Have a good day everyone. I will not be able to concentrate in meetings today so will have to try and get down off cloud 9. Cameeli xx
Good morning Sue and everyone. A very spring-like card, will watch the video tonight. Congratulations Cameeli on the arrival of the little chap. Sue xxx
Good morning Sue and everyone Gosh, that's a bright green but very fresh looking on this pretty card. Congratulations to Cameeli too. Have a great day. Ang x
Such a lovely card. Love the ribbon. Cameeli, I am so happy for you, a beautiful grandson, lots of congratulations to you and your son and daughter in law. What a great start to 2015 for you all.
Lovely to watch a video again Sue, fabulous techniques and very pretty card Congratulations Cameeli , yes being a grand parent is just the very best thing, enjoy every moment.
Hi Sue. How do you do it? I am not a big fan of lots of green but I always love any of your green cards!: ) Cameeli, glad to hear that you have had those oh so special first cuddles. Good luck with trying to concentrate at work! Pam, it is strange not seeing your name at the top of the comments but a little further down each day. You must be having a few extra minutes in bed (very sensible) : ) Sending my daily hugs to everyone. Take care.
Hello Sue, another gorgeous creation, love the shade of green used, and so effective with the ruched ribbon. Great step by step video. Congratulations on your Grandson Cameeli. Have a great day all. Bx
Good Morning Sue! I will watch the video later but for now I love the colour! The embossing folder is a lovely touch reminds me of Elizabethan times! Looking forward to your next Dies in 2015 Sue! Take care Love Marg
Hi Sue Beautiful card. I love this unusual shade of green and the ruffled ribbon technique. An oldie but goodie! The stamp is lovely too. Thanks for sharing. I agree with Mrs. B. It is strange not seeing you at the top Pam! Glad you are there further down though. Congratulations to Cameeli on your precious new grandson. Enjoy your time with him. Hugs all round.
Morning Sue Thank you for starting my day off with the first of your videos for 2015. Today's gift is wonderful and so versatile in format to be used for any occasion I think. I'm not a true lover of green having had to be dressed in it for five years in school uniform but you can certainly win me over with today's palette. It's so so gentle. I have one or two of your stamps to die for and as yet have not managed to use them so another thank you for giving me the nudge I need.
Cameeli - CONGRATULATIONS on becoming a Nan/Gran and it's a boy. Oh what fun you're going to have with him. Cuddles all round to you and yours. What a way to start your return to work after the holidays. You couldn't have had a better one. Sandra - hope you're ready with your Belgian Bun as breakfast will be served in about 15 mins. It's very very very white outside with a deep frost this morning so I hope you're well wrapped up as you don't have the luxury of a log burner there. Perhaps you can get Paul to put in a chitty requesting one from stores!!!lol. Norah - I'm hoping you're managing to come round from your horrible end to an awful year you had. It will be lovely to have you back.
Well as it's so cold outside and I'm not venturing outside the door today I can see a full on crafting day ahead for me. The kitchen will look like a war zone at the end of the day but it will show just how busy I've been creating (oh how I wish I had a little smidge of Sue's inspiration). Mr E's job today is to top up all the bird feeders etc so that will keep him busy for a time.
To all in pain/suffering I hope you feel better soon. To all please take care and stay safe. See you tomorrow. Janet. x PS Mr E has just returned from the bakery and informs me it's -5 so the birds need feeding extra and it's definitely an at home day.
An absolut gorgeous card here again Sue, and a really great technique too. Just a little frustrating, that every time you show a great idea, and we go to get hold in the dies and embossingfiolders, they´re almost always out of stock.
Wonderful card and Great Video, I love the green ribbon it looks so lovely and fresh and the EF is gorgeous! Congratulations Cameeli ! So happy for you on the safe arrival of your lovely new little grandson, little boys are so loving and give wonderful cuddles, enjoy! Love and Hugs to all xo
Good morning Sue It's great to have the videos back it made my day and such a fabulous card to kick off. The embossing folder and dies you've used are gorgeous, I must get these stamps they look so good with the matching dies. I love green and white together it always looks so clean and crisp. Congratulations Cameeli on becoming a Grandmother enjoy your time with your Grandson. Hugs x Heather T
