Hello my crafty friends! The weeks are counting down and Christmas will be here before we know it! The first card showcased is a reverse letterpress technique. I started with a piece of coconut white card and cut four Snowflake borders and glued them across the card. Next I
used the Deboss Snowflake outer die to cut an aperture in the centre of the card through the borders. I selected French Navy card and cut the Deboss Snowflake die using the outer and deboss die with the centre cutting die as well. Once cut, I rubbed a Snow Cap Adirondack Pigment pad over the top which lightened the blue card, leaving the debossed snowflakes the original blue for a reverse letterpress effect. I cut the inside die in the set in white for a bit of extra detail. I reinserted the die back into the aperture opening with the white centre inside of it. I stamped my sentiment on to vellum and cut it out with the Pierced Flags die set. I attached it over the centre die giving it a bit of movement upwards in the middle. I used the Filigree Poinsettia die and cut a flower to seat at the end of the tag. I added some white tulle, blue Bakers twine and some Holly sprays around the flower as embellishments. I finished the card with some decorative pearls and a pierced white mat, a thin blue mat and another white mat. The finished dimensions are 7 1/2" x 8 1/2" in size. Scroll down for card number two.
Card number two was the result of a mini demo done during my Christmas shows on Hochanda recently. I demonstrated my Fire and Ice technique, then later put the card together as it was just too pretty to waste! I cut the Joy To The World mini background in black card. Next I covered the entire front of it with a sticky adhesive sheet, then turned it over. From the back, I rubbed Summer Meadow gilding flakes into all the exposed areas (essentially what would have been the fall away bits). Next, I removed the other backing sheet, exposing the adhesive on the front and coated it with Iced Snow. I trimmed the edges and mounted it on a white pierced mat and another solid white mat. I added a few Classic poinsettias that were cut from vellum as accents to opposite corners. The finished dimensions are
5 3/4" x 7" in size. I hope one of these will inspire you to get your cards made early!
Julia has shows on Hochanda at 10am, 1pm and 5pm today. She will be certainly have some great demos for you. Don't forget to tune in! All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue. I love seeing all your different Christmas cards, they are great inspiration. Card no.1 just edges it for me today, although the use of the fire and ice technique with the "Joy to the World" background is lovely. Sue XXX
Hello Sue, all your Christmas cards are an inspiration, and every week I think, oh I'll do mine something like that, then you come up with something different. I love both these cards, but the first is really my favourite, the dark blue is just perfect with the white. Have a great day. Bx

Two lovely cards Sue. I remember watching your demo of the second card and was very impressed, but if I had to choose a favourite it would be the first card.

Hi Sue, Both cards are beautiful but the first one does it for me. love Jean Z xxxx
Morning sue and crafty crew.
Loving today's cards although I'm pulling more towards the first one. So far I've been off work as u know and not once have I got near my craft room. I don't know if it's because I feel I need to get the house all tidy in case visitors start arriving that wouldn't normally.
Or because I just can't seem to get into the mood cause minds goin a hundred miles an hour.
Anyway I have been naughty along with my friend the Internet an did purchase a few more dies and goodies before my wages go to the basic pay whilst I'm off.
Thought postie would deliver after hubby had gone but oh no right on bloomin queue he came early for once lol u can imagine the look I got.
But I put on my sad face an said but I've got the cold and I'm ill cough cough lol seemed to work lol xx
Hello Sue
I think I love the first one best, and thank you for the tutorial, I'm sure its easier than it looks ! lol
Thank you for the wishes for me yesterday ...I didn't pop my ears but sounded like a Fog Horn on one blow..... made Stuart (Dr) laugh! now I know why I can't sing anymore, its to do with the tightening of the lungs when they are crap like mine ! O'Dear!
So pleased thats over for another year anyway!
Anna Griffin on QVC for the 'last time' today I will miss seeing her in the UK!
Take care

Hi Sue, Very pretty cards, I especially like the first one. Recorder all set for Julia today. SueL x
Well what a contrast these two cards make! The first is more calming & feminine, while to me the second is more solid & manly! So like them both in their own way. Thank you Sue, such a treat having two cards on Fridays - the highlight of the week!
Hi Sue,
I love them both. I shall definitely make the second one as you gave me your demo sample of it at Ally Pally. The vellum poinsettias go so well it.
Thank you for your inspiration.

