Hello my crafty friends! I thought that I would make my first demo card from Sunday a Wednesday giveaway. I think it is such a pretty card, that periwinkle and white just sings to me! I started by stamping a piece of
periwinkle card using the
Justrite Twisted Fleur background stamp inked with
Clear Perfect Medium. I heat embossed it with
True White embossing powder. I cut down three sides of the card, leaving a bit at the bottom edge. I cut a wide strip of coconut white card and embossed it using my new
Pinpoint folder called Rows Of Bows. I added this piece to the bottom edge of the background then cut an
Italian border out of
periwinkle card and glued it across the join area. I added
small 3mm white pearls to the border as embellishments. For the focal element, I cut the
Hollywood die in white using the insert and the outer cutting edge. I mounted it on a piece of
periwinkle blue card that I cut with just the outer cutting edge to the die. It provided a perfect matching shape and allowed the blue to show through the pretty decorative white die cut. I mounted it with foam on the stamped background. Using the stamp from the
Rose Bouquet set by Justrite, I stamped it on to
periwinkle card with a
perfect medium pad and heat embossed it with white powder. I cut it out with the matching
Vintage Labels Two die, stamped my sentiment in black in the centre and mounted it with foam in the middle of my die cut. I made a flower out of the
white crochet ribbon by using the ribbon rose method at the top of my blog. I seated the rose on
white tulle and added a few
fern trio leaves around it. I finished the card by piercing the edge of a white mat layer using my piercing ruler to frame it. A thin blue mat then a wider white mat finished the card off nicely. If you would like to be included in the drawing to win this one, just leave me a comment! I will announce the winner on Saturday's blog post. Finished dimensions are 6 3/4" x 8" in size. All for now, Sue x

Morning Sue and everyone, lovely card today, gorgeous.
Steph, you and Norah and you keep us happy and amused with your posts, please dont think about changing them.
Margaret, my heartfelt symathies on the passing of your father-in-law. What a grand old gentleman he must have been and you have done him proud. Thank you for wanting to send Robbie a message, not sure how you will get it to me but let me know what you think.
Sure it is someones birthday today but the old grey matter must be stuck in the pink plaster and I cant think of the name (sorry) but happy Birthday to you.
You are right ladies, it is murder in this heat, leg feels like it has a thermal bandage weighted to it.
Tina, hope you passed muster at the doctors.
Hugs to all Wilsonettes who feel the need and take care
Reminds me of a beautiful Wedgewood trinket box my grandmother had on her dressing table when I was little. Such a very pretty card.

Margaret corgi owner, sending sincere condolences to you and yours on the death of your Father in Law. He will be so thankful that you showed your respect and have carried out HIS wishes.

Hi Sue and all the Wilsonettes
I loved this card when I saw it on Sunday and could do different colours to suit my friends, I have the bow embossing folder as next on my to buy list and hopefully my checkerboard one will arrive today, might have to teach hubby to use my GC so that he can do some bits for me to have a play with until I can get back to crafting.
My visit to the Doctor went well he said its a waiting game for things to settle down but if it gets worse to get back in touch and ringing the physio up today to see if they can offer any help, so thank you all for all your messages looking forward to being able to sit at the computer to read all the comments as my phone only has a small screen and after only a few comments it keeps closing the page very frustrating.
Love and big hugs to all the Wilsonettes
Happy crafting
Love Tina x
Morning Sue

Morning Sue
Another lovely card today, I just love the fresh colours
Pat x
Good morning Sue
I loved this card when you did it in your demo it's so pretty. I actually didn't buy your folders on Sunday ( spent far too much on your new dies lol) but they are certainly on my list. I do have your Californian collection dies though so can make this card using one of your other embossing folders.
Nanna Tina glad everything went well at the doctors
Margaret corgi owner sending you condolences on the loss of you father in law.