Hi Sue what a beautiful card again today and a great video. I'm loving the ruched ribbon it is so effective. Been meaning to say thank you for telling us the sentiment stamps you are using in the videos, the stamps to die for are very pretty too. Have a great day. Love Diane G xxx Cameeli how wonderful to have first cuddles. Now as you sit in those meetings today with a big grin on your face, make sure you don't say yes to everything and end up with loads of work to do! Xxx
Morning Sue. This is a little stunner, beautiful stamp and the colour is nice and fresh. Will have to give this one a try. Thank you for the return of the videos as you give use crafters great inspertation with all the hints and techniques on how to make your beautiful creations. Best Wishes. Denise T x
Good Morning, Sue and Everybody, Brilliant Card with your brilliant Scadinavian dies; I love them. Great video, too. Thank you, Sue.
Something strange has happened to my lifelong red/green colour-blindness: John Next Door has opened my vision to green hues in particular! I don't know how, but it has happened! And I am very happy about this little miracle. Congratulations, Carmeeli, your very own little Miracle Grandson! Love, Lisxx
Hi Sue - what a stunning card this is. Reminds me of springtime. The video is brilliant too and I think I will now be investing in more stamps to match dies. When I pinned the card it produced four more of your videos - this has never happened before so I hope it's a new feature when using Pinterest! Sending best wishes YvonneMayxx
Hi Sue Another stunner today. I'm not to sure about the bright green bow, however like blue it's starting to grow on me. Mind you, you can do the card and not use the bow at all. I look forward to seeing the video later. Congratulations to Cameeli on your new addition to the family. Hugs to all in need of one today.
Morning Sue, Pam and all Wilsonettes, fantastic video today, love the rushes they look gorgeous and the colour is really nice, I am certainly going to have a go at this one, I have the embossing folder which really is stunning and have used it many, many times, I think I can say it is my favourite. I also love the black and white top you are wearing, very elegant.
Have a great Tuesday everyone, stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs June Smith xxx
Hi all, sorry didn't get to pop by yesterday not a good day at all. Had a look this morning what a beautiful card , also Cameeli congrats. I am not a lover of green but todays card is stunning. I have some of those dies so will be giving this one a go. Love the video so informative. hugs to all. Theresa xxx
Hi Sue, a beautiful card and I love the unusual shade of green. I think I will have to get some more matching stamps now. I will watch the video later because the sun is actually shining and it is above freezing so I am going to pop out to the shops for a few messages then I can hopefully settle down to a crafting day. Frances
Good morning Sue, and all the ladies. What a beautiful card, and green is my favourite colour. Reminds me of the Irish song, the Forty shades of green. I hope everyone is as well as they can be in mind, body and spirit. Love xx
Morning Sue and all. Woohoo back to our video tutorials again. Brain likes video can understand video (when it chooses) !! What a vibrant colour so spring like and fresh. Wishing even more that our local craft heaven was open as my mouth is watering and my birthday/Christmas money is burning a hole in my pocket, it needs spending sooon ! Santa left me Oslo but I really need the border and tag dies to go with. Will just have to wait a while longer I suppose. Cameeli you stay on that warm fluffy cloud 9 for as long as you want, does it matter that you look like the cat that got the cream ? Nope, so drink in all the joy your new little Prince gives for as long as you want. Enjoy this precious new family member Cam. Love to all my friends especially those that are unwell lonely and sad. Love you. Lancashire Steph xx
Good morning Sue and everyone What a stunning card so fresh and beautiful, a very interesting technique too.
CONGRATULATIONS Cameeli and welcome to the grandparents club! A little warning your time will fly now and so will your pennies you will never be rich! Delighted to hear your wonderful news so pleased all went well and you did not have too long to wait. The gift of love is a special thing to know the joy a child can bring.
Have a good day everyone Hugs Margaret corgi owner
Hi Sue, delighted you have made a video of this card, it is one of my very favourites (is that grammatically correct)anyway, just love it. I had pondered over how you did the ribbon and now I know. Thanks, Carol
Good Morning Sue and everyone! Beautiful card and lovely green colour.The EF is also lovely so unless your EF coming in smaller then A4 my buy for this year might have to be a GC...

