Here is a little message from Susie;


"Hi, my name is Susie. I'm in my early 40's, Mum to 2 lovely teenage sons Reid & Woody and wife to my best friend Garry.
I have been crafting since 2005 when the bug bit me after watching a craft channel on TV one afternoon.
I now run my own design die cut business called Die Cut Dreams ( http://www.diecutdreams.com/ ) where I sell my own design die cuts and other custom designer die cuts plus lots of crafty goodies.
I love most types of paper crafting, and often wonder what I did with all my time before I started crafting and blogging ...... There just isn't enough hours in the day as I'm totally addicted to all things crafty and couldn't imagine life without craft and my blog http://sassydesignsbysusie.blogspot.com/
