Wednesday Weekly Card Giveaway

Hi bloggers!  I think I have survived the frenzied multiple blog postings  for the past five days! I hope you have too!   I have to say that the response was absolutely phenomenal and far exceeded my expectations! There were a record number of comments left on the very first post, well over 500!   I am truly humbled by all your gracious comments and emails.  I saw so many new names too, I hope that we will continue to see all the new faces around the blog too!   It has been a real labour of love for me for the past year and there were days where I was beginning to feel like it was never going to happen!  I am over the moon to hear such wonderful comments, thank you so much!

The giveaway card for today is the one that I demoed at the CHA live show in January.  I hate to ask you again, but you need to leave a comment to be in the drawing for the card too.  I used the Heartfelt Creations floral stamp called Majestic Morning Bouquet and covered a piece of milk card with it stamped in black.  Once stamped, I covered the entire piece with a sticky adhesive sheet and added diamond Sprinkles to it for a bit of glitz and glam.  I cut two of the Scalloped Borders Two in black and backed them with milk card and added them vertically to either side of the card.  I cut three of the Raindrops On Roses dies in milk card so I was able to use them as a decorative background accent behind my sentiment.  The sentiment was stamped and cut out with the Fancy Tags Two die and inked with Antique Linen.  I seated it upon a Labels 28 die cut in black that I also stamped with the same flower as the background for a bit of detail.  I cut a faux nestie in milk for it and attached my decorative pieces to that to complete the focal element.  I stamped the Majestic Blooms flower stamp and cut it out with the matching die and put together several flowers.  I added a few flowers around the card and seated one on a messy bow and some jute twine.  I finished the card with a pierced double mat layer in milk card and added some flatback pearls as final accents.  Finished dimensions are 7 1/4" x 9 1/4" in size.
Just a quick note to let you know that I am heading back home today (will be flying as this goes live, in fact!) but I am hoping to get all the drawings done and posted for the new die releases on Friday.  The winner of this card will be posted on Saturday and the comment game winners on Sunday so don't forget to check to see if your name has been picked!  All for now, Sue x

Hello Sue, hope you have had a smooth journey home, sorry about the weather though, I hope you have your thermals!
Today's card is stunning, I love the colour combination and a great mix of dies.
You really have made my fingers 'itch' to get back into that craft room and blow the cobwebs away, although with a little glitter they would look very pretty!
I have discovered your video tutorials, I love them, it's a fantastic idea.
I can't believe how much the blog has grown, you are so inspiring Sue.
I look forward to tomorrow's blog Sue, thanks for everything.
Huge hugs
Sandra xx

Dear Sue,

Hope your flight went ok and you survived any turbulence!

This is such a beautiful and fabulous black, milk and white card, monochrome never looked so wonderful !

I love the chic look of the dies all layered, I really must strive to do more of it myself.

Have a wonderful time back home.

Sorry I've not been around much to leave posts, Im still not too good unfortunately however I've been enjoying receiving your gifts of wonderful cards by email each day.

Best wishes from Katie-Louise sweetlove

Hi Sue,
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I got the dies, the stamps are on the way and I forgot to record your demo! It helps to see the different uses, and my mind was blank when the dies arrived.
A beautiful card as usual.
Congratulations on your new range, they are amazing.
I am still waiting for an art deco embossing folder tho' lols.

Tina said...

Hi Sue


stunning, beautiful and very elegant.

I echo all the other ladies with a big Thank you for all hard work and stunning creations. I'm so pleased you persevered, even though at times I expect you were pulling your hair out. I think the proof is in the the product, and the shops have sold out time and time again. Now hopefully you can breathe easier, but knowing you , you are probably on to your next venture. Again, a big Thank you.

Hi Steph, I hope you are not still hurting too much today, I thought about you yesterday after your strenuous day out on Monday. I hope you got everything you needed for your invitations.

Hi Margaret.I agree, its no fun running around outdide freezing cold in our jim jam's, but it made me chuckle.

Kind regards :-)

Hi Sue,
Another lovely card,I love how you use the bracket borders. I will have to get some now that I see how they are used. I have lots of Spellibinders dies but never got any of these.I am new to your blog as I said earlier, and I was wondering what is Milk card , is that a cream color,as I have not seen that before and have been card making for years. Safe trip and look forward to more of your lovely cards.

CathyinMN said...

Such a gorgeous card! I really enjoyed seeing the cards you made with your new die sets.

Mac Mable said...

Oh Sue this is a pretty one. Love the colour way of the card and all your techniques. Loved this past 5 days of frenzied activity on your blog. Save journey back and thank you for all your hard work x

Jan Epps said...

Hi Sue

A lovely 'fresh' looking card. Your new dies are great. Would it be possible to make the same design dies but much smaller? The designs are really nice but a little large to go on my cards. I tend to make the smaller sizes as the 8" x 8" are so expensive to post.

Hope I am lucky.

Jan

Gorgeous card. So glad you got a good response as the dies are fantastic x

Absolutely stunning! Sue, you are a true inspiration. Cant wait to try out the new dies.

Safe landing! Karen

Glenharon said...

