A daily papercrafting blog which features my handmade cards showcasing Creative Expression's products including my own line of cutting dies and embossing folders, Cosmic Shimmer, Ranger and more which use various techniques and ideas to hopefully inspire the creativity in you.
Hello bloggers! You shouldn't miss this video showing several techniques to use on your own projects. It also shows a really lovely way to use your Distress Markers with your rubber stamps.
Finished dimensions are 7" x 8 1/2" in size. All for now, Sue x
Good morning Sue, and all the crafty crew!! Such a pretty card again today, your inspiration has an eternity. I particularly like the watercolor effect.
Pam it was great to see that you had popped by, all I can say when someone you love is in heaven a little bit of heaven is in your home. We are all cradling your heart and hugging you. Cameeli xx
Morning Sue. Thank you the video is great, the card is beautiful. I will try this stamping technique, take care Kitty. Phills shows were good yesterday.

Morning Sue What a fab card love the colours so very pretty, Pam still thinking of ya take care .. crafty hugs to all that need them . bye for now sue .. sarah xx
Morning Sue, enjoyed the video today thank you, some great techniques. I just love the colours on the card. The watercolour effect of the flower is beautiful, I will have to try this technique. ElizabethS x
Hi Sue, It's another beautiful card - where DO you get all your inspiration from? I love the fresh colours, the watercolour technique (will definitely give that a go), the messy bow and last but by no means least - the SPARKLES. Pulchritudinous is what it is. Have a great day. Hugs, Rose
Morning Sue, A fantastic video, I loved watching you heat emboss the white background, and then the gorgeous background stamp with the diamond sprinkles on, and then the fabulous distress markers on the flower stamp, genius !! Lots of love from Patricia xx
Good morning Sue Great video with some fabulous techniques thank you. You are so brave stamping on a ready cut piece of card I always cut after stamping lol. The distress markers have gone up on my 'I need' list there seems so much you can do with them. It's the same with this set of stamps you have used them in so many different ways. I must have a go using the glue on my stamps I'm a bit nervous of spoiling them because I haven't cleaned them quick enough. Tina and Pam it was great seeing you on the blog yesterday sending you both a hug. Hugs x Heather T
GM Sue - love this one - it's a must try! great video as always - I have learnt so much from these and your demos on the TV - more than I realise sometimes! I remember waching C&C whilst ironing about 5-6ish years ago I reckon and you were on demoing the GC with the moroccan dies I think it was then - I thought wow - what eye catching cards - I'd never be able to do anything like that. Well thanks to you I have - Rgs Clare W
Hi Sue Stunning card, hoping for some time later to watch the video as I need to finish hubby's birthday card for tomorrow as I keep changing my mind on design. Happy crafting Love Tina x
Good morning Sue today's card is gorgeous. I will watch the video when I get back home. I am using my phone as a mobile WiFi hotspot and the connection is a bit slow for watching a video. That will be a treat waiting for me. Have a great day. Love Jackie
Great techniques, Sue, especially love the way you stamped the flower. Do enjoy the videos - thank you. Thinking of all our friends who need our support.
Good Morning Sue! I will watch the video later but it looks lovely. I so enjoyed Phill yesterday, he takes a different view, and makes lovely cards..he will be an asset to C/E with his ink around the edges! I really like his stamps too! Take care Love Marg
Hi sue. A lovely card with great techniques. The teal card and sparkles are my fav things to use at the moment as i think they look lovely togeather. Watched phils shows and his stamps are lovely with some great ideas for your cards. Best Wishes Denise x
morning Sue Thank you for allowing me to visit your craft room this morning - the coffee was great and the company fantastic. What a beautiful beautiful gift today. I'm still in love with Teal so your colour scheme just hits the spot. Three techniques for one gift is absolutely great and I have never tried the water colour way but certainly will now. Today's format is beautiful and so simple to do so this is one for my 'must do' file. See you tomorrow. Janet x
Hi Sue, Very pretty and feminine card, will have to have a play with brushing ink from my distress pads onto a stamp as I don't have the markers. Donna Jones
Hi Sue Love today's card. Butterflies are everyone's favourite on cards. I shall have to watch the video later as I'm off to school today. I missed yesterday's post as we were out all day. Then friends came back to our house for a game of bowling on the Wii. So hopefully I had already recorded Phil's show. As long as it says CE then I record. Unless I know in advance that either you or Julia are on the toolshed. Then I record that as well.