Hi Sue

Morning Sue, two gorgeous cards for us today
The first one is my favourite, although it sounds quite complicated.
Take care everyone, Jess xx
Both beautiful cards and oh, so different! At first glance I wasn't so taken with the second card but after looking at it for a while I've really taken to it. :) So I would be unable to decide which I like best, although I do love white cards.

Hi Sue
Love the first card, I'm not keen on gilding flakes so second one is good but not my taste.
Sorry I've not made any comments of late but have been poorly and not up to using computers/iPad lately.
Hope you are well!
Zena xx
they don't call it retail therapy for nothing! When I'm quite stressed or my depression is especially bad, I can't seem to settle in and craft either - even tho it's something I enjoy doing. Sometimes a date with the Internet and a little shopping takes my mind off things for a short while-as long as I don't spend so much I create more stress lol! I completely understand the frustration of the postman delivering at inopportune times! If it was just a boring delivery of vitamins or household essentials, it gets delivered after my husband has gone to work and while I'm trying to sleep or get ready for work. But, if it's crafting goodies, he always makes the delivery after I leave for work, so hubby is the one to find it! Arghh, do u think it's s conspiracy? Lol. But seriously, when my mind is going in a thousand places (none of them useful or good places), I find the only thing that helps is if I can escape into books or good movies. Something that draws me in so thoroughly that I'm focused on it instead of my issues. It's escapism in the best sense - as worry has no value (yet is so hard to avoid if mind is not otherwise focused). I hope that makes sense. I might just be sleep blogging at this point! Hugs from Rebecca in Colorado
Both gorgeous but number 1 is my favourite. It must be a co incidence because I cut 4 snowflake borders yesterday to make your other card where you mitred them but it looked too difficult so I left them whole now I know what to do what them thanks sue for all your inspiration xx love yvonne bennett xx
Hi Sue.
I like both these cards, although the first one is my favourite.
I will be giving both of these cards a try and I can only hope that they will look as good as yours.
Regards,
Evis M.
Hi Sue, two beautiful Christmas cards. Not sure I can pick a favourite, maybe the first one.
Hi Sue
While I love your fire and ice technique it's card one for me with the beautiful snowflake borders and reverse letterpressing.
Hugs and best wishes everyone
Pat
Hi Sue thank you once again for two more lovely cards. I like both of them but if I am honest number one appeals to me more.
love Hilary
Lovely Sue & WW,
Double Friday=double wow for card #1 and then triple wow for card #2! Once again, not enuf time or brain power to absorb directions, but I'll be coming back to these for sure! So pretty!!!
Ladies, for some reason I thought it would be easier or better to go back in a couple previous days' posts and make a few direct replies there - than to try and catch up on this post. But that means, if u r even interested, you would have to go back and read. Laine, I know something you said about Brodie sparked a post that I think I put on tail end (no pun intended) of Wednesday's post. I think there r some direct replies to Teresa, Wheely, Tracy & "P" in Wales on that day as well - or maybe they were on Thursday.? Oh my, I am a sleep deprived mess (I promise i'm not in drugs)! I better sign off before it gets even worse! Xxx Rebecca in Colorado
Hi sue love both cards they are beautiful I remember your fire and ice on hochanda thank you sue love always June horrocks xxxxxxxxx
Thanks Rebecca. Think I'll give watching a film ago with a massive bowl of popcorn. I hear Harry Potter calling my name. I just love watching them. Books not really my thing thanks for the tips tho!! Xx
Hi Sam.
Hope ur op goes well. I know what u mean about all those questions on the sheets for ur pre op they are a bit confusing. I pretty much ticked no for Al but one as half of them I didn't know either I kept looking at hubby an he's laughing and repeating the word nope nope lol
As for platelets I think those are the things that make the red blood cells or is it the White? Can't remember but they keep u goin!! That's what matters lol.
Get well soon chick! X
Two amazing cards, but No.1 really does it for me, it is so eye catching...always love your techniques Sue....many thanks...luv Ursula xx
Good morning! Wow, two really gorgeous Christmas cards, Sue!!! The first is so soft and serene and the second is full of bling. How do you keep coming up with new ideas...you're amazing!
Laine and Wheely Bad, I went back to look at the rest of yesterday's comments and the two of you had me practically spitting out my morning coffee giggling about the antics of Brodie and Billy. I can just picture Brodie sticking to everything with his gluey
paws and Billy going for his walk all covered in glitter....too too funny! Thank for the laugh. 😄
Rebecca, it's good to see you posting again...I had missed your wonderful sense of humor.
Have a beautiful day everyone!
Hi Sue
Late clocking in today! Been planting winter pansies!
Great cards - I love them both although I think the blue one is my favourite.
ave a great weekend everyone and stay safe out there.
Anne M xx
both of these cards are great but the blue and white one is just awesome. what a fab combo ( one i like to use a lot). and that reverse letterpress technique is just the icing on the cake or the snow on the christmas card..... hugs xx
Hi Sue and everyone
Two more lovely Christmas cards. Still deciding which I like best.

