Backgrounds


Hi crafters!  Day three of the blog launch is starting with my new Butterfly Background.  It is a bit different from the country collection backgrounds as it is square in shape as opposed to the usual rectangular shape.  With six dies in this set, you have more than enough versatility to create beautiful cards,  The very centre design has been left with a non butterfly theme so it can easily be used for many other techniques.  Did the eagle eyed among you spot it in the background of the sample showing the Mauritius die on day one?  Yes it was there and it is so versatile.  The set also comes with a single butterfly that is nicely sized for use on cards as a simple accent (or even to cover those spots where we boo booed! LOL)  Leave a comment if you are interested in winning this one!  The next blog post is scheduled for 10am and I think you will find it is a beautiful accompaniment to this one as well!  All for now, Sue x

  1. This launch just gets better and better, I'm loving these dies, beautiful card too. I love the butterfly frame.
    Always in my thoughts, Tracey, Ekaine and Andrew, Tina and Mick, Tima and Pete, and all who are not well.
    June, thanks for caring about Robbie, George was contacted by the parents of a Paraolympic swimmer who lives near where Robbie goes to College to try to get him to meet her but he thinks they are match making so is holding back lol. I think she won a medal last games, Robbie too was a State champion swimmer.

  2. Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, oh you have done us proud with this one, it is certainly a MUST HAVE, I love the butterflies but also I was one of the people who spotted the square background, so I am dead chuffed about that. Only 1 week to go before AP, so looking forward to it.

    Hugs to everyone who needs them today, you know who you are xx

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

  4. Pam, what is wrong with match making, I got my 2nd husband (current) that way, so tell Robbie to have a meet with her, if it doesn't work out then put it down to experience. Wow Have been watching the Para Olympics, we are doing so well, it just goes to show that anyone can do anything it they put their mind to it and Robbie is a prime example of this. Hugs my friend, will catch up with everyone else when the blog launch is over. Sending lots of hugs xxxxx

  15. Morning Sue. WOW another gorgeous card. Now this die is a beauty, i have always loved butterflies i think its there beautiful colours and they look so delicate. I did notice the centre of the die on the card but didnt guess where it came from so it has been a nice surprise this morning to see the die in all its glory. Its just another one to add to my wish list, its getting bigger every day lol. Will join you later to see more of your stunning cards and dies. Have a lovely day Sue.
    Best Wishes.

  16. Good morning Sue. How can it be that someone as creative as you are can get even more creative with every new collection you design and launch ? Where on earth do you pull your ideas from Sue ? Are you working through a project and think - ooh, I could do with a background but with butterflies as a border detail and so the idea grows from there ? You just never fail to amaze me with not only your project designs but your die designs too. If this gorgeous die is my first need of day 3 I reckon I'll be bankrupt by 6pm as I did seem to get rather pally yesterday with PayPal lol, all those New Addition dies sent me out of control lol.
    So I'm looking forward to the next post and the one after that but will need a little more self control 😉
    This is the most beautiful sample and an amazing die. Can it get any better than this I ask myself.
    Have a great day Sue reading all the comments that you so deserve.
    Hugs coming your way xxx

    A beautiful die set and card. I love the background and paved pearl technique used too, just lovely.

    Clai01 made me laugh saying this die makes mistakes worth making so you can stick a butterfly on.

    Seeing todays card makes me realise that this die set is much more versatile than I first thought. On the wish list I think....

  133. Good morning Sue and the Wilsonettes,
    I have fallen in love with this die set Sue as it is just beautiful, but i think there will be a lot of us that have done that with this beauty. What a beautiful card and the single butterfly looks like it has a little heart in the bottom wing on each side so you could secretly tell someone you loved them with out it being blazen for all the world and their friends to see. I am into square cards at the moment so this is ideal in shape for me. Thank you Sue for bringing such beauty to us.
    Well we have a lovely day up here at the hillfoots with the sun shining but i am touching wood the whole time i'm saying this just in case it decides to change. i have the white fluffy clouds going sailing across my beautiful hills and i have decided that this is going to be a good day, lol.
    Senidng hugs to all that need them, could do with them or just want one, they are there to keep you going. Have a lovely day everyone,

  136. Good Morning Sue
    What a great die and card! When I first saw the new launch on ore-order this die really stood out for me so I just had to order it!!
    I have already received a message to say it had been despatched so am hoping it might just pop through my letter box this morning so guess what I will be doing later?
    I do like both butterflies and square cards and I think you are on to a winner with this die, Sue!!!!!