Morning Sue. Love the card although Green not a colour I would use but I really like it. Looking forward to watching video later. Clearing and tidying craft corner aaaagh!!!! Hugs Heather.x
Hello Sue A lovely card and video today and that fresh green is gorgeous. I don't have any of these dies but I do like them, not forgetting that wonderful Embossing Folder which is on my Wish List. Just off to my Exercise Class, need to shift some of those excess Kilos that seem to pile on in the Winter months!! It is nice to see your videos again. Lesley S x
Oh WOW Sue, I love that shade of green it really zings. I've seen that embossing folder used before and was undecided but now I know I need it...oh is that list ever going to reduce? My love and hugs to you all.
A very beautiful and elegant card today. I love the green on it and the embossing too. Just watched the video and will try the ruched ribbon technique although I doubt somehow mine will looks as good as yours lol
Hello Sue, Thanks for another great video and your clear instructions, this card is gorgeous, spring like and fresh, love the dies and stamps used, need to get that embossing folder. Enjoy the rest of your day. Cameeli enjoy those wonderful cuddles and stay on cloud nine as long as you can. Hugs to all Wilsonettes, here and missing. Take care. Hugs June xxx
Hi Sue, what a lovely card, the ribbon is so luxurious and a wonderful shade of green. What wins it for me though is the beautiful embossing you're used this time. That's another folder to go on my list :). As always, thanks for sharing with us. I'm off to watch the video now. x
Gorgeous card, Sue and I hope I can watch the video tonight whilst my better half makes the dinner! I love when you use green as it always looks so beautiful.
Hi Sue My Dear Friend, WOW What A Stunning Card And A Very Informative Video, I Love How You've Done The Ribbon. I Love The Embossing Folder And The Beautiful Colours You've Chose To Use Today. It's Only A Short Comment Today As I've Quite A Lot To Do, But I Couldn't Go Without Making A Quick Comment. Sue Take Care Love And Hugs From Sam xxx Hugs To All The Wonderful People That Comment On Our Sue's Awesome Blog I Do Hope Your All Well!
Hi Sue, Really enjoyed the first video of 2015, looking forward to seeing many more. You make it look so easy, I have tried the ruffled ribbon technique and mine just looked a mess, cockeyed, uneven and just not right. Might give it another go though because it looked fabulous on your card, which was gorgeous as ever. Wish I could afford reels of seam binding in all the various colours, but at £20 a reel, I always buy off white and have to dye it myself, I prefer to save my pennies to buy more of your fabulous dies!! Love and hugs for all Saba
Nice card! I wouldn't have thought to use green, but I like it. Simple yet effective. I also enjoyed the video. I love your messy bows, but don't know where to get that seam binding you are always talking about. I started watching Create and Craft TV now that it is on here- when are you going to be on? I know you told us already, but I forgot. Gail
Hi Sue What a beautiful card to start your first Video of 2015. Love the colours and dies. Wish i could make a card as quick as you can on your videos. Take care Sue Hazel G XX
Absolutely love the card and that shade of green is fab. I sat down this afternoon and watch your excellent video. It's not until something comes back, you realize how much you have missed it.
What LOVELY news Cameeli. Your life will become a whole new book of memories, enjoy every bit, like our children grandchildren grow up quick too. Hark at me! mine is still wishful thinking. But I'm sat here with camera, pen & memory book poised. Congratulations Cameeli and to the brand new parents. XX
Hi Sue, A fabulous fresh springlike green card to welcome back the videos , love the colour and all the dies you've used going now to watch the video, thanks Sue, hugs xxx Crafty hugs to all wilsonettes, Hugs Jean D xxxx
This is one of my favourite cards, think I saw it at some point last year. It hits my top five as its green and white - my top two all time favourite colours. Love the whole effect.
Hi Sue, Great video - so nice to have them back! Great start to the year. Love the card and even the green - I too had green school uniform for around 12 years! It kind of puts you off a colour! I'm so excited as I have mastered Pinterest! I know, I know it's not difficult but it was to me! I did it bu myself as well as I kept forgetting to ask my grandaughters to help me! I've got a Sue File! Love to everyone, I'll have calmed down by tomorrow! Myra xxx
Thank you so much for another wonderful video. I so love to watch you work :) This is a beautiful card. And what a gorgeous embossingfolder...! I want that one! And all the Scandinavian dies are so gorgeous.
Fantastic video as always Sue! Love the card, I do like green and this is a lovely shade. I haven't tried the ruched ribbon yet but will have a go as it is so pretty.
Oh what a lovely card fesh looking and using one of my favourite colours.I do prefer it when you use something other than black and white, although I do like that colour combo I think that now we are heading into the spring we need to be using brighter colours. Christine
Hi Sue. I think this card is lovely. Really like the green ribbon, what a lovely shade of green it is. Have actually watched the video today before commenting, which is unusual. SueL x

