Hello bloggers! The first post of the year for the Christmas double days is upon us! I decided to start with a simple but elegant Madonna and child card. I cut the
Ray of Light Background out of
aqua card and backed it with
aqua card as well for a tone on tone look. Next I used the
Double Pierced Circles and cut an aperture out of
coconut white card. I added mounting foam to the back and added it over the background. I cut
The Nativity in white card and then cut the backing out of white card that had a
sticky adhesive sheet placed on it. I peeled the backing paper off and added the Nativity die cut to it, then glittered the exposed adhesive with
Diamond Snow. I added it to the centre of the card with foam. I added a slightly larger
Double Pierced Square frame in white to the edge of the card, then finished it with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7" x 7" in size. Scroll down for card number two.
Card number two is completely different and more vintage styled. I started with a piece of cream and black polka dotted paper from my stash. I added it to a larger piece of milk card, leaving wide edges on both sides. Next I cut the
Snowflake Border (from last year's Festive Collection) in black and glued them to the sides. I stamped the
Cosy Cottage Scene stamp in black on milk card and cut it out with the matching
Snowflake Filigree die. I inked the edge pattern with
Antique Linen, then coloured the cottage, snow and trees in the centre. I cut an oval of
sticky adhesive sheet and added it to just the centre design area. I peeled the backing off and glittered it with
Diamond Snow. I cut a
Snowflake Filigree in black and cut it in half and added it to either side of the stamped image. I adhered it to the centre of the decorative paper. I stamped my sentiment and cut it out with an oval die. I used a slightly larger oval and cut a black mat for it and added it to the lower portion of the card. I completed the card with a milk pierced mat, a black mat and a final milk mat. The finished dimensions are 7 1/2" x 9" in size. Have a favourite? All for now, Sue x

Gorgeous cards Sue. Both so very lovely in different ways. Love the twosome.
Steph, you are too critical about your work, you sell at the market and those canny shoppers love your cards, do they must be good. Your Carers know the effort you put in to everything you do, that makes them doubly precious.
Elaine, it is so good that Andrew is enjoying his week away. How are you doing, till you get sorted, try some earplugs at night,. You need your sleep.
Tina, thinking about you and Mick, hope all is well.
Tracey, bet that night with the girls was a riot after the wine.
June, so glad hubby is doing well, Tina, hope you and yours is too, the waiting for results is torture.
Hugs to all, present and missing.
Good Morning Sue
Both lovely cards I think I prefer the second one.
Have a great week end.
Jan x
Two gorgeous cards but I love the simplicity of the first one. Have a great day Sue, hugs x
Such different cards but both are gorgeous and aren't we lucky to get two a day for a while. Nice to see that last years Christmas dies haven't been forgotten too.
Thank you so much Sue.

GM Sue. I do love the ray of light but I think I prefer No 2.
Hello Sue, 2 extremely lovely cards, I like them both, so cannot choose a favourite. Looking forward to more double day inspiration. Have a great day all. Bx
WOW Sue that time already huh ? Maybe a post Andy shouldn't get involved in - C-mas in August is bound to see his heart pounding out of his chest lol he just don't get it lol.
Number one for me, I just love the square frame with that gorgeous blue background with the circular frame, it just looks so clean fresh simple and understated. Absolutely gorgeous.
Hope you have a good Friday, and I'll start it off with a friendly hug xx
Good morning Sue,
Two totally different styles but both lovely cards, I love the little cottage scene stamp & I am sure both cards would be well received by everyone. Yvonne xx
Two gorgeous cards and for once I have a definite favourite! No. 2 is just beautiful,I love that stamp.
Good morning Sue.
A double treat, what a lovely surprise! I was very pleased to see you have used the Ray of Light die as it's on my wishlist and looks beautiful. Both cards are striking in their own way and I'm unable to choose a favourite.x
Hi Sue
glad you are doing double up day of christmas cards today's two are stunning I like the second one better thank you for sharing tracyw x
Morning Sue
Two lovely cards. We are so lucky that you can inspire us all so much. I like both cards but my favourite is the first one - the Maddona and child is beautiful

