Open Weave background
Hi crafters! Today's video card shows you another way in which to use the Striped weaving die to create a slightly different sort of look for your background. This die is just so versatile! Don't forget you can also achieve a beautiful tight weave for your backgrounds with it as well.
The finished dimensions are 6 1/2" x 7 3/4" in size. All for now, Sue x
Morning Sue. Brilliant card just right for a male as well, not a flower or bow in sight LOL. Thank you very much. Beautiful morning here. Have a great day all, take care Kitty. great video too.
Hello Sue and all very pretty card today but so versatile too. The gold is very effective and rich looking. Feeling winter here today on N.S.W coast, very cool with showers, I should be crafting. It is nice to hear you are enjoying nice days Muriel x
Wonderfully elegant card today, Sue, never would have thought of using a die for letterpressing, and so effective. Thanks for brilliant video, always great to see you and learn new techniques too. Win win again!!
Will watch video when my iPod has charged...argh! Even though you've used gold I love the softness of this gold and putting the sentiment onto vellum is a lovely idea
Morning Sue.WOW Another stunning card. Could be used for the guy's in our live's and for many occasion's. Love the letterpress technique. Don't have the weaving die's yet but they are on my list which just seem's to get bigger every day lol. Take care everyone. We had a beautiful day yesterday in Co/Durham and it's looking like it's going to be again today. Best Wishes. Denise T x
Good morning Sue today's card is gorgeous I love the dies. The woven background is beautiful. I am looking forward to watching the video later when I get back from work. Have a great day today. Hugs Jackie
Goog morning Sue Well! You certainly had me fooled this morning, I thought it was a stamp that you had used not the die lol. Fabulous card and with the video's I always learn something from them. I really enjoy using your weaving dies, there are a few combinations you can do plus I find it very therapeutic. Cosmic shimmer glue is the only glue that I have found suitable to use with vellum (used sparingly). Today's card is gorgeous thank you for sharing. Hugs x Heather T
A lovely sunny morning here in the North West, thank you Sue for another fabulous tutorial, love how you gave done the letter pressing it looks fabulous, must try this! The way you have used the weaving dies is so different and gives an completely different look to the card. Another die to go on the list, lol. Have a great day everyone. Linda.
Hi Sue. Now I have my laptop back I can get my daily "fix" of your beautiful cards, boy do I miss not seeing what you have to share with us each morning, and I only missed yesterday's, lol! A lovely woven card today, the more I see of these dies the more I love them : ) Sending my daily hugs for everyone. Take care xx
Good morning Sue and everyone Lovely card and my goodness you have some patience trying to line up the weaving to make it look straight. Have a great day. Ang x
Morning Sue You have just changed and sold me on your weaving dies. When you launched them I just could not bring myself to like the look or think of how to use them but this morning's video has changed all that. They have certainly made today's gift jump and shine and what a change to see a different background. I also have never letter pressed the dies before either so you have just given me a morning's activity in trying my hand at this.
To all in pain and suffering today I hope your day gets better. To everyone please take care and stay safe. See you tomorrow. Janaet x
Hi Sue & Wilsonettes...what an absolutely stunning card.
I learnt letter pressing with Julia at my 1st workshop & it really is great fun...especially when you see it come together when using the heat gun...thanks for the tip on using no tape...although John Lockwood showed me a fantastic tip of using a clean erasure to rub off any residue from sticky tape on your card when using it to hold any cutting die in place...really does work...
I haven't yet purchased the weaving dies as I am trying to complete my other die sets I started to collect but after watching your video & seeing how easy & fun it is to do they will definitely be on my to purchase list.
Love the fabulous Vellum used for the sentiment & to see the weave come through this is a wonderful idea...I will try this...THANK YOU Sue for your wonderful generosity in sharing a fantastic video and a beautiful stunning card...especially love the Bright Gold emboss powder, it certainly gives the card a regal look.
I would like to thank Sandy G; Lynda's Craft; Maria Adler for your very kind, lovely comments reference to my being poorly x x x
I would also like to thank Wheely Bad...it was lovely of you to wish me well when you yourself are going through the mill...Hugs & smiles to you & all the best for the dentist today x x x
Theresa W...sorry to hear your operation was more than anticipated but sincerely hope that each day will see you feeling better & much improved x x x
To Sue & your family & to all Wilsonettes, especially to those who need a little extra I send you ((((hugs & Smiles)))& wishing you a lovely day. Take care Love Beth B x x x
Good morning Sue, the only way to describe this card is Opulence!!! The sun is shining here today just like your truly amazing gift for us. Thanks for your tutorials they are inspiring!!! Have a good one!!! Loopy Lynda xxx
Hi Sue, Gorgeous card today, love the vellum sentiment. I have recently tried letter pressing and loved the finished result. Love Janet x from Wakefield
So pretty! I've never used a die as a letterpress and now I want to and with your easy to follow instructions, I think I can! It's past my bedtime and I have to go to work in a few hours or I would go try right now. Oh well, I've something fun to look forward to! I'm so impressed with everything you do. Many thanks :o)
Good Morning Sue, Another stunning card, I really don't know where you get your ideas from, without your inspiration I think I would be at a loss what to do. These dies are all on my wish list so I will have to wait a little longer to try this card. Have a great day Maggie
Theresa says Hi sue and the fabulous warm caring wilsonettes x Thankyou all for your wishes and hugs its very much appreciated. You bought a tear to my eyes with your kindness xxx I am lucky in that I know I will recover just take a bit longer x I was only thinking last night that I could ask hubby to cut some card with the weaving die and do some today and there is this beautiful card today x had planned to master letterpressing this week with the fantastic tips I've kindly been given x maybe wait a few days more x Thanks again everyone and thankyou sue for your inspiring work everyday x Theresa w xxx
Love the card Sue, and the weaving technique is great. Would it be possible to use it and glue it to a same or similar coloured card, then cut out with a die the shape of a basket to contain some of your gorgeous flowers ? Thank you fore the inspiration. Xx
Hi Sue. What a beautiful rich expensive looking card today. Im not a very 'clever' crafter and will own up and say Ive never had much luck with trying letter pressing on folder to card, but surely even I could letter press from die to card ? How difficult can that be ? Lol a technique I have to try along with the texture paste I bought yesterday : ) now that will be disasterous fun I feel lol all I need now is one of Mr Lancashire grouting tools as our favourite shop owner had sold her last wotsit ! And if I get all flustered and in a mess I have two lovely ladies to blame lol Sue and Tina E you are both so impressionable but oh so inspirational too, cant wait to play though I must admit : ) To those that are not so good today, look forward, tomorrow will be a better day. Thinking of our beautiful Sam - stop - dont put yourself down beautiful lady. Whatever you have planned today Sue have a good one full of happiness and fun. Hope your day goes well barbie. Hugs. Lancashire Steph xxx ; )

