Wednesday Weekly Card Giveaway
Hi there my crafty friends! It seems like forever since my last card giveaway so I hope you like this one. I started with a piece of coconut white card and used the Santorini decorative insert without the cutting edge in the top of the card. I cut a strip of card about an inch and a half wide and used the Scored Lines embossing folder on it for the bottom part of my channel card. I added mounting foam to both pieces for dimension and added them to a piece of bluish purplish card (from my stash), leaving about an inch gap for my channel. Next I cut three of the Splendid Swirls in white and attached them across my channel opening, slightly overlapping them. I stamped my sentiment and cut it out with the inside die from the Kefalonia set. I used Shaded Lilac ink on it before removing it from the die. I seated it on to a mat that was first cut out with shape from the Kefalonia and then I used the next die down in the set to emboss the inner detail to it. I added them both in the centre with mounting foam. I completed the card with a couple of pearl corners as embellishments, then added my usual matting and layering with piercing of course!. The finished dimensions are 7" x 8 3/4" in size. If you would like to be entered in the drawing to win this card, just leave me a comment. The winner will be posted on Saturday's blog post. Don't forget too that Friday will be the die winners announced, so lots of reasons to pop by the blog! All for5 now, Sue x

Good morning Sue & all...I haven't been commenting on your blog for very long...but there are always so many reasons to come back every day... Firstly to see your card & die designs which are always so consistently STYLISH, SOPHISTICATED, REFINED, TASTEFUL & above all SUPERIOR (now try & get through the door...LOL...No Seriously Sue you sincerely deserve all the above comments and much, much more x). Secondly I find your videos so moving and Inspiring...simply because you are so gifted and take much of your precious time to record & share them. Thirdly I love to read the positive and inspiring comments from your avid followers...I'm sure that fills your heart to the brim knowing so many care about and appreciate what you do for them. Perhaps I can throw in a fourth, but it is certainly least important than the first, second and third ,I too would also love the chance to win a die or card but as "craftysuetoo" so rightly expressed "you do a Giveaway every day" with your generosity...So I will close this with grateful thanks for sharing yet another stunning card with...there isn't anything I do not like about it...Have a great day (albeit very gusty)Sue and to all...Love Beth B x x x
I saw you do this one on C&C and liked it Thanks for giving the dimensions It will help (me anyway) to get proportions of channel better etc That's a pretty colour in your stash too
Morning Sue, A gorgeous card, I'm so loving the scored lines embossing folder, a definite 'must have' for me, because I love the effect, and these gorgeous dies, really gorgeous. Lots of love from Patricia xx
HI sue Such a clean looking card one I would be drawn to in a shop the Greek dies used here are simply stunning- the scoring technique is so easy to do yet so very effective
A very pretty card , I do like channel cards and this one with the Lines EF ( which I have and love) is just wonderful ! Thanks Myra I did enjoy the golf ( although I didn't play that well) but at least we were off the course before the rain came on! Love and hugs to all xo
Hi Sue - I loved this card when I first saw it aired and the Santorini dies are beautiful. I love the channel effect with the scoring and I must remember to make more of this style in the future as it's so effective. Thank you Sue, sending best wishes, YvonneMayxx
Hi Sue A beautiful card today. I just love this card. I've done the scoring on a card, but I've not made a channel card. Anyone would be over the moon at winning this card, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
Good Morning Sue, todays card is vey pretty I particlarly like how you have used the die without the cutting edge as a frame it really sets off the focal point. Edwina
My favourite colour Sue this is a lovely design you are so creative. I sit in my craft room and stare at a piece of card for ages before I come up with something wish I could be as talented as you. Love yvonne bennett xx
Hi Sue. Hope you are well and Jill is in good health and happy with having her girl with her. What can I say, this card is stunning, so fresh looking. Every line is perfect, how do I know ? I won this on one of the POTD show's lol it now sits on my fire place. After I was SO very lucky to receive it I ordered the mauve card that day,its such a beautiful shade. So Sue please do not enter me into the draw for this card as Id love for someone else to see just how wonderful and perfect your cards are outside of blog world. Good luck everyone. BETH, you sais it all. Have a lovely day everyone and hope your weather is better than it is in grey cold and windy Lancashire. Love to all. Lancashire Steph xx
Nice card, Sue, great composition. Have the EF and the swirls so could try something similar. Like Jan M, don't often cut into the card and should really do it more, great effect.

