Hi bloggers! Adding a pretty rosette to your card is sure to give it the Wow factor. They are a bit of work, but such a nice addition too! The Gillian die is just perfect for making decorative rosettes too!
The finished dimensions are 8 1/4" x 8 1/4" in size. All for now, Sue x

Such a beautiful card, gorgeous.
Elaine, it's a really good sign that Andrew is checking out recipes for his meals, so pleased that he is doing better. It must be a relief for you and his wife. So glad things appear to have settled down with the upstairs neighbour.
Tina, poor Mick, it is hard enough for us with the heat but when you are not and cannot regulate temperature it must be torture, no wonder you feel frustrated with trying to cool him down.
Norah, poor Harry, lucky he had grandma with him during the thunder, we are lucky as it hasn't hit us yet, still so warm.
Cheryl, lovely to see your blog yesterday, hope you are well, I have missed you.
Hugs to Tracey and all missing friends.
What a beautiful card! Fabulous. It looks so delicate and lacy. Thanks Sue.

Morning Sue, gorgeous card.

Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, oh thank you so much for this video, I tried to do the rosette a couple of weeks ago and I just could not do it, as you know because I emailed you about it, and you said it would be video'd about the 21st, spot on. I am going to do all my morning blogs and then watch it.....bet you can guess what I will be doing later.
Yes this heat is awful especially for anyone who has problems, I am just melting all the time and feel so drained, you know the feeling don't you. Hurry up thunder and cool us down.
Thinking of you Elaine, Andrew, Tina, Mick, Tracey and family and anyone else who I have not mentioned.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
Wow Sue, this card is amazing! The Rosette is fantastic and I must give it a try. The whole card, shapes and colours is so good and you have used your dies to perfection,
thank you,

Lovely Lacey look to this rosette Sue. JJxx
Good morning Sue and crafters all,
Yet another beautiful delicate card. Love the colours. Will definitely have to spend birthday money on pierced circles and Gillian die.
Thank you for the inspiration!!!
Try and keep cool
Love and crafty hugs

Hi Sue

Oh my word Sue this is amazing. Good morning by the way ! As soon as the photo loaded, I gasped if that doesn't sound too OTT, but it's the truth, wow. If this isn't the one to shake me up to go and collect my Wellington die from the shop, then I may as well sell what dies, folders and card stock I have and throw in the towel. All I need to do is watch how to turn Gillian into that incredible rosette, and use another frame as I don't have the circle collection just yet. Oh boy, I predict that there will be the most stunning card prompted by today's beauty posted on the fb page by the incredibly talented Beverly F soon, this lady has more talent in her little finger nail than I have in my entire body lol it has to be said that unless you knew for sure, you wouldn't be able to tell the difference who had made which card if they were side by side ! Anyway, I shall watch the tutorial and attempt a rosette or two, get the Wellington home and see what happens. Thank you Sue for giving me that push I was looking for.
Have a lovely day. Hugs coming your way as per xxx
Hello Sue and all
love it, love it, love it!!!!!! Like June I had a try at a rosette, not too bad but your hints make it so much easier, the scoring and little pegs especially.
So glad I bought the circles from Tassie last week, will have to do one like this, I have just the person in mind.
I hope you are all coping with the heat, keep drinking water that is so important
hugs

Good morning Sue.
I'm loving the beautiful, filigree, lacy look you have created in this design, it's wonderful and would leave the recipient feeling very special.
Thank you for the tutorial, I'm looking forward to watching it when I get home from work later.x
Love the embossing folder and dies! Awesome card!
Looks a great card Sue. Will have to watch the video later, and this die is another must have ! Thank you. Xx
Good morning Sue today's card is gorgeous I love it. The dies are all beautiful. I am looking forward to watching the video later with a nice cup of earl grey tea. Have a great day today. Hugs Jackie

Sorry everyone but I love this weather.Kitty.
WOW ! and WOW ! again, Sue you are a Genius .
Thank you all for your continued support and good wishes for Andrew. Yesterday was another good day he went to visit his Uncle then came to visit me i think i can safely say " he has turned the corner " he has more colour , walking better and a little quicker and even his voice is stronger .
June i hope Sue's video helps you to master your card today , let us know how you get on .
Big hugs to all
Elaine H X
WOW you are right Sue,it is more than worth the time and effort if the result is a card as beautiful as this,thank you,Linda x
Good morning Sue. Gorgeous card, love the rosette. Unfortunately I don't have any of the ingredients for this card and I'm having to put crafty spending on hold for a while as things have been happening at work and I don't know that I'll have a job next term. But it is making me get out my "old" dies and I have to say I'm enjoying working with the Spanish collection again.
Pam, I'm a bit further down the coast from you and we're still waiting for the thunderstorms too! Hugs to all. Sue xxx
Good morning Se
What a super wow card this is! It is beautiful. Will watch later. Can't wait to see how it is made.

Both you and John are in sync today as you have both done different cards using mostly the same dies.

Love Val in Spain x
Hi Sue,
Such a lovely card, I love what you've done to the centre (ie striplets and rosette). And I can't wait to start playing with my circles when they arrive. They're beautiful - well, so are all your Nobles.
Hugs, Rose
Hi Sue. Perfect timing, my Gillian die is scheduled to arrive today. SueL x

Wow indeed, simply stunning, so delicate and beautiful
stunning card Sue, love it
Good morning, Sue
This is such a pretty card and I am forward to watching your video later.
Lesley S x
Two very interesting techniques today that together help to make up a stunning card. I have the Gillian so can at least try making a rosette. The circle dies will have to wait till birthday money comes through though! Another six weeks to wait for that.... Because I can' t get on Freeview at our caravan despite half a dozen attempts to tune the darned thing, I only managed to catch up your weekend shows last night; I enjoyed them as always. A two hour slot is so practical.
Teresa
Hi Sue
WOW stunning card and brilliant video as always, will have to add these dies to my list but I need the stitched lattice first!!