Good morning Sue this card is gorgeous I love the colours everything about it is perfect. Have a great day. Love Jackie
Hi Sue I am so glad you have blogged this card it is stunning and I loved it when it was shown on Sunday
The periwinkle card against the white is beautiful and topped off the the bow embossing folder is just simply stunning
Sue xx
Morning Sue and everyone.
Another lovely card today. I do have some of the periwinkle card, a beautiful blue. I haven't as yet hit any of these large background stamps, but think I will succumb and buy this one. Very stormy here this morning and humid, even my dog looks hot with her big fur coat on!
Enjoy your day everyone.
Love and hugs Dawn Searle xxx
What a fabulous card from the colours to the crochet lace flower to the embossing folder and the California collection die. I can't wait for the piercing rulers to be back in stock, such a pretty finish.
Muriel x
Wow what a stunner, colours perfect and right up my street. Just love it Sue would be a perfect card to have on the wall so here's hoping.xx
morning Sue
What a very beautiful gift for any lady of any age - How pleased would I be to have this come through my letterbox.
Today's colour scheme is just perfect; today's format shows off both your dies and your new folder to a T. Your new set of folders will be waiting for me when I return to the UK as postage from C&C to here is ridiculous.
Norah and Steph - we all need a place to rant sometimes and where better than within this wonderful blog of Wilsonette Sisters. We all are crafters and so support each other in so many ways that others just could not understand. We are all here to receive inspiration and to learn new techniques from our No.1 Lady of Craft and along the way collect a wonderful group of friends.a
Sandra - missed you yesterday -
We are still in the doldrums here in Burgundy - the weather forecast was for Summer to return today for the next 5/6 days but still no sunshine this morning and it's overcast with a stiff breeze - just like Autumn. I think someone stirred the weather calender the wrong way round this year. The farmers need a good period of dryness to finish off the harvest.
There that's my moan for today so back to a happy face for anyone who needs one and hoping all are feeling a little better today.
Take care and see you tomorrow.
Janet x
Beautiful. Love the blue and white and the lacy rose is fab. Maybe today is my lucky day. Hugs from Ireland. Evelyn x
Hi Sue this is a gorgeous card, loved it when I saw the demo. The blue is so classy with the white. Your folders look great. Take care all x

What a beautiful card sue love the blue and white.
Morning Sue and Wilting Wilsonettes ! It was really kind of you to bring such lovely weather back from Florida Sue like we requested, but enough now, tooo much for tooo long lol, I promise im not ungrateful, but with my meds, I actually have to stay out of the sun as I come out in an itchy rash and are running out of shady places to go to walk the hound !! Are we EVER satisfied with our weather ?! Lol. Hoping Burgundy is getting some of this for our sister Wilsonette !
I love this colour combo and watched in ore when you took us step by step on Sunday. I must admit though Sue that although I love the vutsie crochet ribbon flower Id end up throwing it up the wall in tears and frustration, then Id rip the wall paper cuz that red backed tape is mighty strong, I just know that my 'stubbie' finger wouldnt feel the ribbon, its a useless little digit and has no feeling lol just there being no use to me one bit, so not only would I not feel it, I wouldnt be able to 'pinch n turn' so Id have a clump of croche ribbon plonked on the side as a blob of an embelishment, not the right effect - agree ? Lol but I love your handmade bows Sue, and your pretty little bow EF is so cute : ) yep, all in all a beautiful card, thank you. Good luck everyone.
Tina im glad your teport from Gp visit was 'ok' but you must be going crazy with the length of time its taking you poor thing. I know what you mean about phone blogging, I could dance on this when Im ready to hit publish button and the screen goes blank grrrr !
Margaret. Have sent a personal email xx
Well please keep safe my dear friends, pray your craft room is the coolest room in the house (mine is but my brain cell has melted) !
Love to all today and sending hugs.
Love you.

