Hi crafters! I have two die sets on offer for this post; the Indian Ocean Borders and Corners as well as the Indian Ocean Tag Duo set. The sample shows how you can use the borders and corners to create a lovely surround for your cards and projects. Both an inside corner and an outside matching corner have been included in the set for maximum use and value. The tags are nicely sized to add for layering or are suitable for those smaller cards you may enjoy making too. Both sets are designed to compliment the other dies in the Indian Ocean Collection but work equally as well on their own. Please leave a comment to be entered into this drawing and don't forget to check back for the next blog post. It is scheduled to arrive at 12 noon sharp! All for now, Sue x

the border and corners dies are fabulous.
They remind me a bit of Art Deco and I´m a great fan of it.
By the way the your card is stunning...

Morning again Sue and all Wilsonettes, as Rolf said above, they remind you of Art Deco, which is exactly what I thought so will complement the Art Deco dies some of us already have. another winner in my book.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx

Love the card and the dies! xx
Really unusual shape for the corners. Love it!x
Hi Sue, I really like this card. Yes I know there is a touch of black but I love aqua and white and I see them first. The borders, corners and tags are so useful and I really like the Art Deco feel to these ones.
Frances
I like the art deco look of these dies, really pretty
Love that. What a clever idea to make them into such a lovely border. Beautiful.
Love the dies and card
Beautiful set Sue. Xxx
Lovely corners! I sometimes struggle to find something other than gems and flowers to finish off the corners, but these are perfect. Nanny Jo. N. Ireland
Hi Sue - what really clever dies this are as I can see they would have many uses. I think the tag dies would be really useful. Aqua is one of my favourite colours, especially with the touch of black, the card is great. Best wishes
YvonneMayxx
Love the way that the border and corners have been used, great to be able to have a die with multiple uses.

I love the beautiful teardrop shape in these dies, so versatile. The card is a winner in the gorgeous aqua, lovely.
June, yes I will be cheering on our paraolympians they are even more amazing than their able bodied counterparts. I still have the Opening ceremony to catch up on.
Yvonne, I wish you well on building up your body's form for your coming excitement. I need to do the same as although I am not going to Ally Pally (maybe next year) I am going on holiday and visiting a craft show whilst away. Good luck to both of us. Did I see your boys have made up? I do hope so
Sending my usual good wishes to Mick, Andrew, and anyone else in need of get well vibes and to their friends and family in supporting them.
Will comment more later xxx

Hi Sue
Oh wow - and she does it again!!
So fabyoooooolussssss, elegant and with a beautiful art deco feel to it x
Managed a cuppa and a bowl of muesli between this post and the last. Hoping to possibly wash and might even get dressed between now and the next. Lol x
I have come to the conclusion that trying to comment in my usual longwinded style during a launch is going to prove a little tiring - for you as well as me so am going to keep it brief for now - I can hear so many sighs of relief x
Problem is I do love a good natter and as I have said this blog is so wonderful and makes one feel like you are chatting to friends. What can I say, I like to talk, love me or loathe me that's just the way I am!
At least I know Laine loves me despite what she says and Sue absolutely adores me - after all I am her favourite. Lol x
OK lovely people. Not long til our next treat. The sun is shining and the sky is the most stunning blue colour - perfect x
Lots of big love, hugs and happy thoughts to you all x

Gorgeous card. Very Art Deco which I love. Wish list is getting very long. Thank you Sue for all these stunning dies.
Sue your dies are awesome,always so many possibilities to make a stunning card,really love these latest ones
very art deco beautiful colours like everyone else my shopping list is longer and longer
take care all FIONA MCNEIL IN BARMULLOCH IN A VERY SOGGY GLASGOW xx
Good morning Sue,
I love how you can make a frame out of this Indian set of corners and borders as it gives yet another angle to the dies other than the obvious just across or down and stuck in a corner to pretty it up. This set would be a very useable set that could be for many different occassions. I don't know if it was intentional or it's my eye playing tricks on me but it has a very art deco look to it which is very popular at the moment again. Thank you flower for a lovely set that could make up to a lot of differing looks,
lvoe and crafty hugs

Morning Sue this border & corner die is a winner ,so many options. I love art deco style . Gloria (Sidcup) xx

Hi Sue
Corners, borders and tags are always useful and you can do so much with them, just wish I had a little of your design skills, just back from the dentist, had to have a back tooth extracted, and was told to rest so I'm delighted that there will be lots of posts from you today
Hugs and best wishes everyone

I have never been to the Indian Ocean. Well, here's my chance to at least create with its namesake. Myra from Florida
Hi Sue, had to go out so just catching up on your next set of dies, and wow were they worth waiting for. Great that they can be used on smaller cards as well without having to cut them down and loose some of the fabulous patterns.

Hi Sue,
Stunning card, very art deco looking which I love. Xx
I always seem to start my post with "WOW", but it's usually the first thing I say when I see a new die from you. I have most of the country sets and of course will have this. I adore the finishing touches too and think I have most of those - oh and striplets and gemini dies. Lol I dare not count them or I will give myself a heart-attack.

Dear Sue,
Your creativity amazes me forever! I love this card as the choice of contrasting color as the shade of corners, the relief, the original layout of elements ...the whole LOL very very pretty! So I have ordered, in the Frames & Tags Collection the die Charlotte (CED4319), which is, as the die Madeleine you used here, with 2 slots to pass a ribbon. I love the versability of these 2 sets too! Thank you Sue!!! Love from Switzerland Isabelle Cimbali
My first impression of this set of dies: Art Deco. I like Art Deco. You are so creative how you cut and re-possition bits and pieces to make an entirely different look using your dies. This gives us crafters so much more value for our money.
Such a beautiful card!
~Leanne Soares
Art Deco look to these dies, I love them and the way you used them in the card.
Lovely! The borders & corners look very 'Rennie Mackintosh', which I love. X
Lovely new dies Sue, your creativity amazes me every day. Congrats on your new releases.

This is great, I am such a big fan of how you have both backgrounds and corners, tags, and borders to all coordinate. You really think all the elements through. No one else does it like you do Sue.
