Good Sunday morning all! I had a request for this card and thought it would make a nice addition to a Sunday blog post! I decided to go with a black and white colour scheme since it seemed to go well with the retro feel to this card. I used the
Intertwining Circle mini Striplet and cut it twice out of white and one out of black card. I backed each of the striplets with the opposite colour that I cut them in. Next I used just the outer cutting die to cut three even boxes in another piece of
coconut white card. I added mounting foam to the back to raise it on to another piece of white card. I recessed each of the striplets into the cut outs, alternating the colours to create my background. I cut the
Zoe die out of black and backed it with black then cut the centre out to create a frame. I stamped my sentiment then seated the frame over it and added it to the centre of the card. I completed the card with black and white mats and my usual pierced edge. The finished dimensions are 8" x 9" in size.

Hi Sue,
Love this die - I've already made half-a-dozen birthday cards with it, or rather the cards more or less made themselves as the die is so striking even when used plainly as you've done here just using contrasting cardstock colours...
Congratulations to the Comment Game winners...
Looking forward to the new dies launch tomorrow - I deliberately don't trawl the internet looking for them as I love the surprise when each new set is revealed with it's demo card during your launch...
Izzy
Love the Circle Striplet die set. Wow! Looking forward to tomorrow's die launch.
Hi Sue
I wasn't sure about this die but the more I see it being used it is growing on me. I like it in black and white - it is giod for a mans card.
Thank you for sharing. Oh my goodness new dies! Very excited but I haven't touched on the last set yet!
Congratulations to all the winners.
Love Diane G xxxxx
A beautiful card. Like many of the above I like the monochrome look and this die lends itself to it perfectly. Someone mentioned a retro look and my mind went immediately to a combination of orange and brown, which ladies of a certain age will remember from the seventies wallpapers that were all the rage!!!
Teresa
Beautiful card sue, looking forward to your new dies
Congratulations to the lucky winners

Lovely card! This circles die is certainly growing on me .

Hi Sue. Stunning card, love the black and white. Looking forward to seeing your creations with the new dies :-) Congratulations to the winners. Have a great day. Hugs to all xxx
Hi Sue - I'm loving this monochrome look. So suitable for quick cards and men's too. Don't know why it's taking me so long to buy it, but it is now top of my list and I'm going to order it today before I'm tempted with your new dies. So excited to see what you have in store for us! Congratulations to the three lucky winners today. Best wishes

Think this mini striplet die is just brilliant and has a definite masculine edge, particularly when using monochrome colours. This post is right up my street.
This is lovely Sue! Very different and the circles can be used for everyone!
Great news about more dies but not for my purse lol.
Congratulations to this weeks winners!

Hi Sue, a lovely card. Elegant with a 60's look with the background. Congratulations to the lucky winners.
Good morning Sue,
beautiful card...
I have this circle striplet which is fantastic because it´s so special.
I sneaked a peek and I have to say: AMAZING NEW DIES!!!!!!!!
Rolf xxx
Good morning Sue and the wilsonettes,
Sorry Sue this one isn't one for me but your card would be nice for a man which we always struggle with. The design reminds me of those hideous wallpapers and things that they brought out for your home in the late 60's early 70's. It could also be the constellations of the planets so would do fine for a child who was into exploring the galaxy as well but just not for me, sorry flower.
Congratulations to all the winners of this weeks comment game i hope that you have fun with your prize.
Well i am trying to keep my eyes open after another night of seeing all the hours and it is not that nice here and the clouds are deciding to have a rest on the top of my hills once more so i will say good bye for now sending hugs to all our Wilsonettes that could do with them. Tracey flower i hope you are feeling a bit better today as i know this new chemo drug is knocking you for a six so sending you hugs to just let you know that you are thought about.
Love and crafty hugs
Norah (Glenochil Village)
Hi Sue, lovely card, with the fantastic mini intertwining Striplet, a really lovely striplet.
I am so looking forward to the new die launch and seeing how you will use them. I have been trying to save some money so that I can treat myself, although I know that I will have to add some to my wish list as well.
Wendyx
I love the clean lines of this card. Looking forward to seeing your new die launch tomorrow.

