Lift Your Spirits
Hi bloggers! This post is dedicated to the Lift Your spirits die set. As promised, you can see from the sample shown that the previous die set does mix very well with this one. The hot air balloon in this set has been designed to fit the new smaller round treat cup for shaker cards if desired. The die set can be easily used without it as well if shaker cards aren't your thing. This is a lovely set to use to make a card for a friend that is feeling a bit under the weather or out of sorts. We all love to receive those kind of cards, don't we? Don't forget to use to "Pin it" button that has been included on each post to save those cards or dies onto your Pinterest boards for later inspiration. Once again, I will remind you to leave your comments on this or any post during the launch for a chance at winning that die set. The final post for the day will be up at 3pm today. i hope you will be able to join us back here then. All for now, Sue x

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!

Wooden Garden Cart
Hello crafters! Today's goodies are focused on the new Necessities range of dies. First up this morning is the Wooden Garden Cart die set. I have to say that I just love this cart, it is just so cute. The die set comes with an array of various fruit and veg which can be used to fill the cart, everything from carrots to pumpkins! Each of the stems have been included extra so you can cut your fruit or veg in one colour and then add on a stem in another if desired. If you want a chance to win this die set, you know what to do! I would just love to read your comments, let me know what you think! There is also a "Pinit" button included at the bottom of each post if you would like to save any of the cards or dies to your Pinterest boards. The next post has been scheduled for 12 noon today. All for now, Sue x

Typewriter Grid Alphabet
Welcome back crafters! This post is dedicated to the Typewriter Grid Alphabet die set. This set is unique in that it cuts out each letter as a debossed circle, but it also gives you the circle grid to fit them back into as well. The lovely old fashioned typewriter look to it was designed to work well with the Industrial Chic collection as well as holding it's own with any number of other die sets. Shown here, I have used it as a background instead of an alphabet so you can see the versatility to it. I would love to see your comments as well as allowing you a chance to win this wonderfully useful die set! The last post of the day is at 3pm today. All for now, Sue x

Industrial Chic Background
Hello there my crafty friends! During this post, we are featuring the new industrial Chic Background die set. Now this background is unique in that it is made up of three dies, but the centre die has been designed so it can be easily made into a striplet as shown in this sample. The linked edging around the striplet is part of the background that can be extended or easily nipped away and used by itself if desired. The outer area of the background has been designed to look like a zipper and can be used to frame your Industrial Chic creations. Leave a comment to be included in the drawing to win this one. The last post for the day is at 3pm, hope you can pop back by here. All for now, Sue x

Industrial Chic Corner
Hi crafters! Welcome to day two of the blog launch. First up this morning we are showcasing more of the Industrial Chic Collection with the corner. This is an intricately detailed large corner with cogs and wheels and a zipper edge back to it. Shown here, you can see that it looks amazing done in alcohol inks and in a grunge style. The individual elements from the corner can easily be nipped apart to use in other ways for greater versatility as well. If you like the way that this die looks, you just need to leave a comment on this post and your name will be entered into the drawing. Don't forget to make your name memorable by adding your surname or city you are from or just using an alias that stands out. The next blog post has been scheduled for 12 noon today. I would love to see you back on the blog then! All for now, Sue x