Good morning Sue and everyone.
It looked pretty on the show and still does here.
Gorgeous!
Have a great day.
Ang x
Utterly gorgeous! I can't find anything I don't like today. The whole card has a fabulous 'balance' so there are areas like the white bit for the eye to rest then some detail to contrast.
I take a screenshot on my tablet of the ones I really like. They go into the gallery and I can look at them when I need ideas and inspiration. So helpful.
Off to sort out ma-in-law's kitchen troubles today.
Alison
Hi Sue
Beautiful card. This blue with White looks like wedge wood. The roses are gorgeous too. I have ordered the embossing folders and can't wait for them to come so I can play! Thanks for sharing.
Am Soooooo fed up of this weather now! I wish it would cool down. Am not good in the heat!
Hugs to all who need one.
Deepest sympathies to Margaret.
LOVE this card ! I watched you demo this one and thought it was amazing, so fingers crossed, but might give it a try anyway, I ordered my Rows of Bows from JS yesterday ( great prices) so it's on it's way ( might even arrive today as JS deliveries are really smart).
Thankyou Norah, Myra P ,Lynda and June YLass I had a wonderful day at Fortrose , the weather was perfect and the golf pretty good and great company so a happy time was had by all.
Condolences to Margaret CO , sometimes it's good when people let you know what they would like, because by fulfilling their wishes it somehow gives you a comfort in return ( brings my dad to mind ).
Steph and Norah , I love all your stories and always have to check and read what you've been up to , big part of the blog to me.
Pam ,I feel so sorry for you with your pot on in this heat, but not long to go now, hugs to Robbie.
Glad you got good news at the doctors Tina and hope it settles down soon
Hope you get some sunny weather Janet, it must brighten up sometime.
Another glorious morning here in Gairloch and so the garden beckons before my grandchildren want to go down to the beach ( happy days)!
Hugs to all xo
What a beautiful card, love the colours and the stamping and embossing folder make such an elegant card.

Such a pretty card, I loved it when I saw it on Sunday. Thanks for all your inspiration Sue, although I am now sure my bank manager would agree with me as I had to give in yesterday and buy the embossing folders!
Happy day everyone and good crafting!

Wow Sue, Even though I saw you demonstrate this card on Sunday I still think its got the WOW factor of cards every time I see it!
The colours are very fresh & clean, & yes, it also reminds me of the pottery Wedgewood (I originate from the Potteries area of Stoke on Trent too! (even though Wedgewood wasnt based there). It was great to see you on Sunday as it was only by chance that I switched onto C&C & saw your beautiful face. I would love to win this gorgeous card a it would take place above my craft area as daily inspiration ;)
Happy Crafting {{{hug}}}

Hello Sue, this is such a pretty card and one that should be on a wall so that when the door is opened it is seem each and every time. It would gladden any heart, so I would love to be but in your spotty potty to have a chance to win it.

A very pretty card, Sue! I really like the Twisted Fleur background stamp and the new Pinpoint embossing folders. Lovely!
Nadine in Spain
Oooh, Sue, I loved the card when you demo-ed it, and I'd be honoured to give it a home! I have your embossing folder set on order, but probably won't get it until the end of next week. C&C do try my patience sometimes.
Love the colour combination and simplicity of this card, Sue. Some cards are too fussy for me but this one is just right!
Morning Sue and all,
Love the Periwinkle and white, watched you demo it on Sunday. Am waiting for my order to come(hurry up Create and Craft Please) So I can start to play.
Have a good day everyone. Susi x

Hi Sue, well what a stunner. Really really love the periwinkle blue card. As has been said already the card has a real "Wedgewood" feel to it. I received your new embossing folders yesterday and can't wait to start playing with them. Anyone would be proud to receive such a lovely card, to stop any arguements just send it to me hehe lol lynne m x x x
Getting really edgy now as poochies still just lying around, I know they're feeling the heat but I'm more concerned that the longer it takes them to get back to their normal mischief the more they will get up to, to make up for lost time. Norah will definitely then need to rescue me from the locked wards.
Margaret C O - gentle hugs to you x x
Pam - hugs for Robbie and you x x
To June, Lindsay, Karen, Lynda, Alison , Norah, Steph, Cameeli, Maria, Tres, Angela, Barbara, Mrs B, Myra, Sandra- massive hugs and lol from pesky critters x x
If anyone would like to offer to have my two fur babies for a few days when the weather breaks my mind would be grateful cuz I know once the mischief starts back up I will lose what sanity I have hehe x x x x
To all stay cool and have a good day x x x lol
Hi Sue,
This is such a pretty card, I love the new embossing folder and your lace flower. I recorded the show on Sunday so now I can rewind to catch the flower technique again and again as mine never seem quite right but practise makes perfect.

