Morning all! I know, I know, another buckle card! But I just love doing them! I started this one with a background paper from Graphic 45. I covered it with a sticky adhesive sheet then peeled the backing paper off and poured my micro beads over the top to create a lovely textural background. Borders to decorate the top and bottom of the card were cut from my Vintage Lace Accent set. I added flatback pearls to them for a bit of the bling. I cut three frames from Labels 18, two small and one large. I then cut two of the large Chateau Gate out of milk coloured card. I nipped away the gate and cut the swirl so that it stopped half way around my label shape. I used one gate for the top and one gate for the bottom of my label so it created a lovely swirly accent all the way around. I glued them in place and then placed all three of my frames together. Using a strip that I had stamped my sentiment on, I wove it through the edges of my frames, leaving my sentiment centred over the large frame. I cut forks into both ends and added a single pearl. I pierced the edges using a piercing ruler, pokey tool and foam mat to finish and frame my card. I hope I won't have a buckle card revolt on my hands from this one! LOL All for now, Sue x

No revolt from me either, Sue. It's a buckle, but a very feminine buckle - and anything with your vintage lace dies plus adhesive pearls always gets my vote anyway! Love the micro beaded background too.
Have a great weekend,
Sue xx
Gorgeous card and i love the colours used. Sonia x
Bore. Da Sue,What an elegant card Sue, I absolutely adore it.Must try this one Hugs Sue
Hi Sue, this is a lovely feminine card in a very pretty colour combo. Love it, no complaints from me about buckle cards. Bx
The idea of the card is super!Very lovely colors!
No revolt here Sue, I love your buckle cards and this one again is so beautiful and intricate.
A gorgeous elegant card Sue.
Good morning Sue
No revolt from me either, you keep them coming because each one is different. I love the way you have used different dies together and not in the way they were supposed to be used, you certainly make me look at dies in a different way.
Hugs x
I love the buckle cards, Sue...they're so elegant!

No revolution yet - your buckle cards are always a hit with me.
They look so complicated the way they thread through but are really easy to make and anyone would be pleased to receive one. I have also taken to cutting out the middle of dies to make frames.
Janet x
This is a gorgeous card Sue and I love the effect of the buckles.

Good Morning Sue,

Morning Sue, fab card, buckle cards are great, darker colours for men, pastel for women. No revolt from me. Take care, Jess xx
Hell Sue. No complaints from me. You can do a buckle card whenever you like, especially when it's as lovely as this one. Into the inspiration folder it goes. xx
Good morning Sue, loved this card when you did it on C&C. You are so clever to see how the bits from the gate would fit around the labels shape. Hugs xx
p.s. no revolt from me I find this style card a pretty quick one to make up when someone asks for a card at the last minute

Hi Sue, lovely card and thank you very much for explaining how you get the piercings round the edge - i wondered if you did it with a sewing machine and a needle with no thread - I didn't know about piercing rulers - something else i 'need' now.

Hi Sue, no objection from me , I love buckle cards and this is no exception. Lol Lynne M x x x
I've discovered I'm really not drawn to 'woven' cards, either ribbon or card, so the buckle cards don't do it for me. I can see this could be popular, but I'm not drawn to 'having a go' myself, which is not what usually happens with your cards!
Thank you, Sue
Christine

Hi Sue
giving specific tutuorials each time you post is a big pull on your time, so we should thank you especially for that...
Love the card - clever construction, like what you did with the ornate bits from the gates is really clever!
Paula x x x
I'm hard pressed to think of any cards I've seen of yours that I don't like. They are always stunning & everyone of them is different. I really love your buckle cards! You always think outside the box with everything. I hope when I have more time to craft I never have to worry for inspiration etc. I'm usually rushing to get a card done for someone as I need 30 hours per day so I can sleep occasionally too!

How amazing sue
A year has flown by and regardless of life's ups and downs you are the one main constant.
You are truly amazing sue
