Carousel Animals

Hello bloggers!  We are sharing the new carousel themed dies today.  I am starting with the Carousel Animals die set.  There are three carousel animals in this set, a horse, zebra and elephant as well as a nice sentiment too.  If you like the animals, you can bring even more detail into them with a separate but matching stamp set.  I have used the matching stamps on the sample shown here.  The highlighting on the stamps makes colouring them so easy too!  I love that these bring back memories of fun days out spent at a fun fair with a carousel!  I think they will work for so many ages though.  If this set is saying your name, then just leave a comment on this post.  Please don't forget to make your name memorable though, I only have one set of each of the dies to give away, so if two people with the same name claim it, it will go to the first one that contacts me.  The next post is at noon today and we will be continuing on with the carousel theme.  All for now Sue x

Hi Sue and everyone, ohh i love this card, it really didn't need the flowers, such a statement in itself. I love thd background bit too. It all looks fabulous and for me brings back memories of our daughter and more recently granddaughter who just loves going on the carousel 🎠 Youve done the animals in such a way that they can be used alone too, without the poles. Fabulous card and die set. Hugs Donna xx

Morning Sue and all Wilsonnets, what a wonderful way to start todays collection of new items, I am sure my granddaughter who is 8 would appreciate this, she could cut the die and colour it in, what a lovely picture this is forming in my mind at the moment. Beautiful sample too and I like the background die, I am sure that will be coming up.

Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx

Hi Sue, a gorgeous card and I love the carousel animals. As a child I always made a beeline for the carousel and would have stayed on it all day had I been allowed so this has brought back many happy memories. I see that lovely circular die is back, looking forward to seeing what it is.

Hi Sue

A great card. I really like the carousel animals. I can only remember being on one once with a relative who is no longer with us. I remember loving the colours and how it was painted and of course the music. It dies being back memories like many others have said.