Hi Sue, a gorgeous card showing yet again the versatility of your striplets and the Gillian die. I have made many rosettes (or pinwheels as they are sometimes called) but always using strips of paper, never a circular die, so I now have to look at all my dies in a different light becuase what you have created is beautiful.
Frances
Hi Sue , Thankyou for yet another beautiful and inspirational card. I have not had time to wach the vidio yet but will sit down later.

Good morning Sue and the Wilsonettes,
This is a gorgeous card Sue, so tactile and 3 dimensional and just so different. It reminds me off a rosette that you get for winning like at the show jumping or horse racing, ideal for our wee Wilsonettes that do all the pony club things and have went up a grade or won a show. There isn't a bit of this beauty that i don't like as it is a work of art. Thank you Sue for bringing us yet another WOW that deserves its day on the blog.
Well now that Rory, Tia and I have got over yesterdays natural fireworks we can stop shaking, oh boy do i hate thunder and lightening. I remember being up at Alcudia at the top of Majorca sitting in a restuarant when it start the grand firework display and we were right at this plate glass window. Well i ended up walking back to the hotel on my own as the friends i was with were quite happy to sit there and have a front row seat at nature at it's fireiest. When i was younger a window shattered on us when it had lightening strike it and for that reason watching it's display was not up my street, but my friends thought i was exaggerating. They found me under my bed in the hotel later on when they came back with the curtains closed. We had the four seasons in the one day yesterday i think because the sun was splitting the sky later on in the afternoon.
Sending hugs to Tracy, i hope you are getting through your last remaining duty that you can do for your dad flower, but i hope that you can get some of his little bits of wit come to you and bring a smile. To Tina E, Claire and family, hugs, thoughts and prayers to you, Elaine and Andrew, i hope that Andrew is feeling better getting out and about flower, and to Tina and Mick, i hope that it isn't so hot for you today Mick. To the other Wilsonettes that need, could do with or just want i send hugs to you all,
love and crafty hugs

To My Very Special Dearest Friend Sue,
What A Truly Outstanding, Tremendous Card Its Just So Stunning
I Love "The Treasure Box Embossing Folder" The Details Are Quite Pronounced.
I Love The Fabulous Colour Combination That You've Used, "The Colbalt Blue" Is Just
So Striking. Next To "The Cocnut White"
I'm Thrilled With How You Explained In Your Video Which You Always Do So Extremely Well,
About "The Atlas Die" You've Created A Truly Tremendous Background It Looks Extremely Exquisite
Rich And Lacy, If You Hadn't Shown Us I Wouldn't Have Believed It.
I Love How You Used "The Gillian Die" (That's On My List) The Rosette was Awesome,
Not Forgetting The Very Beautiful Double Pierced Circle From The Noble Collection.

Hello Sue,
What a lovely card! Like France's I have made lots of rosettes from a strip of paper this is different. Need to watch the video and learn. Will do that later.
Watched the second hour of one of your weekend shows last night - the one " starring" Your number one fan!! It was very good and very funny!
Love Myra x
WOW!! That's stunning, Sue! I love the crispness of the rosette, and the noble circle dies are my new favourites. Jo x
Fabulous!!! Amazing look for this card, and the rosette with the Gillian die is a wonderful idea! Go to look at the tutorial, thank you!

I like the delicate look of this card. My Gillian die has arrived. Now onto making beautiful rosettes!
Hello Sue, what a lovely and lacy card, love the rosette element. Will catch up with the video later. Bx

Hi Sue
Stunning card hope phone will let me watch
Mick slept slightly better last night and has drank a bit more today but still in pain and cannot get comfy, he seems to have his motion sickness back sounds weird when your just laid in bed, he is scared the GP will send him back to hospital but if he's no better tomorrow I won't have a choice he cannot keep going like this but he needs some nourishment so if he has to go in I hope it won't be for long he's loving being at home, been very humid again today bit cloudy but no sign of rain or thunder storms
Thank you all again for your kind words and wishes they are keeping me going
Happy crafting
Love and huge hugs to you all

Hi Sue and everyone. Gorgeous card today, as always. Had a busy day so not watched the video yet. Will do soon though. I am intrigued by how you have made the rosette.
Love Helen xxx
Hi Sue. WOW !!! This is a gorgeous card. Fab video to, as always !!! I love all of the dies you have used but I don't have any of them, yet !!! Great colour combo to. The Gillian die always reminds of the sort of Spirograph patterns I used to make as a child. I thoroughly enjoyed all your shows at the weekend. You were fantastic as always. I loved Johns shows to on Monday. I finally managed to buy your Swiss collection which had been at the very top of my wish list ever since I first saw it. It is amazing and I love it. The only trouble is, I have been unwell since I recieved it through the post and have not yet had the chance to get playing with it. I am hoping to change that tomorrow. I am going to my wonderful crafty friends house to do some crafting, chatting and plenty of laughing !!! ( Gloria Robey, Sidcup.) Thankyou for sharing your gorgeous card and video today Sue.
