May Blog Launch/ Cosmos Floral Panel Die Set

 Hello bloggers!  Here we are with the May 2021 die release blog launch!  We have some beautiful new concept dies to share with you this release, I am very excited about them!  Before we get into the actual release, I need to give you the usual info.  We will be giving away one set of each of the dies this release.  The giveaway will be based on drawings done from each of the comments left on the posts, so if you would like to get your name entered into any of the drawings, you only need to leave a comment.  You can leave comments on each and every die post, but please only one comment per post.  Since we only have one set to giveaway, I need to make sure that only the one winner claims it so please make you name memorable in some way.  Please add an alias like Cathy the cat lady, or the name of the city where you live such as Barbara in Bradford or at least you last name or initial.  I will do all the drawings and post the winners on the blog on the afternoon of May 18th so don't forget to check back then!

We are starting the blog with my new line of Floral Panel dies.  Shown here is the Cosmos Floral Panel die set.  These sets have so much versatility as you can use one panel, or the other panel or layer them on top of each other or cut and extend the panels, as I have done here.  If you like this concept, then just leave a comment on this post to be entered into the drawing to win this set.  I will be back at 12 noon today with the next die set for your perusal.  All for now, Sue x

  3. Well what a surprise lol when did you edit yesterday's post to let us know about the launch, I do love a surprise especially this kind.
    You've not given us panel dies for a while, and hands up, I've not used mine for a while only because I've not had to make top up cards for market. These are gorgeous, I too love anything floral, and this inspiration reminds me of my beautiful alium heads when they've gone to seed, so pretty. Looking forward to the rest of the day, will get the 12PM post in before I leave to get my 2nd vaccination. Had to postpone from last week as couldn't put my foot to the floor due to infected leg. However you're hoping to spend your day hope its lovely and that goes to all that visit today xxx

  15. Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, oh my goodness Sue what a fantastic set to begin this new launch, I must say I do like the launching every month instead of big ones every 3 months, and my friends who also love your products agree, but I digress, this Floral cosmos is wonderful and I am a great lover of getting the most out of die and you have given us so many opportunities with this new extending concept, and mix and matching them too. Yes you know you are onto a winner. Good Luck xx

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

  29. What a lovely surprise, especially as it’s my wedding anniversary (53 years!) & hubby said he will treat me to crafting goodies! I love these panels, especially as it looks like they will fit DL cards as well as standard ones. You really are the Queen of flowers Sue. No one does flowers quite like you. I love this sample as I love blue. Thankyou Sue, I can see this is going to be a wonderful day!

    Another great launch to enjoy. Love this new concept and these floral cosmos ones are great start to the launch. The card is very elegant. Looking forward to what else you have in store for us.

    Love Helen xxx

  38. Great idea, to have dies that can be layered or used one their own. Slimline or larger cards can use the same die which isn't always possible, since you either loose part of the design or it obviously repeats. TFS and giving us a chance to win this die set.