Just a really beautiful card. I love your lacy dies. xx
Morning Sue. I watched you make this card on tool shed it is gorgeous. Love the blue and white. Waiting for my folders and will try this one. Hugs Heather.x
Hi Sue
Perhaps I have already told you that periwinkle is my favourite card, today's card is so beautiful and it's not just the colour. Love the background stamp and the Californian dies and of course your new EF.
Best wishes to everyone, Pat
Morning Sue.
I fell in love with that card when I saw it on Sunday so I am very pleased to see the instructions again on here.

Hi sue, what a lovely card, well when you were on TV on Sunday I got another set of your dies, thanks to my fabulous husband, now I need to have a play with all my new dies, have a lovely sunny day, by the way my daughter and grandson have settled in well in Cyprus , so thank goodness for that I can stop worrying about them now crafty hugs Julie xxxx
TO THE LOVELY WILSONETT LADYS
Well I got my puppy lee surprise me with her
She's 11 weeks old and so lovely,
She's a toy poodle mixed with a bichon frise, black with a little white stripe underneath her chest,
She had her jabs yesterday, and can't go out for 3 weeks, she's so funny and very playful, you know I have Sophie my white toy poodle who's 7 when I got ill she went all for my husband and doesn't bother with anyone els, she's I bit put out with the new one, but the vet told us to give Sophie lots more attention than the puppy, if any one can help, at what age do you start training the puppy at, as 7years ago I had all my children at home and they were a great help, my 2 daughters are married now, so there's only me lee and my 17 year old son who's more bothered about driving lol so any help would be very appreciated thank you,
Crafty hugs Julie xxx
Hi Sue, a gorgeous card. I love your background embossing folder, dies and the stamps you have used. Beautiful colourway too.
Oh my - this is stunning! I love the colourscheme and that JustRite stamp is gorgeous!
Lovely card Sue. Fun to pick out all the different dies/background folders and see how well they all co-ordinate. Now I just have to pluck up the courage and order a few, but the exchange rate of dollars to pounds is horrible at the mo!! Have to decide which to buy first -- oh my, where to begin??
I really liked the demo and accually it made me write in to the studio, but as usual they didn't read it. Anyway, I love the card, and would so much like to win it :)
Abeautiful crisp bright card today, love it.
I Love this card and love the colours

Good Morning Sue I watched you make this beautiful card on Create & Craft and I would love to be the lucky one who gets it. Such lovely colours and I love the background Beryl xx
Hello Sue, just to say my folders arrived today, ordered Sunday. They are so gorgeous.
Sandra, Mrs B and Pat, have a wonderful day girls.
Julie, so nice to see you back and welcome to the new puppy, does she have a name? Good on you Lee.
Love to all
Hello Sue
Love this card. I was the one who sent my first E.mail to Create and Craft just so I could win this card and say how much i love you and julia.
I was thrilled to be read out but did not win the card. Never mind I will try today with you. It was good on Sunday wish you had longer on the show though. Well done.

Good Morning Sue,
WOW! This is such a stunning card and in one of my favourite colour combos too. I may just have to purchase this embossing folder a little sooner than I had originaally planned. Thank you for sharing and I hope you enjoy the rest of your day.

Love this card, my favourite colour. Would love to own this one.