Morning Sue, what a lovely rich card today. and a really great video everything so clearly explained. I didn't realise there were so many ways you could use the weaving dies. Have moved them up the wish list. Wendyxx
Good morning Sue, yet another stunning card this morning! Haven't used my weaving dies for some time - must get back to them - love the use of the vellum too! Janette x
Hi Sue, a really interesting card and I thought at first that you had been stamping but a quick glance through the comments tells me otherwise. I am looking forward to watching the video later on to see just how you achieved it. Frances
Good morning Sue, Thank you for another inspirational video and truly beautiful card. Really must have a go at letter pressing and embossing, it looks very effective. Thank you as well for the tip about not taping down the die as well.
A lovely card Sue, but I know I won't have the patience to do it! I'm off to make my usual cuppa and watch the video, you never know, once I've seen you do it I might change my mind. :)
This is such a striking card. I think it is really useful to see different ways to use the weaving dies. This is another card I think would be great as a male card. Thanks for sharing.
Good morning Sue and everyone What a delightful card love the colours too, thank you for taking the time to make another great video. Hugs Margaret corgi owner
Watched the video and it was the first time I had seen these weaving dies in action, they are fabulous. Added these to my ever growing wish list :) Yet another fabulous card today Sue. Lorraine
Happy video day everyone! Thank The Lord for tablets cos I will be able to enjoy today's demo outside in the glorious sunshine-it was hotter here yesterday than Portugal can you believe!!??!? Just some polishing to get out of the way firstly since our glass table tops arrived earlier this morning-a purchase to deter my little Bengal from marking our newly varnished table and desk again, he loves nothing more than watching the world pass by whilst sprawled over them. The weaving dies are top of my wish list, it looks quite therapeutic assembling this background and the results are simply stunning. I just received my noble square and rectangle dies so all I need now are the glorious weaving dies to complement them. Thankyou for providing us with a brilliant demo of the technique, it is always easier to understand the gist of a technique after watching you 'weave' your magic Sue. Hope everyone is enjoying some of this glorious weather, enjoy.
Hello Sue. Time after time you amaze me. I don't think you sleep just spend your nights coming up with wonderful ideas. Thank you for this. Definitely one to try. xx Maggie (better without a bow)
Hi Sue. A really lovely card. I have both weaving dies but got into such a mess with them that I gave up and have not used them since. I may give them another try. Regards, Evis M.
A fabulous card. Not watched the video, will do later.
I too was not sure about the weaving dies, mainly as I loved so many others! However, the more I see cards using them, the more I like them. I always love the letter pressing technique too.

