Finishing Touches

Hello there my crafty friends!  Welcome to the final day of the Nov. 2016 die release blog launch!  We are starting out with the Autumn Leaf Trio this hour.  This set has three different leaf shapes with their matching outline die shapes too.  Having both the solid and the outline allows you to create beautiful cards such as the sample shown.  Leaves are one of those finishing touches that can do so much for a card or they can be the entire focal point for your card, giving you massive amounts of versatility.  If you like the look of these, just let me know by leaving a comment on this blog post.  The next post will be up for your perusal at 12 noon.  Hope to see you then!  All for now, Sue x

  14. Good morning Sue and crafters all,
    Happy Guy Fawkes Day!!!!
    How lovely these dies are, perfect for making backgrounds. It must be an omen for me to get these dies, as when I was out shopping yesterday a falling leaf landed on my shopping trolley and I brought it home!!!!!
    Pam - Peter is still the same, still waiting and not in any pain which is a blessing.
    June Smith - hope blood test results are ok and you soon get your new hearing aid soon.
    Love and crafty hugs to all, be careful with the fireworks 💥

  15. Morning dear Sue.
    I love this sample. Such an appropriate season to bring this die to us. I'm sure there are so many crafters out there that are hooked on the Pixie powders rubbing their hands together itching for their die to arrive or can't wait to buy/order it so they can get down and messey but these leaves lend themselves to so many background techniques that over the coming months you and John will show us (even our Phill has become cleanly addicted lol) to the powders. This will also find its way onto Andy's list, but beneath all the new beautiful shadow box dies, not because I love it less than the accessories, I just know that thanks to your outstanding die designs this past few days, I will be able to sit or stand as I do and make cards that will appeal to all ages and genders with your shadow box additions, even when I don't feel particularly well, the only decision to be made is what goes where within the apatures, a no brainer for me ! I see guilding flakes of all colours, caught in crystal, embossed with mica powders glistening away beneath the negative leaf. I'm really looking forward to these Finishing Touches die collection popping up in future blog posts of both yours and Johns.
    It's been a wonderful launch as sad as it is that this is the last day but I know there is so much to look forward to not only in that we see the final selection but what is to come in the weeks/month's ahead. I just know you will end this launch with a BANG 😊 and a much nicer and more appreciated bang that we'll have later tonight and into the early hour's !!
    Thank you for a beautiful Autumnal start to our final day, an absolutely gorgeous card and die xxx

  23. Hello Sue, love leaves ,and these are really special as you have given us a skeleton of the leaves which is almost ,
    Impossible to find. Love the card, I would use mica powders as I don't have pixie powders.
    Yesterday used your baby onesie die and the little accessories bundle to make a card for my neighbors who have just become
    Grandparents, it turned out beautiful.

  62. Morning Sue. One of the best things about autumn is the colour of the leaves on the trees and you have captured this perfectly.
    Beautiful card to start the last day of your launch. Are they pixie powders I wonder.

  75. I just love the simplicity of this card, yet it is stunning. This might have to go to the top of my list, have just made a stamped tree card & these would have been most useful as accessories. (Maybe some smaller leaves in another launch might be useful?). Love the way this card has been made & think it is one which I have to copy if you don't mind Sue. Can just see so many possibilities. Thank you Sue.

  97. Hi Sue
    Another beauty , would be so useful for the men and autumn cards .

    June, i hope you have turned the corner too , glad you got a better night.

    Pam ,i tried to get the radio station without success im afraid , so sorry i would love to hear it .

    Andrew went for his prescription yesterday as his wife had a phone call to be at an important meeting with her work, but half of what he wanted was not available , it took over half an hour for the Chemist to sort it out to get it ordered for today , people were coughing and sneezing and a poorly little child vomiting { yet the powers that be tell Andrew not to come into contact with anyone who is ill ?? } so easily said eh ? you just can not always rely on others to collect and do for you even the best plans have hiccups.


    Sending big hugs to all who need one, if you are at Bonfire parties have fun and stay safe .

  123. Good morning Sue and lovely ladies,
    What a spectacular start to the day. Now my favourite list is getting longer!!! I have loved all your new dies Sue but this last couple of days have really ticked all the boxes for me in terms of my own style of crafting. I have a real thing for cards with dimensional apertures that you can look down into and these beautiful leaves work brilliantly. Been trying to work out how you got the delicate outlines inlaid, did you use acetate? Gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous!!! I'm so excited to see what Santa might bring this year.
    Elaine, hi, I'm not sure what Andrew's situation is as I've only picked up on your posts part way through when I was able to get back on the blog. If it helps, could he order his prescription with the pharmacy and get the items delivered? Hope he's OK xx
    June, so glad to hear you had a better night xx. To sleep through would be wonderful. Can't remember when that last happened, at least one of us has to get up in the early hours to let the dog out to the loo and at weekend when we realise that one of the boys is still out on the town we can't get back to sleep until they come home.
    Have a lovely day everyone, very blustery here. Sending hugs to all my crafty friends and prayers for those who need a little extra.
    Love and blessings

  127. Hello Sue,
    I do love these leaves! The Die set would be very useful for children's craft work also. I had a leaf punch one but it broke through over- use I think! These are lovely and so detailed. Another one joins the List!! Lovely card also.
    Hope everyone had a good night!
    Sorry Andrew had such a struggle to get his prescription yesterday! Hope too he doesn't pick up any nasty bugs!
    Beautiful sunny day here today!
    Love to everyone, Myra ( Friend of Maureen!!) xx

  128. Hi, Sue,
    What a beautiful card! I love the colours on the leaves. Tiff die set is going to be really useful, especially with the variety of shapes.
    The last day off the launch has come around so quickly, but what fun it's been for all of us. I'm looking forward to the remaining posts as I'm sure you've got something wonderful in store for us.

  131. What's not to like - I L O V E these leaves. I have always enjoyed stamping leaves and the autumnal colours can be extremely effective particularly when set on a dark background. So happy to see this set of dies. Thanks.
