Hi bloggers! Welcome back to the final post of the launch day. We are showcasing another die set in the Industrial Chic collection; the Butterfly & Dragonfly die set. Who says that steampunk can't be pretty?? The butterfly and dragonfly have been designed with cogs, wheels and pulleys throughout to give the steampunk feel to them. They can also be used to accent any sort of card as you can see from this sample, they don't have to be grungy to work! If you think you might enjoy winning this set, then you only have to leave a comment to be entered into the drawing. Well that's it for day number one, but we have seven more days coming up, starting here at 6am tomorrow morning. Hope to see you then! All for now, Sue x

Hello Sue,
Now I can finally say that I really like this card. The design of the dies here is different but something that I wouldn't mind trying. The steampunk has been quite cleverly incorporated into the butterfly and dragonfly. The pixie powdered gives a lightness to the design.
Looking forward to what you have for us tomorrow.
Beverly
Hi Sue
A beautiful card and great dies, love these (another fabulous background too).

Hello Sue
Now this set of dies are more me certainly different.Pam that driver certainly didn't help your blood pressure.
Evening Sue and all Wilsonettes, a lovely die set to finish the first day.
Stay safe, healthy and happy hugs June Smith xxxx
Hi Sue,
Love, love, love these.

Morning sue.
I adore the butterfly and dragonfly.
Annamieke from the land down under
Hi Sue
Have really enjoyed seeing how you have used the dies today, I think they would be an asset to anyones collection. I can see them being quite feminine if softer colours are used. And who doesn't like a butterfly?
Regards
Heather R Oxfordshire
Hi Sue
I love the butterfly and dragonfly, there are so beautiful.
Kate from Kendal
WOW Sue, what a great way to complete today's offerings. Love these dies and they'll make a brilliant addition to my butterfly dies collection. Hugs xx Pauline in RSA
You can’t go wrong with butterflies and dragonflies. This set is so different but so pretty. Love it

Hello Sue.
Thank you they are brilliant and a great card too.
Take care Kitty.
2 ingenious designs, love the use of the cogs etc, & a great card as usual.
Janet Wilson in Menston
Hi Sue, now this card I do like and the butterfly and dragonfly hardly look like steampunk at all when treated this way. I'm sorry but I really did not like the previous card.
Laine - good to see you back earlier but I hope you are going to manage more than one comment before disappearing again:-) Look after your i-pad, you had a lot of people very concerned with your non-appearance.
Frances
Hi Sue, love this card, the butterfly and drangonfly are brilliant.
Take care, Jess xx
Hi Sue wow wow wow these dies ate fantastic I love them & must buy them! Can't wait to see what surprises you have for us tomorrow
Wow! I have never seen steampunk dies with this lovely feel!! Amazing and versatile!
Great card with them!!
I love butterflies on cards, so having a more masculine one is a great idea
I just love these Industrial Chic dies.
Very pretty Dies & a lovely card.
Michele
These are so different I love the idea of steampunk butterflies These would be right up my street!
I meant to say on the previous post that the Die you showcased would make perfect wings
I love butterflies and I think these are my favourite dies of the day, so unusual xx
I am so engrossed in these beautiful new dies that I keep forgetting to say how lovely the cards are too. Butterflies and dragonflies are an essential of cardmaking, and these are so out of the normal box. I also think these will add a lovely feminine touch to what can be very masculine looking cards.
Hugs Helen (stitchingranny)
Hi Sue, these dies are the best yet; for me, a must have. Love and hugs,
Alison D x
Lovely 😀
Another lovely addition to the industrial set of dies.
L just love butterflies Sue and this and the dragonfly are no exception. Brilliant card. Thank you. Wonder what treats we will have tomorrow.
Hi Sue
Gorgeous card and the two dies are stunning!
June/Consett
Such pretty dies, perfect for the girls.
Lisbeth
Wow Sue, such lovely dies and the card you have used them on is just marvellous. I'm late making comments because I've been caught up in Halloween, but the sweet bags I made up are almost gone so started on the biscuits and when they have gone the lights are definitely going out and the witch outfit is coming off!
Lots of luck with the latest release which looks really good.
Lots of love and craftihappiness everyone, Pearl from Kinver xx
Stunning card, these dies are beautiful.
Rosemary xx
Hi Sue

Beautiful dies.Thanks for chance to win.

