Hello crafters! I love this technique and use it quite often. It's triple stamping and if you haven't tried it, hopefully I will inspire you to give it a go. For today's card, I used the flower from the
Stitched Flowers by Justrite. I selected three different colours of cards for my three panels. I have used
milk card for the smallest one, then taupe card, then
chestnut card for the largest back panel. I secure them into place with a piece of sticky tape between them, then stamped all over with my stamp inked with
Black Archival. You won't be able to get the ink to go across the edges of the card without leaving a small void, but don't worry, it doesn't matter. After you are finished stamping, carefully take the layers apart and cut black mat layers for each one. This will cover the gap in the stamping and set each panel off nicely. Reassemble them adding foam mounting tape between the layers for dimension. I simply used an
Antique Linen distress marker to colour the edges of the flowers, keeping it very simple and in the same neutral colour tones. I can easily imagine this done on white card and coloured with some pretty vibrant colours too. For the centre focal element, I stamped the tag from the set in black and cut it out with the matching die. I inked it with
Antique Linen before removing it from the die. I stamped it again, added the sentiment, thee cut it out with the smaller die in the set and mounted it on top with foam for dimension. I stamped a single flower, coloured it and cut it out by hand. I added a button to the middle with some
Bakers Twine and added it to the corner of the top panel. I finished the card with a double mat of milk card and added a pierced edge to the upper mat. Finished dimensions are 8" x 8 1/4" in size.
Now for the winner of the Wednesday card giveaway. This week's winner is:
Carole Zorzo!!!

Another lovely card, and a little different this time - I must make my version of this. Perhaps I will attempt this today as the weather looks poor so we can't get out in the garden

Morning Sue.
Thank you lovely card I remember you demonstrated this technique on one of your shows, it is brilliant . congratulations to carole. Have a good weekend all take care Kitty
Good morning Sue and everyone. Just checked back on yesterday's posts and mine appears to have disappeared into cyberspace, but I loved everything about the card Sue, especially the half embossing. The triple stamping looks great, yet another Sue Wilson technique that I must have a try at.
Steph have a wonderful time in York, hope the weather inland is better than here on the coast. Hugs to all in pain.

Love this technique and will give this a try for sure. Thank you for sharing x
Really lovely effect, and those stamps are brilliant, great card. Congratulations to Carole xx
What an intriguing technique. It really is eye-catching and I think will be good for masculine cards too with a suitable stamp.
Lovely card-great idea for a male card using different stamps.
Michele.
Hi Sue and Wilsonettes. Just a quick visit to say I love it. Great idea to use masculine stamps too for those awkward males !
Well done to Carol, congrats. Tina hope the wedding blessing goes ok and I shall be thinking of you hon. To those that need hugs - I have plenty.
Love you.
Lancashire Steph xx
Wow! Love the effect that color gets darker to the edges. Fabulous creation!
Hugs,

This is another one I must try. Great technique and agree would also look good in bright colours too. Wet here today so craft room here I come!!
Lovely card, great background and techniques used. Complimentary colour and love the tamps. xxxx
Really great cart Sue, I also like this technique.
Love this one - it's a little bit different. Xxxxx
GM Sue - love this - I have never tried the triple stamping technique but I will. Wondered if I could ask you and Wilsonettes advice on something - A4 card storage – what’s the best way to store this? I have built a collection of various colours and types (plain and patterned) and it’s on a shelf of a bookcase, most in its original packaging comprising of cardboard boxes and clear plastic wrap but am finding I dont really know what I’ve got! Was thinking of getting it out of the packaging and filing it flat in a drawer unit in colours – plains together and patterns together within each drawer/colour. I am hoping this would make it more accessible and I could easily see what I have – but it’s alot of effort to sort if it doesn’t! Hence advice please would be welcomed. How do you store yours I wonder?..
Bit of a soggy start here to the Bank Holiday but it should get better later they say - so ironing calls yet again - it just never ends! Happy BH all

Hi. Fab card again today. Must try this technique - love it. Have a great day. Hugs to all xxx
Ohhh, really like this card. Great for a man and could use other colours that are suitable for male cards. The stamp is now on my wish list. Have a great week end everyone. Linda.
Hi Sue
A very clever card. I love the way you have used mats to disguise the gaps in the stamping and the way you have graduated the colours with the layers. Fabulous. Thank you for sharing. Congratulations to Carole, lucky lady!
Hugs to all.
Good morning Sue,
Love, love, love this beautiful card. I have not tried this technique as yet but will be having a go later today.
Thank you for the inspiration.

