Good Sunday morning all! I found a couple of cards that both use the Belgian Background for today's double day showing. First up, I cut the Belgian Background out of the Classic Elegance paper. I backed it with vellum for a soft look, then cut the centre of it out. I added mounting foam to the back to raise it for dimension. Next I cut the decorative die from the Antwerp out of coconut white card. I seated the background over it, then added a piece of wisteria card behind it. I stamped my sentiment and cut it out and mounted it in the centre of the card. I used Wax paper to cut several of the Exquisite poppies to add around the centre and I tied a bow with some purple Bakers Twine and added it below the sentiment. I completed the card with white and wisteria mats The finished dimensions are 6 1/4" x 8 1/2" in size. Scroll down for card number two.
For card number two, the Belgian Background was cut out of coconut white card twice, leaving the cutting edges out until the very centre one. I placed a thin strip of mounting foam between them but added more on the bottom to raise the overall background. I stamped my sentiment and added it to the aperture in the centre. I used the Background Noble Rectangles to add a frame around it. On a separate piece of white card, I added a sticky sheet, then peeled the backing off and coated it with silvery mica powder. I added the background over the mica piece so it showed through from the front. I finished the piece with a simple white on white mat with piercing. The finished dimensions are 6 3/4" x 8 1/2" in size.

Happy crafting.

Good morning Sue. Two amazing cards, especially like the dimension on the second one.
Congratulations to all the winners. Hugs to all. Sue xxx
Awesome colors and layering! Beautiful cards!
Two beautiful cards,love that background die.
Congratulations to the winners.
So beautiful, xxx
I love those two - especially the one with the patterned paper.
Hi Sue. Fabulous cards, love them both. Congratulations to the winners :-) Have a lovely day. Hugs to all xxx
Morning Sue.
Thank you two very lovely cards,
Thank you for all the great shows yesterday, I still have two to catch up on.
That is something to look forward to.
Congratulations to the winners.
Take care all Kitty.
Two gorgeous cards. The elegance paper looks so great with the Belgian back ground. I liked the second card but when you showed me side view it really popped. Thank you again for so much inspiration and ideas.Have a wonderful day.
Sunday Smiles to you Sue. What gorgeous cards you have for us today, I just love how you give us the option to use the same die set in several different ways. Why some designers think it's ok to ask a fortune for their dies when they have one use and one use only disgusts me, even down to the smallest of dies in a 5 die set can be used for decoration or to hold a sentiment with your collections and that's a sign of someone that crafts and knows exactly what we need and want from our dies. Two really pretty cards Sue. Hope you managed to speak with Heather at some point yesterday and that she had a wonderful birthday.
We are out to celebrate with our daughter her wonderful hubby and our adorable Lottie Beth as it's the first of many birthday parties today, so much has been organised for the young one's there is a big organisation called Baby Foundations that Lou took her baby too as the months went by, it's a development fun type play with songs and actions for mummy and child, so they have been asked to go, quite a few babies from Lou's group are going too, soft play and ball pool, so after all the time and effort our daughter has put in organising this day I just hope it goes well ! Mind you, all this for a first birthday that won't be remembered by Lottie - let's say our age must be showing because we've had our own thoughts about this and I dare say those of our age that read this may be on the same page lol but if that's what mummy and daddy want who are we to object lol but it will be so lovely to see her with her baby friends.
I've rambled on enough so I'll congratulate the 3 winners of the comment game, thank you for some absolutely beautiful inspiration which I've quickly run through and will watch properly tomorrow, and leave you with my usual hug for the day xxx
Good morning Sue and crafters all,
Two beautiful cards today, love them both!!!
The wax paper poppies look so pretty and what an unusual way of using was paper!!!!
The mica background is another way of using card bits up and adhesive sheets.
Loved you Hochanda shows, lovely demo's and tips. Nice one giving the presenters workout jobs using the Platinum machine.
Congratulations to this weeks winners!!!!!
Well Peter is ok at the moment, no Drs or hospital appointments this week so that makes a change. Only a funeral on Friday of a very old friend, an Irish lady that came over to the UK to work as a nurse, as here family wouldn't let her carry on being a midwife over there she was 94 years old.
Peter is fed up because the Sky tv keeps breaking up, and it is Thursday afternoon before we can get an engineers visit!!!!!!
Pam you are so kind with all your lovely comments.
June Smith, well girl hope you have got rid of your cold, as operation date is getting nearer.
Love and crafty hugs to all who need them,
Tina T xxxx
Lovely cards Sue.
Two beautiful cards Sue. Like the way you've used your papers on no1 so delicate looking. Congratulations to winners. JJxx
Such a delicate look,they are both wonderful cards, Congratulations to all the winners xx
Good Morning Sue
Thanks for your lovely shows giving us plenty of tips and ideas, love the way you share.
Today's cards are both beautiful I love them both such different options with the same die.
Have a good restful day.
Jan
Two lovely cards today Sue! The first is my favourite but only because of the gorgeous flowers made from wax paper, what a clever idea, which make look so delicate. I bet the mica powder on the second card looks fabulous in real life.
Congratulations to all the winners! Debra x
Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, I so enjoy double days (I'm greedy really) and you have spoiled us today with these 2, I think no 2 just edges it for me, I love your papers and the die compliments them. Hope you managed to speak to Heather yesterday and that she enjoyed her birthday and is safe and well. I have so enjoyed all your shows on Hochanda and am doing some instructions for the ones I want to make.
Steph, you I know where you are coming from regarding Lottie and her birthday parties, although she will not remember it I am sure there will be loads and loads of photos that can be shared with her as she grows up and may even show her own children, lovely keepsakes, hope they have a wonderful time.
Tina T and Peter, pleased that all going to plan. Sorry to hear about the funeral for a friend this week, even though she was 94 it is still sad.
Pam yes hopefully the cold is going, only 4 days to go now, at least I don't look like Rudolph with the red nose, maybe if I don't talk too much they may not notice I have had a cold, - my hubby thinks they will cancel it when they see me.
Maureen and George, Happy Golden wedding anniversary.
Hugs to Tina and Mick, Elaine and Andrew, Bejay (hope you are feeling better), Tracey and anyone else I have forgotten.
Congratulations to all the winners.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx

