Hello my crafty friends! First of all I would just like to say that you have my Mom eating out of your hands! She was just lapping up all the wonderful comments about her yesterday (especially one about us looking like sisters!) LOL You guys definitely made her day, thank you! Now for today's card, it is one of those long skinny kind I really love making as they are just so different!
Gold Elements One it is and that fantastic corner in the set. I used it three times across the card, using just the inside die without the triangle cutting die to give me this pretty decorative insert across my card. I cut it out of a pale
lavender card. Behind the cut out, I covered a piece of white card with a
self adhesive sticky sheet and then covered it with
Rock Candy Dry Glitter for a white on white sparkly bling effect. I mounted my lavender piece above it with mounting foam for dimension. I left a thin white mat top and bottom as the length of this card didn't allow me to do that on all four sides. I added a further mat top and bottom which I pierced and added score lines above and below the piercing for a different effect. I stamped my sentiment and cut it out with the smallest die in the
Gold Labels Four set as it is very pretty. I inked it slightly with
Milled Lavender distress ink for a shadow. I tied a double bow out of
white silky crush ribbon and added it in the left hand corner. I tucked my tag under the edge of a
pearl embellishment on my bow. At the other end of the card, I added some pearl swirls as a balance. The finished dimensions are 5" x 11 1/2" in size.
Just a quick reminder that Julia Watts has shows today on Create and Craft tv at 2pm and 7pm. Be sure to tune in to see her great demos! All for now, Sue x

Thank you

Beautiful card love this design may have to try this one enjoy your time with Mom .Melanie
Good morning Sue
Your Mom deserves all the compliments because after all she gave us you. I love the shape of today's card, it's funny how we all look at things differently, when I first had this die I only saw envelope flaps. But you have given us so many ways to use this die thank you Sue. As usual stunning card, I must try glitter instead of micro beads for a change.
Hugs x

Liking the looong, skinny look, hee hee, really like this die too. A very striking effect, just lovely.
So great your Mom gets to read the comments and to see how much her daughter has helped and inspired so many people.

Good morning Sue,
What a pretty and unusual take on a DL card. I love the colour that you have used on top off my favourite of course white. Glad your mum had a lovely time and so nice that she has such alot of people that care about her who are not family. Just shows that you are never too old to make new friends. Who says you can't pick your family. I reckon that good friends are definitely the family that we are lucky to have. Enjoy your time with your mum, Sue.
love and crafty hugs

Simple card but oh what an impact! I love the way you left the space at the end of the card for the pearls and the colour scheme is so calming and beautiful. Every time I decide to buy these beautiful dies I see another one I like better but next time it's going to have to be this one. They always look so stunning when on a completed card.
My grand nestabilities square came yesterday so it's going to be play this morning and my craft knit and natter this afternoon. So a wonderful day ahead. I shared my bundle of A4 mboss with my crafting friends as I said I would and they were over the moon with them so we are all waiting impatiently for the new stock to arrive as we all want the full set.

Hello Sue,
What a lovely card - it has a fresh calm feel about it, love the way tou have pierced and scored the edge also the Rock Candy glitter add 'just enough' sparkle, the die works so well used in this way - I only saw it as a corner - it has now been added to my wish list.
Thank you again for shareing you mums lovely birthday photos, she could get away with taking 20 years off her age, no one would disbelieve her - she looks so young. Give her a big hug from me.
Hope you well, Brenda Lel
Another gorgeous card Sue - love the colour. As you say that die set is fabulous. I think all the latest sets are gorgeous. I've just finished two of your cards - stunning. Although I must admit I can't get to grips with the piercing!!! Thanks for all the inspiration. Take care.
Hugs

Love this card it is so pretty and like the lavender colour as well as the unusual shape.
I absolutely love all of your cards and they give me so much inspiration to try new ones out. I did try the small punching out around the sides of things but it didn't quite work. Did you use a ruler to get things so straight?
Hugs, Jen :-) x

Love what you have done with this die, would never have thought to use it like this thanks, thanks, thanks. May you continue to have the opportunity to see and hug your mum, wish I still had mine Kathy xxx
I wouldn't have known how to use this die and would definitely not bought it as it doesn't cut out completely as I would hav expected it to. BUT you have shown us so many ways of how to use it beautifully and elegantly as usual! Now it's on the list! Much as I would love to flatter your beautiful Mom as she looks wonderful for her age, I cannot call you sisters as you DO NOT look 90! Your Mom has passed on her looks so you can see that you have a beautiful future ahead for many years.

Hi Sue,
Well this is different for sure. I'd never have thought to use the corner dies this way! I can imagine the design looking great using a dark colour for dramatic contrast too.
So pleased your mum liked yesterday's blog comments.

Gorgeous card, love that die and the lavender card. Hugs x ChrisB
Lovely elegant card Sue. So pleased you are having such a good time with your mum. X
Another great card Sue, I didn't realise it was the corner dies at first! I will try this one out as I have this set of dies. Debra W
Spot on with this write-up, I absolutely feel this website needs
a lot more attention. I'll probably be back again to read through more, thanks for the information!
Feel free to visit my blog post ... diets that work
Love this one and it's suitable for lots of occasions so would be a good one to have ready made with just the sentiment to add. Think I've got this die too, or the one that's very similar.

Beautiful card Sue. I love this die shape too. I really could do with this and some of the other dies - but it comes down to affordability... and I can't afford it! I do have some of the older shapes too - so may have to visit some of your older posts for inspiration in the hope that I see some samples using the shapes I do have!
have a lovely day

Lovely card. I managed to catch one of Julia's shows - it was good.
Lovely card, and I really like the offset design with the pearly embellishment on one side.
Glad your mum has had such a wonderful birthday, and is enjoying all the comments and good wishes sent to her!!

I watched Julia, she is very talented!
She has a knack with the dies aswell, lol xx
At last.... I'm able to make a comment! Don't you feel helpless and lost when the computer goes wrong? Luckily with my patient husband, we're now back on track! phew! this card is beautiful Sue. Loving the lavender and white and the long length. Plus those gorgeous, gorgeous corners. Just stunning! Hoping you are all managing to take it easy now after all the excitement! xx Love Karen xx
