Special Occasion Collection

Hello my craft friends!  I have added a new collection called Special Occasion to my die line.  I have always wanted to design some Wedding dies, but these can be used for more than just weddings.  Don't forget Anniversaries too!  First up is the Happy Couple and the Arbour Gate.  Both sets are shown here in this sample too.  If you would like to be entered in this drawing, just leave me a comment on this post.  I would love to hear what you think!  The next post is scheduled for 12 noon and I will be showing some more from my Special Occasion Collection.  I hope to see you then!  All for now, Sue x

  13. Oh, I'd got my passport ready and euro's gathered together from our last trip to Skiathos before I got poorly (probably not worth much now anyways) instead I'm invited to a special occasion with flat hair, pj's and no slap !! What a change of direction Sue, this is something I'd not have expected from our Sue amazing frame die Wilson. I love the arbour gate die and yes it will be so useful (the thought of a font, candle, and ornate arched church windows have just come to mind) for the next special occasion die collection as Christenings are still big here in the UK and I get asked for quite a few cards. I love the couple, but it's such a pitty you couldn't have released this idea a few years ago before other companies had this idea (I really hope this comment hasn't offended you) it has to be said that this is the prettiest gate I've ever seen and can be used for other occasions and I'm sure it won't be too long before the artists snip and cut 'ouch' at this to find other shapes like butterflies etc now that will be interesting to see what comes from this gate.
    Off to put my passport away for now - needs renewing anyway and make myself presentable for the next special occasion I maybe invited to - got plenty of time as I'm not quite sure who this body belongs to after yesterday !!!
    Have a great day Sue xx

  32. GM Sue. Love the arbour gate. Do the gates open or do you have to snip it to get the gates to open I am wondering?

    ReplyDelete
  33. Sue,

    These are so lovely but please the children's inheritance is shrinking daily! I want them all.
    I have some wedding day already but ai think ai must have these too.

    ReplyDelete
  34. Oh Sue, they are beautiful, absolutely stunning. My middle daughter gets married in June, these dies will make a wonderful card.

    Either of the die sets would make fab wedding invites. Perfect for anniversaries too (mine is next month)

    By snipping the die cut apart you can also make Mr & Mr or Mrs & Mrs wedding cards/invitations.

    A very useful addition to your range of dies, I love them.

This unique phenomenal card is the perfect example of a little saying a lot, you have paid so much attention to detail I can look closely at the Bride & Groom & imagine them expressing their love for each other (I kid you not as it shows in the pose of their faces they harmonise so well together, so romantic). Well done Sue & I can see these special additions being as popular as all other dies in this incredible & out of this world launch x x x

    What Can I Say Sue Other Than I'm stunned With "The
    Awesome Happy Couple And Those Truly Tremendous Arbour Gates"
    You Could Back Them An Cut Down Centre Line And Place Happy Couple Inside
    Or Place A Wonderful Sentiment Inside Someone Commented On Christenings, Which
    This Die Would Be Just Perfect For That, Also Wedding Anniversary Cards As You've
    Mentioned It's A Die I "Must Have" Now I've Seen It Cut Out, I Do Hope There Is Enough Dies
    To Go Round Lol!!!!
    We're Now Off To Take The Boys To Be Clipped So I get A Couple Of Hours Peace And
    Quiet To Do Some Crafting I've Got Quite A Lot Of Cards To Make For May Before My Holiday....

  126. The gate die is lovely and I can see many uses other than weddings for this. Being the cynical old spinster that I am, I looked at the wedding couple in a different way - hope that others may not be offended by my warped sense of humour when I say that I see this die being used in a slightly different way! I have noticed that it is becoming common in the US for divorce cards ....... I will let you use your imaginations now.

    That being said, this is a lovely card that any newly wed couple would be delighted to receive.

Just a shame you have brought them out now as i made my sons wedding invitations for his wedding two weeks ago i would have so loved to have had these to make them, never mind i still NEED them lol.
    Best Wishes.

