Hello there my crafty friends! Welcome back to the final post for today. We are ending day four with one of my favourite cards made using the Life Is A Garden die set. Shown here, you can see how lovely this set looks when used with the square Shadow Box die from the Sept. release. All the items in this set have been designed to not only work with the shadow box, but with the previous two sets shown earlier today as well. For those of you that love gardening or that have friends that do, these sets should be right up your alley! Leave your comment on this post and you will be entered into the drawing to win this lovely die set. Day number five starts here tomorrow morning at 6am. I hope you can join us back here then! All for now, Sue x

Great one for the guys, and all gardeners of course.

Hi Sue,
I just love this die set and it goes so well with the other two from today. The shadow box that you have created is fantastic. It just screams "Fall" with all of the autumn leaves and pumpkins. I'm sure this will be a favorite for many, I know it is for me.
Looking forward to tomorrow.
Beverly
Hi SUE

Dear Sue,
So fine! So useful! So great I already bought it!

Hello Sue,
What a great day! I loved every card and each and every Die set you have showcased! The really are multi purpose!
I love this card it’s perfect for so many people I know! Thank you!
Someone asked what a bushel was - it’s an old fashioned weight. Four pecks = one bushel. The baskets were mainly used for selling fruit! I guess you took your basket and when it was full of apples you paid for a bushel of apples! I love old words !!
Pat L - hope you enjoyed your visit to see the poppies - I think it’s lovely that they are being taken around the country. Not everyone could go to London but they did look amazing there. I think they should have kept the display up for a while longer than they did!
Have a nice evening everyone!
Love to all, Myra ( Friend of Maureen!) xxx
Another great die Sue. Lovely that they fit into the Shadow Boxes too, xx
Hi Sue this is a gorgeous card I love it. The memories of working in the garden with my granddad come flooding back. Take care. Hugs Jackie
What a versatile set of dies to win, the card looks great!
Hi again Sue, another fab card and dies. I love all the garden elements in the die set.
Hi Sue
Great card, and the sentiments would be so useful

Another stunning die set, Sue! I love the shadow box sets, and these dies are just perfect for it. Nanny Jo N Ireland
Another lovely card and another great useful set of dies.
Love this card and adore these dies. The sentiments are a definite must have, just perfect. Thank you Sue. Xx
Hi sue great set of dies
Another fabulous die and another one that can be used for the men in our lives. Thanks you for the giveaway. Linda
Great fun die xx
Hello Sue,
Love it. Fabulous font, fabulous accessories and a fabulous card, not surprised it's your favourite. I need the square shadow box die too, I've been undecided but not any longer, it's just perfect for displaying all the elements.
Sam I've been meaning to say thankyou for your brilliant explanations of all Sues dies, it really helps to stop me tearing my hair out when I can't identify a certain die.
Myra thank you for explaining the pecks, being relatively young I'd never heard the expression!
Love and hugs for all

Good evening Sue,
Beautiful card with beautiful gardening items. This is very apt for all gardeners & florists. Yvonne xx
Hi Sue
A beautiful card and great dies - most of my family would agree with this sentiment. I'm a bit later commenting because I'm spending some quality time cuddling Matilda - we are visiting our daughter for a few days. Matilda is such a good baby!

Hello again, Sue
A beautiful shadow box card and beautiful die set. All of your sets today go so well together and I can imagine a huge range of cards being created with both today's dies and those from previous releases!

Evening my lovely. Amazing truly beautiful both collection and sample.
Everything 'our Sam' has said about the biggest heart in the crafting world I second, there is no one quite like Sue ☺
Sending cosy Autumnal hugs your way by the bucket full.
Lancashire Steph xxx back in craftland with the biggest smile.
Aww i think this is my favorite from todays dies Sue , love the little tools and the dinky gloves also the lovely script is superb ,{ dig in you think of everything } oh i just love it .
Have a lovely evening ,

Hi Sue, A fantastic die set, and your card is gorgeous, ideal for a gardener.
Lots of love from Patricia xx
I love the way this die set works with the other 2 sets, very versatile. And those autumn leaves are just fab
I have SO many friends that love gardening that these would be just perfect for them, and the card is simply stunning Sue. How on earth do you keep coming up with such wonderful ideas? Love to all, Sarah
Hi Sue, love this brilliant card and the Life Is A Garden set is going to be a must-have along with the Wooden Garden Cart (or wheelbarrow) to go with my previous ones. I love the rake and other tools but for some reason I am really drawn to the tiny little gloves :-)
There are fireworks going off all around me as I type and although the two girls are in, Pippin (who is really a scaredy-cat that doesn't like noises) is cowering somewhere behind the sheds instead of being safe and warm inside. Maybe if a few more bangers go off it will be enough to send him indoors. I do wish people still stuck to the one night so that you would know when to keep pets indoors all evening. Hope all the other furry friends on here are tucked up safe and sound.
Frances
Lovely card. This die set is on my wish list after seeing it
Another gorgeous die set and fabulous card. A must have.

