June 2021 Die Launch/ Christmas Angel 2021

Hello crafters and welcome to the 2021 June Christmas die launch!  We have actually broken down the Christmas launch into three separate launches, with the remaining dies being launched in July and August as mini launches.  We have 17 dies to share with you during this launch.  As always, we will be giving away a set of each of the dies based on drawings from the comments you leave on the posts.  Please be sure to make your name memorable in some way as I only have a single set of dies to giveaway and we don't want more than one person to claim them.  Please use a funny alias or add your last name or initial or even the town or city you live in, just some way for me to know that it will go to the right winner of the drawing.  You can enter the drawings by leaving a comment on each and every post, but please no more than one comment per individual post.  I will do the drawings and publish the list of winners on June 30th so don't forget to check back then.

We are starting out with this year's collectible Christmas Angel 2021.  As ir has been a different sort of year, I have designed a very different angel.  She is more stylized than I have ever done before, but I love the way that she adds a modern twist to your Christmas cards, and I hope you do too.  Please leave your comment on this post and join us back here at 12 noon for the next release.    All for now,  Sue x

Morning from Lancashire Sue, a bright sunny morning not at all Chrimassy. Your Angel looks like she's dancing the salsa the way you've curved her curves. I'm afraid unlike hundreds of your followers I've never been one for an angel I think myself and Trish feel the same. She's a real modern 2021 lass that people will love so as I really like your inspiration, I'll stand down from entering my name if you dont mind, I'm sorry, but I know there will be more that love her xxx

June Smith said...

Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, well what can I saw, I was speechless when I opened the blog here this morning and saw the really beautiful Angel for this year, every year you surpass yourself with your very special Angels and this is certainly no exception, it is absolutely beautiful and I like the idea of the 2 dies so you can build the outline up and make the inside a deeper depth, can you imagine all the glitter and glitz on this angel, oh my heaven yes. You have created a beautiful sample using the oval stitched dies sitting on a stunning blue background, and finally topped with the poinsettia and sentiment, wonderful for batch making too.

Good luck with this new launch, not that you need it, and good luck to all entries.

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

Crewe Trish said...

karenlotty said...

I agree with Steph on both counts I immediately thought trim off the wings and she could be dancing - not sure about the Salsa though hee hee I’m no expert I just enjoy doing it!
And for personal reasons I don’t like angels I want my angels back here please So please don’t enter my name for this draw
She is very sassy though

Ann Topp said...

Good Morning Sue. Beautiful card today Sue. What a great start to the Christmas 2021 Launch. Love it. And so exiting that it stretches over two more launches. I love your background it looks icy ... Christmassy ... If you get my drift. Your Angel is again ... a lovely creation ... That will sit alongside her sisters in all their glory.
Good luck with the new launch Sue. Someone is going to be very lucky to win this set.
Thankyou Sue. Sending hugs 🤗 and best wishes to everyone who needs them today.

PLEASE KEEP STAYING SAFE 🙏 🙏 🙏

Kind regards Ann Toppcards in Leeds

Hi Sue and everyone, sorry a little late to the party today. But I love Christmas and card making at Christmas is defo my fav cards to make. Now I love the angel and your card and as others have said she does look like she's dancing 💃 so chop off her wings and you have a totally different card to make. I think she's fabulous.

So different to the rest of your angels. But that’s a good thing, lots of choices for all those differing styles for different people.