  137. I think people who make a lot of wedding stationary will find this range of dies SO useful. The gate could be used for so many other occasions too. See there was no need to worry Sue, I knew everyone would love what you've poduced! Love Sarah

  143. Good morning Sue, I saw the ornate gate die & while I loved it felt it would be too big & have limited use! Why can't I think outside the box like you?? It looks lovely behind the circle & certainly makes for a lovely card. Can't wait to see what is next and like Steph would love to see a font & church window.

  155. Good morning Sue and the Wilsonettes,
    What a beautiful card Sue and that Arbour Gate is stunning with its special notched spaces for where to embellish it. Any couple receiving this as a wedding card would surely fall in love with it. I think St Peters gate to heaven must look something like this as he would need a big set of gates like this for everyone to enter. Thank you Sue for such a stunning die set and for all the work that you put in to bring your dies and creations to life.
    Tracy flower, wishing you all the very best for today now that you have finally come to the end of a very long dark tunnel. I know that you will probably feel yucky after todays treatment but it is so little in comparison to what you have been through. Sending hugs your way flower just to keep you going.
    Crewe Trish, congratulations on putting up with your other half for 42 years, i hope you both have a great day together.
    To all my lovely Wilsonettes that need a hug they are on their way to you,
    love and crafty hugs

  158. I wish I'd had these dies when making wedding stationery for my son's wedding a few years ago. Effective. Wedding stationery is very personal but it's highly unlikely that anyone on the planet would find these dies unsuitable.

  163. Morning Sue
    Such a beautiful and delicate card which would most certainly be a treasured gift to any newlyweds. The intricacy of the Happy Couple and the backdrop of the Arbour Gate
    These are the dies which caused a little gasp of surprise (as well as much oohing) when I first saw them. I will admit to being a little thrown off guard when I first saw them as it would appear that they are specialised and quite 'niche'.
    Now that I have seen you work your magic I am all in a dither as I am now picturing so many possibilities of the wonderful cards which would be a delight for anyone to receive. They are most certainly objets d'art x
    Thank you for sharing your skill with us x
    I am itching to let my creative juices loose but sadly I will have to exercise patience as that oomph which I had hoped would return today has obviously decided that it is going for a mini break as oppose to just an away day - nothing new there and at least I can concentrate all my efforts and the little energy I do have on the big reveals of these stunning new creations x
    Still in bed and George bought me a lovely cup of coffee before he left for work. Not intending to indulge in any activity for now as the warning signs are screaming - rest up x
    TRACY - thinking of you hun - you are Superwoman - lots of love x
    TRISH - 42 years - Happy Anniversary x
    WHEELY - I feel for you hun - gentle hugs x
    BETH - you are building up the tension for this rather exciting tale of posh do's and awards - good luck with the swanky outfit hunt x
    LORRAINE - huggles x
    LAINE - speak soon hun x
    It has taken me forever to write this comment and it isn't that long before I will need to do another so will sign off now.

    Hi Sue,
    beautiful card made with beautiful dies. The figures actually look like real people, not like some dies on the market.
    I bet you were in 7th heaven when you designed and crafted with them.

  165. Hi Sue
    One happy crafter here as I preordered the happy couple but now I think I have to have the arbour gate as well. Fabulous card and I have pinned them all so far. Congratulations on your new Facebook page too, you are amazing, I don't have a Facebook page but used my husbands to like your page

    Tracy, I hope by the time you read this your final treatment is over and you're doing a little happy dance. Rest up now and great ready for that lovely few days away with your hubby in Pitlochry
    June hope all goes well today and you'll soon be back.

    Hugs and best wishes everyone

  187. Hi Sue
    Lovely card. The bride and groom are gorgeous but the star of the show for me is the stunning arbour gate! Can you snip it to make it open and put the figures on the inside? Wow! That would be fabulous. Fingers crossed all over blog land for this one I think, including myself! Thanks for sharing.
    Have a great day everyone.
    Hugs.

  188. Hello Sue,
    These are lovely dies but not ones I would get a lot of use out of! They are just lovely for people making cards to sell or for anyone making lots of anniversary/ wedding cards! I love the date though and the couple look very elegant! Thank you. Xxx. Myra Y