Love these, Sue! I really struggle with this style of card but love making them. With dies that are so great to use will make it so much easier.
Lovely card Sue, the butterfly and dragonfly dies are stunning. As you say they don't have to look grungy. Secretly loving the word Dream, it's gorgeous. One thing for sure you have all your fans thinking outside if their comfort zones. Looking forward to tomorrow's posts.
Laine, nice to see you back, it's been too long.
Hospital went well I think, the waiting list is up to 18 weeks, they are going to try to get me moved up the list. In the meantime keep taking the meds.
Donita, poor you with no power, what has caused it, weather etc. Take care, keep warm,look after yourself.
Sleep well folks tomorrow is another day.
i really like these. and again versatile dies, hugs xx
They are so pretty and unusual. I just love them.
Hi Sue. Totally love this set. Butterflies are always a hit but love the twist of a steampunk version. Sue xxx
Hi Sue, these butterflies are so cute!!!
Have a good one!!!
Loopy Lyndaxxx

Oh, wow!
What a beautiful card, Sue! And the dies are stunning, too.....delicate steampunk! How do you do it??? Nanny Jo N Ireland
Hello Sue,
A wonderful finishing touch today. A real beauty.

Hi Sue, a butterfly in any guise is ok by me, but this one is amazing can picture it now either done in pastel colours or for true steam punk metallic. Need this die set!!!! Stunning card x
Hello Sue, How lovely to see a 'different ' butterfly die. This will be a real winner.
Love this card.
Hugs Brenda xxx
Hi Sue
We can never have enough butterflies and these are something a little different
Pat x
Good evening lovely Sue and her crafty crew!
Oh how gorgeous! This die set is just so adorable and so, so very useful and differs to other butterflies and dragonflies currently on the market...i love the detailing and how you have combined the cogs etc to create something truly beautiful yet different. I think that even at this early stage of the launch, todays dies could very well remain my favourites because they are just so different from your usual style and really quite inspiring. This lovely card shows just how versatile this style of die can be, it shows that you can create something delicate and beautiful as well as something grungy and distressed.....the pixied background is stunning by the way, i love the colours, and the DREAM lettering is also worthy of a compliment due to its unique shape to the lettering.
A fabulous first day to the launch Sue, congratulations because you have made so many crafters very happy indeed with your creations....christmas lists across the land will be getting extended as we speak:-)
Thankyou for the kind welcome back i have received from my blog besties, i have been absent due to some technical difficulties with my i pad that have now been resolved:-) i thought my absence would have long been forgotten in the scheme of things so i am so sorry Frances that i may have given some cause for alarm, however i am back now, armed and so very dangerous, in fact you will all be wishing for the calm serenity of my absence before long!:-) i promise to behave for the duration of the launch though in order to give Sues new dies centre stage billing, it will be a challenge but i will be strong:-)
Pam, glad to hear that you are edging closer to your operation date, hope you have been well and coping with the rigours of work. I am sadly so far behind with all of the news so please forgive my obvious ignorance but i will try and get up to speed soon.
Carmen....or should i now call you Dorothy!!??!!?.....i have obviously missed something in my absence but i also notice that your profile pic is of a very handsome pair of red stilettos, is there a connection to your new moniker? Now you know how much i love my shoes, however with well over 200 pairs at present i would have to change my own name to Imelda Marcos!:-)
Donita, oh you poor thing, i cant imagine how awful it must be for you having no power or fresh water:-( Surely the utility company must offer some compensation if you go longer than 24 hrs without it? I wouldn’t cope without my daily bath and Sky Tv at my fingertips so goodness knows how you are managing....what has caused it? Is it bad weather?
Myra, hello my dear, hope you are well and keeping your nose clean in my absence:-) I know that between the two of you it is Myra whose the troublemaker though, have you managed to stop her running amok in my absence?:-)
Saba, it sure sounds like you’ve had a busy week, hope you enjoyed your families visit, it must be hard living so far apart but what fun when you can meet up again though:-)
Elaine, how are you and Andrew doing? Hope that you are both wellxxx
Maureen, i see that George is keeping you out of mischief at the moment by testing your skills with a paintbrush, what a brave man he is....brave or foolish though is anyone’s guess!:-)
See you all tomorrow my lovelies, it will be late on as i have an appointment with the hairdresser and god knows i need it!
Love and crafty hugs
Laine1972xxx
Hi Sue what an I say but WOW.. I love the Industrial Chic die. Its such a stunning design and your card is beautiful. The steam punk theme is amazing and I love how the Pixie back ground works . I would want to triple emboss this dies with some copper embossing powder. I have a feeling I will be giving hints to Santa.
Wendy
Hi Sue
Wow what a beautiful butterfly and dragonfly, love the card too, you are spoiling us.
Love Diane G xxx
Hello again Sue and all
Love your butterfly and dragonfly, so unique and yes, still pretty. So clever.
I have just had a you tube message that your first card is up so off to watch the video and see how you made that amazing card
Hugs

Hello Sue
I love the artistic butterfly and dragonfly set and your gorgeous card and background.
The dies are so different from your usual style but really are beautiful!
A great start to Day 1 for you, Sue.