In Edinburgh for the weekend so will go to a Papercraft show on at Ingleston tomorrow, hope to find some interesting goodies!
Hugs to all xo
Hi Sue
Lovely card I really like this technique you have used and the clever little black matt to edge it must give this a try.
Bit dull here today fingers x'd it may brighten up later.
Hugs Annx without an "e"
Good morning Sue, and everyone.
A gorgeous card again today and I love the triple stamping, and the colours!! Must give this a go. Congratulations to Carole.
Wishing you and all your Wilsonettes a happy,healthy, and stress free day! Love and hugs. Hilary xxxx
Good morning Sue
Superb card I have tried this technique and it turned out brilliantly. I thought it would be hard but it wasn't so thanks for the idea.
Congratulations to Carole.
Clare W I went to an office supplies shop and bought some sets of drawers. Sorted out all my cards into colours etc it took me a long time but it's so worth it. I have labels on the front of the drawers so when I need a particular colour I can get it easily. The only thing is I've had to add some more drawers because there are more colours coming out that I don't have but need. We'll blame Sue for that lol
Hugs x
Heather T
I love this technique and must give it a go as it is so effective. Thanks for the reminder of how to do it, great card x
Hi Sue,
Lovely card, not tried triple stamping before but will be having a try later, this would be great for a man using male themed stamps.
Congratulations to Carole.

Hi Sue,
Love this technique although not so keen on the colours used, but would do this in other colours. Like the small matt you've used to disguise the void.
Congrats to Carole - you lucky thing. Steph have a great time in York - one of my favourite cities. Tina hope all goes well - thinking of you. Love and hugs to everyone especially Pam, Gail,Tina,Norah,Steph,Lindsay and Lynne and to all fur babies out there. Love Alison xx
Hi Sue,
Love that technique and will try it, keep forgetting about it - God knows why because it is so very versatile......
What a cute bow - nearly missed it!
Have a great weekend.
Hugs, Rose
Lovely card, tried to do this but did not look good.
Best Wishes Lilian
Morning Sue, lovely card and technique. Love that flower stamp. I do have this set, must get down to some crafting and use them! Congratulations to Carole on winning your lovely card. Love Jean xxx
Hi Sue. I love your triple stamped cards and this one is another beauty : ) Love the subtle colours, I think the stamps are great and work so well when making this type of card. I hope you are having some decent weather and that you are not working too hard Sue : )
Pam, sending your daily hug : )
Hugs for all that need one including Tres, glad you are on the mend, and Julie laz, sorry to hear that your eyes are so bad, don't take any chances with them will you. Get the Doc to check them won't you.
Dawn Searle, thanks for telling us about the royal racing pigeons, so interesting to hear and also I love what other interests the Wilsonettes have : )
Congratulations to Carole, you will love your card : )
Sandra who lives in Carterton. Do you work in a shop etc in Witney as I'm sure I recognise your face? (I live in Southmoor)
Clare W, I don't have very much card and paper but what I do have I store in a small filing cabinet, each weight and colour range in a file. It works for me, at the moment.
Have a good long weekend everyone.
Take care.
morning Sue
Today's gift is one that appears to have taken hours and hours to do but really is simple and a fantastic gift when you need one quickly.
I love the colours and will definitely be producing one in naturals and then perhaps pastels.
The weather here not looking too good but fingers crossed and best foot forward for a busy day ahead.
Take care everyone and see you tomorrow.
Janet x
Morning Sue - I will be honest and say his is not my favourite card (each to their own) but I did see you do this technique before and I bought that die so I really must try and attempt to recreate something vaguely similar.
It is teeming with rain at the moment and my freshly groomed dog wants his morning walk. I'm not keen as we are going to a local dog show on Monday and I want him to look his best (always does in my eyes). Hope everyone has a good BH weekend and hugs and love to all. Helen xx
Hi Sue beautiful card today and a great technique I must give it a go. Hope you have a great weekend with your mum. Love Diane G xxxx
Clare fantastic idea to sort your card before it gets ruined. I store mine in A4 craft boxes which I have picked up at craft shows but I am sure you can get them on line. If you are looking for a set of draws that will last you a long time ikea do a lovely A4 size tall draw set that holds loads. I think it's called Alex . Reasonably priced and in cream so it looks good too. I hope this helps Diane x
Hi Sue
I like the card but as I do not stamp would have to find something to substitute the stamping, the idea and colours would make an ideal male card.
Congratulations to Carole on winning the card lucky lady
Love and hugs to all
Happy crafting to all the Wilsonettes
Love Tina x
Hi Sue great technique to produce a lovely card - must have a go at this
Denise X
I'm playing in my craft room today and I think this is just the thing to start on. Great technique Sue, thanks for sharing.
Hi Sue,
Love this technique it looks really good. I don't have the stamp but I'm sure I could find another one to give it a go.
Beverley W
Good morning Sue and everyone.
Im sure I saw you demo this technique previously on TV and its very effective. Super card that I'll try in brighter colours methinks.
Clare W, I hadn't room for more drawers so I use A4 clear plastic hinged boxes from a 99p shop and larger ones from The Range. Hope that helps.
Have a great day.
Ang x
Morning Sue,
A real wet start here today, I'm meeting up with friends off to see some crafting demos at a local crafting shop.
I like your card very much, it's not a technique I've used before, but thinking I will give it a go.
Gail C x
I love this card very much and will def have a go.
Clare W - I store most of my card in the magazine storage boxes that sit side by side, depending on the height of the bookcase shelves they would fit neatly in a row.
Morning Sue, I saw you do this sort of card and was very impressed. It is on my list of ones to try. It is so clever the way it draws the eye and makes you think it is just one image.
ClareW I store my card in A4 plastic boxes, can be bought on line. I label the end of the box with details, colour, weight etc. and then stack them on my shelf .
Love Rosemarie xx
Really clever technique Sue. As always, I admire your perfect layering:) xx Annie P
Lovely card Sue ...have a lovely weekend ..x
Hi Sue sorry this just dosnt do it for me.
Marion H
Wow Sue can't remember seeing this technique before, it really is something I must try, beautiful card as always
Hi Sue - I love the look of this card. I have tried this technique once but didn't get a very good result. After seeing today's card though I think I will try it again. Have a lovely weekend. Best wishes

