Hi bloggers! I have had a few emails recently asking to see some cards using the
Die D-Lites. I started by embossing the white background card with my
A4 Heart Lattice embossing folder. I selected some raspberry card (from my stash) and used the
Grand Stately Circles cut cut my frames. I used three of the dies to get two frames. I skipped a size on the outer frame and then came back and added it during the embossing phase to add the detail on to the outer frame. I mounted this frame with mounting foam for height and recessed the smaller frame inside. I cut two of the
Flower Box D-Lite and inked the flowers and leaves with
Distress markers through the die. I nipped away a few of the edge flowers so it didn't show through my inside edge detail on the recessed frame. I glued the flower boxes side by side and the recessed frame over it . I stamped my sentiment on
coconut white card and cut it out with the
Ornamental Tag Two D-Lite. I inked it with
Victorian Velvet Distress ink while still in the die. I added a messy bow that was tied out of
white seam binding, then spritzed with water and scrunched for a shabby chic look! A
heart Dazzler adorns the centre of the bow. I added it to the side of my circular frame with a glue dot. I wanted just a tiny little bit extra on it so I cut out a
Butterfly Circle die out of
white glitter card. I used the tiny fall away butterfly pieces to add to the background and my sentiment. I love those tiny butterflies! I used some
flatback white pearls as embellishments to the corners and around the frame. Adding a double white mat finished the card (no piercing this time as it was already a very large card!). Finished dimensions are 8 1/2" x 8 1/2" in size. I also wanted to let everyone know that Sam Poole has two shows tooday on Create and Craft at 11am and 5pm. She has some brand new stamps and loads of beautiful samples and fun demos. Don't forget to tune in to see her in action! All for now, Sue x P.S. Did you notice it or not? LOL

Such a pretty simple card, suitable for many occasions.
What a good idea, I like how you have put the flower strip in the cut out circle - another great idea my simple brain had never given a thought to. Your imagination and skill is second to none.
Take care
Fabulous design. Embossing gives the card nice texture. The flower strip is a great idea when you attach it the way you did. Nice work.
Hugs,
Eemeli
Never thought to use circles Sue what a difference, such a pretty card. x
Love this card, great idea using the d'lites. Is the hearts upside down? Can't really notice. Hope you and your family are well. Janet
Good morning Sue
You have such a brilliant imagination and come up with fabulous ideas. I would never have noticed the upside down hearts if you hadn't pointed them out lol. I have set my recorder for Sam's shows because I will be out I love her demos I wish she was on more.
Hugs x

Morning Sue, a lovely card and I would not have noticed the upside down hearts if you had not said anything, I had to look really close to see it! I am going to an Andy Skinner workshop today so going to miss Sam's shows unfortunately . Love Jean xxx
Hi Sue, a lovely card , love the cicle dies. Are we noticing the upside down embossing folder? . Still looks good even if up the wrong way !!!! Lol Lynne M x x x

Morning Sue, no didn't notice, I had to go back and look at the pictures again! What a lovely card I love the grand circles and the ovals and often make "plate" cards. I hope everyone as a good day hugs Sonia x
Morning Sue, I did not notice either. What a brilliant idea but truly the other day I thought of a square back ground and using the grand circles with it but dismissed it. It just goes to show if we have an idea it is best to give it a go. So talented Sue. Love the card and will try it now. Have a great weekend.
Love June

Good Morning Sue,

Super card Sue, I wish I had those grand dies. I have one scalloped set (my first set of grands) but I don't know when I will be able to afford more, as they really add to any card. I too love those tiny butterflies, I do use them a lot.

No, I didn't notice it untill you mentioned it. It doesn't matter at all. Hearts are hearts in all directions :)
An absolutely lovely card. A real eyecatcher.
And I have already tuned in on C&C, don't want to miss a thing. I'm so lucky that I can have C&C on on the computer while I'm working. Pure luxury :)
Have a lovely week end, Sue :)

Hi Sue. What a pretty card, it is so delicate and the tiny butterfles just add the finishing touch! I love the embossing. (No, I hadn't noticed lol) Yet another reason why we love you so much Sue is that you are quite happy to show your little mistakes, shows that you are only human, albeit a very talanted one!