Morning Sue, I love the colours on this card and the flower is so pretty. Will watch video soon -and learn -as usual! Thanks Sue-have a good day XxRuth
Excellent video ! 3 great techniques clearly explained, resulting in a very beautiful card. I don't have any of the stamps used or distress markers but as I really want to try the techniques I will just adapt and use similar and hope for the best ! Norah, I was so sorry you didn't meet up with any WOWs but it sounds like it was a disappointing show, I ( wasn't there this time) but normally go on the Thursday and it is really busy, so I wonder what has happened , what did you make of it and what were you tempted to buy? Loving thoughts to those with sadness xo
Oh sue it's a real beauty today my favourite colour you are so clever I need to give you a hug xx Thank you for sharing and all the tips you gave us have a good day love always June xxxxx
Morning Sue, a gorgeous card just like our weather today Hope every one has sunshine. Hope you and your family are coping with your Sad loss Pamm nancyd xx
Morning Sue, Beautiful card, love the water coloured flower, so pretty. Thank you for another great video. Enjoyed Phil's shows yesterday he's a great addition to the team. Lydia X
Hello Sue, Thank you for sharing this delightful card, it is gorgeous, the colouring is amazing. I love my distress markers, my sister got me them for Christmas. Will watch the video later as running out of battery power.. Good to see Pam and Tina pop by yesterday love and hugs to you both and everyone feeling sad. Take care everyone. Hugs June xxx
Good morning Sue Such a beautiful fresh looking card with an abundance of elegance too. Will watch the video later off to my quilting class this morning. Warm wishes and hugs to those who need one. Margaret corgi owner
Good morning Sue and fellow Wilsonettes, What a beautiful card Sue and with the layered white borders to it, it just sets the whole main part off. I wonder if alcohol pens would do the same thing as i have so many other types of pens from Sakura(all the different kinds) to Promarkers and Aquamarkers as well as the old set of Spectrum Noirs, i think i would be homeless if i buy any more pens. Thank you for the wonderful inspiration that you give to us each day Sue. some of them might be out of our comfort zone but we can use the ideas that you have come up with to make it to our requirements. The different things that you try on your cards really have taken our crafting to new levels just because of you. I loved seeing that Pam, Tina and the other lady who lost her partner in life as well(sorry my memory is no where to be seen this past few years and the brain hasn't returned from skivving off when it went on holiday) but you no who you are, were in even for the briefest of time, to see us yesterday. I know that there is nothing we can physically do or say that can take your hurt away, but if we can send the biggest cuddle or hug through cyber space and you feel it, i am glad. The friendship that we build here on the blog are stronger than some of our so called friends that we see, (normally when they want something, as you never see them any other time). I thank the day i ever heard Sue tell us on C&C about her blog, as for me it has been a lifeline to the outside world. Take care everyone from the cold Arctic of the North, hope to see you all tomorrow, Love and crafty hugs, Norah (Glenochil) and my beautiful Ochil Hills
Good morning Sue, beautiful card and so many techniques in the video. Like the idea of spritzing rather than "huffing" on the stamp. Love from Jackie D
Morning Sue, another stunner from your never ending Creations. 3 brilliant techniques to try, will certainly give this one a go. Thank you to everyone who wished me a happy birthday yesterday, I had a lovely day, and vouchers for my local craft shop will be spent very wisely, a few things off my wish list me thinks. Norah sorry you did not have a good day at SECC, I stopped going because there was never anything different and it seemed to be getting smaller and smaller. Take care everyone, Jess xx
Hi Sue Fantastic video and the techniques were brill. Hurray, I have this stamp set and will having a go today. The card is very beautiful. love Jan x x
Morning Sue, This is more like it! Sparkly bits, bows and all. Love the flower effect. off to make a coffee and watch the video. I love these! Hugs Pauline A x
Oohh lovely caed Sue, keep umming and aahing about the distress markers but do think,they would be useful, oh dear need to earn some more money! Got to make a 14th birthday card now for one of the children that has riding lessons with me, oh what to do for her as she has learning disabilities, got to get my thinking hat on, take case everyone it's another lovely day xxx
Love the watercolour technique with the flower stamp. I can't have the distress markers so will try it with a brush and the ink pads. Am not a fan of glitter so might try the background with clear embossing powder instead. So many things to try! Alison
