California Collection- You're Amazing


Hi bloggers!  Here is the final card today showcasing the California Collection.  I have kept it very simple as there was a technique that I show in the video that I have done for it (those will be coming on the blog very soon).  The Background die set and the San Francisco die set have been used on this card and those are the dies on offer for the giveaway this time.  Leave me a comment to be in the running.  Tomorrow will feature a new collection and will head off at 6am as usual.  Hope to see you there!  All for now, Sue x

    GA Sue - this is becoming habit forming! We will miss the 4 posts a day when you revert to daily - greedy aren't we! Well, this is one of my faves and a must have - I've clicked on the image to enlarge it a bit and it seems a bit 2 tone to my eyes - if so, cant wait for the video to see how you have done this. Hubby's valentines card all done now - so deciding on the next project. Until tomorrow...

    Well Sue, another winner and perfect for the odd card buyer who asks for or wants "plain" cards. Using just the background id on its own would look lovely with some flowers and a sentiment, quick and easy especially when we might have a few to make. Perfect. Like Julie will they becoming available on Create and craft as flexi can really help out a lot when you are on a pension.
    I'll save to get the first one anyway and build up from there.
    I wonder what goodies we will be shown tomorrow.
    Take care everyone and hopefully i will see you all tomorrow,
    Love and crafty hugs

    Hi Sue. What can I say, yet more fantastic dies. The background is stunning and will be suitable for just about any card you wish to make and the San Francisco set are ornate but not fussy so again will be so useful. We keep saying it, but Sue, you have got this whole collection spot on in every way : ) Have a great evening, reading the comments possibly? They are going to take you ages again aren't they :) Looking forward to tomorrows set and cards. Take care.

    Hi Sue, this is fast becoming my favourite set but then again I may like tomorrow's even better :-) I really like the idea of a background die, there are so many ways you could use it. I won't be up at 6am but will check in again as soon as I get up just to see what else you can delight us with.

    Wow Sue, I've been searching, since I got my Grand Calibur, for a really intricate, beautiful background die and think I've found it! This is fantastic!

    I really love that the collections are colour coded, it makes them more identifiable and easy to match to co-ordinating dies.

    I don't understand why you haven't been deigning dies all along, its clear you have a great vision of the ideal die design. You are a SUPER(CRAFT)STAR hands down, you are the most talented card maker I have seen.

    When I make cards I look at your blog for inspiration, I hope that my cards reach the intricacy and beauty of yours one day.

    Grand show Sue, absolutely fantastic, can't wait to see more dies, excited!
