Ruched Enchanted Gold
Hi crafters! It's Tuesday video day and I have a pretty milk and black card with some great techniques to share today. I hope you will enjoy it!
Finished dimensions are 6 1/2" x 9" in size. All for now Sue x
Hi Sue and all the crafty crew, Lovely Lovely Lovely!! I am just drooling, it looks amazing and elegant have a lovely day I am off to tell my boss I have been shortlisted!! Cameeli xx
Hi Sue Lovely ruching and just going to watch the video for more techniques. Good luck to Cameeli for 23rd. Richmond? which one? Have a good day everyone. Sheila (from Chislehurst, Kent)x
Hi Sue, As always Awesome Video that I will watch many times, I really love "The JustRite Floral Stamp Set" and it's great how you ruched the Ribbon either side of your stamped image, and those Fabulous Gilding Waxes they are brilliant on your project, I store mine in a A5 container when you open the lid they smell is divine if you like that sort of thing!!! It shows up on your background so well, and like you mentioned just the touch of Antique Linen Distress Ink which is great as it's not to heavy around the edges of your stamped images once they've been through the Grand Calibur, "Fantastic Card" as always Sue thanks for sharing and the wonderful Video's I know it must take up a lot of your time when your home but they are so much appreciated!!! love and hugs from Sam x Cameeli I don't know you but Good Luck For The 23rd!!!
GM Sue - great card - like the DIY piramage technique - must have a go at that. Managed to watch your demos on the C&C website yday on my computer - lovely - not the same as watching the TV though! Rgs Clare W
Morning Sue wonderful card love it as its black and white my favarite. Love the ruching idea. Im of to watch the video now so see you back here tomorrow xxx
Morning Sue, Good Luck to Cameeli on 23rd. I watched my recording of your Show on C&C, oh Sue I will never have any money haha, thank goodness for Flexipay, as I had to have both bundles. I loved your video today, and your card is stunning, I really love the focal image stamp, and the ruching is so pretty, definitely an Art Deco feel. Lots of love from Patricia xx
Thank you for another great video, Sue, love the small details - subtle waxing on the background, colouring on the pyramage edges, lines on the black borders - all make it extra special. It's those touches that make your cards so unique.
'P' in Wales Steph - had a laugh at your Nissan card with the dogs - sounds inspired!
Another stunner, as usual Sue. Love the double stamping effect, and the ruching. Off to watch the video now - they are even more nice to watch after the football scrum of the CHA
Good morning Due, Another stunner, I am loving the stamped image and what you have done. Oh! LOVE it all as always. Off to have a look at the Video Have a great day
A gorgeous card here again Sue, you just always deliver beauty don´t you. I love this one. But haven´t this one been shown earlier too?? I already have seen it before, which surprised me a little???
Good morning Sue I've just watched the video and as usual you've included some fabulous techniques. What I love about your videos is you make everything achievable for us. Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule for us. I love the card and for me it's Art Deco, I must try more stamping because you've produced some amazing cards using stamps. Good luck for the 23rd Cameeli you must be so pleased to be short listed. Hugs x Heather T
Very ornate card, not exactly to my preference but I can see that others would like it very much. Great techniques for me to have a go. hugs Cheryl xxx
Hi Sue lovely card and the ribbon is beautiful. Managed watch your show yesterday and enjoyed it, great products, a few more on wish list. Good wishes to Cameeli on job next week x
Morning Sue, stunning card n Locke black n white. I use the ruffle technique often. Watching video later. Good luck Cameeli for the 23rd. Have a great day.
Hi Sue, a beautiful card, must try that ruched ribbon technique. Love the black and white with just a hint of gold... Just lovely, brightening up an otherwise cold and grey morning. Great video instructions. Hugs, Rose
Good morning Sue and fellow Wilsonettes, I have to agree that it definately has that art deco feel to it. I can see the garter homage and because of the colours it would not look out of place in that era. It's a lovely card Sue and the fact that the boys like it as well means that it one less we have to try and rack our brains at a mans' card, as they are notoriously difficult to make a card for. Cameeli fingers are still crossed for you as it is wonderful that you have been shortlisted. All your Wilsonette friends have their fingers and everything that we can crossed in making your dream come true. Well if i say my beloved hills have snow on them it will tell you what kind of weather Costa de Glenochil has today. Take care everyone and hopefully see you tomorrow. Love and crafty hugs Norah (Glenochil)
Hi Sue Pretty card today. Love the ruching. The gilding wax is very subtle and effective. Good luck to Cameeli for the 23rd. Off to watch the video before I take my car for big service & mot - think my craft buying will be on hold for a while! Love Alison xxx
Good morning :) Why did I have this strange feeling that you had already shown us this video? Everything was very familiar. Weird feeling. Perhaps I have seen you make it on tv... But I do love the card. And thank you so much for sharing this video with us. I absolutely love every single video, and I'm so grateful that you make them. Love from the Faroes :)
Good morning Sue A really stunning card so elegant crisp and beautiful. I love the centre element set off so well by the ruching which gives the card texture, done with satin would give this card a real look of luxury. I simply love it. Margaret corgi owner
Hello Sue, I love this card and as its not for any particular reason than to say Hello I would hand it on a wall pref one I look at fairly often as its so lovely it brings a smile to my face. X Ros
Lovely card and great video. I have tried the ribbon technique before but it didn't work well, think the red tape is the key and will have another go. That tape is a must have in the craft room. Thanks for sharing.
Hello Sue, What a beautiful card, every layer has some thing interesting on it, I just love it all. Sue, you have been giving us some fantastic cards lately, we are so blessed and grateful for all your inspiration and ideas. Take care, love Brenda xxx
Morning Sue, Sue, you never stopamazing me with your stunning and oh so different works of art. Today's card is no excepton it's a delight in black and white. Love the Art Deco feelto it and the faux pyramage and frilly ribbons is great.
Hi Sue Beautiful card can't wait to sit and watch the video, I love your videos as I learn something new every time Good luck to cameeli for 23rd Best wishes, Pat