Two lovely cards . If I had to choose it would be no2 Have a nice weekend everyone. JJxx
Morning Sue.
Thank you so very much for the beautiful inspiration.
I have not been able to do any crafting for the last twelve weeks, hopefully one day I can get back to it.
Take care and have fun Kitty.
Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, oh I do like double days and these two samples are so very different but both absolutely fantastic in their own right. I am so pleased I bought the 'rays' die and also the cottage snow scene stamp because I can try them both out.
Well it has been quite an eventful week, and with the Olympics starting I know who is going to be glued to the TV, I can then play away with my crafting stash, I have so many things I want to do just need to get my head in gear and start on them.
My thoughts and hugs as always go to everyone, especially:
Steph - don't put yourself down, you are a fantastic crafter and make beautiful keepsakes.
Elaine are you getting any sleep?, I don't know what to advise you might want to take up Pam's suggestion of the earplugs. Pleased Andrew is enjoying his holiday.
Tina and Mick, I do hope things are OK for you
Tracey, hope you enjoyed your girly night out and all the wine.
Tina, hope you get the results you wanted soon.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
Stunning cards Sue xx hazel
Hi Sue and crafters all,
Beautiful both cards in their own special ways.
The ray of light for the more religious cards we have to send.
The second for the rest.
I have an embossing folder like the Ray of light so could use that instead of a die.
Hi Sue
Two lovely cards. The first is my favourite, I love the simplicity of it, the ray embossing folder is perfect in the background.
B xx
Good morning Sue and everyone. Two fabulous cards to start your Friday double days. I love the use of the frames on the first card but the second just edges it for me. Hugs to all. Sue xxx
Two very different Christmas cards. The second one is more my type but they're both lovely. Debra x
Good morning Sue,
I've been so looking forward to our Christmas double days!....love these and normally anything vintage gets my vote but I do like the simplicity of the first Nativity card with it's perfect classic framing using a circle within a square...
Izzy
Good Morning Sue,
Wow these cards are gorgeous a great start to your double day Christmas.

Glad to see that you have started showing your Christmas cards and how lucky are we to get two on the same day. Both are very lovely and so totally different. But my favorite would be Card #2. I like the more traditional look of the card.

Hi Sue,
so glad we've got double days, do't ask me to pick a favourite - the snowflake border is still one of my favourites from last year. it is just divine.
BUT the first card is striking and the spirit of Christmas......... so I'm glad you showed us both.
Hugs, Rose
Two beautiful cards Sue , the first one is my favourite it looks so serene and peaceful .
Pam,, every time i say Andrew is doing well he has a set back , he was not feeling too good yesterday and spent the day in bed his temp was normal but his BP low again ,{ but not low enough to go to the Hosp } i am just hoping it is higher today after a full days rest .
I had another good night last night { 3 consecutive nights } i just hope it continues.
Sending lots of hugs to all .
Take care Everyone
Elaine H X
Yes I like twofers, too, Sue! Both lovely cards, really like the ray of light sad can see all sorts of possibilities using that.