Love this card Sue.
I tried this technique after I saw you demo it on tv and thought how clever it was.

Hi Sue, Lovely card Sue different. love Jean Z xx
Brilliant technique Sue and the card is really lovely. I wouldn't have thought of using 3 different colours of card in this way.
Hi Sue, another great card, love this technique although I have not tried it yet. Well done on winning the card Carole. Have a great weekend everyone, although it looks a bit wet. Bx
Hi Sue
What a great card to do I think I must have a go at this myself so yes you have inspired me to have a go the colour combos you could do with it would be amazing to .. hugs to all who needs one take care have a great weekend .. sarah xx
Love the idea of this card, but like some of the others, not the colours. Can see this idea, using different coloured papers!!
Congrats to Carole, too!!
Doreen x
What a lovely sentiment,and oh how true. Have never tried triple stamping but it looks really effective. Must have a go. A very different card. Xx

Omg I am going to have to try this stamping technique, but instead of colouring in I will emboss them to give dimension and coloured card,
Not sure on your colour choice but I bet it looks lovely in true life lol
Dont you ever get crafters block?
Enjoy the bank holiday everyone not raining here and its quite warm (not sunny) so that means one thing for me gardening lol

Good morning Sue,
It's a very clever technique and a pretty card. I remember seeing you do this before but I haven't tried it yet. Today's the day though!
Congratulations to Carole, you are Zozo lucky!
I always come back to this site last thing at night to read what everyone has written and feel as though I'm getting to know you all, although I can't remember all the names without making a note of them - it's an age thing!! Have a good dry day everyone and don't work too hard Sue, hope your mum is wellxx
Lovely card, not tried this technique , so will give it a go thank for fab daily inspiration angxx
Morning Sue,
I love going away but it's always good to be back...washer is on so now I can relax and read your blog.
Wonderful card today, I love the technique and yhe effect it gives so I must definitely give it a go.
Congratulations to Carole.
Love Sheila xx
Lovely card. Love the triple stamping but the graduated card colours make it for me.
Claire W. - like Sue from Wiltshire I use magazine files but I put them on a shelf laying down on their spines. I find I can see the colours more easily and it's easier to riffle through them to find what I want.
Decidedly soggy in Suffolk today so may 'have to' do some crafting.
Alison
Good Morning Sue. Oh how clever, must have a go at this one.
Love Val in Spain x
Congrats to Carole.