Hi Sue, I am learning water colour painting at classes twice a week, so this very pretty card is right up my street. Will watch your video later today and then try my hand. ValC xx
Morning Sue and lovely Wilsonettes. A very happy card today with the Diamond Sprinkles showing off the lush teal card. I actually bought that stamp with my vouchers, woohoo, at last, something in my stamp box that I can adapt, thanks Sue. SO lovely to see our sad and brave Wilsonettes making a slow return home, its SO hard to find enthusiasm when all you really want to do is make the cruel world go away. I need to be 'heads down' with two more MD cards to make and a pile of Easter cards for market on the 23rd, plus an order of 6 cards, and our daughters wedding invites ! But I have to get my priorities right, and they lie here, with those I love and care for xx so I will bid you farewell, send cuddles to those that need the friendly love I have to give, and wish all a good day whatever your day holds.
Morning Sue, Another stunning card today Sue. I love the water colour idea and it looks so effective and so pretty against the teal and glitter. Great video and always so informative and easy to follow. Many Thanks Sue.
Hi Sue This is fabulous. I just love everything about it. I have watched the video a few times because I think it is stunning. I am off to give it a try myself now. I always get stuck [pardon the pun] with flake a glitter glue. I usually end up with my card peeling away from itself and leaving bits of it all over my stamp!! Not sure what that is all about! I think I must be too heavy handed with it. Anyway Practice makes perfect as they say. Bye for now. SandraP xxx
Hi Sue, It's a long time since I did water-colouring, your flower looks lovely. Still have a stock of the teal card so perhaps I should get crafting...but the sun is shining and beckoning me outside...decisions, decisions. Margaret O xxx
Hello Sue, Another WOW video, each of the technique very clearly demonstrated - just so easy to follow, Thank you. This card is beautiful, I love teal card and both of the stamps you've used are gorgeous. (I need them - both)
Very very pretty card Sue, have not watched demo video yet as been trying for 26 hours to set up a new phone. Dont know if it is me or an age thing when the person on the phone tells you something and you have absolutely no idea whatsoever what they are talking about.
Anyway it is a beautiful day,the sun is shining it's peaceful and calm and I hope it is the same for all of you. For the hurt and sad amongst us I send you some love and hugs. (((((( xx ))))). Tomorrow will be better.
Morning Sue Absolutely beautiful card you could use for many occasions with different words. Love your videos and thank you for the messy bow tutorial!! So elegant with so many different layers. Thanks for sharing! Hugs, Karen
Hello Sue, back again, just watched your fantastic video, so many wonderful techniques. My sister will love this card when she gets in later, teal is her colour and she loves flowers. The background is amazing and the white on white embossing is so subtle and effective. Sue your inspiration is boundless, thank you. Hugs June xxx
Hi Sue & Wilsonettes .Sue another stunning card I love the teal card & the background stamp ( which I have woopy ) I love how you used it with the diamond sparkle I must try that ,love the way the flower turned out with the disstress markers beautiful that stamp set is already on my must have list Sue love & hugs Lynda Brock xx
Pam & Tina sending you both love & hugs my thoughts are with you both xxx
Hi Sue. What a fab video !! I really love video day. Some great techniques today and such a fab card you have made too !! As you know green is my favourite colour and the Teal card in my opinion is just beautiful. It looks great with the white card and that glitter looks lovely, with the Secret Garden stamp, another of my favourites. The watercolour technique with distress markers gives a fab effect. Great messy bow and dazzler too !! Lots of love to you Sue and all the Wilsonettes love tres x x x
stunning card today. Not had time to watch the video yet but i'll watch when im back home (Sh i'm in work and not supposed to be on here!) Hugs to all Sonia x
Hi Sue - a beautiful card and another brilliant explicit video. Love the teal colour and the flower stamp is beautiful - great techniques, thank you so much. Best wishes YvonneMayxx
Good Afternoon Sue. I´m a bit late today. and sadly will have to wait until later this evening to watch what looks like a fantastic technique. Love Val in Spain x
Hi Sue - This particular video is really helpful as I have been wanting to make better use of my distress markers and the card you have produced is lovely. Thank you very much for the idea. Luv M
Hi Sue, Hi Everyone, Wow Sue! What a glorious card! I have actually watched two videos back to back as could not get Wifi to keep going in Spain last week ! Love the medallion card!
