I would love to see more examples of them being used.

Hope everyone is managing to keep warm and safe in this very very wintery morning.
Hope to see you all at 12.00 noon. I have to go Bday presssie shopping. I thought I'd got rid of that pesky robot thing but it's back with a vengence this morning.

Sandra said...

Good Morning Sue & Friends,
WOW, JUST WOW!!!!!!!!!!
This card is CAS heaven, that splash of red, just works so well! This die set is perfect for those quick and easy cards that we all need to make at some point, you think of every thing Sue, like some of the others said, you are the market leader, it always seems that other companies soon follow suit. How many Companies made their version of the Bow die, none as exquisite as yours!
Janet (Echo ) your card is on display today over at the 'coffee shop' today, maybe you could pop over and take a look. It's well loved already! Hugs xx
Cameeli, you are missing out big time on Sue's launch,
I am missing your daily visits Hugsxxxxxx
Well I am absolutely exhausted today after Sophie & Lucy's birthday yesterday , but it was worth for the two smiley faces?
I will return at 12 to see your next exciting launch!
Hugs to all!

Anonymous said...

Hi Sue,

Lovely card - that touch of red behind the fancy panel really highlights the design...had to enlarge the pics of the actual dies - I'm guessing they work like the striplets, yes?...the additional narrow frilly border die is a real bonus, thank you for including one with each set, makes the sets so so versatile...

It's going to be murder to choose which one to buy first!...lol

karenlotty said...

Now you're talking! What a perfect new idea - diagonal dies My crafting skills are OK (sort of) and CAS cards are my favourite thing to do So these will be perfect to add to my collection

Wonderful idea, so pleased with all the dies we have seen so far, don't know how you do it

Glenharon said...

Good morning Sue and my Wilsonette friends,
What a beautiful card Sue and for me just the right amount of black in it. Having seen one of them in action now maybe they are a needed set now. They really make a difference the pattern staying up the right way and not sloping off the wrong way.
I was at my old school friends' house last night and while looking for my phone to put something in it so that i wouldn't forget(the memory is not what it was). i found my gel pads that are suppose to be for the balls of your feet but i use them on my sticks to help cushion my hands on them, anyway normally they stick no problem, well would they last night.....no. I just said that i would wait until i got home and adhere them with double sided sticky tape when away her hubby goes and brings in the biggest widest roll that i have ever seen. It must be 2" wide and 3" thick, so just imagine how long that is going to last and that wasn't a new roll. The lovely Andy gave me the roll to keep and said that he would get me more if i wanted or needed it, wasn't that kind? I went up to teach her how to knit or more to the point how to cast on, increase, decrease and cast off. My friend can knit just and no more if someone casts on and does all the other things for her but what is the use of that, she needs to know these basics for herself. Someone cast on and ribbed the bottom of a back of a babies cardigan for her when her grandson was born, but left her to flounder and get disheartened because she can't do anything else. I have given her a plan of action in that i will start her off with a pair of mitts as they are small enough for her to see her coming on and getting somewhere, but also gives her the basics that she needs to learn. Maybe the fact they are small and knit up relatively quickly for a new knitter she will be hooked or needled into making more things.
Hubby is off today and tomorrow with a hired van to take things to the tip like mums old doors and skirtings and such and to move Kirstens furniture across to her house. I know what is coming before it even starts today in "What are you doing today as you could be doing......." boy does he make me tired before even starting. He can't see the little but often approach works better for me than the all out assault that has me knackered with in the first half hour.
Anyway i will see you all after hopefully.
Love and crafty hugs
Norah (Glenochil)

Hi Sue. What a gorgeous start to todays releases. This card shows off one of your fantastic Diagonal dies a treat. Once again you have looked at just what is needed, rather than simply bringing out the same old type of dies time after time. You really are an inspiration in all that you do Sue, thank goodness you are kind enough to share it with us : )
Norah, it is good to hear from you but make sure you don't overdo it today. Campbell will have to either do it himself or be patient won't he!
Sending my daily hugs to everyone.
See you at noon : ) Take care.

Your creativity really brings something different to the dies market Sue - there is always something unique and novel and not just variations on a theme. Love the swirls.

A brilliant idea Sue i don't normally bother with slanty designs as i'm not happy normally with the result so at least one of these is a must, Johanna

These are great. So glad that you can cut them down for smaller cards, (which my granddaughters like to make). I think my favourite one is the Lavish Swirls. Looking forward to next blog.

Hi Sue
What a brilliant idea and how clever to be able to use the die vertically as well. These are very versatile and I think all the designs are gorgeous. Thank you.
Bye for now.

Hi Sue, a gorgeous card. These are so different to other dies and beautiful.

Unknown said...

Sue, at first glance I must admit I wasn't sure. But after looking at the pic of the dies I started to get lots of ideas in my head on where to use this kind of die. 😀
I love your blog, YouTube vids etc for learning your techniques and getting inspiration.
Regards
Louise. X