Stunning cards Sue, love them both but the Ray of Light has the edge
Hi Sue, love both of these cards . love Jean Z xxx
A great start to the Christmas Double Days! I love both these. I always like religious Christmas cards, and the vintage one is beautiful. I really like the style of it.
Hiya sue and crafty friends.
Two beautiful cards this morning.
I'm not keen on nativity stuff normally but this one just drew my eye in because of the ray of light background in Aqua just made it pop out beautifully.
The second card also was smashing but the first one I just kept going back to look at it again lol. Just loving ur dies just now. Saving up for my next purchase lol
Love to all and cuddles available on request! Hee hee xx
Hi Sue
What a lovely treat this morning. I like the simplicity of the first card, it doesn't need any words and as Lilian says it's what Christmas is all about however I love the second card. The stamp is gorgeous and it's lovely seeing the snowflake boarders from last year making an appearance too. Thank you for sharing.
Love Diane G xxx
Elaine I hope Andrew is feeling better today after a rest xxx
Tracey I hope you had a good time last night, just what you needed xxx
June good to hear hubby's tooth has settled down and you can both enjoy the Olympics in your own special way! Xxx
Tina and Mick sending hugs xxx
two lovely cards
Two lovely cards. Card two is very traditional but card one is my favourite as it is a modern take on a classic nativity scene.
Hi Sue
Two beautiful cards. I love the little cottage scene stamp and the ray of light die. Please, please excuse my ignorance, but can anyone tell me what the little section of the nativity die is that is above Mary's head?
Have a great day everyone.
Hugs.
Morning Sue
Two gorgeous cards, I think I favour card 2 just that little bit more though!
Hope you have a good weekend
June x
Good morning Sue Oh I love your Christmas double days! Two beautiful cards both very different very difficult to choose a favourite If I really had to choose I think it would be the nativity one but I love them both!
Morning Sue, what a beautiful way to start you Christmas Blogs, two beautiful cards but so very different, would not like to choose between them. Really looking forward to seeing what other goodies you have to show us.
Wendyx
Hi Sue. Definitely card 1 for me today. Very modern and very different. Love it. SueL x
To My Very Special Dearest Friend Sue,
"WOW" Sue I Truly Love "Double Card Day's Espcially" If They Include "Christmas Cards"
Yes I'm One Of Those Sad People Whom Enjoy Making Christmas Cards Its Wonderful
That You've Shared Two Extremely Different One's With Us.
I Love The First Where You've Used "The Ray Of Light Die" And Cut It Out In Aqua,
Then "The Stunning Nativity Scene" Where You've Added The Truly Wonderful Diamond Snow Plus A
Wonderful Frame.
Number Two Has To Be My Utmost Favourite I Just Love The Colour Combination That You've Used
The Cream/ Black Polka Dot Paper Works So Very Well, (From Your Stash) I'm Pleased To Say I Have This Very Beautiful
Stamp (As I'm A Stamper At Heart But Now Include Your Dies In My Cards)
It's Also Wonderful To See You've Used Last Year's "Snowflake Border Die" I Have This And It's
Extremely Exquisite I Love How You've Cut It Out In Black As Like Yourself I Love To See Black On
Cards But If Not Other Colour Combination's Can Be Used, Sue I Really Hope Every Friday Is
Going To Be A Double "Christmas Card Day" It Gives Me So Many Wonderful Ideas.
Sue My Wonderful Friend Take Great Care Thank You So Very Much For Sharing, You Inspire Me Each And
Every Day, And I Can't Begin To Tell You How Very Grateful I Am, I Truly Appreciate Everything You Do, Thank You So Very Much...
Warmest Fond Wishes To Wonderful Colin And Heather
Love And Huge Hugs To Yourself
Love From Sam xxx
Hugs To "All" Wilsonettes
Huge Hugs To Steph.
Hi Sue - both these cards are beautiful, the second one is my sort of Christmas card though and I think it is stunning in the cream and black. Love what you've done with the cottage scene. It has inspired me to get down and do more stamping! Sending best wishes
YvonneMayxx
Two lovely cards today Sue, a great start to the double days. I love the Ray of light embossing folder which works so well with the Madonna & child & the snowflake border, which I didn't manage to get last year. Number one is definitely my favourite. Thank you!
Hi Sue, two beautiful Christmas cards. I like them both for different reasons but card one has the edge for me being so elegant.
Good Morning Sue two beautiful cards this morning and I adore them both and the second one is just stunning it makes me feel like its winter already. hugs Shirleyxxx
Hi Sue, I am so pleased to see Christmas double days back as I need all the inspiration I can get :-) I love both of these cards equally for different reasons but I have to go with the second one as I have all the ingredients required!
Frances
Hi Sue
The black card is truly vintage, and l bet it would look stunning done in different colours
Margaret xx
Both lovely cards Sue, it's difficult to choose one over the other because they are both so different. I think I will have to go for the first one but only because I don't like the creamy colour of the second.
Hugs to all in need of them today,