Today's card is gorgeous and I actually said Wow aloud when you revealed the stamped flower ! I know I need to get out more Lol ! I have invested in seven pens from Joanna's store ! Tried to choose colours that I would use and that would match my cardstock! I have not used them as yet but I will now! Why would you need 72 pens ? So glad I did not go down that road . I must stop as am getting carried away! This from someone who is not that keen on teal!! Have a lovely day everyone! Love to all who are feeling unwell or sad or both! Love Myra
Fantastic card Sue as was the video. Loved the watercolour flower the colours were amazing, don't have the pens but will have a go with the ink pads. Watched Phill on C&C yesterday, his stamps were lovely, so different! he is a great asset to CE and seems to think very highly of CE and all their products, a match made in heaven.
Hi Sue, a little late today as I took advantage of the good weather to get washing out and do a little gardening. Hope you have had a good day also. Lovely card and great video today. I have most of the components required so will be trying this with a little variation. I don't have Tim's markers but I do have most of the Distress Ink pads so will be trying this technique using them instead. Frances
Hi Sue, Joined your blog for the first time today although I have looked at your new card each day since the start. Love the colour of this card and the watercolour effect. Every card has so many techniques applied and this is no exception-its a delight! Christine xx
Hi Sue. Sorry its late just in from work. Love the card and the colours. Going to have a cup of tea and watch video. Enjoy the rest of your evening.hugs heatherx
Hi Sue, I'm late again, well it's been a hectic day! what with Craft Class etc, well I've watched today's Video twice and I throughly Loved it! thank you so much for sharing all the Tremendous Tips and Inspirations, your head must be swimming with Truly Fantastic Idea's I really wish mine was, I love the Colour and great idea using Sir Tim's pens to create a water colour image. Take Care Sue. Love and hugs from Sam x To all the wonderful Wilsonettes I truly hope you're well!. Hugs from Sam x
Hi Sue, a gorgeous card in my favourite colour. Really enjoyed the video too. Have received the new project book and love the cards you have submitted. Great inspiration as usual. Kind regards Joanne K x
hi, another lovely card, enjoyed video with techniques, will be getting more use from my distress markers and have only been using iced snow, so will use diamond one next time, look forward to card giveaway tomorrow, xx
Helloooo Sue and the Wilsonettes! Fantastic video Sue, you are inspirational. I love the teal and white together, it's stunning. I also love the background sparkle. Thank you so much for the techniques and the simplicity of colouring in a stamp. I do love those ones, as well as the Secret Garden background. Sometimes I think we can be a little bit too frightened to experiment in case we ruin things...... Thank goodness for you Sue, who says "tally ho, up and onwards with a quick march Wilsonettes let's do it!" Wonderful! Jess, every crafters dream is to have crafting vouchers for their birthday. Happy spending! To Pam, Tina and June, sending lots of love and hugs to you xoxoxo
Evening Sue, Love today's card and the video was fantastic showing all the techniques you used, thanks Sue ! I'm lucky to have both stamps you've used so will be trying this one out hopefully with better results than I had at Christmas when tried your angel card with the glue on the stamp and then guilding it , put too much glue on and got into a right old mess, so now I can see what I did wrong!! Thanks again Sue for all the videos really enjoy them. Hugs Jean D Sending hugs to everyone who needs an extra cuddle today xx
HI SUE CRACKING CARD. I LEARNT A NEW IDEA. PUT THE INK ROUND THE EDGE OF YOUR SPELLBINDER DIE. MAKE SURE ITS AN INK THAT DOES NOT DRY QUICK (BUT U COULD SPITZ IT LIGHTLY). PUT YOUR CARD IN THE DIE AND INTO THE CUTTING MACHINE. PUT THROUGH YOUR DIE CUTTING MACHINE. WHEN YOU REMOVE FROM THE DIE YOU WILL FIND YOU HAVE A PERFECT WATERCOLOUR FRAME ON IT. YOU DONT HAVE TO BOTHER TO MAT AND LAYER. WOULD LOOK PERFECT ON TODAYS CARD. CRACKING COLOUR. LOVE THE MESSY BOWS I DO THEM ALL THE TIME HEHE BORN AGAIN SPELLBINDER NADINE HUG XXX
Hi ya Sue Well todays card and video are great Alcove how you have put this card together it looks absolutely brill my friend I hope you are well and have take a rest from your busy schedual You take care Sue Theresa x
Really pretty card. I've got the video gremlins so I haven't been able to watch the video yet - hopefully they will have sorted themselves out by tomorrow.
Gorgeous card and love the background techniques, stunning way to present that lovely watercolour. Thanks so much for the tutorial, going off to play now.
Good evening Sue This card is so homely - I think the subtle colouring and use of kraft card gives a comforting image. I love the hessian bow and flower, such a beautiful addition. All - in - all a stunning creation. Hugs Sharon Kirkwood x