Hi Sue, Hi fellow crafters. Just watched the video and it is so interesting and informative. Love the black and white. Love the ribbon technique which I hadn't thought of doing with the seam binding! Will be giving that a try. Another masterpiece!
Was wondering what Maggie ( better without a bow ) will say today as we have two bows!
Hello Sue, Beautiful card, your close up pics really show the detail. I agree it does have an Art Deco feel, love the ruched ribbon and the faux pyramage.. I have the stamps and use them lots. Thank you for the wonderful videos Sue, they must take a lot of time out of your busy life and are soooo appreciated by us Wilsonettes. Camelids good luck for the 23rd, I have everything crossed for you, sorry I spelt your name incorrectly yesterday, did not notice until too late. Steph you are sooo funny,enjoyed the car story, glad you are back on form. Have a great day everyone. Hugs June xxx
Now I´ve been reading through the comments here and I see all is congracting cameli with being shortlæisted, but I have absolutely no clue, what that means, can someone please explain that to me? But seems like it´s on it´s place to congrats with it, so it´s hereby done ha ha ha.
I'm off to watch the video now - loving the look of *most* of this card but you know my views on ribbons and bows ;) - the opposite to almost everyone else on here!
Hi Sheila Lampard. I read you are from Chislehurst, Kent. I am from Orpington in Kent !! I did not realise anyone lived that close to me !! My hubby's family live in Chiselhurst. Hope you have a great crafty day Love Tres x x x
Hi Sue. What a fab video today !! Some very helpful tips and great techniques to. I love the pyramage style topper with that lovely flower stamp. I have your tapestry background folder and it is one of my absolute favourites. It is just perfect for a mans or womans card and it is such a lovely design. I use it all the time. I bought your sea garden background folder a little while ago and that I think that has also become one of my new favourites !! I think your colour combo is great. Black, milk and a touch of gold. The vintage labels 3 dies from Justrite are on my ever growing wish list. I like your ruched technique to with the ribbon. Another great idea to try. Thank you for all your hard work to bring us all these new videos and stunning cards. Have a great crafty day to Sue and everyone Lots of love Tres x x x
Hi Sue a brilliant video as usual & a gorgeous card I love how you have done the rushed ribbon . The stamp is on my wish list & the way you have pyamage it looks stunning love the background & guilding wax yummy. Hugs Lynda Brock xx
Good afternoon Sue and everyone Sorry, I know I'll be in the minority but too much ruched ribbon for me. The rest of the card is lovely but the ruching doesn't do it for me, sorry. Hope you have managed to see your daughter whilst you've been in California. Best wishes. Ang x
Hi Sue, a really beautiful card.. and some fab techniques!! CHA is great, but I don't think you were given enough air time!!! That's my only gripe!!! When you were on though, you were great as ever!! Love Sam xxx
Love today's card. I like the ruching but don't think I will put it on any of my cards. will look at the video later. Good luck for the 23rd Cameeli. Hope you are keeping well Steph as I can't see a comment from you today.
Maryann Laursen - Carmeeli hopes to get "the job of her dreams" and to be shortlisted means that she is one of the candidates to be selected for another (probably final) interview. We all wish her well. Maryann, is that you in the cameo photo??!!
Hello Sue!! It was so nice to finally meet you in person at CHA!! This is another gorgeous card, great video and instructions!! Have a great time with your daughter and a safe flight home. Hugs!!
Hi Sue, Just love this card so much. Don't think I could get the stamp to match up but still 2 watch video and hopefully you explain an easy way. Hugs CraftyJacq X
Hello Mrs W. Hi there beautiful Wilsonettes. High 5 Cameeli Id like to cross my fingers but I cant, they are too short and dont work too good which is WHY I just have to try rouching that ribbon, if nothing else it will make me laugh just watching my stupid fingers trying to keep the ribbon AND and red liner tape in line ! Maybe I should make a comedy video of me attempting to rouche : ) I adore that stamp set and I treated myself to the Peacock Feathers guilding wax today. I also bought a pot of mica powder and its even prettier than everyone says - I just want to blooming well use it, and I will once I've got these 'crazy' driving test cards out the way ! Is it to much to ask to get back to making my 'usual' nice cards and use 'normal' craft goodies, and I HAVE HAVE to start the Valentine cards ready for the market/craft fair ! Mind you, a good night sleep is required as these weird cards are keeping me awake at night - If I see another Micra I may just cry : ) Or ask for therapy, I need proper craft therapy, the ONLY way to get that is to watch our Sue again and again and sooo much beauty to chose from, thank you Sue. Im done. Off for therapy. Love you all. Lancashire Steph xxx
Thanks Sue for the lovely informative Video, they are very much appreciated. I have some strips of assorted coloured metallic rub-ons I have had for a few years, and hope I will get a similar effect to the gilding waxes. Edwina
Hi Sue! Art deco is a mighty fine way to describe this card. It is gorgeous...love it! Thank you for the tips of the stamping, inking and cutting out with the dies. Those flower stamps are stunning. Also, (yet again), the reminder of the ruching of the ribbon. Strangely on Sunday I found this on one of the cards that I saved from a card class that I used to go to. I had forgotten how nice it looked. Thank you Sue for your inspiration and yet another stunning card xx Love Karen xx Wonderful for the one's who were racing for the credit cards to buy the bundles and good luck to you Cameeli on the 23rd Jan! Go girl! xx