ReplyDeleteHi Sue, a beautiful card and I love the unusual shade of green. I think I will have to get some more matching stamps now. I will watch the video later because the sun is actually shining and it is above freezing so I am going to pop out to the shops for a few messages then I can hopefully settle down to a crafting day.

Good morning Sue, and all the ladies.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful card, and green is my favourite colour. Reminds me of the Irish song, the Forty shades of green.
I hope everyone is as well as they can be in mind, body and spirit. Love xx
Wow, oh so pretty. Happy that you are posting videos again. I missed it over the holidays. Thanks you Sue.
ReplyDeleteMorning Sue, just love the colours, absolutely gorgeous card! Love Jean xxx

Morning Sue and all. Woohoo back to our video tutorials again. Brain likes video can understand video (when it chooses) !!
ReplyDeleteWhat a vibrant colour so spring like and fresh. Wishing even more that our local craft heaven was open as my mouth is watering and my birthday/Christmas money is burning a hole in my pocket, it needs spending sooon !
Santa left me Oslo but I really need the border and tag dies to go with. Will just have to wait a while longer I suppose.
Cameeli you stay on that warm fluffy cloud 9 for as long as you want, does it matter that you look like the cat that got the cream ? Nope, so drink in all the joy your new little Prince gives for as long as you want. Enjoy this precious new family member Cam.
Love to all my friends especially those that are unwell lonely and sad.
Love you.
Lancashire Steph xx
Good morning Sue and everyone

Have a good day everyone

Well done Sue
Hi Sue, what a lovely card, the ribbon is so luxurious and a wonderful shade of green. What wins it for me though is the beautiful embossing you're used this time. That's another folder to go on my list :). As always, thanks for sharing with us. I'm off to watch the video now. x
ReplyDeleteLovely. Trying to decide whether to buy American or Scandinavian first.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card, Sue and I hope I can watch the video tonight whilst my better half makes the dinner! I love when you use green as it always looks so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteRachel x
Absolutely gorgous! I love the intricate diecut and the adorable green bow!
ReplyDeleteHi Sue My Dear Friend,

ReplyDeletea beautiful card and the video was superb
ReplyDeletehugs to all Johanna
Hi Sue,
ReplyDeleteReally enjoyed the first video of 2015, looking forward to seeing many more. You make it look so easy, I have tried the ruffled ribbon technique and mine just looked a mess, cockeyed, uneven and just not right. Might give it another go though because it looked fabulous on your card, which was gorgeous as ever. Wish I could afford reels of seam binding in all the various colours, but at £20 a reel, I always buy off white and have to dye it myself, I prefer to save my pennies to buy more of your fabulous dies!!
Love and hugs for all
Saba
Hello Sue and all
ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely card, the inking really ties it all together. Great techniques. Thank you for sharing.
Best wishes
Nice card! I wouldn't have thought to use green, but I like it. Simple yet effective. I also enjoyed the video. I love your messy bows, but don't know where to get that seam binding you are always talking about. I started watching Create and Craft TV now that it is on here- when are you going to be on? I know you told us already, but I forgot. Gail
ReplyDeleteHi Sue
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful card to start your first Video of 2015. Love the colours and dies. Wish i could make a card as quick as you can on your videos.
Take care Sue

What LOVELY news Cameeli. Your life will become a whole new book of memories, enjoy every bit, like our children grandchildren grow up quick too. Hark at me! mine is still wishful thinking. But I'm sat here with camera, pen & memory book poised. Congratulations Cameeli and to the brand new parents. XX

This is one of my favourite cards, think I saw it at some point last year. It hits my top five as its green and white - my top two all time favourite colours. Love the whole effect.
ReplyDeleteLovely card but, as Maggie says - better without the bow ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad I'm not alone.....!
Love this card, got the embossing folder for Christmas so will have to give it a go!!
ReplyDeleteHi Sue,
ReplyDeleteGreat video - so nice to have them back! Great start to the year. Love the card and even the green - I too had green school uniform for around 12 years! It kind of puts you off a colour!
I'm so excited as I have mastered Pinterest! I know, I know it's not difficult but it was to me! I did it bu myself as well as I kept forgetting to ask my grandaughters to help me!
I've got a Sue File!
Love to everyone,
I'll have calmed down by tomorrow!