Morning Sue, another stunner from your never ending Creations. 3 brilliant techniques to try, will certainly give this one a go. Thank you to everyone who wished me a happy birthday yesterday, I had a lovely day, and vouchers for my local craft shop will be spent very wisely, a few things off my wish list me thinks. Norah sorry you did not have a good day at SECC, I stopped going because there was never anything different and it seemed to be getting smaller and smaller. Take care everyone, Jess xx
Hi Sue
Fantastic video and the techniques were brill. Hurray, I have this stamp set and will having a go today. The card is very beautiful.
love Jan x x
Beautiful image, beautiful card Sue, but will have to watch your video later, as I am going out this morning.
Hi Sue, another beautiful card, loving teal at the moment treated myself to peacock feathers distress ink. Have a great day Elaine x
Great looking card...I love the dark teal color that you used against the white it really pop off the color just right.
Well done Sue
My favourite colour today! Yippee! A beautiful card and love the flower. Another stunner. Hugs, Carol S.xx
Morning Sue, This is more like it! Sparkly bits, bows and all. Love the flower effect. off to make a coffee and watch the video. I love these! Hugs Pauline A x
OMG these techniques are fab. Love the stamps and the teal is gorgeous. Great video as always. Hugs Theresa x
Oohh lovely caed Sue, keep umming and aahing about the distress markers but do think,they would be useful, oh dear need to earn some more money! Got to make a 14th birthday card now for one of the children that has riding lessons with me, oh what to do for her as she has learning disabilities, got to get my thinking hat on, take case everyone it's another lovely day xxx
Love the watercolour technique with the flower stamp. I can't have the distress markers so will try it with a brush and the ink pads. Am not a fan of glitter so might try the background with clear embossing powder instead. So many things to try!