Such a stunning card. Who wouldn't be pleased to receive one like this. X x

Good afternoon Sue and everyone
ReplyDeleteSorry, I know I'll be in the minority but too much ruched ribbon for me. The rest of the card is lovely but the ruching doesn't do it for me, sorry.
Hope you have managed to see your daughter whilst you've been in California.
Best wishes.

Beautiful ruching, a really gorgeous card. Pat x
ReplyDeleteHi Sue, a really beautiful card.. and some fab techniques!! CHA is great, but I don't think you were given enough air time!!! That's my only gripe!!! When you were on though, you were great as ever!! Love Sam xxx
ReplyDeletehi Sue
ReplyDeleteLove today's card. I like the ruching but don't think I will put it on any of my cards. will look at the video later. Good luck for the 23rd Cameeli. Hope you are keeping well Steph as I can't see a comment from you today.
Maryann Laursen - Carmeeli hopes to get "the job of her dreams" and to be shortlisted means that she is one of the candidates to be selected for another (probably final) interview. We all wish her well.
ReplyDeleteMaryann, is that you in the cameo photo??!!

ReplyDeleteHello Mrs W. Hi there beautiful Wilsonettes. High 5 Cameeli Id like to cross my fingers but I cant, they are too short and dont work too good which is WHY I just have to try rouching that ribbon, if nothing else it will make me laugh just watching my stupid fingers trying to keep the ribbon AND and red liner tape in line ! Maybe I should make a comedy video of me attempting to rouche : )
ReplyDeleteI adore that stamp set and I treated myself to the Peacock Feathers guilding wax today. I also bought a pot of mica powder and its even prettier than everyone says - I just want to blooming well use it, and I will once I've got these 'crazy' driving test cards out the way ! Is it to much to ask to get back to making my 'usual' nice cards and use 'normal' craft goodies, and I HAVE HAVE to start the Valentine cards ready for the market/craft fair ! Mind you, a good night sleep is required as these weird cards are keeping me awake at night - If I see another Micra I may just cry : ) Or ask for therapy, I need proper craft therapy, the ONLY way to get that is to watch our Sue again and again and sooo much beauty to chose from, thank you Sue.
Im done.
Off for therapy.
Love you all.

Thanks Sue for the lovely informative Video, they are very much appreciated. I have some strips of assorted coloured metallic rub-ons I have had for a few years, and hope I will get a similar effect to the gilding waxes. Edwina
ReplyDeleteHi Sue! Art deco is a mighty fine way to describe this card. It is gorgeous...love it! Thank you for the tips of the stamping, inking and cutting out with the dies. Those flower stamps are stunning. Also, (yet again), the reminder of the ruching of the ribbon. Strangely on Sunday I found this on one of the cards that I saved from a card class that I used to go to. I had forgotten how nice it looked. Thank you Sue for your inspiration and yet another stunning card xx Love Karen xx Wonderful for the one's who were racing for the credit cards to buy the bundles and good luck to you Cameeli on the 23rd Jan! Go girl! xx