A very striking, elegant,, classy card Sue. I love the monochrome cards, although I know some don't!
Can't wait for tomorrow to see your new designs from the new dies. Bring it on as they say!
Hello Sue,
I really like this card! I have the die but only got it fairly recently and so far have just cut it out!! I just have to do that!
The black and white is stunning . I love it.
Looking forward to seeing what you make with your new dies! I'm always going to be very good - until I see them!!
Tracy - sounds like a pretty awful week! I hope next week isn't so bad! You made me laugh about retirement! I hate to tell you but I have less free time now - either that or I use it badly!! Keep hanging in there!
Love to all those who are suffering or caring for others.

Hi Sue
Need this striplet! I confess, it's one that has grown on me. I love the monochrome look and this suits it so well. By the way, a nod to yesterday's fab card, black and teal looked amazing. Looking forward to seeing the latest dies... all I can say is thank goodness it's my birthday later this week, I will check in as much as I can.I still need to go and update my list of dies and folders as the last list I made is over a year old.
Tracy, I'm sorry you feel so rough, sending hugs, tea, sympathy and a blanket to huddle under xxx
Lorraine, enjoy your purchases, in case I was awol a belated happy birthday xxx
Molly, sending hugs to all the family xxx
Marg, Maria, Lynda, Alimecca and Yvonne, big hugs and thanks. The week caught up with me yestetday... a migraine and a flake out meant I slept through most of the afternoon, evening and night. Feeling a bit like I have a hangover today! Billy spent most of that time cuddled up with me bless him, such a soppy dog!
Mr W will be here with the shopping soon so I'd better go. Sending hugs to absolutely everyone, have plenty to spare so take what you need.

Hi Sue, I hope you are sitting down because - I actually really like this card! The die is very reminiscent of the 60's, a time I remember well and I love the design. Looking forward to your launch tomorrow and seeing what you have created.
Yvonne G, Wheely Bad & Tracy - hope you all start feeling better very soon.
Tressa - yes, I remember! I'm sure we had something similar in our dining room :-)
Congratulations to all the comment game winners, enjoy your prizes.

Hopefully I can leave a message today. Yesterday Google wouldn't let me leave a message or sign in. Love this card today. I also made a black and white one yesterday . Very pleased with it. Looking forward to see what you do with the new dies tomorrow.
Hello Sue
Love this card and think the white and black is perfect for the striplet you have used. I always think that this colour combo works for male or female cards.
Looking forward to the new die launch on your blog and am getting my purse ready!
Lol Barbara W xx
Love the contemporary look of this one
Hi Sue and friends,
Now Sue,you will laugh at this coincidence, I have started featuring a 'Sketch Challenge' on my blog each week and today I show all the cards that the ladies sent in for the challenge, I am not kidding when I say it lookjs like you have taken part in vthe challenge, your card fits perfectly, we have also featured this same striplet die quite a bit too, resulting in some ladies deciding that they 'need' this die in their collection. Its amazing how seeing 1 card can change your mind about a die!
Thank you food the inspiration Sue,
Hugs
Sandra xxx
Hi Sue
I am liking the more simple cards that you are making at the moment, although they are still larger than the ones I like making, and I will admit that I never use as many layers. But then I always make folded cards, and the largest is usually A5, I have made a couple which are a bit bigger,and I am just in the middle of making one which is A4 size. It is to be an anniversary card for my husband, I will try to send a picture when it is done.
Margaret xxx
Wonderful card and i,m sure the new dies will be stunning, xxx
So CAS and elegant :)
Particularly like how you have alternated the B&W striplets.
x
Hi, Sue,
This die is on my wish list and I love the way you've used it in b&w. I'm thinking this would make a great 'male' card, even if instead of b&w you used autumnal colours.
Looking forward to the new launch :)
Bejay x
Hi Sue,
Great male card.
I can't wait to see your new collection in action!
Thank you for sharing.
Veronique L
Hi Sue. What a fab card !! I love your idea of alternating the coloured strips and then foam mounting a white frame over the top. A great background idea !! Lots of possibilities using lots of different colours of card. I love your circles mini striplet dies. Another one on my wish list !! Your Zoe dies look fab to Sue. I really love the pattern this die creates when cut. I think it is very pretty. This is a fab card to make for a man. Thank you for sharing Sue.
Yesterday's card looks fab to !! I actually have the Ornate Octagon dies so I will have to have a go at making my own version of this one. It is lovely.
Take care Sue. Sending you lots of love from Tres x x x
Sending lots of love and best wishes to everyone today from Tres x x x
Love love love it The striplet was out of stock when I tried to order it. Going to keep trying.
Your black and white cards always make my heart happy!!1 Well, actually all of your cards do but the b/w ones add a little bigger happiness!
You should have a challenge once a month where you pick someone who chooses 2 or 3 dies for you to use to create a card. Maybe even allow them to choose the color palette also. Just and idea!
Have a great day and I look forward to the new dies being revealed! TFS!
Just the right amount of contrast but would change the black sentiment. I'm sorry but not a fan of cards with dominant black. Looking forward to the die releases.
Congrats to the winners and best wishes all. Jxxx
Good Afternoon Sue, what a fabulous male card that design would make, love it. hugs Shirleyxxxxxx
Hi Sue

