On Your Special Day

Hi my crafty friends!  Think navy blue not black here for this one.  I used my Cascading Hearts folder to emboss the white background.  Then I used my Heart Lattice folder to create a wide border to go down the side.  At each lattice cross there is a tiny heart, but I have added a pearl there to accentuate the lattice pattern.  I used the Adorning Squares to cut the decorative navy frame for my focal element.  For this, I lined up the largest four dies in the set and this is what you get. I cut another using just the largest and the inside frame die out of white card so I was able to glue a white backing piece on my frame.   I placed mounting foam on the back to raise the frame.  I stamped my sentiment and embossed it in silver.  I cut it out with the smaller die in the set and recessed it down in the centre of my frame.  I used a length of the sheer ribbon that is navy on one side and silver on the other side to tie a double bow.  I added a Tim Holtz embellishment to the centre of it and used two pearl stick pins as accents.  I matted the piece with a thin mat of navy blue before adding my double white mats that I pierced the edges on the inner mat.  Finished dimensions are 7" x 8 1/2" in size.  I think it would make a lovely wedding card, they don't always have to be all white, now do they!  All for now, Sue x

  10. This card is beautiful and I just love your embossing folders. They managed to hop into my basket and cannot wait for them to arrive. All the cards shown on the show were fantastic and I'm so glad I missed the Leigh show as the stamps joined the embossing folders in my basket. Your talent is something people like me only dream about but thanks to your generosity and sharing your cards and techques here, I've been able to improve my card making. Enjoy the rest of the shows, I for one will be glued to the TV.
    Take care

  21. Hi Sue. What a gorgeous card. Yes, lovely for a wedding, just change the blue (which I love) to personalize it if you know the colour scheme. Great show at 9pm last night. Loving all your new items. I was very lucky and got the embossing folders as an early birthday present. Will be watching the rest of the shows. Take care.

  22. Beautiful card Sue, today andloved all the examples on the shows yesterday. I was so disappointed that all the embossing folders were bundled together, and none available separately. My budget wouldn't run to them all together. When will they be available elsewhere?

    Your stamps to die for are fantastic such a clear crisp impression and already mounted heaven.
    Looking forward to more shows today thankyou for all your beautiful samples you must have worked so hard and it is very much appreciated take care.

    Today's card is just stunning, have watched the 2nd show as my recording of the 1st did not work, but fingers crossed I will get to see all today's shows.
    I saw on facebook yesterday that spellbinders have brought out a GC food safe model and food safe dies for cake decorating do you know if this will be coming over here ?
    Have a great day and enjoy your weekend at Ally Pally and happy crafting

  48. GM Sue - love this - it's a must try! Do I spy a new style of dazzler? or am I dreaming?... it looks liney rather than dotty if you know what I mean?! Saw your 9pm show - I love the embossing folders but I didn't want them all - can we have them individually please in future perhaps? Love the double embossing folder technique - really creative - must try that. Will be watching all day today, if there's anything left!

  55. Saw the 9 p.m. show and the other repeat this morning - fabulous samples, as ever, Sue.
    I realise lots must have the money to just keep on buying, but there are also many of us who can't afford to keep up with the avalanche of new dies.
    So what with not being able to get the A4 folders separately, and the usual instant sell-outs of many of the singles (???) - have not ordered anything. Again. Boo hoo.
    Today's card - another masterpiece!!

    Good morning Sue,
    Absolutely BEAUTIFUL.
    I've got the majority of the dies on offer yesterday and shall lose no time in creatin this beautiful frame. Have to wait for your embossing folders though and use one of my others in the meantime.

    They're playing about with the TV channels so can't get ANYTHING at the moment, retuning doesn't find anything either. What a frustrating state of affairs! But shall keep on trying.

  58. Hello Sue

    Your card is lovely and I can see with the samples you have made a subtle change in your style they are quite a bit different to one you have done before. Maybe you have been inspired with your new folders and the new dies.

    I managed to stay awake for part of the first show but Mon - Wed are non stop 14 hour days for me so am shattered when I do get home but I managed to get all the gilding wax and your lovely embossing folders so I am a happy bunny and will catch up with the shows later.

  60. Hi Sue,

    Today's card is absolutely gorgeous. Managed to see the 11pm show and was disappointed to see that the embossing folders and lattice die had sold out.

    Stunning card, the new embossing folders are (excuse the pun) to die for. Couldn't stretch to them this time but they have gone straight to the top of my wish list.

  88. Good morning Sue,
    your new embossing folders are beautiful and its good to have a big folder so that you don't need to keep moving the card around and there are no lines to hide with ribbon, although there will still be ribbon on the cards even if its not disguising. Have a lovely day at C&C

  90. Morning Sue,
    Only caught the 11pm show, loved the card samples you showed. I didn't buy anything I have found that I can find the dies much cheaper on line and I don't have to buy big bundles.
    Your embossing folders look lovely, but again such a big bundle. my budget won't stretch to it. I'll wait until they are sold separately.
    Love the navy and white card today very classic.
    Will be watching the rest of your shows today, hope you get plenty of time to demonstrate.

  120. Hi Sue,
    Well you have done it again!! I looked at the C and C website but there was no picture for the embossing folders so waited until I could see them but when I got back last night for the 11 pm show unsurprisingly they had gone so it is nice to get a peek of what I missed on today's card. having ordered the big bundle before I have it seems one set of dies from each of the bundles this time so my bank balance is amazingly still intact!! Super card today and I am enjoying the demos I have seen so far but wonder if you will still be there by the time last Chance comes around.
    love from Jackie D

    Hi sue I love this card the adorning squares is a very elegant die and I'm glad that I got the potd with this in as I somehow managed to miss buying it before!! I also bought your folders,some gilding wax and flakes and a couple of your stamp sets!! I think I overspent and will probably regret it next month!! Lol but your folders and stamps are wonderful and I couldn't resist. Looking forward to the rest of your shows today love Lesley x

  143. Hi Sue. What a fab card for today !! As always it is gorgeous !! I love everything about this card. The adorning squares look great. Another one to add to my wish list. !! Last night and today have been really horrible for me because I cannot stop myself watching you on tv because you are fantastic but at the same time I am not allowed to buy anything as I am coming to Alley Palley on Saturday !! I cannot wait to go as I will be visiting Alley Palley for the first time in four and a half years due to illness and financial problems. I am still ill but I am determined to go this time. My other half is taking me and my step daughter who loves crafting too !! I really hope I will get to say hello to you. Yourself and the glitter girls are my crafting heros. Lots of love Tres x x x

  169. This is a fab card, Sue, and I loved your shows. Didn't have to try to sit on my hands, the coffers are empty!! Have lots to choose from anyway when funds trickle back!! I tried my first black in a card, and yay! It is a good colour to use! You have converted me! I did a black and soft gold congrats card for a man and it was a perfect combo. So, thank you Sue, I now can't wait to try more combinations. Hugs Annie

  176. Very good blog! Do you have any recommendations for aspiring writers?
    I'm hoping to start my own blog soon but I'm a little lost on everything.
    Would you recommend starting with a free platform like Wordpress
    or go for a paid option? There are so many options out there that I'm completely overwhelmed .. Any ideas? Appreciate it!

    Enjoying the shows on C & C...but a little (understatement) frustrated that I'll have to wait for pay day to buy any of the new goodies!
    So happy to see the Celtic Knot dies... gorgeous, as are the samples you created!

    Thank you for sharing!

    Have only managed to catch a few glimpses of your shows today, so I seem to have missed lots of items that sold out before I got to see them!! Love your cardi though - really pretty!