Hello Sue, and all the ladies, Another beautiful card from you. The colours, design and additional elements, you must get sick of us saying the same thing, but they really are all beautiful. Alimecca, have you got your new ring yet. Beth, you say it for us all. Love to all, keep well. Maureen xx
Morning Sue, love the colours on today's card, so fresh, the card is lovely. I think I need to get the swirls, they are a perfect finishing touch. Take care, Jess x
Hi Sue I love everything about this card, the colour, the fact it's a channel and the dies you've used, it's just beautiful and I've pinned as always. My new dies arrived yesterday and I can't wait to get crafting with Toronto, petite arched adornment and happy birthday, hopefully this afternoon or tomorrow Hugs and best wishes everyone Pat
Hi Sue, really lovely card today... The bluish purple card reminded me of a darker version of your Periwinkle cardstock. Any chance of sourcing it...? Thank for yet another gem! Hugs, Karen x
Good morning Sue and fellow Wilsonettes, This is a beautiful card Sue and the lilac that you have edged the sentiment with is a lovely compliment to the blue/lilac that you have mounted it onto and the background colour. Against the white it makes it a stunning card to look at. Now is the wonder if i can use one of my dies that i have to do this very pretty card. Thank you Sue for the inspiration that you keep coming up with. xx Waiting in for someone coming and they don't turn up at the time they said is fustrating. I texted beloved daughter to come along and sit here while i went down to mums and she hasn't even bothered texting back. Now it was her that arranged this for today and knew that i had a few things to do down there for the woman coming and she is not bothering her wee shirt tail. You know sometimes i could go mad at her as she thinks she is the only one that is going through it the now with her pregnancy ( i wish she had been as uncomplicated and no issues when i was carrying her as this wee fella she is carrying has been then i might not have been in and out of the hospital staying, or seeing the heart specialist because of my ticker)oooo sometimes my daughter doesn't know just how well off she is. ANyway now that i have got that off my chest i shall leave you all until tomorrow and we will see what this lady says. Sending hugs to all my Angels both on blog and not, and hope that those that can't make it the now are getting better and stronger by the day. Love and crafty hugs Norah (glenochil)
Good morning Sue and crafty ladies from a very wet and windy Bolton. Sue this card is absolutely stunning, love everything about it. The insert dies are so effective when left in the card without using the cutting edge. Don't have the Santorini(on my very extensive list!)but will try this with another set. Always love your channel cards and the colours on this one are lovely. A fab card all round. Blessings all - Deb C xx
Hi Sue From a very blustery Norfolk. Love this card, it's everything I like. Definitely be doing this one, hope you don't mind! Lol Hoping you're keeping well. Zena xx
Hello Sue. What a gentle, sophisticated card. So pretty. Still can't get over how generous you are to give away your precious work! xx Maggie (better without a bow)
Morning Sue Perfection - yet again. I love the colours. I love the effect that you get when using the dies without the cutting edge. It adds such a special touch. Another beauty to inspire and for me to recreate. Crafty hugs Yvonne x
Hi Sue, A Lovely, Simple card which could be used for many occasions. I am still trying to master the paper pearcing. Would be thrilled to win this card. Margaret xxx
No, 'Thankyou' Sue for yet another splendid chance to win one of your stunning works of art. I am sure that I am not alone in my desperation to win one of your creations-personally, I have a patch of wall above my craft desk begging to be adorned by a framed Sue original....I can only live in hope! As usual, today's card showcases your talents to a tee. I love the colour choice and the flourishes are simply Devine . I haven't used my Greek Collection yet, but today's card has given me plenty of inspiration- the Kefalonia die seems to be a current favourite and I can see why. Hope the Florida weather is kinder than rain sodden Stirling, still, if I wanted sunshine I wouldn't be living in Scotland, beautiful though it may be!:-)
Hi Sue What another beautiful card today, this die is beautiful and the colour is gorgeous. One day it will be my name that comes up but until them I admire your cards every day, they give us all such inspiration. Hope you have a wonderful day with your mum in sunny Florida , it's blowing a gale her and raining again! Take care love Diane G xxx
Lovely card. You can't beat a Channel Card The background colour is lovely and really brings out the detail in the Santorini die and the Splendid Swirls. Thanks for sharing.
Hello Sue, What a pretty card, it looks so clean and fresh. Love the colour of your card. Who would NOT want to go this stunning creation, I would certainly love to put my name forward, this would have pride of place in my craft room . Good luck to all of you ladies whoever wins it enjoy LOL,

