Hello bloggers! I have had a few requests to show this one on the blog so here it is. I have to admit that I am rather fond of this one myself, but I just love black and white cards. I stamped the open daisy from the Taylored Expressions Oops A Daisy set on coconut white card with a black archival ink pad. Next I covered it with a sticky adhesive sheet. I peeled the backing paper away and then covered it with Iced Snow for a blingy effect. You can see it nicely in the close ups below. Next I cut a Grand Square frame and I used one of the in between sizes to emboss a bit of detail into the frame.I added mounting foam to the back of the frame. I cut four of the Filigree corner die from Becca Feeken and attached them to the underside of the square frame. I attached the frame over my blingy stamped background and trimmed off any excess around the edge. Next I stamped my sentiment from the set and cut the ends into a fork and matted it with a thin black mat. I glued it into place across my frame. I stamped two of the daisies using a clear perfect medium pad and heat embossed them with white detail powder. I cut them out with the matching die set and adhered them to the edge of the frame, slightly overlapping my sentiment tag and each other. I added some small 3mm flatback pearls to the centres and some Diamond Sprinkles. I made a double white pierced mat for the card to frame and finish it nicely. Finished dimensions are 7 3/4" x 7 3/4" in size. All for now, Sue x

Morning Sue - Yes it's a winner from me too. Love the filigree corner - waiting for the postman to deliver 2 packages... then I can start playing. Haven't got a daisy stamp, but any flower would do.

Hello Sue
What a lovely card. Black and white work so well together. I like this stamp set as you have effectively positive and negative versions of the flower. Such a striking effect.

Beautiful card Sue, and an unusual way to use the daisy stamps and dies. X x
morning Sue from a very very wet and windy Sheffield.
Thank you for today's gift - I too love black/white - it is such a classic combination and doesn't offend anyone.
At the moment today's basic format seems to be my favourite as I have used it for quite a few bday cards and have just finished cutting and making up six kits using this format for my next two weekly crafty afternoon with my 'crafty friends' next Tuesday.The first in 2014 - where has the year gone.
Hope all loved ones who are poorly are on the mend.

Absolutely stunning!
Hi Sue really liking these Taylored expression products. This card is stunning, love the stamps and corners make it elegant. It looks good with the white embossing too and I have just started to do this. Agree this card would look good in so many colours. Nice to hear Tracy W 's dad and Cameel's son improving. X

Denise Hancock X
Hello Sue!
Today is the opposite of yesterday really wet, and windy, so I sit with my back to the weather, and look at the wonderful card you have made Sue!
I love how you achieved the background and used the corners to finish it off!
Lovely Sue !.....I will try maybe today but minus those stamps!
Glad everyone is on the mend!
Take care
Love Marg
Lovely card Sue stunning happy crafting x
Lovely Sue, I like the black and white cards too.
Hugs Michelle xxxx
I am beginning to love these black and white cards of yours. It was not always my colour choice, but they are growing on me. Hugs and best wishes for the new year to all the Wilsonettes
Cheryl xxx.
Good morning Sue all fellow Wilsonettes,
I like the positive/negative colour ways in today's card Sue. The little pearl accents you have used for the centers just finish the daisies off beautifully. I like the white against the black as it looks more delicate i suppose to me. And the new stamps and dies you brought to C&C are lovely but will need to wait until i have pennies again, which will not be this side of E****r i fear. And the CHA launch of the new Spellbinders will be coming, so i think i will need to block the channel so i wont be tempted.
Oh what a horrible day out there today. I think today is a day for playing and experimenting.
Hope to see everyone tomorrow,
Love and crafty hugs
Norah (Glenochil)
Good morning Sue
Another stunning creation from you, I love the iced snow background (nearly as much as I love micro beads lol) Becca Feeken products are beautiful and always make amazing cards when used. Steph I'll own up I also cut bits of the cards I've received, I have also been known to cut the ribbons off jumpers etc to use on my cards.
Hugs
Heather T
WOW soooooo beautiful card here again today. Love the look of this one.
gorgeous card, really clean and elegant.
Hello Sue, This is a stunner, the black and white so classy, love the touch of sparkle and pearls to the centre of the daisies. The stamps have moved to the top of my need list.
Hugs to Tracy W and Dad, pleased to hear he is on the mend.
Sue thank you for showing this gorgeous card, you have so much talent and are generous in sharing.
Have a great day everyone.
Hugs June xxx
MORNING SUE
LOVE THIS CARD TOO.IT'S SO CLEAN AND SHARP YOU CANN'T BEAT BLACK AND WHITE.
Such a beautiful card Sue. Love using the iced snow - I used this on some of my cards this Christmas and got lots of comments. Love the corners, but will have to make do with ones I already have! Best wishes
YvonneMayxx
Morning Sue,

