Good morning all! I had a good rummage around and finally found the picture of this card that is another version of the card I posted on Tuesday. I cut the lace doily motif dies in half again, but I mounted the borders over the edge of them this time. I used the smaller lace doily accent pieces to create a fun corner piece for interest. I used the really small accent piece to top it and bring some more red into the card for balance. I stamped my sentiment and cut it out with labels 22 and inked around the edge. When I demoed this, I used the black soot for this which I prefer to the Fired Brick used here, but I didn't photograph that one before they sent it out to an email recipient (you have to be quick and I wasn't!) I used the black rhinestone Nestabling to give it a more focal centre and I cut a second labels 22 in black as a mat and turned it in the opposite direction. Both this card and the previous version are extremely quick to make and work well for both male or female depending on the colour and the sentiment used, don't you think? All for now, Sue x

Great use of the dies. Love, Julia xxx
Two cards using the same dies but looking very different. Agree that they are great for any gender. Also great for people without a ribbon stash!!

Merry Christmas to you and your Family

A lovely card that is not too 'fussy' for those who prefer the look. For me .... the fussier the better.
A great card, with those dyes I love, and have not bought yet!!!

You're right, could be for either male or female, it's lovely
So similar, yet so different! Loved switching between the two cards trying to compare them; both lovely. I cannot decide which I prefer, so will have to try making my own version of both!

Hi Sue very pretty card which also provides ideas
of how other dies can be used by cutting in half. I'm going to have a play. Thanks again
Hi Sue,you never disappoint!another great take on the doily die sets. I've always wondered what to do with dose smaller pieces,luv it!
Thanks again for sharing.

Most striking Sue.
Hi Sue,
Another fab card...Thankyou.

Thanks for showing us the other variation Sue. I personally prefer the lilac version, though only because of one thing: I am not a lover of the corner pieces sorry.
I have had a look at the schedule for your shows Sue, and if its any help to anyone these are the times at present:
TUES 13Dec C&C 5&6pm - Ideal World 10pm &12am.
WED 14Dec C&C 11am & 6pm - Ideal world 8pm.
Looking forward to seeing your latest works of art. Have a good day one and all.
Regards Linda
Great card Sue
hugs Sarah x
Another good idea
These dies are so versatile. Another great look.
I really like the original use of the lacy doily squares to make such an elegant focal point but I have to be honest and say I am not keen on the lace doily accent pieces on each corner - I think it's because they seems to compete with the beautiful central feature for attention. The colours are lovely and I will definitely use the lace doily squares this way myself. Really looking forward to seeing you soon Sue - I think we all get withdrawal symptoms when we don't see you for a while on C&C.
lots of love lilygee xxx
this is so beautiful sue i do love these dies xx
Fantastic card Sue very elegant card

You never disappoint Due, this card is fantastic. And yes, I completely agree, depending on the sentiment it would be suitable for a male or female card. Smashing card. Lee x
Wow, what a fun card.
I really like the versatility of this card.
I love the variations and the colours are striking x
Nice to see the versitality of using the same dies with different colourways and touches, but prefered Tuesday's card, seemed to have a softer look.
One of my favorite dies
great use of them, must try this idea
thanks Sue

You never cease to amaze me with your clever ideas. Another great card Sue. x
Great card again to day
Wonderful card!
This version is great as well!
LOVE this one as well, my question about the lace being cut by a die, I've already seen the answer!
How I wish I had more time to play with my new dies, but think it will have to wait until January. This is just gorgeous, so unusual

Geometric loveliness. Vee x

I love these colours - I never would have thought of using these lacey dies for male cards but they work so well - a brilliant idea - thank you x
Love this one. So very different. Full of inspiration. hugs Carol S.xx
Love the doily dies and again an unusual colourway that really works - just imagine how much confetti you'd get out of this one :) - great card!
I like this one, I think it is more geometric than the other version - and for some reason that makes it more masculine? but then it could be because to me it looks rather like a game of dominoes is being played. I am sure the centre piece could be altered to reflect that rather than the reminder of the formal garden layout that this one also makes me think of?
This is a very masculine card. I think I like it for that. Hugs, Mimi
I love this card Sue, the dies, the way you have used them and the colours
love from Jackie D
Love the colours again. Like all the chopping up and putting back together in a different way. You just increased the use of my spellbinders by i dont know how many. Great job!!!