Fantastic idea of dies, lovely scene building, beautiful sample, thanks for sharing from Lianne Morrison in the uk
Hi Sue
A beautiful card those shadow boxes are super love your three cards today .
Catherine V94 xx
Oooh, I know several people on my 'card list' who'd love this gardening theme - fab set of dies and fab sample too. :)
Love this set, so useful
Hi Sue
A great card and die set for green fingered friends and family. Thanks for sharing.
Hugs.
Good Afternoon Sue. Another great set. Where are all these ideas coming from. No sooner do we see a " must have " then you throw us another. . Good job Christmas is on the way. Someone is going to be very lucky. Kind regards Ann Toppcards Leeds
Hi Sue.
Thank you a lovely card and die set.
Take care Kitty.
A lovely card and die set.
Such amazing card and die set! Love them! The Necessities release is just great!
Who could resist "Dig In"....that is worth the set alone even if the rake and gloves were not so adorable. I do have the square shadow box on my list. I am trying to get all the "squares" for my collection. I love square cards and if the postage is more, they are worth it.
Funny, I never realized that bushel was out of use as in a bushel of potatoes or apples, etc.
Have a great evening. Hope Pippin is inside with his friends.

Hi Sue,
What a beauty! Love the card but love more the die set. All today’s die sets go right to the top of my list. There is so much that you can do with them. Thank you, Sue for these amazing creations.

Another lovely set of dies. So many people I know love their gardens and this would make creating cards for them so easy. Thank you, Sue.
Hello Sue,
Love, love, love this die set, and I have a shadow box die!!!!
Saba, Myra even works in feet and inches, how old fashioned is that ha ha.
Pat L, meant to say that I went to a local museum which was an old pit, and they had part of the Tower poppy display there, it was amazing. I hope you've enjoyed it today. Walls painted, woodwork being sanded down ready for Monday. Hazel and Patricia are coming here next Saturday - will it be ready? No, it will be like Steptoe's yard!!!
Dorothy - I drool every time I see that picture of the red shoes, and at my age that's dangerous as they'll put me in a home!
Pawprintzx4 - bushel went the way of the sovereign and farthing!!
Fluffycat - the fireworks are going off here too, and have been for the past couple of weeks! George's brother and sister in law stay in France until the middle of November to miss Bonfire night as their Westie gets so agitated.
love

Good evening lovely Sue and her crafty crew!
Another fantastic die set, so versatile and so unbelievably cute:-) Loving the card sample too, the dies work so well with the shadow box and the sets from earlier today, congratulations on creating yet more absolute must haves for our die collections.
Frances, spinach you say? Yes, if i want muscles like Popeye:-) Poor little Pippin, do hope he comes inside soon...i’m Having a bit of trouble with Darcey too, last night she wouldn’t go out at her usual time and woke me at 12.40am to go out for the toilet:-( She didn’t come back until 3.30am so ive been running on empty today. Think i’m Going to have the same problem tonight because i can hear the bangers as we speak and that may be putting her off her usual routine....either that or the cold temperature!
Donita, love the new name Donuts:-), it really suits you....what type of donut would you be? I think I’d be a Krispy Kreme Custard one, a real classic:-) Hope you are enjoying being back on the grid again, we often take the simple things in life for granted, I don’t know what i would do without hot water and electricity........
Saba, so you are the same size as me, well isnt that unfortunate....for you! I wonder if you pretend to be my buddy just to take advantage of my shoe collection, i know your game:-)
Maureen, i am more than happy to share my shoes with you but how are you in 4 inch heels with that dodgy hip? Just promise me you wont get any paint on them.....oh, i forgot, you’ve been paid to stay out of Georges way havent you so no chance of that happening:-)
Yvonne, hope you’ve managed to get some rest this week, but knowing your friends you’ve probably been treated like royalty:-) The big question is has Jake tidied up around the house for you? Enjoy the display regardless honey, i’m Sure it will be a blast!:-)
Sending huge hugs to all, especially my blog besties, hope you have a nice weekendxxx
Love and crafty hugs