Two elegant lovely cards Sue, can't pick a favourite but love the idea of using waxed paper for the flowers. Thank you. Xx
Loving both of these. I think the first one is my favourite though because of the lovely flowers. X

Congratulations to all the winners.
Hugs x
Heather T
Two very nice cards today, Sue, love that Belgian background. Think preferring the second, really like the simple elegance of it. Saw some of the shows and will watch rest on catch up - all enjoyable and some nearly sell-outs (or perhaps sell-outs as didn't see later shows) so well done you.
Fluffycat Frances - so sorry, didn't see your post yesterday. Do hope your husband is getting on well, a frightening thing to happen.
Lorraine F - glad the mojo came back, think we all go through 'quiet' crafting times occasionally!
Missing the battling duo - you two okay??
Well done to the three comment winners.
Happy Sunday all.

Hello Sue,
One fab background die set, two great cards!...like how you've used the lines in the patterned paper to help frame the focal point on the first and love the waxy flowers - I think the second clean and simple design is my favourite today though, it really shows off those elegant arches in the diecut.

Hi Sue,
both gorgeous cards, but the first one has the edge for me - think it's because of your paper pad which I adore.
I would have never thought it but all these Xmas cards I'm seeing on your blog and Facebook have really gotten me in the mood - all I have to do now is find time :-)
Hugs, Rose

Hello Sue,
Today's cards are beautiful but if I have to choose a favourite, it's number 2.
Congratulations to the comment winners.
Thank you all for your good wishes yesterday and today, you are a grand bunch of ladies. Our daughter gave us a surprise party and it was a surprise. It was humbling that so many people, young and old, gave up their evening to help us celebrate.
Elaine, sorry to read that Andrew is in pain.
Tina and Peter, Tina and Mick, I hope all is going well with you.
June Smith, glad you are on the mend for next week.
Steph, Lottie will be having the time of her life, even though she won' remember.
I'm off to get ready for a surprise Luncheon. Oh we are being spoiled.
Love to all
Maureen xx
Love both but card number to appeals due to its more simplistic look, but both are lovely and love all your background dies
Morning Sue, two beautiful cards for us today. I think number two is my favourite as its so clean and simple. Love that you show two cards using the same dies.
Wendyx

Pat L. It's next sat my visit to craftworld. I'm needing more white card as I'm almost out of it. Plus I'd like to get the wee baby animals. They are so darn cute. If anything else jumps in my basket without hunny noticing will be a bonus lol x
Two beauties, tfs.

Hi Sue
Two more very lovely cards.
Congratulation to the winners.

Beautiful cards Sue x xhazel
Hi Sue,
Love the way you have used the vellum on the first card, I really must try to remember that for toning down backgrounds. I have to admit though the 2nd one is mt favourite.
Beverley W
Hi Sue
The first card is simply gorgeous and before I read your details I thought the flowers were made from wax paper!
The second card is so beautiful and elegant
Congratulations to the comment winners... enjoy!
June x
These cards are so beautiful. I really want that background die :) I loved watching you yesterday, and now I'm watching all 5 shows again :)