  137. Hi Sue. OH WOW !!! Nothing short of stunning with your gorgeous new butterfly die set and stunning card this morning !!! I am pleased with myself as I was one of those people who spotted the centre die on one of the Indian Ocean cards. This butterfly frame looks amazing !!! I think it is just sooo pretty. I don't have any thing like this in my collection so yes I have to say it Sue, yet another definate die set for my wish list !!! I have absolutely no idea how I am going to prioritise what to get first !!! I just love everything !!! A great idea to have a cute little butterfly as your centre die to. Also a big bonus for me is that it is a square die set, as I mostly make 8 x 8 square cards, so this is perfect for me. Thank you Sue for more fab dies and beautiful card. Lots of love to you Sue from Tres x x x

    Lots of love to everyone from Tres x x x

  139. This is a lovely card Sue, and a beautiful die. How I wish I had a fraction of your talent, just for making cards, I wouldn't even think about designing dies! :)

  158. Good morning lovely Due and her crafty crew!

    What a fantabulous die Sue, who doesn't adore a butterfly? I love the square shape to this die, it's a pleasant change to the usual rectangle....though I haven't splashed out on the noble squares they would be fab as a frame for this beauty.
    Princess Pixie will be especially pleased with this card, it features a gorgeous pixie powder background which really enhances the butterfly detailing, I'm also loving the pave pearl technique because it's been a while since you have featured it on the blog. Lovely card and even scrummier die.
    Feeling more refreshed this morning after a bit of shut eye and ready to contend with another batch of delicious posts. I have to go out soon though, I have a caci facial booked and it's a priority...I can't have my jowls tripping me up when I meet the great lady herself next weekend....and just in case of any confusion , I'm not referring to a certain princess:-)
    I'll pop back later, a new woman:-)
    Wishing all my blog besties a lovely weekend enjoying the treats Sue has in store for us.

    Love and crafty hugs

  161. Hello Sue,
    I've been waiting to see this one as I loved the die when I first saw it! My friend did too and I think she actually ordered it. I often make square cards and have the noble squares so this would e a great addition!
    The card is beautiful . I saw the butterflies on the Mauritius card but only because Norah told me !!!
    I'm late starting today but I'll try to catch up!
    Love to all, Myra Y xx

  172. Hi Sue, three to catch up on so I must make the most of my time. Love butterflies, love the dies and love this card. I particularly like the 'spare' butterfly flying free, you can never have too many butterfly dies. I'm pleased to see where the background on the day one card with the Mauritius die has come from because I loved that card too.

  173. Hi Sue
    Oh my oh wow oh I love it x
    I would almost bet my life on that being a preciously perfect positively princess like pixie powder background!! Am I right or am I right??
    What a joyous card which could not fail to bring a smile to anyone's face. Mine in particular x
    The die is completely and utterly and unbelievably eyepoppingly breathtaking. And teamed up with my favourite pots of heavenly sparkle it is completely amazing x
    My burning question has been answered. I spent ages trying to work out how you had made the amazing background on the card which showcased your Mauritius die. I was convinced you had cleverly snipped, manipulated and changed one of the dies in the India Ocean collection. Now it all becomes very clear!! x
    Need to give this bank robbery some serious consideration x
    One more comment to squeeze in before 3pm. Sorry folks not had time to read what is going on in your world but once the launch is finished I promise I will be a very attentive Wilsonette x
    Oodles of love and soppy happy thoughts to you all