Hi Sue, a stunning card. Love the periwinkle card.
Wedgewood colours - always so elegant. I can't wait for my embossing folders to arrive, the rows of bows is absolutely lovely. I like the different sections in this card it makes it more interesting yet no less elegant and stylish.
Good morning Sue and fellow Wilsonettes,
What a beautiful card Sue, i love the blue and white pattern on dishes and this is what it reminds me off. I love the blue so much that i used all of it from the 5 colour bundle. I wonder if C.E. will do some of the colours separately as some are a go to on numerous occasions. I have ordered up your new embossing folders as i think they are so pretty especially the dotty line with the bow to break it up.
Oh what a lovely day we have up here in the Wee County today so it is bath time for a few favourite "people" from my childhood while they can go up on the whirly gig and dry in the sun. I made a book card for my friends’ wee granddaughter the other day from Grand Labels 4 die & labels 4. I made it a little girls rainbow using the soft colours instead of the bright ones and her granny loved it so just hoping the wee one loved it. I put a castle with a sea of daisies around its feet, ballet shoes, a tutu with pink satin lace, butterflies and all sorts of pretty girly things on the pages so that it was something different by each page and topped it with her name being on bunting across the smallest. I had lots of fun making it as her granny didn't specify what just something girly. I made a box for it with an opulent ovals die cut with a "mirror" behind it and lots of daisies with different coloured stones in the centres.
Jim and i had climbed one of the big trees in our garden and was hanging upside down from the branch by our ankles. Mum came out and took 40 hairy fits and shouted at us to get down. So we did, head first down the rope of the swing that was tied to the tree. After checking us out to make sure we weren't hurt she larupped us with her hand telling us not to do that again as it had given her such a fright. I don't know who hurt most, our behinds or her hand. Did it stop us? No, up we would go again but just were quicker off the mark on hearing footsteps approaching, our hearing improved greatly that summer,fun times.
Have fun Mrs B with Pat and Sandra, i bet it will be like you have always known each other which is the very best. ENJOY YOURSELVES GIRLS.
You mean Nanna Tina that you haven't introduced him to your GC and how it works? You have one that will do things for you, take full advantage and make use of him while you can. It will keep both your spirits up, him thinking he is helping, you thinking "he's used too much card or cut it out the wrong way" but it is nice that i can do at least some of my card making. I hope that you get some help at the doctors today and they can do something for your pain and ease it somewhat.
Cameeli, are you sure that you are going to be that age and not just 21 with 31 years experience? I hope that you have and absolutely fabulous time and enjoy everything about it flower.
Janet, i am trying to wish some of the beautiful sun across to your side of the channel as well. We are sort of getting sporadic moments of lovely weather and then it waits until i have typed that and sent it and then it changes to a winters day again so fingers crossed that it stays a wee while.
Steph, you can come up here flower for a holiday and then you have the lovely woods and the countryside literally on the doorstep. We have lovely parks not 10minutes from the door that little Miss Cassie would love.
Oh Anne, how lucky are you to live in such a pretty place like Gairloch.
Have a fabulous day everyone with gentle hugs going to all our fragile friends, with thoughts going to wee Robbie and Pam, who still has all the veg chopped ready for her very own hotpot,
Love and crafty hugs
Norah (Glenochil)
BTW Does anyone know of a UK stockist that actually has the Creative Expressions Piercing Ruler in stock, I've been trying to buy one for months now.

Take care

Stunning card, Sue. My favorite color.
Hi Sue. Such a beautiful card. Love the periwinkle and your gorgeous rose. The dies are stunning and really stand out on your wonderful creation :-) Have a great day and hugs to all xxx
Loved this card when I saw your show but, of course, we only get a quick glimpse when it is finished. Now I can gaze at it and see all the detail - it is really stunning and the periwinkle card is such a fab colour. Pat x
Hello Sue,
Loved this card on C on C. To be able just to sit and gaze at it on my screen its even more beautiful. I love blue card with white embossing it just works so well. The dies you have chosen stands out a treat and bring the whole card together beautifully.
We are on our last school run today until September, as the little one breaks up for the summer holidays today. And next week the family are away for their annual holiday, so will be childfree for two weeks, (we will miss them)
Have a lovely day, Love Brenda xxx
Mrs B. Sandra and Pat S, what time in Whitney.
Nanna Tina, do your family and ask you if there is a special gift you would like? I suggest even if they club together you ask for an iPad, much easier than using your phone and the screens larger. Mr L bought me one over a year ago now, all the grandchildren have one he thought I would like one. BUT He would never use the computer and asked me to do all his research, whatever it would be about, now he uses the iPad, because it's so easy and fast. Brilliant I've got more time to play and do get to use it sometimes!!!
Cameeli, Happy Birthday for the 28th. It's also Eldest Daughter and son in Laws wedding anniversary also her birthday is 29th (51 this year) Have no excuse for forgetting yours have I !!!!!!!
Mrs B Sandra and Pat S
That should have read have a lovely time in Whitney! Whoops! sorry