Lovely card. I'm just considering purchasing some d-lites for the first time.
Hi Sue Glad you showed this Ive just got these big circles. Love the colour. No I didn't notice but looked after you " pointed " it out. You really can't tell. Hearts are pretty either way.
Today's card is very pretty. I have puzzled about how to use the flower box die and will be copying this idea - thank you again Sue for sharing all your creativity.
Gorgeous card, love the grand circle die. Will look forward to watching Sam's shows later.

Good morning Sue from a beautiful sunny morning from the Ochil hills. What a really pretty card you have done for today. It is delicate and dainty as well as being noticeable. I like the fact that you have coloured in the window box flowers in true to life colours.
Have a lovely day and lets see what can be achieved today in my crafting world,
Take care

Good morning Sue and everyone.
Im in the didn't notice until you pointed it out camp, so next time I would keep it quiet if I were you lol . x
Fabulous card again Sue, yes, did notice you had the lattice heart design card upside down lol!!! Still looks fab though the hearts are so tiny no one would notice.
More inspiration for us all

Hi Sue - Another winner of a card. I love these grand circle dies and I have used them quite a bit and yet again you have given me more ideas! Didn't notice the hearts and really had to look hard to discover them. Enjoy your weekend. YvonneMayxx
Hi Sue, Pretty card. What is it with the heart lattice, that it is upside down again. Though I doubt I would have noticed had you not hinted there was a woopsie!
Take care now, love from Jackie C XXX
This has to be one of my favourite cards you have shown us Sue. I love the design, the colours and the sentiment. Pat x
Hi Sue,
Couldn't see it until I looked at the comments! It's such a lovely combination of dies.
Hi Sue, I love this card, these dies are gorgeous. The raspberry colour is stunning. I noticed the hearts are upside down again, but only because you mentioned it, wouldn't have noticed it myself.

Hi Sue. A lovely card for today !! I love the grand circle dies but I don't have them yet. They are on my wish list. I like the flowers and butterflies dies to but more important to me right now is getting a new background folder. Have to look after my other half at the moment because he was getting ready for work yesterday morning and fell over the dog bed!! (It has is a plastic outer bed case.) He ended up in A+E and fractured his elbow which cannot be plastered because of its location !! I am the one who is ill and now I have to look after him too !! Still I can't complain as while he was dosed up on pain killers he bought me Radiant rectangles !! well sue your card is great, colours are great and I just love your upside down background !! Love Tres x x x
fab card love the grand circles and the embossing.Laura o
Sorry Sue, the first thing I did when I saw it was the heart lattice was check to see if it was upside down! I'm sure it was done purposely to keep us on our toes lol! You wouldn't notice unless you were looking out for it.
Another beautiful card I have all these dies and haven't even had them out of the package yet shame on me!!! I will rectify this today and attempt this card.
Hugs Sue x
Morning Sue, Gorgeous card. I remember this one from the shows and remember you said the embossed white piece was upside down. However, it doesn't spoil the card at all. Have a good weekend. Kind regards Joanne K x
Hi Sue, gorgeous card and great you are using a grand set of dies. No I did not see a mistake. Those hearts are so small easy to miss which way up they are.
Morning Sue, fabulous card, upside down or not, you really have to look quite hard to notice. Ready for Sam's demos today, take care, Jess x
Morning Sue, I certainly did not notice. This is a beautiful card, I do love the larger ones. Have a brilliant weekend.

Hello Sue, This card is really beautiful, love the raspberry and great use of dies. The flowers and butterflies are sooo delicate, the colouring of the flowers is fantastic really makes them pop. I have just got this die and will be having a play.

Have a great day everyone.

How pretty is that!! Love the colours, the muted pink lovely and the dies you used Sue, really pretty, tfs :)
I love these big dies, they are so useful. Never noticed the hearts, so many other things to look at on this lovely card. Watching Sam on C&C just now getting messy with the lovely guilding wax. Looking forward to seeing you back on TV.

Hi Sue, very clever of you to have 2 designs on the embossing folder - spades and hearts! Lovely card.
Hugs, Belinda. X
Hi Sue
Yes I did notice another upside down backing, but only because you mentioned it on your previous upside down card. It makes you look more intently at your cards, not to pick faults but to see all the detail in your work.
I'm planning a friend and family bar-b-q in a few weeks....weather permitting, and this card would make a lovely invitation to send rather than a phone call. Very pretty.