Craftihappines to all, love from Pearl.
Morning Sue and all the Wilsonettes like the card today not very good at stamping but might give this one a try. I have an older stamp that looks a lot like this one so I think it will be fine to give this technique a go. Weather not so good here today ( Larkhall in Scotland not far from Glasgow) overcast and looking very much as if it will rain. Hugs to all who need them today have a great weekend. Sophy n Gran
Hello Sue. This is just the card for me. I've said that quite a lot lately but it really really is. Just a little bit of twine to set off the flower and that's fine. A great reminder of a great technique so many thanks as always. Hope you are having better weather than us in our poor corner of East Anglia. It's tipping it down and even the roses have had enough. xx Maggie (better with just a little bow)
Fabulous card love the sentiment xx hazel
Belinda Raven said..
Hi Sue, i find today's card very attractive. I think triple stamping is great - so useful, especially for male cards. So looking forward to some crafting this bank holiday weekend!
Hugs, Belinda. X
Hi Sue, a lovely card. Thanks for another new technique for me to try.
Hi Sue, I remember this technique from one of your shows and promised myself to try it. I haven't yet, but maybe this is the kick I need so if I get some quiet time this afternoon I definitely will give it a go.
Clare W - the bulk of my paper & card is stored in Really Useful Box towers but I also have several of the A4 fold flat boxes (the sort that 'pop' together) that you can get from shops like B & M (I think that is Wilkinsons in England) for my specialist card and these stack quite neatly on my shelves.
Congratulations to Carole on winning the Wednesday wonder.
Dry here in Central Scotland at the moment but windy and overcast so I am expecting rain before too long.
Frances
Morning Sue, love this card would not have thought about using different coloured card. This a must try for me, as others have said, could be used for baby cards, men's cards etc.
Claire W, Ikea have narrow bookcases called Billy, they are just the right size for a4 paper and card and you can adjust the shelves yourself to make the most of the space. Hope this helps, take care everyone, Jess x
Hi Sue & lovely blog ladies,
I love this card today, a great one for posting as it's not too embellished ! I think it's a great technique for everyone to have a go at too, you could do it with any stamp. Thanks Sue for reminding us of this technique, I hope that Florida is bathing you in sunshine, although we could bathe quite easily in the bank holiday weather here! It's raining, well it is here in Carterton anyway!
Congratulations Carole, it really does feel special to own one of Sue's masterpieces.
Clare W I keep my colour card in colour groups in plastic A4 boxes, I can see through the boxes for the colours I need, so you can just pull one off the shelf, it takes a good while to get your craft stash sorted conveniently, ribbon storage is one of my frustrations! Trouble is if things are shut away in drawers you forget you got them!
Mrs B, I don't work in Witney I'm afraid, the only place I have spent a lot of time at other than my home is the Nuffield Hospital in Oxford! Lol, we do often go into Witney though, so maybe we have crossed paths there, it would be lovely to bump into you though, I met Cameeli at Ally Pally and it was like bumping into an old friend, it was lovely!
I am pretty much stuck in the house 24/7 so chatting daily on Sue's blog is a lifeline really, feels nice to have so many friends!
Hugs to everyone,
Sandra xxxx
Good morning Sue and fellow Wilsonettes,
I was amazed when i first saw you do this technique Sue as it produces amazing results and so different. I think that using a simple stamp suitable for a man would make a very original man card as we are always having difficulty with their cards. I love the colour scheme that you have used and i have the flower stamp from the last time you used it, so i will have a go when i can see my diningroom table again, which at the moment is piled high with everything. Hubby decided he wanted all the things that i had at the side of the cupboards moved so he piled it and everything else out of the stairs cupboard on the table. Help!!! I don't know where to start first as the whole room is upside down now. And i don't have under stairs cupboard to myself no, i have to share it with all the things i bought for the wee lass bottom drawer. Tell me how can you fit things from 3 cupboards into one tiny space as that is what has happened and just don't know where to start. MEN, sometimes i don't know where they store their intelligence (with the exception of male crafters as they would understand).
Tina, have i hope a nice day at the blessing, please try and enjoy it like your dad would want you to. He is there with you in spirit and in your heart and mind. Sending you some support gentle hugs to help you get through the day.
Steph, have a lovely time in York. Anne, i will hopefully see you at the show tomorrow at the Highland Show ground, just look for a daft mad woman on a scooter with a Lilac WOW badge with Sue roses on it.
Well we have it dry at the moment so i hope that it continues. The brain is went on strike again so i will say bye for now and take care my dear friends. Sending gentle hugs to our more fragile friends who need that wee bit extra, remember we, your blog family are here in spirit and keyboard for you,
Love and crafty hugs
Norah (Glenochil)
Morning Sue. another fantastic card