Gorgeous Card Sue!
I love the watercolour effect on the flower, it's so pretty. Thank you again for another great video full of inspiration and techniques.
Happy Crafting!!! :) X X
such a beautiful card Sue - that pop of colour is just stunning xx
Hi Sue, I am learning water colour painting at classes twice a week, so this very pretty card is right up my street. Will watch your video later today and then try my hand.

Morning Sue and lovely Wilsonettes. A very happy card today with the Diamond Sprinkles showing off the lush teal card.
I actually bought that stamp with my vouchers, woohoo, at last, something in my stamp box that I can adapt, thanks Sue.
SO lovely to see our sad and brave Wilsonettes making a slow return home, its SO hard to find enthusiasm when all you really want to do is make the cruel world go away.
I need to be 'heads down' with two more MD cards to make and a pile of Easter cards for market on the 23rd, plus an order of 6 cards, and our daughters wedding invites ! But I have to get my priorities right, and they lie here, with those I love and care for xx
so I will bid you farewell, send cuddles to those that need the friendly love I have to give, and wish all a good day whatever your day holds.
Much love.

Thank you so much.

Hi Sue
This is fabulous. I just love everything about it. I have watched the video a few times because I think it is stunning. I am off to give it a try myself now. I always get stuck [pardon the pun] with flake a glitter glue. I usually end up with my card peeling away from itself and leaving bits of it all over my stamp!! Not sure what that is all about! I think I must be too heavy handed with it. Anyway Practice makes perfect as they say.
Bye for now.

Really lovely Sue. Love the sparkle. Xx
Love it Sue, I really need to get the distress markers, they are on top of my wish list.
Hugs Michelle xxxx
Really simple pretty card - love it! Thanks Susan x
Morning Sue,
I have just watched you video and I love todays card...Its fabulous!!
Carol x
Hi Sue,
It's a long time since I did water-colouring, your flower looks lovely.
Still have a stock of the teal card so perhaps I should get crafting...but the sun is shining and beckoning me outside...decisions, decisions.

Hello Sue,
Another WOW video, each of the technique very clearly demonstrated - just so easy to follow, Thank you.
This card is beautiful, I love teal card and both of the stamps you've used are gorgeous. (I need them - both)
Take care, love Brenda xxx
Very very pretty card Sue, have not watched demo video yet as been trying for 26 hours to set up a new phone. Dont know if it is me or an age thing when the person on the phone tells you something and you have absolutely no idea whatsoever
what they are talking about.
Anyway it is a beautiful day,the sun is shining it's peaceful and calm and I hope it is the same for all of you. For the hurt and sad amongst us I send you some love and hugs. (((((( xx ))))). Tomorrow will be better.

Hello Sue, back again, just watched your fantastic video, so many wonderful techniques. My sister will love this card when she gets in later, teal is her colour and she loves flowers.

Hi Sue. What a fab video !! I really love video day. Some great techniques today and such a fab card you have made too !! As you know green is my favourite colour and the Teal card in my opinion is just beautiful. It looks great with the white card and that glitter looks lovely, with the Secret Garden stamp, another of my favourites. The watercolour technique with distress markers gives a fab effect. Great messy bow and dazzler too !!
Lots of love to you Sue and all the Wilsonettes love tres x x x