Good morning Sue,
How I love this card, and I slso had the die and stamp sets for Christmas !
I will be giving this one a go.
Gail C x
Really lovely card Sue. Like you I love black and white. I'm guessing it may be on one of my recordings I have yet to watch, finger crossed! xx
Morning Mrs W. Morning Wilsonettes. Goodness me, what a dreadful day up North in ayup country ! Cant see the Peakes thanks to this miserable day - but hayho, hibernation = more craft, so I should stop moaning really. I remember watching you demo this card Sue, I salavated then and Im salavating all over again, making such a mess on my phone ! The colour of the card almost looks a creamy white not a true stark white, is it my phone screen as not on laptop, never the less, its so beautiful and uplifting, and not only do I now love using adhesive paper and pretty ultra fine almost clear glitters, and micro beads, Ive started to 'fork' my sentiments, I have to type and print most of my sentiments and matt them, but doing it that way I find I can cater for many more members of a family such as step parents, Nephews, Great Grandparents etc, but I need to find an easier way to cut the forks even so they match perfectly, otherwise they dont get used ! Ive had 2 orders now for Great Nephew so thank goodness I can type these out as I can do just what people ask for (plus I take them with me to markets/fairs) so people can have what they want (maybe Sue you can put this to the people you work with ) and ask for a 'complete' sheet of family relative ornate stamps to cover all family members ! Believe me when I say its hard to stop when you start ! Just think of all the combinations and there is loads !!! Im so really happy I have found your blog Sue as it really opens our eyes and minds (and bank accounts) should we get lost in the maze, we can sit and take time to browse through your past cards to help kick start us again, and even if we dont have the tools, you have given us idea's we sometimes lack. If ONLY you could open my mind to the sports cards that Ive just been asked for, not forgetting one for 'geeky scientist !!!! Ohhh dearrr and.4 of them ALL different !! No bows, no sparkles, what do I do ??!! Yes I have a sheet of sport themed stamps, but how on EARTH can I make them look 'classie for 60 & 40th birthdays ? Maybe the secret will have to hide in the background -.what do you think ? I SO need help here : /
Time to finish one order I did yesterday, sent them a photo of it so they could approve or 'tweek' (like to please as they are buying) they liked, so time to get sticking - thank goodness for our 'wonder glue' from Wonder Sue' : )
Love to all my beautiful Wilsonettes.
Lancashire Steph xxx
ps anyone with sixth sense that can penetrate my mind with sporting classie card ideas try..... Now, and good luck getting through, pea size brain to penitrate !! xxx
Morning Sue. I thought this was one of the best cards you demonstrated (out of a fantastic set!) and I loved it. I missed the stamps first time round but have similar which I will use to approximate it!
Take care.
Christine x
Hi Sue,
This is what I call a WOW! card.x
Good morning Sue
I love this card. Putting sparkle on top of a plain stamped background absolutely transforms it! Genius!
Black and White is so classy. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Sue, I love this card. Saw you making it on tv and I love black and white cards. Good news that your Dad is home Tracy. Take care everyone in this foul weather. Down here in Wiltshire it is very wet and windy.