Very clever card today,very effective.
love Angela x
Hi Sue, love the card. Congratulations to Carole.
Very striking!
Hi Sue. What a fab card today !! I really love it, and I really love the colours too !! I love natural / neutral colours. ( Autumn colours, including shades of green are all my favourite colours.) As others have said, I think it would make a great card for a man using a male themed stamp instead. I definitely must try this great technique. With Fathers Day approaching next month, I have two Father's Day cards to make and a male Birthday card too, so today's card is very welcome !! I always have so many problems when it comes to making men's cards !! I am now thinking about the masculine stamps I have that I could use. Thank you Sue for sharing another great card with us today.
I hope you and your family are keeping well. Lots of love to you and your Mum today, love Tres x x x
To all the Wilsonettes, I hope everyone has a good day today and a lovely Bank Holiday weekend !! Lots of love Tres x x x
Elegant card,love the colours.Remember you demonstrating this technique on C&C and thought that it was great.Thank you for sharing.
Good morning Sue and everyone
This is such a lovely card today so pretty, I just love the shades you have created.
Many congratulations Carole something wonderful to treasure.
Tina I do hope all goes well and the weather holds up for Clare's Blessing today, thinking of you on this special day.xx
Steph hope you have a great time in York today with the hen party, your hat will be the best there I am quite sure, you enjoy. xx
Have a wonderful holiday weekend everyone, warm wishes and hugs to those who need them.

love, love love this. colours and technique are awesome. it's right up my street xx
Hi Sue, I Truly Love this Technique and
WOW "I Love this Card"
I can remember when you did a very similar technique on one of your Video Tutorial but using different Stamps and paper.
I Love The Chestnut and Milk Card Combination you've used, I have never tried this technique, I must give it a try as looking at this mornings Card, then watching the Video once again I think! I could achieve this?? May Be!!
I really Love The JustRite Stamp that you've used The Stitched Flowers (For me this set of Stamps when I first saw these, in the stores I thought NO! But When I see what you achieve with them has changed my mind) I Love the layering Fabulous Sentiment, Sue you Never Cease To Amaze Me With Your Fantastic Cards Your A True Artist And A Perfectionist.
Thank You for sharing, Thank You for the photograph shots they really do help me, I say it every day but I really mean Thank You for The Inspiration you give to me! and I'm sure many other's, Your Card Today is just Awesome I Love It.
Sue Take Great Care
Love and Hugs

Hello Sue, This is a very clever effect and will be trying it out. I am on my own time now, as I make cards for my church and have just finished 125 cards for Charity.
On a family holiday next week so have ordered plenty of sunshine, then I will be trying out my list of " to try".
Have a great weekend everyone.

