Necessities/ Expressions

Hi crafters!  How about these Vintage Handbag dies to go with your Vintage Perfume bottles!  Now you have something to use to really go to town on those girlie cards!  The Handbags have been designed so that you can mix and match the different handles to them.  There is also a separate outer cutting edge on each of them so you can back them in another colour to really show them off.  There is just so much versatility to them.  Shown here in this sample, you can cut them in gold or silver to give them extra glamour as well.  I have also included the new Birthday Wishes die set in this post.  This die can be used both as a positive and a negative as there is no fall away pieces to it.  Leave a comment and tell me what you think of them.  You may just end up being the lucky winner of one of these sets!  Day six starts here at 6am with the Finishing Touches.  I know you are going to want to have a peek at them!  All for now, Sue x

    Hi Sue and everyone

    Such adorable little bags. A great idea to have interchangeable handles too. You think of everything! Like the card. The birthday wishes die looks great on it. Didn't realise it was one of those 'no waste' dies. Even better.

    Love Helen xxx

    Thank you for an extra special Easter hope you're day has been as lovely. See you at 6am. Love n hugs xxx

    Another interesting day - thank you. Always love Finishing Touches so expecting lots of temptation tomorrow!

    Evening Sue. WOW What a card to finish day five of your new launch, its a beauty. These Handbag dies are stunning with so much you can do with them by mixing and matching with handles and a seperate die to make so many different coloured bags what more could a girl ask for, well i do have a suggestion is there any chance you could make some vintage shoes to match the Handbags and Perfume Bottles just a thought lol. I do know you are a busy lady and you will have your own ideas. Looking forward to day 6 with your finishing touches range. Hope you have had a lovely Easter break Sue.
    Best Wishes.

Lovely designs on both the handbags themselves and the handles to. A really great idea to be able to mix and match the bags, handles and colours to create your own look with these fab girly "must have" items. Definately "must have" dies for me, so I will be adding them to my wish list. I see you have used another of your fab new Background Embossing Folders to. This one is lovely to.

    Good evening lovely Sue and her crafty crew!

    This card is superb, i love every element used from the lightly gilded EF, Indonesian Borders placed diagonally across the card and accented with pearls, to the beautiful Samantha die which frames the handbag die fantastically....these handbag dies are fantabulous and I MUST have them.....being a self confessed shopaholic, handbags are a particular weakness of mine and to be able to buy three for such a bargain price is a dream come true:-) Can you really top this Sue? The real problem is, from my bank accounts point of view, that I am certain you will. There isn't even one die thus far that I can say no that's not for me, it's a real dilemma prioritising the most crucial ones....if only I could win the lottery or find myself an ailing sugar Daddy:-)
    Pat, Frances and P, my Mums Colonoscopy is scheduled for Tuesday, tomorrow she has to take the laxative solution and only consume clear fluids all day....its a nasty process and worse than the procedure itself but we have bowel cancer in the family with both my grandparents dying from it so its a necessary evil. Thanks for wishing her well, I really appreciate your kindnessxxx
    Elaine, i hope the weather was kind for Andrew and Helen and he managed to get his tackle out for a play....is fishing better when its raining? I wondered if the sound of the rain hitting the surface of the water attracted them towards the surface and made fishing easier....I hope that you are well too my dearxxx
    Myra, please send my love to Maureen, i hope her fracture doesn't require surgery and she can come home soon....what a kind bunch you are organising a wheelchair for her during your trip:-)
    Pam, glad to hear that you're feeling better and the medication is helping, hopefully you will be fighting fit again soon, sending hugsxxx
    P, how is Saffron, hope she is still holding her own:-) Our fur babies are the only real gems that we need, who wants diamonds anyway:-)
    Hope everyone has enjoyed their Easter holidays and was blessed with at least a little bit of sunshinexxx

    Lovely dies Sue. Looked at the these Ally Pally and wasn't too sure but now I have seen them on a card I have changed my mind. Looks as if you have used the Enchanted Gold Gilding Polish on the embossed background. I bought this last week at Ally Pally and used it today and love it. Looking forward to tomorrow to see the next lot of dies. Might have to watch the Hochanda show on Carchup as my be seeing my Grandson. Will wait and see.

    Wow Sue!
    What a fantastic card, it ticks every box for me, fabulous design, opulent colours and an amazing focal point with the Samantha used as a backdrop to this dinky handbag. The Birthday Wishes is a must have, lovely font and a nice size. I'm going to have to review just which die set is now in pole position on my wish list. Thank you for yet another lovely day.

    Myra do you think we will ever be able to resist the lure of a designer handbag, think Sue has hit the nail on the head with these beauties.
    Laine, good luck to your mum, not a nice procedure but well worth it to make sure everything in fine. I think each of us would carry Maureen on our shoulders if it meant she could be with us but it's looking less likely now, we are all so upset to think she may not be fit enough to meet up.
    Love and hugs for all

    Thanks for sharing and giving us a chance to win these fun dies. Good luck everyone!
    Looking forward to day 6!

    Laine - A very special hug for your Mum. Hope the result of the test to be a good one.

    Another hug, a big one, for a “sophisticated, classy, beautiful, versatile and timeless (really???)” lady ... we know who ... Reading your post the other day, I felt that you need a hug, honey. Glad you found a truly friend in Samantha :).

    Hope everyone had a lovely Easter day!

    I like the Birthday Wishes - and how clever, to design it in such a way that the negative can be used too - so often, I think I'd like to use the "waste", only to realise that, in cutting out the image, it also removes some of the waste so that the negative image is incomplete.
