Hi there crafters! I found this little gem in one of my old folder last week when I was looking around for the cards to post on my favourites of 2014. I didn't even realise that I had missed posting it last year! I think I was holding on to it for an autumn post because of the colours, but I think I will slip it in here now before I forget it for another year! This card uses my Lattice Heart Striplet from my first die release. Starting with a piece of Ginger card, I cut the insert twice, once on each side of the card. I wrapped a piece of off white silky crush ribbon around the bottom of the card and taped the ends to the back. I added mounting foam to the back of the card and raised it over a piece of milk coloured card for dimension. Next I used the striplet with the outside cutting edge on a piece of milk card. I cut a coordinating backing piece for it out of ginger card and glued the two pieces together. I added foam to the back and mounted it in the centre of the two striplet insert cut outs. I made a flower out of the Heartfelt Aster dies and the ginger card. I added some leaves out of the set too. I seated the flower on a silky crush double bow with some baby's breath and a cream jute bow. I stamped my sentiment and cut it into a small tag , tucking the end under the flower. I edged it with some gold ink. I finished the card with a double milk mat with a pierced inner layer and some cream flatback pearls. I hope you like it! The finished dimensions are 8" x 8 1/4" in size. All for now, Sue x
Love it! Love it! Love it!

ReplyDeleteHi Sue, Love this one, the colours are beautiful, and the Astor , leaves and embellishments are fabulous! Linda.
ReplyDeleteIt´s just gorgeous Sue, and very delicate in these colors here. Just beautiful work as always hun.
ReplyDeletemorning Sue
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful way to start the day. A most gorgeous bouquet sat on Sue Wilson's dies. (nearly forgot the grammar there)lol. I love the colours you chose for today's gift and can see them used throughout the year not only for Autumn. I already feel spoilt with your gifts and we're only just into the new year!
Our visit to market yesterday was lovely despite there only being a handful of stalls (I do not blame the stall holders as in the temperature it was and then icy rain I wouldn't be stood out in the open). It was quiet in the cafe too - only eight in number - but the atmosphere was good and the chatter loud. Of course we had to call at the pastry shop on our way back to the car and so last night's meal was paella with large crevette and finishing off with pastries - Raspberry and Citron mousse sat on a layer of raspberry sponge soaked in some sort of spirit topped off with a small piece of dark chocolate. Mr E chose a triple layer of dark and milk chocolate mousse on a praline base. Sorry if you cannot cope with such richness at this time of the morning but I forgot to ask you to shut your eyes for a time.lol
Down to earth today - some housework has to be done and then hopefully a little crafting to finish off the day. I hope you all have a good start to the week-end and that any arrangements made go off without a hitch.
Cameeli - not long now before your new grandchild arrives. Hope you can keep calm.
Norah - hope you're OK after yesterday. I'm with you always.
Sandra - if your lovely daughters are playing fb this week-end I hope the conditions are not too bad and that you stay inside where it's warm and dry.
Steph - if you have a fair tomorrow I'm hoping that you will have many customers spending their Christmas monies.
To all in pain/suffering I hope you feel better soon.
To everyone please take care and stay safe. See you tomorrow.

Morning Sue, a beautiful card have

ReplyDeleteNow Sue, what can I say about our surprise second card. A striplet card, I just love my striplets, you can't go wrong they make a card. I have used mine so much to the point I think people who look at my blog go " oh no not another striplet card" but I do love them. It looks like daughter wants them used on her wedding invites.
ReplyDeleteI think I will have to look at useing the few sheet of ginger card stock I have, I do tend to pass it over but on seeing this besuty that might just have to change. As you can tell I think this is gorgeous. Hazel x
Love the card Sue, just gorgeous

When I caught a gimps of the Thanks card from the top of the card, I thought I wasn't going to like it the card colour put me off as I scrolled down and saw the flower it totally changed the balance of the card, I don't know why I do like it the flower sets it off a treat.
ReplyDeleteJane xx
This would make a lovely wedding card by changing the colour to suit.

ReplyDeleteMorning Sue, what a treat, today's card iris lovely, I have this striplet die and use it often, but with the ginger card it really looks so different, I need to go back and see if there is another post for today, as I only have the striplet one!
ReplyDeleteJanet I love how you describe your pastries to us, really makes my mouth water, even this early in the morning.
Well, Christmas tree and decor are going back in their boxes today, the house looks so bare when they are packed away, so will be busy most of the day.

