Finishing Touches

Hi bloggers!  Well this is the final day of the blog launch, but there are three posts today which will showcase the nine new Finishing Touches range.  Starting with the Scribble Flowers, shown here, they are a wonderfully whimsical set that will add just the right accent for your cards.  The new Scribble Flowers are finely cut layered flowers that can be used flat or raised for a totally different look.  The Laurel leaves have also been used as accents on the card shown.  I'm sure you will be able to find so many uses for them as well.  I do hope that you have been adding your comment along to each of the blog posts as you go, but you do have a few days to get caught up on any you may have missed along the way!  The next blog post is scheduled for 12 noon today, so please be sure to have a peek then!  All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue, a lovely card not only showing the new flowers but highlighting the beautiful butterfly striplet. Scribble flowers, string flowers (can't wait to see how they come out} and laurel leaves - we *need* them all and they are vying with each other to get to the top of my list.

Hello Sue

I would say the flower and fern (leaves) are essentials to have. They have so many uses. Your card is so nice. Looking forward to watching you on Hochanda. GOOD LUCK

Good Morning Sue!
I've just about made it! My friend pre- ordered the butterfly striplet. I loved it too and love it even more now that I have seen it in action.
Your flowers and foliage are always so beautiful and easy to use . I said to some friends earlier in the week that I didn't need any more flower dies - Sue - you've done it again. Hey ho, hey ho, it's on the list they go!!
Love the laurel leaves too!
Happy Birthday Maureen - have a lovely day with the family! Do try to behave a little! Xxx
Patricia - Happy Birthday - have a lovely day with Hazel and don't eat all that Turkish Delight at once! Xxx
Pat L - Have a lovely Birthday!
Sue - have a great day and hope all goes well tonight. I won't be able to watch Live as going out but will watch later online! I'll be with you in spirit! Xxx
To all you lovely ladies, take care. I'm so sorry some of you suffer so much. Sending hugs!
Love Myra xxx

Good afternoon Sue. Absolut love the String Flowers, the Scribble Flowers and the Catkins. Going to buy them all. They are really beautiful and will be so useful. Flowers just put the finishing touch to so many cards. Thanks again for the wonderful inspiration.

Looking forward to seeing you tonight and tomorrow. Good luck for your debut show!

Unknown said...

Hi, Sue, I can see chevrons in that diagonal flower die, no problem, and perhaps even folded ones too, though not sure if that would work, until I tried it. Love all the dies you have released in this last few days, but sadly cant have them all, so will have to choose. the mini butterfly striplet is a fav, and I think that one will have to come in my direction, as for the others, it's hard to choose.

Unknown said...

Oh these are cute! Yet more beautiful and versatile designs - what a treasure trove this launch has turned out to be!

Unknown said...

Hi Sue
Hope your having a wonderful day.
Great dies but love the foliage especially.

Glenharon said...

Good afternoon Sue and the Wilsonettes,
Your string flowers make beautiful flowers Sue and I really like the plainness of this card with of course the beautiful butterflies striplet and them in the lovely blue to pick them out. Gorgeous card Sue and equally gorgeous dies making it possible. Thank you Sue for another inspirational card made to make our day.
Having just returned from my friends I am now like a drowned cat(Persian) that is as they have quite long hair as well. Lol. It is such a lovely day for the ducks up here today, I'm glad Kirsten had her barbecue last night when it was dry but fine(well it was cold if you come from somewhere other than Scotland and Canada (lol). Her fiancé's uncle came with baby Harry's namesake great grandfather with his daughter so it turned into quite a party. The wee fella had this baby grow on that was dark blue with what looked like a waistcoat, white shirt and a red dickie bow, ash he looked so cute and so dressed for diner which for him was out of a bottle, fair enough. A good night was had by all so that is all that mattered.
Have a good day everyone
Love and crafty hugs

I really enjoy this card Sue! The lacquered blue butterflies on the striplet are gorgeous! The new dies look very interesting and I am excited to actually own the Scribble Flowers die!

Unknown said...

I don't know how you keep doing it, you seem to know exactly what I want.

wwilloww said...

By now you know I love your creativity but I just figured out what it is I love about your completed cards (besides the exquisite dies you use to create them of course!!!) It's your white palette with just one other color. I call your style "Exquisite Elegance" and that about says it!!!

Karen K said...

Good Evening Sue

Beautiful card. The Scribble flowers are absolutely gorgeous. All three die sets will be so useful. Someone mentioned the black border. I had to look back at the card as, despite my aversion to using black on my cards, I hadn't even noticed the black!!!
Take care everyone.

Txcowgirl said...

Hi Sue! The new dies are just gorgeous, every one of them. Love the little scribble flowers, so cute.
Congratulations on your new channel, Hochanda in England, but does this mean we won't be seeing you anymore in the US on the rival channel? I wrote C & C to see when your next appearance will be, but they haven't responded. It's sad to think we only had you for a short handful of appearances.
Best of everything to you.

Oh! Love this one Sue so pretty and spring like. The blue of the sky with little butterflies
fluttering about, then lovely light flowers blowing in the breeze with just a sprinkling of leaves. How appropriate and clever. One can never have enough flowers or butterflies :)

Hi Sue

Very pretty, I like them a lot. They make a lot more sense seeing them used than glancing at the packaging. Think these will be popular as they are a happy medium between realism and stylised.

Hi Sue,
glad to say I found Hochanda in time to record your slots to watch later.
Just had a busy afternoon with our local WI, we had an afternoon tea event to celebrate the WI 100 anniversary, need some feet up time now so perfect for watching your programmes.

This card is so pretty with the Butterfly striplet and the flowers and leaves just add a finishing touch.

Love