Hi Sue and everyone.
Two lovely cards, different in any ways but so perfect
for x-mas. Thank you also for the cards and tutorial the
last few days, they are all great.
Well wishes to everyone who are not so good at this moment in time.
Hope you all have a better day ,take care.
Had a fabulous day yesterday meeting up with some of my blog
friends that I got contact with thanks to first Sue's blog and
then joining Sandra's, "Cotswold Crafter" Blog, still got a hoarse
voice from all talking and laughing. Nearly Ally Pally so hope to
meet many of you there.
Hugs to all Wilsonette's and my good friends,
Maria x
I really enjoy the Xmas Double Days, this one is no exception. Two stunning cards.
Hi Sue
Two gorgeous cards today I love them both but If I had to choose a favourite it
would be the beautiful Nativity scene its just magic.
Hugs to all
Annx without an "e"
I love both these but especially the black and cream one - so elegant.
Many thanks,
Sue Mac
I just love both these cards Sue, so very different but beautiful....the black and cream has to be my favourite....luv Ursula xx
Beautiful creations from Lianne Morrison in england
Dear Sue
So pleased that double Christmas card Friday is back. I love them both, I have started my Christmas cards which I will use all your dies again this year. Thanks love Michelle xxx
Hi Sue
Wow, two beautiful Christmas cards today. I like them both, but doesn't the Ray of Light die look lovely done in the Aqua card. Must also get the cosy cottage scene stamp.
I particularly love what you have done with the Ray of Light background and Nativity dies in your first card, showing that you don't have to use the whole image. I actually have these dies and am looking forward to using them this year. Your second card is delightful. My fave part is the border snowflake die cuts.
Susan x
Forgot to comment yesterday, what a numpty.
Love both of today's very different cards.
I am now the proud owner of both sets of Sue's double pierced squares as I ordered the first set yesterday afternoon and they arrived this morning, great price too :) As I tend to make square cards it made sense to invest and I watched John showing how well the rectangles layered up on an old recording so decided it was time to bite the bullet.
I can feel the Christmas crafting urge starting to build so need to move some craft supplies around.
My Grandson is going to come over and make some Christmas cards, date to be arranged. He is a lovely boy but very full on so I thought it would give my daughter a break and it's about time I acted like a Grandmother. I am taking him to the cinema next week too.
I am still very, very tired so torn whether to visit my daughter, do housework or craft as I don't have the energy to do more than one of the options.
Sorry not to comment on everyone's news will try and remember notebook tomorrow.
Sending love n hugs to you all xxx
Yippee !! It's Christmas Double Day again!
I know , I need to get out more! Two lovely cards but the first one gets my vote! I bought the ray of Light Die and it's really beautiful!
Be good everyone! Love to all,
Myra xx
Lorraine, I hope that whatever has you so tired eases up! Being a Grandma is so hard when you are tired or sick all the time. I know because our 4 year old granddaughter lives with us full time and I have health issues that leave me sick and tired all the time! I treasure every moment with her but some days I am not sure I will make it through!! (((HUGS))) and prayers being sent your way!
Sue~ Both of these cards are breath taking in their own way! I especially love the second one!! Vintage is so pretty!! TFS!
Hi Sue
It's never too early to see your beautiful Christmas cards, I love the ray of light die used as a background and the gorgeous stamp in the 2nd card, thank you so much for sharing.
Kitty hope you can get back to crafting soon
Caring hugs to all in need of one especially Tracy and Wheelybad xx
Hugs and best wishes everyone
Pat
YAY!!! It's Christmas Double Days time again. I love hav ing Christmas in August! What a nice start, Sue. Both cards are delightful in different ways. I like the simplicity of the first card, it's really quite striking. The second card is divine...I especially love the stamp of the snowy cottage, doesn't the smoke coming from the chimney look inviting.
It's another weird weather week isn't it. Down here in my part of the country it seems to be pouring rain one day and brilliant sunshine the next but even the very wet days have been humid. What we need is a raging thunderstorm to totally clear the air, I can put up with the heat but have never been very good with humidity (I remember being in Chicago one August and it was like walking into a solid wall of wet heat when we left the hotel...not nice!).
Happy Friday to everyone and here's to a great weekend :)
Bejay xx
Hi Sue. WOW Its double day fridays again. I love this time of year as we get double the inspiration from you and you havent failed with your first one of the year. These two cards are gorgeous, fantastic, stunning, wonderful and beautiful i could go on and on lol. The first one with the aqua ray of light just makes it pop and the second in the black and cream is very dramatic. I cant choose a favourite as i love both of them. I dont have the cosy cottage stamp yet lol but i have a one that is similar that i got last year so i will have a go at making these two cards just with a different stamped image. Thanks for two beauties and have a lovely weekend.
Best Wishes.
Denise T x
Hi Sue,
Love both cards. Both so different yet so beautiful.
Love Val in Spain x
Hi Sue. I like both cards but I think I prefer the simplicity of the first one. I don't know why bit I always think of Mary in blue and white and so the colours of this one really work for me.
Lisbeth
Both cards are lovely, Sue, but I love the Madonna and Child one most. It has always been so difficult to buy religious dies, and I'm glad to see that seems to be changing! Jo xx
Both cards are beautiful. I do favor the Madonna and Child. I like the simplicity of the design, even though I know it is full of layers and techniques. I am always in awe of your ability to create raised and recessed dimensions in your designs. I am working on learning these techniques!
Such beautiful cards!!
Hi Sue
Both cards are beautiful.
Anne M xxx
Good afternoon lovely Sue and her crafty crew!
Words can't express just how excited I am to see the beginning of the twofer Friday, Christmas in August? And why not!
The only real problem being that it is just so difficult picking a favourite, particularly when the designs are just so different.
Card no. 1 is striking yet clean and simple at the same time. The Ray of light background die is very eye catching in the lovely blue cardstock and really enhances the Nativity die in the foreground....love the touch of bling too! The noble collection can really add that finishing touch of professionalism to a card, the circles are going to be so useful over the festive period and the frames add the perfect finishing touch.
Card no.2 involves something altogether more traditional. You excel at stamping and I always love he results. What a welcome appearance for the snowflake border, one of my favourite dies from last year, it works so well with the focal element. Love the addition of some bling to the stamped image. I can't choose a favourite from such differing designs, love them both in their own right.
Had a dodgy night, woke this morning having had a seizure so I really shouldn't be on the Web but I simply can't resist my daily blog fix:-) I was meant to go out for my Caci facial this afternoon but didn't feel recovered enough....decided to have a restful afternoon watching crap daytime tv instead, the only danger being that I could well end up in a boredom induced coma:-)
I heard from Yvonne earlier, she sends her apologies but she has had some bad news, a friend of hers mother and sister have both been diagnosed with breast cancer and the news has hit her hard. She will be back with gusto soon but needs time to digest this awful development. Sending her massive hugs, hopefully I'll speak to her properly tomorrow.
Elaine, so glad you've had a few nights peace and quiet, but what a great idea to invest in some earplugs, that might be the answer to your prayers. What a shame that Andrews health has dipped, hope he picks up again in time to get some fishing done.
Lorraine, the mind is always willing but the body just won't co operate...I know just how frustrating this can be but all you can do is prioritise what is most important to you. Hope you have a nice time whatever you decide and don't suffer afterwards.
Maria, sounds like you had a riot, it would be lovely to meet you all at Ally Pally...what day do you plan to go on?
Tracy, my cards are suspect as it is without having consumed litres of vino beforehand:-) glad you had a great time though, crafting can be great therapy when done with friends....pity I don't have any then:-)
Sending hugs to Wheely bad, Beth Theresa , Frances, P, Pam, pat, Tina, Linda, Rebecca, Jan, Alison and all my blog buddiesxxx

