Good morning! Through the magic power of pre-scheduling my posts, you should be viewing this about the time I am hitting the road to go to the studio for my early start (but why are you up this early? LOL). I have shows scheduled today at 8am, 1pm, 4pm, 5pm and 7pm. I love the card in today's post, but sorry there is a bit of a shadow on it in the pic. The background was embossed with the hedged maze embossing folder on to cream card. I wrapped two pieces of zircon green vintage ribbon around it, then mounted it atop another piece of cream card that I pierced around the edge. For the focal element I used the square heart die in the back and the lacy circles for the sentiment. I inked through the die with Broken China distress ink to give it a soft frame. I mounted those on to another piece of cream card that I pierced around too. I finished the piece with three spiral flowers made of felt in varying shades. Aside from being a total "me" type of card for the obvious reasons, these are my favourite kind of cards as they could be given for any reason whatsoever and just make the recipient smile. I hope you like it and you will tune in sometime today to see more in the way of cards and demos. All for now, Sue xSaturday, 19 November 2011

Hello Sue
Just watched and recorded the show, as usual when you're on..Love this card so elegant. Managed to get a bundle of dies where I didn't have any of them ! So that was nice.
Have a good time and " Keep Demoing "
Love Marg
Sue I love the colours, I dont seam to be able to get the shades of felt you use they only do very in the face colours. I will be watching all the shows but I must tell you I tape them and fastforward the bits were they talk about the dies. It would be nice if you could make a DVD with you on Spellbinders that would be fab
Jane xx
I've been watching and have recorded the show so I can check out all the details of your fab creations. Love the card and love the felt flowers.
Carol xx
What a beautiful card. I love those flowers
I agree with Jane's comments I too would love a DVD with you and Spellbinders pleeeeeeeeeeeeeze
Love your demo's from yesterday and today and looking forward to some more over the weekend (I just wish there wasn't so much talking from the presenters and more demo's) LOL
Heather x
This card immediately reminded me of a song. '(I feel) Pretty, oh so pretty...', (From West Side Story). Its perfect Sue. Watched your show this morning (up early to go visit my son in Uni). The first demo card was again 'so pretty'. A 'you' card but with a beautiful twist - flowers but not as we know it. (Oh shoot me someone, now I sound like a Trekkie. Lol)
Have great day all. Regards Linda
Sue - loving your demos and some really lovely samples. Always up for another DVD from you. Really like this card and it is amazing how many different ways that use use Spellbinders.

This is beautiful. TFS.
Just loving your shows. Thanks for the tip about rubbing waxed paper over the dies to help to prevent the card from sticking.
I am hoping that you will post a photo of the card with the circle of white flowers, where you cut a white and a black flower at the same time. It was such an unusual card.
Brilliant card, love the flowers

LOVE the gorgeous colours against the white. Think I'm gona have to request the die for those flowers for Xmas! x
This is beautiful, I have that blossom die myself but really could use a video tutorial on how exactly to use it. Perhaps you've done one on TV and I missed it?
Very pretty card. Where do you come up with all of your ideas? Just love your projects!
Beautiful.
This card is so elegant, with just the touch of colour. The inspiration from your blog is just fab, Sue. Enjoy your time at home but hurry back as we can't do without you! x