Hi, Sue,
Both cards are stunning for different reasons. The first card is just so classic and elegant in every way, I think I love it:). The second card really shows just what different effects can be achieved by playing around with sticky sheets and sparkles. Beautiful cards.
Bejay x
The blue is so striking against the white....
the tan card with the sparkles is also beautiful..
Both card turned out fantastic.....tfs
Well done Sue
So beautiful!
Hello Sue.
Card number one is lovely, the Snowflake border die is one of my favourites. The hint of Navy is really different. I remember the demo for card number two and agree it was far to pretty to waste.What a difference a change of colour makes? you would not think this and yesterdays Card are very similar. Thanks for sharing.
Best wishes
Hi Sue, what gorgeous cards for us today the blue and white is my favourite, I would never think of doing a blue and white for a Christmas card, my colours this year are red and white, gold and white and silver and white so why not a blue and white.
Huge hugs to Melody, Francis and Molly also Tracy, Sam and anyone else who is feeling down.
I don't know what is up with me today all i want is to lie down and sleep we had our flu jabs so it may be that,
Watched Julie on Hochanda this morning and have set up to record just in case i am snoring my head of.
Thank you for sharing Sue, you inspiration is wonderful and i wouldn't be making cards without it, hugs Johanna

Think the double days are fab, and though todays posts are both beautiful and I really love the joy to the world die, it is the blue and white card that does it for me.
Hi Sue, glorious cards, but no.1 just has the edge for me, Kate x
HivSue, Both cards are so pretty but must admit to prefering number 1.
Have a good weekend.

Blue and white colors make the card look so clean and elegant, and are wonderful colors for Christmas cards.

Hi Sue,
Both are beautiful but you know what I'm going to say though - yes it's the fire and ice creation that has the edge for me.
Struggled with windows10 and going back to Windows7 as I'm typing this on my iPad, can't be doing with an unstable system such a short time before going away.
Hugs, rose
The flower dies are gorgeous! great cards! Olga Ko

Thank you Pam an every single one of you for the on going support, rebbeca you can't beat retail therapy I have a room full of it, only thing with me is I normally do it when I am in hospital having my own on going treatment an I must get a little mixed up because I end up with the same item 2 or 3 times over an, by time I get to the parcels I am to late to send back lol Francis says I have planned it so that I can open a shop one day. Kind thoughts to you Tracy. xXx
Hi Sue
Both very beautiful Christmas cards. I remember you doing the fire and ice technique with the second card on your show, A technique that i will never tire of seeing you demo as the results are always stunning
Take care

