Morning my crafty friends! A green and white thank you card for today. I embossed the background with the flora embossibility folder. I added two strips of green card on the sides. I cut four Moroccan borders and and wove them together, two on each side, creating a different look for the borders. I added some large half pearls in the centres of each of the Moroccan scallops.. I cut two of the largest Moroccan motifs and offset them so the scallops were alternating them and mounting them in the centre of my background. I stamped my sentiment and cut it out with the smaller size of the Moroccan motif. I inked it while in the die with pine needles distress ink to match my sides. I mounted it with 3D foam in the very centre of my focal element. I tied a double bow out of green frilly edged ribbon and added it at the top of the card, topped with a sparkly embellishment. Hope you like it! All for now, Sue x

Love this card and the colours really beautiful. Dont usually like green (had to wear it everyday for school many years ago, bad memories), but this looks gorgeous.
Have a good day.
Sue
A stunning card, I love the fact that it uses the moroccan dies as they are my favs at the momment.

Always love white cards, you really can't go wrong with white. You could use any favourite colour, I would try it with lilac. The Moroccan dies are so versatile, another set I now need to add to my wish list! Take care Alison :)
Hi Sue, I love the green and white colour combination so clean and fresh. Love the weaving technique width the border, that's one I know I shall be trying. Thanks again for the great technique know-how. Best wishes, Lesley x
Lovely card Sue. Really like the colour combo and the dies look gorgeous. Very versatile as you could change the colour for a different softer look.

Hope you are feeling much,much better Sue. I love this card too.
I think you are a genius to design such a variety of cards. What did we do before Spellbinders and the talented Sue Wilson? Mabex
Hi Sue, love the green and white, must have a play with my dies, and try the ideas, and have to get some ribbon! Bx
Hi Sue WOW another colour another wonderful card. Where oh where do you get your ideas? Love it. Hope you are feeling much better.

Morning, This is a super card ( that seems so trivial for your creations) i enjoyed watching the
demo of and was hoping that it would appear on the blog. The green is really stunning and i am not into green. Loving the bow also - you must be getting better bling and bows bring it on Sue.

Hi sue I love the colours and the layers you created with the dies. What a fab card.
Green's not my favorite color, but I like this card. I'm going to have to try to weave my borders together like that!

Hi Sue,
Gorgeous! I had no idea on first looking this that you had used the Moroccan dies for the borders - I thought they were individual flowers! It's very effective.
Good morning Sue, what a clean crisp card, and green is my favourite colour. I haven't got the Moroccan dies yet, but they are on my want list. Edwina
Very cool. I really like this card. Cheers
This is stunning Sue. The card looks so clean. Must try this in blue and white. Just love how the techniques really work with each other.
Hugs

Morning Sue, Wow I love this one, that green bow really makes the card! Lovely combination. Love Jean x
Sue what a striking card. I love the Morrocan dies and the colours are great together, very bold
WOW! So many beautiful cards already this week! This is another that is calling me - thanks once again for all the inspiration Sue - love the way you show us different uses for ths dies.
This is gorgeous Sue. I had to wear this green for school like missmizog. But looks striking on your card.
Take care kelly
Morning Sue,
This is delightful. I adore the Moroccan dies and they show up really well here, very lacey and pretty. The added dark green creates a very dramatic look especially with the big beautiful bow.
Another winner here me thinks.
Hope you are feeling alot better today and are able to be up and about with mum.
Take care, thinkin of you. Linda x
Hi Sue, beautiful card, love the colours and the pearl finish. Hope you are back to your normal self now. Regards, Anne x

I really like it Sue the contrast of colours makes everything pop and those Morrocan dies are fab....use them all the time now I have my sticky mits on them!!!!! take care Margaret
Very unusual colour combination but it really works. Lovely card.
Hi Sue,
What another lovely card, not a lover of Green, but the beauty of this card is that any colour can be used. I'm going to try this with favourite colour, Burnt Orange for a Moroccan feel as I have these dies. Thanks for the idea.
Love Chris. X
Elegant card, i always shy away from using green on cards but after seeing your lovely card it has given me the inspiration to use it more. The morrocan dies are fantastic.
Hello Sue,
Georgeous card. Green is my favourite colour yet I would not have thought to use it on a card, its really lovely, Thank you yet again for the inspiration. Best wishes Bren
That background embossing folder is becoming one of my favorites. It's working its way to the top, along with your bows, of course. What a striking color combo. The dark green really sets off the white and the touches of bling.
Hi Sue,
Another stunning card I love the colour combination but think it would work with any other colour equally as well. Another set of must have dies have put them on the list.
Hope you are fully recovered now Sue and enjoying your stay with your mum.

Hello Sue,
This card is very much my cup of tea, a real Sue Wilson card with a real Sue Wilson bow!
Gymslips were green at one of my schools too, worn with brown knickers - the old fashioned kind. Fortunately hasn't seemed to have put me off either colour though!
Hope your recovery is continuing well,
Sue x
Green is not a colour I would normally reach for but this has made me think again and with the white it's lovely x
This is beautiful.Nice to see another use of the Moroccan dies.Can see this as a good Christmas card.