Hi Sue, a beautiful card even like
the spades don't have the large

very decorative love them.

Hi Sue
Such a lovely simple card today. The flower strip is a lovely idea that you can amend to suit. Love the raspberry colour that you have used. just checked my recording as I thought I had missed Sam's demos. But it was under creative expressions and I had recorded them. Hope you have a lovely weekend.
Hi sue this is a lovely card and I'm really pleased you are going to show some cards using the d-lites dies as I have lots of them but sometimes don't have a clue what to do!! Lol. I have recorded Sams show as I love what she does and I already have the owl stamps which she is using today. Norah it was great to see you mention the Ochill hills as I was born in Sauchie and most people have never heard of Any of the places in the area!! Lol live in London since I was little tho. Love Lesley x
This time I did notice simply because you drew our attention to it last time! A beatiful card. I love the Grand Stately Circles and what you've done with them here. Amazing versatility. The flower box looks D-Liteful inside the circle. Have a great weekend.

Late today - laptop played up this morning and thank goodness is now behaving itself.
A truly beautiful summer gift today and does it really matter that the heart is pouring out its love rather than keeping it all to itself!
The colours are lovely and the format is a wonderful plate of summer treats. I haven't got the circles but I do have the squares so will have to do a modification and see what happens.
We have sunshine and it's warm today so fingers crossed it will still be here on your return.
Hugs and best wishes to 'Mom' and all your family and friends there - it will be so nice to have you back.

Hello everyone! This is such a pretty, pretty card Sue. The raspberry card makes it look good enough to eat like a 99 ice cream cornet topped with strawberry sauce.....mmmmmmm! The circle dies are stunning and a great idea putting the flowers in the middle. I love the heart folder and no, never noticed that the hearts were upside down! Just goes to show how much it matters, it still looks gorgeous! Love the little butterflies too. Ooooo yes, missed the 11am show with Sam but won't miss the 5pm one....I have it on timer and I'm watching the clock too so I won't miss it! Method in the madness....somewhere...!

I thought you had put the heart upside down again but it still look good .Melanie K
Hi Sue- The hearts are upside down, but if you hadn't said something was wrong I wouldn't have noticed. This is a really pretty and feminine card, I adore the hearts embossing folder. I have Sam's programmes recorded so can watch at leisure. Can't miss this glorious weather we are having here so taking full advantage and relaxing (and working) in the garden.

Lovely card Sue, and you hardly notice that the lattice hearts in the embossed background are upside down again!!! I should have been a copy-writer LOL! If only I could design as well as you, I might also get to hide my mistakes a bit more easily.
Thanks, Susan
You are such an inspiration. Such a beautiful card yet again

lovely sue wouldn't have thought of using them this way
hugs chris x
Dear Sue this is a gorgeous card and perfectly summery to match the lovely sunshine we've had today.
It took a few reads to get what you did with the stately circle dies but I eventually understood -I'm a bit slow on the uptake sometimes!
If you hadn't said something was different I wouldn't have looked and looked at the card so hard and eventually saw you've made teardrop gemstone shaped embossing instead of hearts on the lattice pattern! I like it both ways up so don't worry about it. Maybe write 'top' on when you've worked out where it is on the embossing folder? So you don't get these things happening I have to write on which way the embossed side comes up on so I put my card in the right side up! But then I like your cards when they look different and most the time I don't spot anything unless you point it out.
I love the flower box die d-lite die cuts and the way you've coloured them with the distress markers, I'm hoping that pro markers with the ultra fine nib on would have a similar effect? As I don't have distress markers nor flex markers. The flowers look so pretty across the circle die cut. I'd never have thought of using them in the circle I'd always think of straight edged cards for it...how you stretch my mind with wonderful creations.
The ornamental tag looks much better once you see it used on a card (than when c&c show you the die cuts boards they use, as I can't always see where or how I can use a die like this one so easily as other dies).
I use the butterfly cut outs too from the butterfly circle as I can't bear to throw them away as they are so sweet!
I Love the bow and dazzler also. Such a wonderful card today. Thank you.
Best wishes and hugs
From Katie-Louise Sweetlove x
Hi Sue clever use of circles and dies