Hi Sue
Such Gorgeous colors and design , i just love this card
Take care

Hi Sue,
Hello all crafting friends!
I had forgotten about this technique Sue and it is so effective! I will definitely be giving it a try too. I don't have that stamp but will have a big search later on for a suitable candidate! I totally agree that it's a great idea for cards for men and children too. Maybe my older group of kids on Mondays could try this on Fathers Day cards. I will have to try it first - but providing I prepped them it may be possible! They love trying new things.
Clare W - storage of cardstock - all my card is in A4 boxes - well actually they are larger as you can get the card out without damaging it. Boxes are see through but labelled - pinks, blues/greens, etc. makes it easier to find quickly. Stacked on shelf above my craft table. Was really interested to read about drawer storage too. Sure that would be easier.
Dry here at the moment but not very bright.
Love to all and hope you have a good day whether crafting, gardening, or even trying to clear the dining room table, Norah! Hope Bouncy Castle stays dry!
Love Myra

Oops! Congratulations to Carole! Love Myra
I adore triple-time-stamping, such a great effect :)
Hi Sue,
Yet another WOW. Have got this stamp so will certainly be trying this technique. Love it. Thank you.
Congrats to Carole. Lucky lady.
Have a lovely Bank Hol. everyone.
Much love,

Hi Sue
Good to be home and attached to the blog again. Hoping your weather is better than I had in Indiana, lots of storms. I am going to try this technique this afternoon, I agree with many of the Wilsonettes it certainly opens up the opportunities for ever difficult male cards. The Justrite stitched flower is now at the top of the 'I need' list closely followed by the Applique flower stamps. Best wishes to all Wilsonettes and hugs for anyone in neeed
Vanessa x
Another gorgeous card here Sue, and I agree, it´s a really fun technique to use and gives a fab result every time.
Really like this effect and just love that stamp. Have promised myself I must use up some of the stash I have before I buy anything else, so it will have to stay on my wish list for a little longer...
Thanks, Susan x
I luv this technique, although I haven't used it yet but it is on my list of things to try xx GailT xx
Hi Sue, the weather here is rubbish, so stay in the warm!! Love this card and the colours are perfect. Hugs, Carol S.xx
Morning Sue and everyone,
A really wet horrible day today, so I can spend some time in my craft room. This is a very unusual way of stamping and I must try it. Congratulations Carole on winning the card giveaway this week. I received my card that I won last week and they are so much nicer in real life and it has pride of place in my craft room. Have a great weekend everyone.
Hugs

Hi Sue
Beautiful card.I have tried triple stamping but has never turned out as good as this but will have another go and see what i was doing wrong
Take care
Hazel G x
I love the triple stamping technique and the colours on this card. Have a great weekend x
Love the card, the Justrite stamps are so nice especially that flower. I haven't tried triple stamping yet but I like the effect. Just love the overall effect of the card, so pretty!!!
Lovely as always Sue, I did one I liar to this the other day, using Phill's dandelion clock die, I stamped the seeds flying off one corner of the card over all the layers, I will definitely have a go at doing it this way.
Congratulations carol on your card.
After havering got soaked through last night teaching I dressed myself far more appropriately this morning, but still got a drenching, so am now cuddled up with the dog with dry clothes trying to warm up yet again!,, hugs to all especially Alison, Lynne and the girls, Norah, Pam, Cameeli, Tres, and mostly Sue and your Mum for always being there for us all xxx
Hiya Sue and the Wilsonettes
I love the sentiment. It's very true and very wise and can apply to anyone male or female.
The colours are great too.
It's a rotten day here in Blackpool. I hope everyone is having the best weekend possible.
Lots of crafty love, Jo xx

Oh that's lovely and somewhat different. Very nice.
I made a card for mother inlaw as I said I would using your Spanish collection and she rang last night to tell my husband how beautiful it was.
So thank you lol xx
Fabulous technique, looks really great. Made flowers from Sues faux quilled leaves and Sue said they were amazing, they take a little time to make but worth it if you don't have the flower die. Weathers awful here, so craft beckons. Have a good weekend. Hugs to all Theresa xx