Hi Sue, totally love this card... it's so pretty. Hugs Sam xxx
Hi Sue,
Hi Everyone,
Wow Sue! What a glorious card! I have actually watched two videos back to back as could not get Wifi to keep going in Spain last week ! Love the medallion card!
Today's card is gorgeous and I actually said Wow aloud when you revealed the stamped flower ! I know I need to get out more Lol ! I have invested in seven pens from Joanna's store ! Tried to choose colours that I would use and that would match my cardstock! I have not used them as yet but I will now!
Why would you need 72 pens ? So glad I did not go down that road . I must stop as am getting carried away! This from someone who is not that keen on teal!!
Have a lovely day everyone! Love to all who are feeling unwell or sad or both!
Love Myra
I'm not really a blue-y fan but this is a lovey card. Love all the techniques.
Gorgeous card Sue - love the teal. Great video, thank you. Pat x
Hi sue. Not had time yet to watch the video looking forward to it though. Lovely card beautiful flower stamp

Fantastic card Sue as was the video. Loved the watercolour flower the colours were amazing, don't have the pens but will have a go with the ink pads.
Watched Phill on C&C yesterday, his stamps were lovely, so different! he is a great asset to CE and seems to think very highly of CE and all their products, a match made in heaven.
Hello Sue. Wonderful card and great video. So happy to have learnt the watercolour technique. Thank you. xx Maggie (what a messy bow)

Hi Sue. This card is beautiful, love the stamp and using it for a background as well is a great idea. JB xxxx
Hi Sue, a little late today as I took advantage of the good weather to get washing out and do a little gardening. Hope you have had a good day also.
Lovely card and great video today. I have most of the components required so will be trying this with a little variation. I don't have Tim's markers but I do have most of the Distress Ink pads so will be trying this technique using them instead.
Frances

What a lovely card today Sue, well done!!
Craftihappiness to you al, love from Pearl
Helloooo Sue and the Wilsonettes! Fantastic video Sue, you are inspirational. I love the teal and white together, it's stunning. I also love the background sparkle. Thank you so much for the techniques and the simplicity of colouring in a stamp. I do love those ones, as well as the Secret Garden background. Sometimes I think we can be a little bit too frightened to experiment in case we ruin things...... Thank goodness for you Sue, who says "tally ho, up and onwards with a quick march Wilsonettes let's do it!" Wonderful! Jess, every crafters dream is to have crafting vouchers for their birthday. Happy spending! To Pam, Tina and June, sending lots of love and hugs to you xoxoxo
Evening Sue,
Love today's card and the video was fantastic showing all the techniques you used, thanks Sue ! I'm lucky to have both stamps you've used so will be trying this one out hopefully with better results than I had at Christmas when tried your angel card with the glue on the stamp and then guilding it , put too much glue on and got into a right old mess, so now I can see what I did wrong!!
Thanks again Sue for all the videos really enjoy them.
Hugs
Jean D
Sending hugs to everyone who needs an extra cuddle today xx

Hi Sue
Really pretty colours on this card and I do like the flower image.
June x
The watercolour effect is so lovely. Good video today, most enjoyable.
HI SUE
CRACKING CARD. I LEARNT A NEW IDEA. PUT THE INK ROUND THE EDGE OF YOUR SPELLBINDER DIE. MAKE SURE ITS AN INK THAT DOES NOT DRY QUICK (BUT U COULD SPITZ IT LIGHTLY). PUT YOUR CARD IN THE DIE AND INTO THE CUTTING MACHINE.
PUT THROUGH YOUR DIE CUTTING MACHINE. WHEN YOU REMOVE FROM THE DIE YOU WILL FIND YOU HAVE A PERFECT WATERCOLOUR FRAME ON IT. YOU DONT HAVE TO BOTHER TO MAT AND LAYER. WOULD LOOK PERFECT ON TODAYS CARD.
CRACKING COLOUR. LOVE THE MESSY BOWS I DO THEM ALL THE TIME HEHE
BORN AGAIN SPELLBINDER

This card is so homely - I think the subtle colouring and use of kraft card gives a comforting image. I love the hessian bow and flower, such a beautiful addition. All - in - all a stunning creation.
