Lots of love from Patricia xx
Sue almost as favorite as the last die at mid day, I love it and you have made a super card with it.
Beautiful set or corner dies and flourishes. Look forward to tomorrow.
Kate from Kendal
Absolutely gorgeous :) Can't wait to see the finale tomorrow!
A very elegant set as you said Sue. Also a year round one as they could just as easily be little flower blossoms as snowflakes.
Hugs Helen, Derbyshire.

Hi Sue,
The last die set of the day is as beautiful as all your dies presented till now. Once again you created something that shows your talent and meticulosity and it is ending up on our long wish lists.
Cannot believe tomorrow is the last day of this incredible blog launch. Thank you, Sue, for all your great designs.
Hugs.

Gorgeous and so so different from other die sets of yours Cover the snowflake with a different flower and hey presto it's not Christmas anymore
Really love these. I've loved this blog launch. Such brilliant ideas. X
Hi Sue.
Some more pretty flourishes. My 'must have' list is getting longer.
Regards,
Evis McCarthy
Hi Sue, a nice die, but I like the Poinsettia one better as I think its a bit more delicate. However I think both dies are really useful dies and will get a lot of use.
Wendyx
Evening Sue and all Wilsonettes, a fabulous die set to finish today's samples, love it.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs June Smith xxxx
Hi Sue, I'm on time for this one! I had to enlarge the picture to see all the beautiful detail on the Snowflake Flourish & Corner dies, they are lovely. I think with some judicious placing of flowers they too could be used all year. Another lovely day and I cannot imagine what you have left to show us tomorrow but I'm looking forward to it.
My apologies if I have missed anyone's news but it is quite hard trying to catch up on so many comments.
We have had rain today but I hope those still with sunshine have been able to keep cool.
Frances
Another great accessory set xx
Whether golden or silvered these dies debossed (these and previous) are a lot versatile and so nice! Hope to win one set :-)) With love Isabelle Cimbali from Lausanne Switzerland
Very pretty and this embossed detail on the dies is very different from Lianne Morrison in the uk
I love the deboss effect, makes the cut stand out even more, adds more definition....just love the pearly background you have made, keep telling myself to try this....A really beautiful card, how you have used the different dies to get the square effect in the centre is lovely...thanks Sue...luv Ursula xx
Hi Sue
This is another cracking one. How do u do it design make.

Hello Sue,
Another fabulous card and a die set that I am sure will be very versatile. Like several others I think I prefer the Poinsettia set. One is classic where the other is a bit whimsical.

Hello Sue,
I have a confession to make! This set passed me by when I looked at all the sets prior to the Launch! I noticed the Poinsettia one which is probably my favourite! It has popped up in a couple . However this is a gorgeous card and a useful Die set and I'm thinking!
Thank you for another lovely day! Did you order the sunshine to go with the Launch!! ?? Lol!
Love to everyone . Take care!
Love Myra ( Friend of Maureen!!) xx

Hi Sue, another beautiful Christmas Card. More gorgeous flourish dies, this time snowflakes.
Lovely idea, something different again Sue....
Energised Elizabeth expecting Christmas card inspiration
Good evening lovely Sue and her crafty crew!
What a cute set of dies, love snowflakes and the deposed detailing is particularly appealing. A fantastic card which really shows these dies off to perfection. I feel like i am running out of superlatives, there literally hasn't been a die set that i havent desired, you should be immensely proud of your achievement Sue, this is one of your best launches yet!
Yep, you guessed it, ive been playing catch up all day again, phew!
As Frances said, we have had the clouds descend again and the temperature drop...ive even heard the odd rumble of thunder! But call me brave....or stupid!.....i decided to venture out for a spot of retail therapy. I wish that i could say that i had been splashing out on the new launch but no, i was seduced by a set of red GHD straighteners, a pair of killer heels in shocking pink suede AND a new pink jacket! I've been a BAD, BAD girl and my credit card has been admitted to intensive care as a result and the prognosis is not looking good:-)
Maria, Darcey and Brodie are really well, they are grateful for the drop in temperature i think. No little presents thankfully, i think the weather makes them slightly more lethargic and less likely to hunt because it involves far too much effort!:-) Where are you off on holiday too? I hope you enjoy it and that your pain is better controlled after the change in medicationxxx
Yvonne, how is Dillon faring today? Is he struggling in the heat? Its really tough on our furry friends when the mercury rises....hope you've got plenty of baby talc for all your sweaty crevices too:-) Speak to you tomorrow honeyxxx
Can't quite believe that tomorrow is the last day of the launch, it has passed so quickly! I am really looking forward to seeing what you have in store for us, i have so enjoyed seeing all of the samples in particular, it has inspired me to get crafting again for sure.
Huge hugs to all my blog besties, hope you are still enjoying some lovely weather.
Love and crafty hugs

More corner to collect. beautiful card.
Hi Sue,
You've given us a heavenly flurry of snowflakes this launch and what a delicate delight these corners and flourishes are!
Krafty Runner x
Hello Sue,
Well I was totally wrong in what I thought the 6 pm sample and die set would be but I'm not disappointed in the least. It is a gorgeous set of dies, unique, versatile and stunning. I love how you have used it on this card as corner embellishments and also to frame your focal element.
The debossing is stunning. Love it Sue.
Frances I've been struggling to keep up too and wouldn't like to think I'd missed anyone out who needed a hug. It's been heartwarming to see so many people commenting though and I wish each and everyone of them good luck for the prize draw.
Dorothy I hope you have got through today with out too much heartache, but expect it's been very hard. Gentle hugs for you.
Laine, can I come shopping with you please? We'd have a blast. Pink is my all time favourite colour and to get shoes and a jacket in pink is just a dream. I did get some pink shoes last year when we had our gang meet up. Diane twisted my arm saying buy them! So I did. You just need the handbag now. If you decide you don't need them after all just parcel them up and send them on to me!
Love and hugs for all

Good afternoon Sue and the Wilsonettes,
The snowflake design is another needed design that will fit in with the rest of the snowflakes that you have brought out but now we can add that little bit of jue ne ces pa(excuse my french, its rubbish) to finish off our cards and would look really pretty on boxes as well or tags making a Christmas gift more polished with just that wee tad extra on it. Ohhh i have been enjoying this years christmas dies, there is just something so very different about them that i can see a place for them in my die collections. Thank you lovely lady for using that brain of yours to create such wonderment
love and crafty hugs
