Good Sunday Morning all! I have a really simple card for you today. The stamp does all the work really. I think this one would work very well for the guys in our lives or even as a get well or sympathy card., what do you think? I used the Honeycomb Haven embossing folder to add some texture to a piece of coconut white card. I matted it in black and added it to a larger white background, also matted in black. I stamped the Old Oak Tree stamp in black Archival ink on a piece of coconut white card. Using a wet paint brush, I picked up a bit of Tumbled Glass Distress ink that I had swiped on to my craft mat. I painted in the lake area, adding just a touch of pink as a reflection from the sky. For the sky, I did a bit of a watercolour wash, meaning I added water to my card, then touches of Distress ink in Mustard Seed, Spiced Marmalade and Barn Door to it. I just allowed the water to pull it around for a sunset looking background. I dried it with a heat tool then cut it out with the Innsbruck die outer frame. I added it to the centre of my embossed background with mounting foam. I decided not to add any further embellishments, but it could easily be dressed up for a more feminine look if desired. I finished the card with a frame of white PVA glue dots and a final white mat. The finished dimensions are 7 3/4" x 8 1/4" in size.

Hi Sue
Lovely card I have had a few sympathy cards to make this year and they are not the easiest to do so I often look around when I need to make one, and this would be ideal.
Congratulations to all the winners

Morning Sue
Truly a work of art for today's gift. As you say useful for many occasions including those pesky males in our lives. I love this stamp and have to say it's on my wish list but unfortunately you keep producing more and more magnificent dies and this lovely stamp gets further down my list.
It may also be because I would have to use water/ink etc and I just know what kind of mess I would finish with. Will just have to be brave in 2015 and see what mahem I can create. Perhaps Steph could help me out. lol.
Steph - good luck today with the market today. Hope you will be able to Keep warm.
We had a lovely morning with the littlies who of course are already on a 'high' (oh how I wish I had their energy) but that didn't stop U.Jim from visiting the old fashion sweety shop buying them Swirly Candy Lollipops which are loaded with E numbers and yes I was exhausted but have now recovered.
All Cakes are baked and wrapped just waiting to be put into Christmas Sacks and so today is the day I start to wrap all the presents so I might just have to have a pick me up later. These days wrapping day has been extended into two/three days and I use more bags than paper.
To all under the weather hoping you feel better soon. To everyone take care and stay safe. See you tomorrow.
Janet x
Good Sunday morning to all, I love today's card - I have this stamp & will definitely give this one a go!

Hi Sue
Beautiful tranquil card good for the Men in our lives and so nice for a sympathy card.
congrats. to the winners
Hugs to all Annx without an "e"
Hi Sue
What a perfect card to convey sympathy. The analogy between sadness and a setting sun is very poignant.
The way you have coloured the image is so professional with the little hint of pink suggesting the sun reflecting on the lake and the graduation of shades in the sky.
Your talent never ceases to amaze me
Gentle hugs to all those who have a sense of the sun setting in their lives.
Morning Sue, a beautiful card, such a peaceful feel to it. Don't have this particular stamp but think I could improvise. Hope everyone manages to stay warm.
Love Rosemarie xx
stunning Sue , adore the sky
Beautiful, serene perfect for a sympathy or difficult times card. Unfortunately I have done too many sympathy cards this year. Usually do classic white on white or black and white. I do special Christmas cards for those bereaved during the year. I have done some with your beautiful angel ( cut for me kindly by Steph and embosser to save time!) and some with your peace die. I always give a poinsettia with those cards. I managed to find a thinking of you this Christmas stamp which is the perfect sentiment.
Tilly's party yesterday took them indoor climbing - these parties get more exotic and I was challenged to find something no one else had done! Then home with 2 friends for a sleepover so been rather full on. Though managed to finish die cutting poinsettias and remaining cards whilst girls watching a movie!
Want to finish all craft projects tomorrow and finish the wrapping - I live in hope!
Tilly's birthday Tuesday and taking her and a friend to build a bear as a treat and out for tea!
Might get to sit down sometime! Well off for now. Congratulations to all winners and Teresa's daughter on getting the job! Good luck Cheryl with the rest of your treatment. Hugs to Norah, pop in and say Hi when you are ready xxx
This is perfect for a Sympathy card It makes a refreshing change to see you use an image and love how you've used Distress Inks to paint with
A beautiful, elegant card Sue. Excellent as a sympathy card too. Thank you.Xx
I just love this card, Sue. I find Sympathy cards the hardest to make, but you have done a fab job of the card....
Congratulations to all the winners...
Love the simplicity of this card and the way the stamped image has been coloured.
Well done to all the winners. A great card sue love the sunset xxx
Hi Sue, what a wonderful card, love the stamped and coloured image, so serene, it would be perfect for a sympathy card. Congrats to all the winners. Bx