ReplyDeleteAs you say, you were keeping this one for the Autumn posts, but I'm glad you overlooked it til now. It's simply gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteAutumn is my favourite time of the year, I don't think you can beat all the glowing golds, fiery reds, the cool russets and bright ambers. Nature's jewel colours in all their glory!
My mouth was watering over your description of your pastries Janet.Can almost taste them.
Hugs to all that are in pain or feeling under the weather.

Morning Sue, Pam and all Wilsonettes, another gorgeous card today, I love the aster die for the flowers and the colours you have used match so well. Another one for me to try.
ReplyDeleteHad a really bad day yesterday, my eldest son had to have his pet dog China put to sleep, she was only 4 and had kidney failure, he is beside himself with grief at the moment so I don't think I even commented on yesterdays post, I will catch up though. Am going round to him again today, he lives on his own and has learning difficulties so it is very hard for him to understand.
Stay safe, healthy and happy everyone, hugs June Smith xxx
So sorry about your sons dog anyone who has a pet and the loss is unbearable I'll pray for him xxxx June
DeleteYour poor son, I will be thinking of him x
DeleteGood morning Sue,
ReplyDeleteSuch a gorgeous card and I really like this colour combination. The comination of your so versatile striplet die and that lovely Aster flower die work so well.

Hi Sue, another beauty. I love the ginger colour and the flower is gorgeous. This is the one striplet that I don't have but I am sure the composition will work with one of the others. Suitable for lots of occasions and I can also see it in other colours.
ReplyDeleteJune, so sorry your son's dog had to be put to sleep. It is hard enough losing a pet when we understand so I know he will be feeling dreadful. I think lots of mum cuddles will be required. Hugs to you both.

Morning Sue, this card with the flower is great, although when I first looked at it I thought the flower was a pine cone - which would have been fab too! Craftihappiness and love to everyone from Macky
ReplyDeleteSuch an elegant card Sue. I love your striplets and use them often - now I have a new way of using them!! Your flower and baby's breath look beautiful together. Pat x

ReplyDeleteMorning Sue.
ReplyDeleteWhilst ginger isn't a colour I would turn to I think it looks fab on this card. Using a different colour I think this would make a gorgeous wedding card too.
Yesterdays's card was also a stunner.

Hi Sue, Happy New Year! Love the card as usual love the flower x
ReplyDeleteHi Sue, a beautiful card.
ReplyDeleteStunning, amazing card and not colours I would think to use.

Take care
Claire
Hi Sue, a beautiful card. The gorgeous flower and ribbon go beautifully with the striplet die.
ReplyDeleteOOOoohhhh!!! I haven't words... Too gorgous!!
ReplyDeleteHi there Sue and all lovely Wilsonettes.
ReplyDeleteIt may be a dull grey day in Lancs but you sure do know how to brighten up winter Sue. I love these colour's and at last I can say I have that striplet : ) and I hope to be able to say that more often as the year goes on, at least I'll try ! Well Ive had my first (of many) numpty moments of 2015 !! So yesterday I was cutting the daisy dies - both open and closed petals, trying to get a few done before going to get monthly bloods done, eventually I get back and continue cutting, but where is my smallest closed petal die ? I emptied my basket incase it was still in the card - nope, looked under my cutting machine, nope, kitchen, bedroom, lounge, even the loo - nope... Back into my paper bin and this time I turned it out onto the floor (baring in mind it had zillions of poked out paper/card etc) note to self 'empty more often' where is that bloomin petal die (no pun intended ) as it wasn't the real word I used... Oops.
Since being diagnosed with Crohns Ive lost some weight so my clothes hang, so turn up my jeans so I dont trip up, sew a hem ? Dont be daft, too much crafting to do, who wastes valuable time hemming ? So I thought Id have a peep at my folded hemmed jeans, yup, there she was, my little closed petal daisy die laughing up at me snuggled in the hem (if I didnt know better Id say those pesky flakes had some conspiracy and bribed my die to help send me gaga) !! So that was my first 'moment ' of the year !
So now Im sending all my love and thoughts to anyone that's having a really bad day for whatever reason, please take a hug or two.
No market today or tomorrow and may not do it at all this month as last year I spent more on the table than was sold due to weather and lack of people at the market, Im really undecided what is the best thing to do.
Janet please keep my imagination going with your French tails I do enjoy reading about your days. And I could eat those naughty pastries and still look like a stick insect LOL so bring em on gal : )
June... im SO sad for your son, been there myself and still cant talk about it or come to terms, so go and give mummy hugs (and mine too)
Love to all.
Lancashire Steph xxx
Yes, it could be seasonal, for autumn, but also great for a man, I think.
ReplyDeletevery pretty autumnal card Sue; love the die cuts.
ReplyDeleteWow Sue, what a gorgeous card, glad you found it in your folder. The first picture shows the flower to be darker than the ginger card and I like that even better! The flower/baby's breath/jute makes me think immediately of "wedding", don't ask me why. But all in white it would make such a beautiful wedding card!
ReplyDeleteHugs, Rose
Morning Sue.
ReplyDeleteReally pretty card and loving The flower. Nice colours too!!