Thanks melody
I know ur going thru ur own stressful time.
Have to say tho I've never ordered the same thing but I must admit with my stash forever growing it may happen at some point!!
That's a good idea tho resell what I've bought.
I see Julia watts has a pre loved section in her shop on line. I'm quite happy to buy second hand lol I doors my charity shops it's amaxing what u can buy for so little too plus helping a charity at the same time :-) xx
Good evening Sue and the Wilsonette,
The first one is absolutely amazing Sue in all aspects of design, colour and style and has my vote today. The dark one is beautiful but too dark for me personally but I do love how you have done it but I would need to make it lighter and brighter. Your little Joy to the World die makes such a beautiful wee card and would be lovely batch making just doing different twists on it. Thank you Sue for a lovely Friday full of inspiration and wonderment.
Sorry I've not been around but had a few bad days so I am hoping that I'm going to get them less often but it's silly things that set me off.
Sending crafty hugs to all Wilsonettes in need of one for whatever reason.
Love and crafty hugs

Wonderful card designs today. I really like the ethereal look of the poinsettias that the vellum gives them. I was able to watch you do the second card techique when you demonstrated it on the hochanda show. What fun!
Morning Sue and everyone.
Two Beautiful cards! My favourite is the first one.
Craftynanna-hope you feeling more alert in a few days.
Darker and colder days upon us though and it always
makes me sleep more.
Rebecca- the time different must be hard. could you not
comment from Colorado in the morning to make it easier
for you after a good night sleep ? You sound absolutely
shattered. Do you still work as well ?
Good luck for Monday Sam, hope all goes well.
Oh Tracy- craft shopping and OH don't go together often :-)
Enjoy you new goodies and forget for a moment.
Melody- sending you all some hugs, hope Molly is alright.
Wheelybad- hugs to you and Billy and Lorraine, you do
have a funny cat :-)
ToB- take care
Yvonne and Beth- hope you both are alright,
miss you and your comments
Take care everyone,hugs Maria x
Wonderful inspiration as always!
Both cards are beautiful Sue. I love the way you detailed the first card with vellum pointsettias and a touch of ivy. I love the style of this card!
Hi Sue. WOW Two stunning cards today. The first one is so pretty with the vellum poinsettias and the second one has all the bling of a christmas card.
Take care everyone.
Best Wishes.

Two beautiful designs. Love the french navy card. It's just that bit gentler than the black of the second card.
Take care everyone.
Both cards are lovely but I do prefer the first on just because of the colors.
Hi sue, well well well for me it has to be the 1st one that's just me all over, the colour I love, crafty hugs Julie laz xxx
I have to have an inventory app on my phone to put my dies in or else I end up with duplicates. I'll look at one in a store and think, now, do I already have that - or is it just that I've looked at it and wanted it? If I keep up with the inventory app, i can look it up (since I always have my phone). It's definitely prevented some double purchases! Although I think my friends preferred it when I bought duplicates because they always ended up with them! (I too waited too long to figure it out, so couldn't return the dies). I wish I could say I was neat & tidy and always knew what I had and where it was...but that would be a lie! My craft room is a crazy mess! If Laine were to visit me (u know. If we could blink our eyes or wiggle our nose and be wherever we wanted to be) she would either go into shock and leave as quickly as she came - or it would seem a challenge to her and she would get me all organized! Then Beth could redecorate for me and I'd be good to go! Lol
Wonderful cards Sue xx Jan
Absolutely beautiful Sue. I really love how the classic poinsettia cut from the vellum accents the second card. The silver edges are just so classy, and I would not think to do that with the gold gilding. Simply stunning!

In every betting game, the odds are against the player. Every person who hits the jackpot on a slot machine is actually winning money that previous players lost.

Sadly, the longer you gamble, the more likely it is that you will lose money, because the odds are against you.

Many problem gamblers have the false belief that they will be able to "beat the system" but over time they'll lose money, probably an awful lot of it.

The odds of winning the National Lottery jackpot are about 1 in 14 million.

Think of it like this: your friend Dave lives somewhere in London and you want to call him at home but don't have his number.

If you try reaching him by dialling one of 12.5 million London phone numbers, your odds of getting his number right on the first try are better than the odds of winning the lottery jackpot.

I am so happy to read this. This is the type of manual that needs to be given and not the random misinformation that’s at the other blogs. Appreciate your sharing this best doc.