Hi Sue, hope you are well today? Also, to any Wilsonettes who have health problems, either themselves or their families, I wish you all better health in the future! What a beautiful day it is here in Pembrokeshire, although it is a little too hot for me, so I will probably be indoors, playing with all the lovely goodies I bought after your demo in Haverfordwest! What a FABULOUS day that was, the memories of that day will stay with me forever! You have produced another stunning card today, Sue! It looks so clean & fresh & also reminds me of a Wedgewood pattern! I would love to be in with a chance to win this stunning card! Hope to meet you again sometime in the not-too-distant future! Take care! Love & Best wishes, Mary Blight XXX
This is a lovely card Sue & I enjoyed watching you make it on C/C on Sunday, especially the crotchet lace flower. Ann, France

Good morning Sue
Well in sitting in my sort of garden in the baking sun checking out your blog.
The card is absolutely beautiful. Truly stunning. Love the colours. I don't own any periwinkle card but im going to search some out. Works so well.
The sun is glaring on my phone so I hope this comment is legible. It's like going to the bank and not being able to see the screen.
Enjoy the sun everyone. Lots of crafty love

Take care Sue and everyone xx sending love and hugs to all our Wilsonettes who need one today xx Love Karen xx
Lovely! More 'Wedgewood' ;)
Hi Sue,
As many others I said - I too loved this card hen you demonstrated it on C&C on Sunday's show. I ordered the bow EF and it arrived yesterday. It is stunning. Think it could look good with some Itty Bitty bows as well! I love the blue and white of today's card . I had more success making crochet ribbon roses that the striped ribbon ones. First attempts went straight in the bin! Thanks Sue for bringing such joy and inspiration it is much appreciated.
Mrs B, Sandra and Pat - have a great time! Sure you will.
Anne - pleased your golf day sent well - sunshine, beautiful scenery and good friends all make for a lovely day.
Norah - you have had me in stitches today. It's a wonder you reached adulthood ! I was such a scaredy cat unless sport was involved! Your little rainbow book is an inspired idea! It sounds absolutely super. It has given me an idea for the children I work with on Mondays? Holidays now but need to plan for September. We could do a project that would take several weeks! Thanks Norah - you're a star! x hope you don't mind! x
Cameeli - before I forget - have a super time in New York - its a great city - and have a super Birthday!
Pam love to you and Robbie - you will never forget this summer! Try to keep as cool as you can.
Love to all lovely friends on the blog.
Love Myra
You are so right Sue the white and periwinkle look gorgeous together. Love the combination of the stamped and embossed background x
Absolutely gorgeous!
Beautiful card Sue, love the colours and the embossing folder is my favourite, have ordered from Joanna sheen.
LYNNE MILLS
Enjoy the quiet while it lasts I am sure they will be back to mischief soon!!!
JULIE LAZ
What a wonderful surprise!
I have a 12 yr old Bichon and am hoping to get another after I get my husbands birthday out the way in Sept. I am also worried about bringing a new pup in with an older spoiled dog and don't want him to get jealous.
Are you putting papers done for the pup, keep moving them closer to the door and when you see it going to the papers take her out to do the toilet when she is allowed outside. It is never too early to start training a pup as they say what you teach it now will benefit you as it gets older. I have always found that Bichons can be stubborn but I don't know about poodles. You should always use small treats as an incentive to praise them when they do as their told. She sounds absolutely gorgeous and I wish I could see a picture of her!!!
I have told my husband when I get a pup I am going to take him to puppy classes and get some proper training as my 12 yr old is so spoilt and I don't think I could cope with two horrors!!! I think myself and LYNNE MILLS could start up a support group fro misbehaving dogs!!!!!
Afternoon Sue
Amazing card , love the background stamp very effective. Fantastic embossing for the bottom of card really pops.

Absolutely beautiful card. Love the blue and white and the die you used. Adore your new embossing folders they are gorgeous. Looking forward to some videos on your new die release, they are stunning.
The card is beautiful. The delicate blue against the white is a wonderful combination. The die cuts are perfect for this card. I love the heat embossing and the sentiment and the well balanced proportions of the layout. http://www.pinterest.com/pin/415386765604476588/
I also love reading the comments of the others. What a lovely community!
The crochet rose goes just perfectly with all the elements. Another wonderful card.

Hope it's ok! Congratulations to Julie Laz on new puppy. What is the puppies name? So pleased for you but don't envy you the training. Having said that our lab was really quick to learn. Enjoy ! X
Love Myra
Love you card and the colours. I like what you did with the crochet ribbon making it in to a flower, will have to try it.