Would love to meet u in Glasgow sometime if ur free maybe a wee lunch and a blether? I'm so jealous ur going to ally pally wish I was going too :-( xxx
Beautiful, both are lovely but I think number two is my favourite today
Both cards are absolutely stunning and I don't usually go for the nativity style of card but in this format it is definitely a winner and my favourite of the two posts.
Hi Sue and everyone
Two fantastic cards today. Not sure I really have a favourite. I like them both in their different ways.

The image is just so pretty and traditional.
Hi Sue, 2 beautiful cards. My choice would be the first one , simple and clean but class. Hugs, Ivy C x
Two beautiful cards but the first one is totally stunning and more my taste with the frames although I don't do religious cards but love it anyway!!!

Hello Sue
Two very different cards both beautiful but I think the first just has the edge.

What a fantastic treat you have given us today. Your cards are as always inspiring. And todays are no exception.
Thank you for your wonderful inspiration. You really are a great inspiration .
Thank you, sweet dreams. Brenda
Christmas already. I've just ordered a couple of your sets of Christmas dies ready to start my own cards. Need to get started soon. Loving the cards today.
Hi Sue. WOW !!! Not one, but two fantastic Christmas cards today !!! I do really like both of them. The Nativity card is great, with your lovely new Nativity die and the Ray of light background die. I love the colours of this one and the frame is fab !!! It just makes the card so classy and elegant.
The second card with the snowflake border dies is definately my favourite of these two cards. I think the this border is one of my favourites of all your Christmas dies Sue. I really love it. The snowflake frame is really pretty and I love how you have coloured the cottage scene stamp. The whole card is just the sort of card that I like to make. Lovely colours to. Thank you for sharing these wonderful Christmas cards today. Sending lots of love to you Sue from Tres x x x