ReplyDeletethis is definitely not one to be forgotten, it's absolutely stunning. The colours, ribbon and flowers. Love it all, so much so I think I'm going to have a go at this. I don't have an aster die but think I might be able to achieve something similar with your daisy die. Fingers crossed anyway.
Hope you all enjoy your weekend

ReplyDeleteHi Sue,
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card - beautiful die! One of my favourites but with your dies I have lots of favourites. Lol! Ginger is not a colour I would reach for normally but then I think we can get in a rut. So will definitely try to think outside the box with colours too! Thanks Sue for two lovely cards today.
Steph - you did make me laugh . Thank you! Sorry you had a mess to clear up but at least you found your little flower. Sun has come out here now but it's very cold - keep warm!
Jess - so very sorry to read about your son's dog. Always hard to lose a pet but if you don't fully understand it must be a lot worse! Definitely needs Mum! Sending hugs to you both.
Janet - having been away for three days reading about lovely pastries is ok - eating them is not! Love to hear about them ! x
Norah - do hope you are feeling even a little bit better. Take care - miss you - sending love. x

ReplyDeleteHello Sue. What a smashing card - far too good to miss. The flower is scrumptious and looks like it should be made of felt and adorning a jacket. Just lovely. xx Maggie (better without a bow)
ReplyDeleteJune S -
ReplyDeleteSo sorry about your son and his lovely dog China - what an awful blow for him and such a young dog, too. Been there many times with much-loved pets and had an upset last night with my lovely old cat Molly 2 having a major fit. Vet said to keep a watch and no treatment needed - so fingers crossed it's just a one-off.

This is such a beautiful card, I love the colours. I thought it was a bought flower until I read your description, wow it is gorgeous. xx
ReplyDeleteHi Sue, from a wet and very windy Cornwall :). I love the ginger card, what an unusual colour. The flower is to die for and looks great in the same colour as the backing card. I'm glad it didn't stay 'lost' in a folder for too long. As always, thanks so much for sharing with us. x
ReplyDeleteAnother pretty card. Love what you have done with the striplet die. The flower and ribbons are gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteHi Sue and everyone! Two beautiful cards Sue.I like the striplet die but not sure about the ginger card.The flowers are lovely.
ReplyDeleteJanet-back to the lovely pastries again,they do sound nice :-)
Oh Steph=so glad you found the little petal die. It's funny how these things have a tendency to hide away in the most peculiar places.:-)
June S- so sorry to hear about Chin. Always sad when a pet has to be put to sleep and must be harder maybe for your son.Lots of hugs!
"P in Wales- hope your cat be ok,hugs.
To our missing ladies, take care and warm hugs to you and to everyone else <3

ReplyDeleteHi Sue
ReplyDeleteYou must have overlooked this especially for a grey dayl like this, to bring warmth and a smile to us all. I have that striplet die, I need them all really as they're such fun! Plus I've been waiting for an excuse to try that ginger card! Mums birthday in 2 weeks so maybe I'll try it.
Janet Ecco, my mouth is watering after reading about those pastries. A visit to the Christmas biscuits is in order.
Another day of being mostly asleep. Supposed to go to a family gathering tomorrow and not sure I'll make it. Will try though, even if for an hour. House is semi accessible but people will have to move cars to make space to the door. Haven't seen some of them for ages and I hate the questions, I have to try to be honest without worrying them and it's hard to know what to say. I might not be able to comment tomorrow if we do go so if I do miss out I want you all to-
Stay warm, stay safe and do a bit of crafting for me!
Have those darn forms to complete and sent next week, most of which is printing off 'evidence', will be hard if I'm still sleeping 18 hrs a day! No crafts til it's done. That's some motivation...

ReplyDeleteJust wanted to say thanks Sue and the rest of the CE (particraft) staff who toil away all year giving us great ideas with the dies and stamps and so on. Keep up the good work, especially with the video tuts.