Hi Sue, what a great card, love the different coloured layers and the stamp is to die for hehe. So perfect having you here cuz whenever I lose my mojo all I have to do is look at the creations on your blog and off I go again. Thank you for being you x x lol lynne m x x x
Poochies up reaaaallllllly early this morning ( how I wish I had their energy) so I thought as hubby snoring loud enough to wake the whole street not just me 'n' poochies I'd take them for a walk and let him sleep. Well off we went and not too bad until on the way back started to rain and as I am vertically challenged ( in other words short) my legs wouldn't keep up with poochies. We arrived home with me looking like a drowned rat, dried off poochies and set about breakfast , hubby comes downstairs and asks if fur babies had a walk . Yes I said and its raining. Oh is it he replies !!!! nothing gets passed my eagle eyed hubby not even my dripping wet hair!!!!!. What can I say between hubby and fur babies I don't stand a chance. x x x
My friends here on the blog - sending you lol and hugs x x x Lynne, Tilly and Cully
Another great technique. How do you think of them?!! It's a really pretty look and looks much more difficult than the instructions suggest.
Thanks for sharing tbis technique its definately one to try as the card is amazing .
Another great technique and not being a stamper (yet! I am trying) I think I could adapt it to my cdrom crafting It's really helped my mojo which is flagging at mo Congrats Carole
Hello Sue
Sorry i am a bit late today but enjoying a well earned break. I love the technique you have used it is so effective and very elegant.
CLARE W.
In answer to your question I too found it a nuisance so I purchased 2 x 10 drawer plastic units A4 size with multicoloured drawers and I use one for card and the other along side for any embellishments, ribbons, gilding wax, beads, embossing powders and anything else that goes with that corresponding colour. So when I have a themed card to make I only need to pull out two drawers. I have never looked back.
If you want any further information you can get hold of me on heather 4366@gmail.com
Congratulations to today's winner

A beautiful card, thank you for reminding me of this technique it's one I haven't tried for a while and so effective.x
Hi Sue Really love this card and the technique. Another one on my list of things to try! Gx
I've been out all day, but still had to come and see what you had been up to. Love this triple stamp technique! Congrats to the winner.
I have heard you talk about triple stamping - now I understand what you mean!
Hello Sue and Everyone.
This lovely card dazzled me this
morning when I had a quick look at it, I love the stitched flowers
they are so different.
I really really loved yesterdays
card Sue but could,nt comment
as our server had gone down [again]. Hope Everyone is ok from
Christine C and Ella
Evening Sue, I remember seeing you demo this technique on tv, and thought what a brilliant idea. The card is lovely.
Congratulations to Carole Z.
Lots of love from Patricia xx
Sue,
What great technique, I will have to give it a go.
Superfab card Sue! I love how the changing tones leads your eye to the centre of the card & your wonderful sentiment. Theresa x
Late for me, Sue, great triple stamping technique and love how the eye is deceived, sort of optical illusion. Great colours but personally would use other stamps. Must try this.
Well done, Carole - to win a Sue card is on my wish list (haven't got enough wants for a bucket!)
Clare W - all variations on a theme - my card is in 2 x 5 stacking office filing trays (in - out - pending if you get the drift) only trouble is they are open so I just put a sheet of copy paper on top to stop the dust (and I specialize in that!)

Hi Sue,
Such a different card I don't think it would look as good if I tried it. Congratulations to Carole. Hope everyone has a lovely weekend. Love and hugs to everyone.
Helloooo Sue and the Wilsonettes! I loved this technique when you did a demo and as always you've given another "reminder" of techniques forgotten! I love the shades you have used and like you say can use any colour combination. I'm thinking it would look good in pale blue, yellow, pink, etc; As it's been said it can be done with different stamps especially for male cards. Thank you Sue xx
Congratulations Carol on winning the Wednesday card giveaway! It's even more gorgeous in real life.....do the whoop whoop dance!
Just to say sending hugs to the lovely yet sad Wilsonettes who need one today........xx Take care Sue and everyone xx Love Karen xx
Sue absolutely love this card fab colours and thanks as always for the great inspiration and tutorial
Hi Sue. This is a new technique to me, may give it a go tomorrow. I like the colours too. SueL x
Hello Sue. A very clever technique, must try it soon. xx
Great card. I have tried this technique and it works really well.
Hi Sue and everyone,
I have the stitched flower stamps but haven't used them yet , but will be trying today's card but I think in a more pastel shade of card , love the concept but a little dark for me . Thanks Sue,
Congrats to Carole !!

Love this technique. I tried it several months ago when you did a card coloured with distress inks in green shades. I don't do a lot of stamping but was pleased with my attempt.
Another beautiful card Sue. Never seen one that isn't though. Great technique love the flower stamp
