Hi crafters! Here is Orion! If you have wondered about the names, they are named after constellations as Gemini was, not only, an astrological sign, it was also a constellation. I have used this die going in both directions on this card for a unique look. And who says a border always has to be horizontal, right? I love the extra detail this set adds to the card. Don't forget to leave a comment on each of the posts to be included in all the drawings. Directions are on the right hand side of my blog if you are unsure of how to do it, it is very easy! The last post for the day will be up at 6pm, last but not least! All for now, Sue x

Love the butterfly effect on this one the way you have used it. Beautiful swirls reminds me of ocean waves!

Hi Sue, nearly ordered this one, think I may have to add it to my wish list! Love Jean xxx
Well Sue this is definitely my favourite of the Gemini dies and one I will be ordering if I am not lucky enough to win it.
I LOVE the colours used to make the card they are so elegant I think
Hugs Sue xxx
Oh just looked at my order again and I have ordered it! xxx
Hi Sue,
Bet you are thrilled with all of the positive comments on the launch of the new die collection. They are all stunning.

Think this one will be a 'must have' waiting until the end to make a selection, it is nice to see them on cards first, many thanks Edwina
Sue again your have surpassed yourself - I love this one and I like the way that it is horizontal but you have cut it out on white card and mounted it then done it again in the creamy/beige (sorry if that is the wrong colour) and put this on the front you would never believe it was the same die would you.
So looking forward to 6pm, you must be really knackered.
Talk later hugs June Smith xxx
Ohh this has to be my favorite of the day
Sue it is stunning
You continue to inspire me and others and that knowledge must make you so happy
Thank you Sue
Don't ever stop will you
Love Theresa xx

Hi Sue. I just do not have a clue how you keep thinking up all these amazing dies or card ideas !! This card is stunning Sue !! I love the way in which you have used this die. You are so clever. I won't say another one for my wish list as to be honest at the moment everything is on my wish list !! I just dread having to make the decision of what I can and can't afford to buy as I don't want to leave any of the dies behind !! Hubby thinks I am mad. Thank you Sue for all you do. Lots of love Tres x x x
Hi Sue,

hi again Sue,
I do not know how you do it, every die you shown us has been just gorgeous. My poor little brain is working overtime, everytime I look at a new die, I'm thinking of all the possible ways it could be used. First off have to write to Father Christmas and hope he put some in my stocking!
Love this card Sue and the colours are just perfect.
See you later, love Brenda xxx
I'm starry eyed at your creations never mind constellations! Sue you really are in a class of your own, this range is out of this world ,so very aptly named!
This card is Glorious,my two favourites in the Gemini range are Carina and Orion, but in saying that I love them all!
Fell in love with Ursa, then changed my mind to Lyra and now you have given us Orion. It is so hard to choose between then, might have to have them all. The cards are really beautiful and show off your new dies spectacularly.
GORGEOUS.
Thank goodness Christmas is in a few weeks time. My wish list has grown a great deal today. This die set is fabulous. Your card samples are outstanding Sue. xx Annie P
