morning Sue
from a very cold and frosty morning here in Burgundy.
It may be cold outside but today's gift is a lovely warm and engaging feeling.
Gold and white are so gentle and very classical in style and today's format is a simple one but reminds us to think out of the box sometimes. A beautiful card for any occasion.

GM Sue - another great card and video thanks. The trouble is they make me feel like crafting when really I must do some housework! Not that I am complaining - please dont think that - I think they would be wonderful to watch when you need to find you mojo as they are very motivating I find.

Hi Sue a beautiful card and the video along side it is great. Really enjoyed watching x
Got to rush out this morning Will look later Card looks interesting & at first glance I can't quite work out how it's done
Hi Sue,
Love the card. Enjoying the videos. X
Hi Sue,
Oh what a lovely card - so clever with the off-centre look! You make it look so easy in your video but I'm sure I would take a LOT longer to get the things lined up correctly. It'll be a challenge AFTER xmas cards ............
By the way, a friend of mine recently commented to me that she is using your cascading hearts folder all the time, she simply can't let it be....
I'm a seagarden addict.....
Hugs, Rose
Hi Sue,
The card looks beautiful.
I'm off to watch the video.
I love them, thanks.

Just love your videos, what a splendid idea and the finished cards. Happy Halloween hugs Cheryl xxx
Hi Sue,
I just love watching the videos it really does make it so much easier to try and recreate one of your wonderful creations. Don't have this die but am wondering if it would work with the large snowflake die. I guess I'll just have to go and a play - housework can wait lol.
Beverley w
I saw a card with an offset aperture on the Spellbiner website and thought it looked fab and it's on my list of things to have a go at. Lovely to see you doing it too and showing me how to do it.
Hi Sue,
Another stunning card. Looks complicated but when you watch the video and see how you do it, its so easy. Sometimes when I read how you do it I don't quite understand but now its great watching the expert and learning new things all the time.
Thanks Sue.
Alison B. x
Good Morning Sue. Oh so pretty. Can't wait to get started.

Another fabulous card and video. TFS xx Jan
Hi Sue. Such a beautiful card today !! I loved your video today although the picture was a bit blurry. The blossom die is great and I loved your colour combo. I use the soft gold card on loads An unusual idea to offset the main die but I do like it. The micro beads look fab as always.
Following on from the comment by Rose in Chester. She says her favourite folder is the sea garden one and her friend likes the cascading hearts. Well I have the sea garden folder on order but so far my ultimate favourite folder is the tapestry one. It seems perfect for use with any occasion !! I do however love my heart lattice one to. Thanks for all your hard work in making these videos Sue they are wonderful. They have given me many new ideas and inspiration. Happy Halloween to everyone. Have a spooky day love Tres x x x
Good morning Sue
Happy Halloween everyone!
What a lovely card so crisp and elegant looking, love it.

Hi Sue, beautiful card, new technique for me so your video is a great help - video was blurry today whereas the others have been crystal clear!

Another lovely card. Love goldy ones.
LOVING, LOVING the videos!!! THANK YOU sooooooooooo much for taking time to do this! I am a VISUAL learner, and learning a lot this way!!! Fantastic card!!!!
Sue
How could you - I'd just made up my mind to do my Christmas cards that you kindly sent me the instructions for and now you throw this one at me. It really isn't fair. Now I'm gonna have to play some more.
Belinda Raven said...
Hi Sue, I thought it strange that the video was blurry playing it from your blog so when I saw Julia's tweet promoting today's video I clinked on her link, which opened your blog and I played the video which was crystal clear!!! So, I went back to your blog using my browser, played the video and it was blurry!!! Technology can be very frustrating - I feel for you when you've gone to so much trouble to make these super videos.
Hugs, Belinda. X
Nice card Sue X happy crafting
What an awesome card here again Sue, it´s just sooo gorgeous as ever.
Hi Sue,

VERY NICE OFFSET TO THE SIDE. SMASHING GOLD AND WHITE LOOKS SO EXPENSIVE. I THINK THE BEADS A REAL WAY TO ADD TEXTURE. I ROLL OVER MINE WITH A PIECE OF PAPER AND BRAYER. WONDERFUL CARD.

Sharon c. You do a wonderful job with your videos. Great techniques and super cards. Your blog is a must see on my list when I am checking out blogs. I do appreciate that I can comment without having to open other accounts.
Hi Sue! "Wow!" stunning card yesterday. Loved the gilding flakes you used. When I saw the aperture I thought, I'm sure I have something similar and I did! It was the Filigree Delights! Was I a happy bunny? Oh yesss! Todays card is gorgeous. Loved watching the video and the giving of instructions on how you did it. It's brilliant of you and we can keep going back and forth as we please! Take care Sue and "thank you" xx Love Karen xx
