Here are the pics of the two new stamp plates for the show on Thursday. It's a good thing I don't rely on my photography skills for a living, huh?! A little wonky, but you get the idea. The large solid floral stamp in the top left hand corner is worth the price of the multi buy alone! I could have used that one for practically every card and still not run out of ideas for it. It is truly my favourite as .....you can see below.
Just to tease you a bit though, I have something planned for one of tomorrows demos that is really different. You are going to think that I have absolutely lost the plot! I am hoping it will shock (maybe a little) and delight (maybe a lot) all who watch. I'm not going to give any details (hopefully so you will have to watch!) but I will post the card after the show so you can get a good look at it. Kind of like the ribbon ruffling from a few posts back, I am hoping to have all of England doing this after they see it! Ambitious I know, but everyone needs a goal, right?!
Enough said on that, but I do want to say quite a few people left comments about the paper roses. I just want to let everyone know that you can find a tutorial on the paper roses that were on my card on the last post on Maria Holder's blog. She has a lovely tutorial on her blog (so well written that I was able to learn to do them from it alone) which you can get to by clicking on it on my sidebar. It is called Imagine, Create , Inspire. While I would love to take the credit for these (as they are my favourite new addition to most of my cards), it is Maria that has come up with the idea and put it into an easy to follow tutorial form.
Remember, this is a new post and more chances at that candy if you leave comments. All for now, Sue x

The card's gorgeous! That flower stamp is definitely versatile and can be used for many different occassions! :)
I was stunned by the lacing, it was just so gorgeous and the colour contrast gives it that extra punch.
Beautiful card!

The floweres were really nice :)
You are a terrible tease Ms Wilson! Can't wait to see this mad technique!!!
Oh My Gosh! I can't believe what you did with these flowers! I'm of to raid my garden now (and maybe my neighbours garden too!)
of the two, I think I'd use the first more but really like them both! So pretty :-)

Just loved today's show! The stamps & samples are just inspirational and your demos provide a great opportunity for crafters to stretch themselves, TFS!!
Such pretty stamps! I'll be watching the show on repeat because of work but can't wait. Loving the bright pink...
Hi Sue
Loved the show - I don't have many flowers in my garden, so will have to raid my Mum's! I can't wait to try the press flower thing, wow.
Loved all of your demo's, but just can't buy this set for a while. Birthday in a few weeks so will hope I get some pennies to spend!!
Katexxxxxxx
Lovely card and those sets are wonderful!
LOVED the show! Thanks so much! I really love how you bring us these wonderful stamps, new ideas and such fabby techniques to produce such beautiful cards! You are very inspiring!
Thank you!
Are any flowers safe now? I hope the neighbours were not watching otherwise there may not be any flowers left in the neighbourhood! Great show and demonstrations.
Loved the show today, Sue. Couldn't tear myself away from it even though I should have been working. Don't tell anyone! Def going to try the pressed flower technique. Thanks for sharing again. Lots of love, Julia xx
Just watched the show, fab, great techniques you show. The stamps are lovely and the cards beautiful. Thanks for sharing so many things and I agree a dvd of your ideas etc. would be great, the way you demo and show things is very inspiring. lol Nicola.
Loved the show, just finished watching it loved your 'special' new technique i will have to have a go over the weekend. Loved the faux linen card as well. Thanks Sue, looking forward to your show on the 27th. Liz :o)
watched you today on CC and i just want to say WOW! LOVED the new technique i so want to try that out tomorrow, loved both stamp plates..i have already got loadz of idea's for what to do with them lol.. just not got the plates as yet, but i did order them can't wait for them to arrive.
Beautiful cards.
Oh and the DVD idea is so fabby hope it happens.
wow Sue thank goodness my record button worked. Just loved your fantastic show and those wonderful techneques. On the hunt for some flowers to try the squished flowers card. Blown away by card you made it was lovely. Can't wait for my stamps to arrive. You really need to make a DVD for us all eager to learn more. I for one would buy it. Thanks for a fab show. x ChristineB
I tried the flower technique tonight but without much success I'm afraid., apart from little blue bell shaped flowers , they turned out great!
The other flowers I had in my garden just went to a yucky brown mess, no detail showing at all. I am waiting for my neighbours light to go off before I raid his garden! LOL
what a cool card, i have that loop punch and would never of thought to thread it..
Lovely stamps - fantastic show and some gorgeous cards!
What a great card. It is fantastic.
saw the show and love the stamp sets. I tried your flower squashing technique some time ago but only got a soggy mess!! Perhaps I should try again with different flowers! All the card samples were beautiful, who would think they could be created from rubber! Best wishes.
Hi Sue,
Great show.
Great that you had a good presenter with you this time!!
LOVED the stamps... gotta have them!!Really like the big stamp too!
Really lovely cards.
Viv xx
Loved the show Sue! What you did with the flowers from the potted plant...WOWsers what an amazing effect! I wish I had just half of your imagination, then perhaps my mojo wouldn't keep going on walkabout lol.
Have a great weekend hun :)
*hugs* Heather x
I've got those type of stamps too but have been afrid to use them. But, after seeing your pretty cards I'm going to try them now. I can't wait for what's in store for tomorrow!
Mimi :)
How interesting is the lattice work on this card!! Love the color scheme too!
Thanks for posting the info on the Roses tutorial!! It's EXACTLY what I needed... And LOVE the effects on this card, can't wait to see YOUR tutorial! :)
nice card, and nice stamps. I like much the seam of the center of the card
Great cards and the lacing is something to try.

Wow, these floral stamps are very special. That collage floral is to die for! Love how you've paper pieced on the card.
These are really gorgeous stamp sets. I love the card.
Thanks for the information about the tutorial - the roses look great :) I like the ribbon threading in this card, what a lovely effect.
