June Die Release Blog Launch / Christmas Angel 2023

Hello and welcome to the June Christmas Die Release Blog Launch.  This year we are breaking the release into two parts, with the second part coming in a couple of months in August.  We will be giving away the entire collection to one lucky person based on a drawing from all the comments left on all the posts.  There are thirteen dies in this first part of the Christmas collection.  Please remember to make sure to add your name to each and every comment you leave and make it memorable in some way.  Please add a surname or initial, the city where you live or use an alias, anyway that distinguishes you from every one else. 
I will do the drawing and post the winner's name on the morning June 20th, so don't forget to check back then.

 We are starting out with this year's Christmas Angel.  There are five dies in this set and the angel's dress has been done in separate pieces so you can easily show off the added detail.  To be entered into the drawing, just leave a comment on this post (please only one comment per post). I will be back at noon with the next post.  All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue.
Black and gold, a beautiful festive combination of colours, I see a few 'new' dies on show on your first inspirational beauty and when I remember the other 3 posts I know I'll look forward to the first half of the launch, I'm really useless at keeping up with the launch times lol.
Have a lovely day to all that visit xx

June Smith said...

Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, oh Wow, I wasn't expecting this, how beautiful, black and gold, not a colour I would have thought of for an Angel by my goodness it is stunning, and certainly works so well. I can hear the trumpets in the background even now. What a start to this 1st half of your Christmas release. Thank you so much.

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

Morning Sue, as is tradition, the start of the June Christmas die launch starts with a beautiful Angel. Your card is amazing and I love how the die set is made up with the separate elements, especially the wings. A great start, can't wait to see what is coming up. Take care everyone. Bx

Hi Sue
I had a busy day yesterday and forgot to check your blog so it’s a lovely surprise to see the start of your Christmas collection. A beautiful card to showcase your 2023 Angel and I’m sure she will be very popular. Love the star frame and can’t wait for the next post

Love and hugs to everyone

Lisbeth said...

Hi Sue. I always look forward to your Christmas Angel die each year and each year you come up with a better one than the previous year. Wow, I love the really full skirt on this one and I am sure it could be used for occasions other than Christmas if you don't use the wings.

One of the best angels yet, with an optional frill. Beautiful.

Fluffycat said...

Hi Sue, I confess to not being the biggest fan of some of your angels but this one I love. I think she is the best yet with her full skirt and the separate overlays, really lovely. A great start to the Christmas launch.

Hi Sue

Sorry for being late!!

A fabulous new Christmas angel. She’s very detailed.

Love Helen xxx

Scottydog said...

What a start to your Christmas launch. I know a lot of people collect all your Christmas angels & I think this is a must especially as you have cut the dress in 2 parts which would make it easy to cut a strapping bodice for a prom dress! Thank you Sue.

Crewe Trish said...

Hello Sue
I am sorry I am so late just spent 81/2 hours at the hospital. This is a lovely angel.
