Good Sunday morning! Today is the day for my last shows of the year! It does seem like it has been forever since I was last in the studio, but I am pleased to bring some really lovely products to you. As you can probably guess, I am completely smitten with this die set. One of the things that I absolutely love when crafting, is to put two cards side by side that have been made with the same die set and yet look so completely different, you never would have guessed. It just tickles me no end when I can do that. If you haven't seen yesterday's post, then take a quick look and see what I mean, same set, completely different look about them! I used a new embossing folder called
Extra Confetti from Couture Creations to create the textured milk coloured background on this one. I extended it to give me a larger sized background. I cut four of the tag die from
Becca's Filigree Bracket Labels in black. I cut each of them in half and mounted them peeking out from behind the Splendid Circle die cut out of milk card. I stamped my sentiment which is from a new set called
Bold Sentiments set by Creative Expressions and cut it out with one of the smaller circles in that set. I inked it with
Antique Linen distress ink while still in the die. We have a lovely new
felt pack on the show and I used the cream colour from the pack to create the flowers. I cut it using the
Vintage Florets die set by Heartfelt Creations. I layered the flowers up and cascaded them across the card. I added a messy bow tied from
chalk coloured seam binding along with a
black jute twine bow as accents. I finished the card with a couple of
pearl swirls, a thin mat of black and a double milk mat with a pierced layer. The card is very pretty in person, hopefully you will be able to get a closer look at this one on today's shows at 12 to 2pm and then again at 5 pm. I also have another surprise for you on the show today as another one of our new demonstrators, Kim Robertson, will be on the show with me today. Kim has been a member of the Heartfelt Creation Design team along with Nikki Payne (who was on Julia's shows last Sunday) and they both have also joined the Creative Expressions team. Let's give her a great big warm welcome today!
It's Sunday, so it is also time once again for the Comment Game winners for this week. The winners are:
Sheila Lampard!!!
Julie Bee!!!
Joan D!!!

Wow, Sue, this is simply lovely. One look at that tag die yesterday made me lust after it, and clever use again today - what a different look!
Fab - and flowers AND a bow too. Think this one will please us all!! Also like that new embossing folder.
See you later and have some good shows.

Oh. My. Goodness. What a stunning work of art. Sunday smiles and high fives to our Sue and beautiful Wilsonettes. At last the count down of sleeps is over and we are all waiting with sheer anticipation for our VERY long awaited for Sue Shows ! Hope we have some decent long standing presenters with you Sue.
Im just miffed that I have to record the 2 hour show, but cant wait to watch you at 5 : ) what will be REALLY nice is that I will hear the names of my new friends here read out on the shows and it makes me smile when I recognise your names, even bigger smiles when you are picked out to win the demo cards, so good luck to all Wilsonettes who email CC today (they better get extra cups ready) !!
Its going to be nice to see a new member of the team, but being purely selfish now, after waiting for what seems a lifetime of waiting for 'Our Leader' and friend to return to our screens we want a full 2 hour's of you to reward our patience, and that sounds SOOO mean, but Im sure it will be a great show - as you say Sue, same die set different makes : )
Welcome back Sue. Enjoy your day Wilsonettes. And cant wait to get back after my craft fair to catch up and watch at 5
Congrats dear Wilsonettes are winning the comment game.
Hugs to ALL.
Lancashire Steph xx

A truly beautiful gift today - I love the colours of cream/black together - they are so classical and never fail to impress. I said yesterday the new dies look wonderful and as you say used differently give a totally different look.

Morning Sue, Well as always Sue you've Blown me Away with your Awesome Card, I love how you have used The Becca Feekan Filigree Bracket Label and created such a Beautiful Card I wouldn't have even thought of this, mind you I'm not Sue! I love the Background I always love the Folders from Couture Creations it's such a shame they don't do A4 Folders as I've got so used to using yours and the couple from Spellbinder. I Love those Flowers on your Card. I'm so thrilled for the Winners of the Comment contest, also I would like to say Congratulations to Jackie for winning the Wednesday Card I'm sure you'll love it.

I only said I would do it today if I could have your show on as well - might get some new followers. Good luck for the show Sue xxx

Hi Sue! I'm back from the back and beyond! What a gorgeous sight to see. This is beautiful.

Good evening Sue and all our lovely Sue devotees,
Well after a hard days wrapping and still not finished, the back is even worse than normal, the necks out so Quasimodo lookalike in Glenochil tonight, thank goodness i pressed record last night so that i wouldn't miss a single bit of our rare gold Sue shows.
What a lovely card again today Sue and its amazing just what the imagination can do with just looking deeper into the dies. Although i saw titbits of today's shows, i will enjoy them tomorrow when hubby is at works, daughter starts new job as a nurse in the hospital (she has just graduated with a degree in nursing, v.p.m.- very proud mum), and son at school. Me and dog on settee with cuppa in one hand and other clapping her to reduce stress levels.
I hope all today's winners enjoy their prize.
Take care everyone and to the multi-talented lady herself, oh its so good to see you on t.v. again.
Love and crafty hugs
Norah
Hello Sue, Congratulations on your fabulous shows, so good to have you back, Kim did great a pleasure to watch. Today's card is beautiful, love the colours and the textures. The flowers are scrummy. Congratulations to the winners.

I am both new to your blog and relatively new to C&C too. I absolutely love Couture Creations Embossing Folders and that is the first thing I see when I look at a card. I love the one you have used for this card and I can't wait to get it. I have over 200 embossing folders, a lot of which are Couture Creations although I cannot pick a favourite as they are all stunning. I am going to enjoy following your blog and thank you for all your wonderful demonstrations and inspiration. Crafty Hugs Rachel Xx