Good afternoon Sue and fellow Wilsonettes,
Well i first started this morning at comment 72 so slow is not the word today, i think even the tortoise would be beat me.
Todays card is going to take a few looks Sue for me to see all the different components of it. At first glance i thought it looked like white marble with a grey vein running through it and there is just so much to see.
Him up above has been out with his flour sellar and lost the top of it, being heavy handed. But as long as it stays up there it doesn't cause anyone any harm.
Steph i think you took my body around the shops with you yesterday as it's telling on me today. I take it you didn't find the new body , legs etc. when you were out and about. You know i sometimes think it would be less painful considering other more drastic options but then you get phantom pain, and crikey its bad enough the now.
To June who turns 65 today, i hope you have a lovely birthday. Ignore what the weather is like outside but listens to the hearts of your loved ones and their birthday wishes. A card with the right words can say a thousand things very simply, so i hope you have a great day.
Going to go and see you all tomorrow hopefully, the eyes are shutting only to open with the next spasm so excuse me girls,
Love and crafty hugs
Norah (Glenochil)

Hi sue and fellow blog followers

Such a lovely card today I need those raindrop and roses dies. Missed out on the CHA launch no craft pennies that week. I still have it recorded so I'm going to put my pjs on make a coffee and rewatch it. I didn't see much CHA as a presenter ( I won't name him) was doing my head in being very very hyper.

I was stalking the postman today waiting for my joanna sheen order to arrive and get my hands on my new dies but I think I'm pushing it a bit as I only order on Monday.
Had grandchildren over yesterday and thought my fibro was playing up because I did too much but no I've got a killer cold coming on so even if they do turn up before weekend I don't think I'm going to be up to any crafting.

I wish I could see picture of what all of you were making with your dies we need some sort of group we can all post too. Can we do so etching on pin interest ? I'm not sure how it works.

All the best Pauline (freedom99)

lorraine (classylady) said...

Hi Sue welcome back to a very wet (in some places)Great Britain, so sorry for the people who are flooded, and a very cold icy and snowy Scotland.

Love this card today Sue the Majestic flowers are gorgeous as are the stick pins, more things to go on the shopping list.
Get some rest and look forward to seeing what comes next

fluffycat said...

Hi Sue, I hope you had an uneventful flight home and didn't take one look at the weather and turn round and go back again!
I am almost ashamed to say that although I like today's card it is a little busy for my taste.
I would like to thank you again for the amazing last few days and all the hard work you put in to make it possible. I have ordered most of the Italian collection from JS but was too late to get the Classic Rose (boo hoo) so got the gorgeous Embroidered Striplet instead.
The Ochils are indeed mostly white today and there is more forecast so stay safe and warm everyone.

Hello Sue. I have already had a play with a set of my new dies and this will be a staple of many of my cards. Easy to cut and emboss and easy release from the die. Thank you for giving us such good quality - but then, what would we expect from our Queen of Craft? This is another great card but I seem to have run out of superlatives. xx Maggie (better without a bow)

Sue you've certainly been exceptionally busy and it's very much appreciated, this card is beautiful and packed with great details.x

Hi Sue, loved the raindrops on roses dies and stamps when you demoed them on tv, this card is truly stunning. Managed to get a set of your filigree bow dies ordered and cant wait for them to arrive, hopefully they will be here soon so I can get creating with them. Thanks once again for all your inspiration.

lilysmum said...

Good evening Sue, sorry to be writing late, have had a day crafting with a good friend-the one whose G.C I managed to break. Well, strike me if karma didn't happen-she only went and got my plates and die stuck-I think that's one all don't you?
Anyway, back to your crafting; today's card is another stunner, I have the edge dies so welcome any ideas on best ways to use them. You always manage such beautiful colour combinations and composition I wonder, do you go as the mood takes or do you sketch your ideas first?
I hope the journey home didn't get hampered by the weather too much and everyone arrived safely.
hugs, Theresa

Annie said...

Phew! I feel like I've been in a whirlwind this week with your utterly stunning cards and dies. You are truly amazing, Sue!! You must be so pleased that we love them so much. You must have put soooo much work and love into designing them and our appreciation is enormous as all the posts show. Hope you have a safe journey and that the weather conditions are ok for you, not sure where you live but my heart goes out to any of you who are flooded. We have the Thames creeping towards us but so far so good. Hugs Annie

Welcome home Sue x What you have achieved during the past year & the results you have shown us over the past 5 days is nothing but, truly awe inspiring. From the germination of your tiny seed of an idea you have worked so hard to to bring that seed to fruition. l so wish l had not suffered so much with spasms during this special time of yours as l only managed to use my hand once to leave a short comments to say what l thought (+ a chance to win a beautiful die) my husband was too busy during the day but would scroll through at night for me, to show me what you had put up that day.
So thank you Sue for all your hard work, we love & thank you what you do for us on a daily basis. Yet now on top of this you've gone through a tough year to design & get to the manufacturing stage of these beautiful dies. So please, accept my heartfelt thanks to you on behalf of us all for all you've done.

The trouble with this commenting is that there are not enough words to describe your creative talent and I just feel so repetitive all the time - especially when 300 others have posted first! Hope you have a well deserved break with your mum. x

Another stunning card Sue, I've just received the raindrops on roses dies so may be popping back for some inspiration. Love the colours of this card too, so elegant.

Hope your journey home goes smoothly.