I love this card. I'm already thinking of using it as inspiration for a card using the corner die from the Blossom kit (I think that's what it's called!)Like lancashire Steph I print my sentiments etc and can probably print a black & white background and transform the look with sticky sheet and glitter/micro beads. Thanks Sue for the info on re-inkers and you're an absolute star for your help. LANCASHIRE STEPH - FOR SPORTIE CARDS I TRY AND FIND WHO THEY SUPPORT AND DO A CARD CONNECTED WITH THAT TEAM ETC OR DO A VINTAGE STYLE CARD WITH PICTURES IN SEPIA - hope that helps

Hi Sue,
This is IT - friends birthday coming up and was wondering what to do for her card, so going to nick this one, thank you x
Hi Sue
You have made my day!!! I loved this card so much that I ordered the oops-a-daisy set on C&C and have loved using them, wish they looked as good as this though!!!
Best wishes, Pat
Hi Sue
Love the black and white combo, starting putting Christmas away so that I can get my crafty stash back out, have just one card to make for this month as I have done all the others before Christmas, so my new year resolution is to try and keep ahead of all cards at least a month before they are due, wish me luck I make this every year ha ha.
Happy crafting
Love Tina x
Hi Sue, a beautiful card. The white & black is so elegant.
Another beautiful card Sue.
Hello Sue,
I love this card, the monochrome effect is be classy, and the frame you have created around the composition really sets the whole thing off beautifully - I just love it!!!!
Hope everyone is having a good day, it's very wet and windy here in south London, but hey Ho we can get crafting, and not care about the weather.
Take care, love Brenda xxx
Mornin sue and gang.
I just love black and white I use this combo a lot. The wee daisies look so cute but if I buy anything else I fear hubby might divorce me!!! Lol
For Lancashire steph: if ur looking for sports or geeky scientist I would suggest u try www.craftsuprint. As I've bought loads of weird and cookie suggestions from them for a quick card let us know how u get on!!! (Sorry sue)
Love Tracy from killie xx
Sorry Sue, this card does nothing for me.
Hi Sue,
Hi all fellow crafters! What a day! The rain is blowing sideways- if that makes any sense! Good day for crafting.
Unfortunately few other things need attention first.
I loved this card when I saw the Demo on C&C , Sue. It looks even better today! Thanks so much for the close-up photos as they really bring it to life and are such a help.
Steph, this may or may not be helpful but for your " forks" - I find it helpful to cut a plain piece of copy paper same size as piece to be forked! Then I snip one corner through both pieces (card and paper) - then carefully turn paper piece over cut card now you have a cut line to copy which makes your fork symmetrical!!
I'm no Sue Wilson but it might help!
Love to all, Myra
Love the monotone look and just the right amount of bling. Fabulous card!
Hugs,
Eemeli
Thank you Karen, Karen, Karen : ) !! And Myra. Will try both suggestions, now totally bald after trying to track down something for a 60yr to be female golfer who also likes tennis and cycling ! Plus a 60yr to be Geeky scientist !!! If I can pull THESE off to customers spec, then Im putting MYSELF up for an O.B.E !! In fact I dont know WHY our Leader hasn't been decorated for what Sue has done for the crafting world ! Compared to some of the idiots that have for the most stupid of 'things' acheived, then someone that has done something REAL and outstanding for communities etc should be recognised for that fact. THERE - another waffle - rant style ! Cover THAT with diamond sparkles Maam !
Lancashire totally bald and gaga Steph : 0 xx
Happy New Year.Another fab design. Love the idea and design. Could you possibly do a series on creating designs made in quantity rather than one offs as you would need to do for invitations etc?
A beautiful card Sue

The filigree corners are gorgeous.
Hi Sue
I too love black and white cards, they always look so elegant. I am also a bit of a tart for a bit of glitter, but iced snow is just a bit different and adds a lovely sparkle. I like the use of pearls on the flowers, such a pretty touch.
Kind regards :-)