Wow. Love both these dies, and the card. Just gorgeous. Thank you Sue, look forward to tomorrow. Xx
Hello Sue, well I love butterflies and dragonflies and these two are so beautiful. Steam punk meets lace. Gorgeous Sue love them both Carol x
Butterflies and flowers always useful .Love these new dies. Laura O Springfield
Hi Sue,
Now, I do like these two dies! Very original. Love the card as well. Great 1st day, can't wait for the rest.
Pam, pleased things went well and hope you don't have to wait 18 weeks for your op. Sounds like you had fun on the A19 ( not!). It's a road I really don't like I have to say. A friend of mine used to live in Elwick and to get back home from there I had to cross over the two lanes - honestly talk about taking your life in your hands! I think drivers pariticularly around the Stockton, Hartlepool, Sunderland stretch seem to lose the plot and forget about everyone else on the road!!
Donita sorry to hear about your power problems, hope they're sorted soon.Love and hugs to all, Alison ( craftyAlimecca) xx
Butterflies and dragonflies with cog wheels- they go so well, but you'd never think it.
Jan

Evening Sue. Gorgeous card to close day 1 of your new launch. Beautiful background and your grungy butterfly and dragonfly are great fun. Looking forward to tomorrows surprises. Xx
Absolutely brilliant Sue so lovely and the card too, Johanna Ash
Good evening Sue,
Fabulous card, you've managed to make grunge look feminine, not an easy feat but you have cracked it with this one. Love the unusual design of your butterfly and dragon fly, who would have thought a butterfly with cogs would work well together. So looking forward to see what delights you have in store for us tomorrow.
Pam I hope you don't have to wait 18 weeks for your op, that seems like a very long time. Glad all went well with your pre- op assessment.
Carmen I too noticed your fabulous shoes, I love shoes, sadly I don't have as many pairs as Lorraine though. Wonder what size she takes, maybe I could borrow a few pairs.
Donita I hope you are not still wandering around in the dark.
Love and hugs for all
Saba xxx
I must admit I do find these funky little flying bugs fun. The letters BTW, caught my eye first. I am looking forward to getting the scoop on those. Love anything with pixie powders....maybe steampunk & pixied die cuts. I know that if I buy these, I will be the only one in my crafty bunch to own butterflies with wheels.
Pam, good to know you are getting through the process. Donita? no power as yet because you are not here. Bundle up. It is getting cold.

Hi Sue,
I can see that this will sell out early. And often. Go ahead and re-order from the manufacturer. You could probably order a whole shipping container of these and still sell them all.
Oh, what wonders you have given the world!
love,
Donita
Love dragonflies and butterflies. ..these are just so quirky and wonderful. Lovely card and like your lettering on the dream.
These two are so lovely. Need to add them to my must have list. AliJ Sussex
These two dies are amazing!! Love the butterfly and the dragonfly!!!
Beautiful butterfly and dragonfly dies. I've got loads of butterflies but nothing like this and I don't have a single dragonfly die, so this set is straight on my wish list.
Hi Sue, love the intricacy of this set, even though the design is mechanical it makes both the butterfly and dragonfly so lacy. Another fab background, and the word dies are great too. Bx
Ahh definitely my favourite so far you card shows them off beautifully xx
Love the card - a wonderful blend of typical Sue and steampunk. Great.

Absolutely fabulous.
Love butterflies and dragonflies anyway but these add another dimension.

Just beautiful - these dies are so unusual, lovely examples of something the same and yet different. Another two to add to my wish list. So many ideas!

Fab Sue - love the fact you have included a dragon fly too! They are so few and far to find.

Just love these two fliers - they look so light and airy that I'm sure they would just take off with a whirr as soon as they drop out of the die - I would have to shut all the doors and windows to stop them escaping into the wide blue yonder!!
Izzy
Hi Sue
Another gorgeous card.
Love the butterflies, these could also be cut up and the cogs used for a men's card.

Hi Sue and all.
Another great card Sue. When (if ever) do you give your brain a rest?
I almost didn't comment today as I took ages to prove I'm not a robot on my previous posting. Between my low vision and current stress I'm not right up to par. I hate these robot things but here goes. Love to all. Marie P.
Butterflies and dragon flies what's not to love! xxxx
Lovely Sue. A definite different take on butterflies and dragonflies.

Oh... Butterfies...may favourite, never thought I would like them in steam punk... but I do!! Thanks for the chance. Linda
Just love these dies, the butterfly and the dragonfly are so pretty no-one would think they were steam punk used on their own.
Lovely. Just my style and so versatile
Hi Sue,
Love this Industrial Chic Collection. Another beautiful card. The butterfly and dragonfly are so versatile.
Your Industrial Collection is a must have on my list. Love butterflies and this one is over the moon.
LavenderBlue from California
I love these dies! great idea.
Lovely card Sue, love the industrial look of the dragon fly and the butterfly. Great to see you expanding the kind of dies you design!
Lori Ritchie from Canada
I can imagine these will look wonderful in metallic colours - but you're right, they don't have to be grungy to work! They look very delicate in the white.
