A very elegant card that is as beautiful as it is simple to make. As a keen parchment crafter I have a stash of parchment paper and you, Julia and John are are opening my eyes to alternative uses for it. I don't have any distressed markers but do have a plentiful supply of blendable pencils and watercolour pens so am going to try your technique using these. After I have bought the dies of course!
Thank you.

Beautiful. This card is just what a Christmas card should look like!
Hi sue.
Fabulous and immaculate.
Sue any chance u could write a book on your techniques? I do love ur videos but I'd quite like a book just full of ur ideas.
I know u starred in few in a creative expressions ones. But I know everyone's probably thinking go on girl just do a full book on ur own and why not special lady? Ur die line was major success so why not a technique book with samples xxx
I know I'd buy it xxx
Ps congratulations Tina lucky lady xx

Hi Sue
Love this card. White with a splash of colour - perfect x
Well I haven't been around for a while. Huge dose of fatigue resulting in quite a few days in bed then a slight spell of self pity. I am still not terribly active but am out of bed, upright and dressed - which is a huge accomplishment let me tell you.
Need to spend a while playing catch up with cards and comments as my lonely little brain cell still seems to be on strike.
Lorraine - hope you have been behaving in my absence x
Sending love to everyone especially Melody and Tracy.

Good evening Sue,
I love this card that you have made for our delight today, it is gorgeous, so beautiful in the.white and just the added highlights of the holly coloured in with the small sprig of holly at the corner. This holly mini striplet I don't have as yet but one that I so want as it makes such a beautiful statement and would be a wonderful addition to anyone's fireplace. Sorry I'm so late but I just haven't stopped all day so hopefully tomorrow will be a quieter day from me having to ran around like a loony alley today.
Sending hugs to all our Wilsonettes in need,