Oh, the weaving die/s make such an organic look to the cards. I recently used the velium in a similar method, and I do like the look. I will try the letterpress technique next. Thank you so much for the video.
Great idea, and has quite a masculine feel Sue. Will have to watch the youtube later, as I'm off to do some gardening whilst the sun is shining! Susan x
Really enjoyed your video today. As I have the Adorned Rectangle die, I am going to have a try at the letter press technique. The weaving die is another die on my(Want list) as you say, it makes a lovely background. Regards Joan
Hi Sue, beautiful card today, love the way the embossing and velum looks over the weave in the centre. Really must pluck up the courage to try letterpressing too! Off to watch demo now :) Blessings all - Deb C xx
Love the weaving dies. They were the first ones of the new launch that I wanted and bought. Think this card is fab and without watching the video looks like it also has the noble die as well - my second choice purchase. Can see this easily as a masculine card and also with various sentiments. Just love it - yet again
Hi sue. Great card today. Love everything. Nice touch with the velum I have the stuff but never seem to use it lol. Kinda like the rest of my stuff. Really need to use it and stop buying stuff. It's an obsession lol x

Lol a technique I have to try along with the texture paste I bought yesterday : ) now that will be disasterous fun I feel lol all I need now is one of Mr Lancashire grouting tools as our favourite shop owner had sold her last wotsit ! And if I get all flustered and in a mess I have two lovely ladies to blame lol Sue and Tina E you are both so impressionable but oh so inspirational too, cant wait to play though I must admit : )

ReplyDeleteHi Sue
ReplyDeleteInteresting card never weaved with paper before may give it a go.
Hi Sue.
ReplyDeleteA really lovely card.
I have both weaving dies but got into such a mess with them that I gave up and have not used them since.
I may give them another try.
Regards,
Evis M.
Hi Sue and everyone
ReplyDeleteA fabulous card. Not watched the video, will do later.
I too was not sure about the weaving dies, mainly as I loved so many others! However, the more I see cards using them, the more I like them. I always love the letter pressing technique too.
Love Helen xxx

Love the weaving dies. They were the first ones of the new launch that I wanted and bought. Think this card is fab and without watching the video looks like it also has the noble die as well - my second choice purchase. Can see this easily as a masculine card and also with various sentiments. Just love it - yet again
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card - beautiful colours - love the velum sentiment too - fab xx GailT xx