Hi Sue,
I really do like this one especially as a sympathy card or for those pesky men. You have coloured the picture in so well it is really evocative. I've never tried doing a wash with ink just watercolour and got into a right mess with that! Will try it with ink. Congratulations to all of the winners hope you enjoy your prize - mine arrived of Friday and I love it - thank you Sue. Hope you're enjoying the time with your mom.
Steph hope things have settled down a bit , both with your poor hands and also the crafting " accident". Norah hope you are ok. Love and hugs to everyone. Going to try to get my tree up today if I manage to finish the packs of cards for my friends - only got 6 to do so should manage that - then the housework! Love Alison xxxx
Sunday Smiles to you Sue and all Wilsonettes. Firstly Id like to send this sentiment to all friends here having a bad time in their life, whether it be with your own health, family or friend, or if life in general is too hard to handle at the moment. Saba, your comments touch my heart.
Am I staring into a sunset or sunrise ? Which ever we choose, its serine and beautiful.
Sending many congrats to all our regular friends on the winners list today, enjoy your gift.
Janet - bless you. Market is 21st - next Sunday, yikes !!! Why is my list growing instead of getting shorter, will I NEVER learn that I cant please everyone ! Someone is bound to ask for a triangular box inbedded inside a diamond square shaped box ! Anyone have a template I can share LOL !
So now Im leaving you with special hugs this Sunday (before my phone crashes for the 3rd time) !!
And ask that if you find time to pop in to look at todays wotk of art, then leave a message of inspiration for Sue... It takes but seconds to show your gratitude.

I love this saying!!! It would be perfect to send to my uncle. I am so sad because he said he doesn't want me to come to visit him next summer (I live 9 hrs from him). His health has been declining for the past several years and he says he wants me to remember him as he used to be.
Beautiful card.Love the scene and the embossing background.

Hi Sue and everyone. Soothing card,very nice as a sympathy card or one for the men. Love your colouring in, it's something I would like to do more of. Will have to invest in this beautiful stamp,soon.
What happened to the times when the kids were happy with a McDonald and play in the ball thinghy.Now it's swimmingpool parties,rollerskate parties or you have to order home a trailer with car-racing machines oboy what times have changed.
Anyhow I wish you daughter Tilly a great Birthday on Tuesday,barbiepinkfairy, and hope she gets a nice Teddy with her back home. How old will Tilly be ?
Steph- I have bought some gelpads you put in the micro before going out and they help for a little while. My problem is not the hands doh just the fingers and they get so painful at times. Hope your crafting going ok and you get some sales next Sunday!

Hi, loved the way you have coloured this stamp, its beautiful.
Hi Sue, a gorgeous CAS card with the lovely stamp that I just had to buy after a previous showing by you. I love the way you have coloured it in, you really do see with an artist's eye.
Can anyone tell me where the week-end has gone? I have spent most of the day wrapping presents and trying to find suitable boxes in which to post them. This evening I have been making a special card for my sister using Sue's filigree poinsettias. I do wish I had remembered to put a sheet of double sided sticky onto my white card first!
Congratulations to all of today's winners, you will receive a lovely Christmas present from Sue.
Frances
I know I'm very late but I have a good excuse. I have done a Christmas craft fair today. It was disastrous. The weather put paid to that. On the plus side I sold 3 cards 2 of which are my Sue wilson inspired makes rather than what I call run of the mill cards. The compliments flowed but really too close to Christmas for the few that were there to think of cards. Back to the card.
I've been toying with buying this stamp but doubt my ability to do anything with it. It would be fab for mens cards like you say... Ummm. ...
well time for bed.
sleep well
Jo xx
Perfect Christmas card for the Man in your life, love it.
Hi Sue, it really would be a beautiful sympathy card,the stamp says it all. Congrats to all the winners. Marlene O xx