Hi sue Beutiful card. I'll need to get that embossing folder that does those score lines. Ill need to get some of those pearl corners too they are so pretty xx

Hugs and best wishes everyone

Sorry pressed wrong button, not anonymous just me, Jess x
ReplyDeleteHi Sue, really lovely card today...
ReplyDeleteThe bluish purple card reminded me of a darker version of your Periwinkle cardstock. Any chance of sourcing it...? Thank for yet another gem! Hugs, Karen x
Just love that lilac card.
ReplyDeleteGood morning Sue and fellow Wilsonettes,
ReplyDeleteThis is a beautiful card Sue and the lilac that you have edged the sentiment with is a lovely compliment to the blue/lilac that you have mounted it onto and the background colour. Against the white it makes it a stunning card to look at. Now is the wonder if i can use one of my dies that i have to do this very pretty card. Thank you Sue for the inspiration that you keep coming up with. xx
Waiting in for someone coming and they don't turn up at the time they said is fustrating. I texted beloved daughter to come along and sit here while i went down to mums and she hasn't even bothered texting back. Now it was her that arranged this for today and knew that i had a few things to do down there for the woman coming and she is not bothering her wee shirt tail. You know sometimes i could go mad at her as she thinks she is the only one that is going through it the now with her pregnancy ( i wish she had been as uncomplicated and no issues when i was carrying her as this wee fella she is carrying has been then i might not have been in and out of the hospital staying, or seeing the heart specialist because of my ticker)oooo sometimes my daughter doesn't know just how well off she is.
ANyway now that i have got that off my chest i shall leave you all until tomorrow and we will see what this lady says. Sending hugs to all my Angels both on blog and not, and hope that those that can't make it the now are getting better and stronger by the day.
Love and crafty hugs

Good morning Sue,

Good morning Sue and crafty ladies from a very wet and windy Bolton.
ReplyDeleteSue this card is absolutely stunning, love everything about it. The insert dies are so effective when left in the card without using the cutting edge. Don't have the Santorini(on my very extensive list!)but will try this with another set. Always love your channel cards and the colours on this one are lovely.
A fab card all round.

Hiya Sue and all Wilsonettes,
ReplyDeleteNo, 'Thankyou' Sue for yet another splendid chance to win one of your stunning works of art.
I am sure that I am not alone in my desperation to win one of your creations-personally, I have a patch of wall above my craft desk begging to be adorned by a framed Sue original....I can only live in hope!
As usual, today's card showcases your talents to a tee. I love the colour choice and the flourishes are simply Devine . I haven't used my Greek Collection yet, but today's card has given me plenty of inspiration- the Kefalonia die seems to be a current favourite and I can see why.
Hope the Florida weather is kinder than rain sodden Stirling, still, if I wanted sunshine I wouldn't be living in Scotland, beautiful though it may be!:-)
Crafty hugs,

ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous card again with your lovely dies doing all the hard work. It would appear that most of us forget about how effective just embossing looks. I just need to get into the habit of trying something different. Anniekk xxx
ReplyDeleteHello Sue,
ReplyDeleteAnother beautiful card today. I really like the way your channel cards add interest and also bring out the background colour without detracting from the focal element.
Good luck to everyone in the draw.