Good afternoon lovely Sue and her crafty crew!
Apologies for being absent for a couple of days, had a spate of seizures but feeling almost normal again:-), it looks like I've missed a couple of beauties predominantly featuring a personal favourite colour scheme, black. I watched yesterday's video and was very impressed with the finished results and the fact that you are encouraging us not to neglect our older dies.
Today's card is so retro and whilst I am too young to remember the seventies clearly, the trauma of our orange and brown wallpaper in the kitchen and the flocked effort in the lounge have scarred me for life! This die lends itself to similar colours for a truly vintage look, ideal for the fussy amongst us ie men, who can't appreciate a bit of ribbon, the odd flower or stick pins....imbeciles!:-)
I am so excited about your blog launch tomorrow that I will surely have difficulty sleeping tonight- whilst I have had a sneaky peek, nothing compares to seeing your own personal interpretation of the delights on offer. I never make a definite decision about my favourites until after your launch but I am afraid, very afraid, that my list will now be so gargantuan that it would be easier walking to the moon and back than working my way to the end of it:-( I will enjoy the proceedings immensely nontheless!
I've had an embarrassingly idle day today, my mum is out with my brother and nephew so I've had the house to myself barring two sleeping moggies- I did ponder polishing the leather sofas but quickly thought twice and decided to try and read that novel I started last week. The mental strain has left me feeling wiped out though which is so annoying, maybe it was too soon after my fits methinks....
Should have done more of that cross stitch that is staring ominously at me from across the room- my poor excuse was that the quality of light was sub standard even with the lights on...at this rate it'll be my mums 80 the before I get it finished!
Tracy, so sorry to hear that you are in pain but you're so right, nausea is much harder to contend with- you have such a refreshing attitude to the whole experience, we can all take a leaf out of your book.xx
Wheely Bad, those migraines are a royal pain in the bum! I usually get them before a seizure so I can really empathise with your battle. Our furry friends are such a comfort when we're under the weather though, Billy will sense you need him close by. Hope today is brighter for youxx
Yvonne, what a shame that you've been suffering too honey, it's no fun being wiped out after doing a few chores, sometimes you wonder if it's worth having a clean house and crease less clothes...it's a no brainier for me though, I'd rather be a physical wreck and have a spotless house, I continued to Hoover even with a double fracture on my knee cap and a cast up to my crotch!:-)
Sorry I've not messaged you yet on Facebook, not trying to avoid you...despite your dodgy reputation and even dodgier profile pictures....just been a bit under the weather. Be in touch soon my dearxxxx
Missing Beth, Rebecca and deb c, hope you are all well, get in touch soon girlsxxxx
Cuddles to Maria, thanks for asking about Brodie and Darcey. They are well despite their impending trip to the vet and Brodies two escapes yesterdayxxxx
Hugs to Lorraine, jan Theresa, melody, Saba and anyone else under the weather or needing a boostxxx

Hello Sue.
I always like monochrome colour Cards and this is no exception. I love the reversal of the colours for the centre panel, easy but very effective. Thanks for sharing.
Congratulations to Chris Curry, Hazel Young and June Horrocks.
Best wishes
Love this card but not in black and white. Have made it in other colours and it makes a great male card. Looking forward to tomorrow.
Fab card Sue. I love this circles die. It's on the top of my wish list
Annie P

Very striking card, love the contrasts
Love today's card and I love that striplet but now I have three do I really need another? I have seen some of the new dies but seeing them on here is the best :)
I have not used my notebook so can't comment on everyone, sorry.
I have lost my mojo which is ridiculous with all my lovely new things but my brain is all over the place at the moment so crafting is taking a back seat.
I am trying to do my exercises, sort out money and get our food shopping under control. There is only so much I can do but I want to be more disciplined.
Going to watch Labyrinth so will leave you now.
Wishing good things to all xxx
Hi Sue,
Monochrome is always a favourite of mine and this is no exception....stunning.

Hi Sue,
Really like this card and love the striplets - it is one of two dies that I bought from the last collection and it is so useful for a range of cards especially for the pesky miles!
Congratulations yo the lucky winners.

Wheely - I know exactly what you mean about feeling like you've got a hangover!! Xx

Good evening Sue, another beautiful black and white favourite of mine. Hope you had a relaxing weekend, Ivy xx
Good evening Sue, what a lot of wonderful cards you have shown us this week, I'm not sure where the week has gone and how I missed catching up with them! I particularly liked Wednesday's card, the colours and the die are all gorgeous. Well I don't think I will be able to comment much again this week, but will try and catch as many of your die posts as I can, good luck to every one and I eagerly await your new creations x
Another beautiful card Sue, I really love the design of this die and card.
and I must say I absolutely love it in black & white.
It is going to be fantastic for so many cards including those difficult men's cards.
I don't know if is just me that find men's ones so difficult to do especially the men who don't have any specific interest.
Can't wait for the launch, I have seen them and ordered one but I so want to see
them on here and on your beautiful creations.
Hi Sue
Love this card. Black and white always a winner but could be played with to create so many different variations. Brilliant for men - got a sort of retro vibe to it methinks
Oh my goodness - on a scale of 1-10 how excited am I for tomorrow's fabulous ground breaking monumental launch??!! Well at least a 20. Still feeling pretty grotty with this 'bug' so news like that is a cheering tonic x
Not my usual long comment (yippee I hear you cry). As I said not feeling too good so struggling a bit today.
Lots of love to everyone

Hi Sue
Loving the black and white can never go wrong with these colours.
Hi Sue,
Oh I love this card. I must say this was my least favourite die when I very first seen it but as soon as you out you magic to it its really becoming a favourite.
Tracy I hope those pains disappear soon big hugs x
Yvonne I meant more my everyday mojo don't think I've ever had creative mojo so Sue's blog and pinterest are a must. I just really struggle getting out of bed what with the fatigue and pain. I just don't get it as I have so much to be grateful for, I need to take a leaf out of Tracy's book.
Laine sorry you've not been too good, I missed you when you were gone. So Brodie escaped twice!! OMG!! He's a little terror hehe!!
Hugs for all

Hi Sue,
I've been dithering about getting this die for ages, well I cracked up on Friday and ordered it.
Now you tell me your new dies are coming out this week, I'm never going to be able to keep up with your collections.
Hope you had a good weekend, love and hugs, Brenda xxx
Just love this card sue, very retro feel to it. Congrats to all this wks winners enjoy your goodies when they come.
Another lovely way to use this striplet. One for me to try perhaps using coffee and cream card as I don't do black.
Congratulations to the comment game winners.
Take care everyone.
I didn't manage to get on here yesterday, so I almost missed a lovely card! I do love black and white, and although I don't have this die, I do have other striplets. :)
Well done to the winners :)

Must have missed this striplet launch - love this. So clean and modern in the black and white theme. Susan x
Hi Sue
Love todays card, especially in the monochrome colours which I always think looks very elegant & opulent & as though it's cost a fortune in one of those little 'Boutique' style shops.
The mini striplet die is gorgeous & another to add to my ever growing wish list.
Liking the way you have divided the design into 3 panels which looks amazing.
Stunning as always.

Saw and loved this card on Sunday not knowing that I would need a condolence card so soon!! The striplet is speeding to me by 1st class post (I hope!!) so should be able to get the card done and in the post by the weekend.