Hello Sue.
Lovely Cards. I think the Belgian Background looks lovely cut out of the Elegance paper and the poppies look so delicate. I love the second card for its clean simplicity and I think it would work well as a male card. Thanks for sharing.
Congratulations Marion Bull, Shirley T and Ivy Cheong.
Best wishes
these are again gorgeous cards Sue.
Gr Karin
Two oh so beautiful cards today Sue, never thought of the idea of making wax paper flowers, really beautiful, the first card is my defo favourite, but they are both quite different in make up....thank you...a definite 'must try'.....luv Ursula xx
Hello Sue,
Two beautiful cards, you ARE spoiling us today.
Both are equally gorgeous.
Thank you for this wonderful Sunday treat.
Love and Hugs Brenda xxx
Good afternoon Sue and all your crafty crew
Well another two for one day. Love it
If I was pushed to choose I think it would be number two for me I think it's the lace effect that got me lol
Hope you are well and all your family are safe in Florida with this awful hurricane so many people in Haiti lost their lives
My heart goes out to them
Hugs to all that may need one
Congratulations to the comments winners enjoy
Theresa G xx
How different the two cards look using the same die. Beautiful. I would not have thought that wax paper would make such lovely flowers!
Hi Sue, lovely cards this morning, I love this background die, I've just ordered it.
Lori from Canada
Two lovely cards. I like the technique on the second but, without a doubt, the first one really grabs me.
Hopefully I will get to catch up on your recent shows today and tomorrow. I had two parching friends with me all day yesterday and one was staying over with me after our course finished on Friday so there was no opportunity for watching in real time and I can't record now which is a real bummer.
Teresa
Congratulations to the trio of lucky comment game winners! Enjoy your prizes!
Both are stunning cards but the first one speaks to my heart! LOVELOVELOVE it!! TFS!
Hi Sue
Two beautiful cards again today, I do like the background dies, so pretty. Thank you for sharing.
Love Diane G xxx
Tina funny you should say that about sky, ours kept loosing the picture for a few seconds on and off on Friday. Hubby reset the box and all was well. Hope you get it sorted soon. I'm sorry to hear about your friend but 94 is a grand age. Xxx
Maureen happy anniversary I hope you are being really spoilt xxx
Elaine I hope Andrews pain is sorted too, all being well it is the tissue healing again xxx
Sending hugs to Tina and mick and Tracey xxx
June hope you are on the mend xxx
Hello Sue,
We are being spoilt with another two lovely cards today! The second one is my favourite of the two. I've thoroughly enjoyed watching your Shows on Catch up . Still got two to watch! I loved how you made a holly strip out of a square Die!
Frances - (Flufficat) so sorry to hear about your husband . I'm just catching up! Do hope he is making a good recovery. Thinking of you.
Happy Birthday Lottie - I may be a day late !! It sounds like a busy weekend !
Take care everyone! It's been another lovely day here. Hope it is nice where you are!
Friends from across the pond - thinking of you!
Love to all, Myra xx
Hi Sue, Two gorgeous, gorgeous cards.
Congratulations to the lucky Winners.
Lots of love from Patricia xx
Both very pretty cards Sue, and though its lovely to see new designs, I just love when something is made with dies I already own. I will certainly have some fun with these two trying to put my own slant on them. I hate to copy another persons designs, but love when they make me think "outside the box" to create something new of my own.
Unfortunately I missed this weekend shows as we have been on holiday for two weeks and Hochanda does not show programs more than 7 days ahead. I have however got the shows from the weekend we went and the middle weekend (fingers crossed) and I may get to see some of this weekends shows on catch up - I do hope so.
Hugs

aka stitchingranny.
Two beautiful cards using the same die, & so different.
Hi Sue, two great cards today. It is amazing what you can do with one die to make it look so different every time, shame I don't have your imagination.
Lorraine F, Pam, 'P', Lynne L, Tracy & Myra - thank you all for your good wishes, hubby was looking much better when I visited this afternoon and actually has some mobility back in his leg but it looks like his arm and hand will take longer. No idea when I can get him home again though.
Congratulations to all of this week's comment game winners, enjoy playing with your prizes.
Frances
Good afternoon lovely Sue and her crafty crew!
A double delight for today using the same principal die whilst achieving very different results. The colour tones of the first card are soft and delicate aided by your beautiful paper pad. I love the effect of the flowers also, very fragile looking. Im a big fan of using vellum on a card, it really ups the sophistication and professional results are a given. The tone on tone nature of the second card makes the mica powder background all the more eye catching. Quite a CAS card, but very effective. Both cards are stunning and show the diversity of your dies. Many thanks for a valuable double day.
Well, i have really enjoyed watching your shows this weekend, im feeling spoiled now because its been four weeks in a row and im quite getting used to seeing you on our screens again....then you go and desert us again for sunnier climes, how could you, self, self, self!:-)
But seriously Sue, we so appreciate the effort that you have put in on our behalf this past month, you have worked like a dog:-), on the plus side is that now i am armed with plenty of ideas for my own festive creations.....though my bank account has taken a sever pounding in the process! I hadn't realised that there was to be another show with John next weekend....I'll really have my work cut out for me persuading my Mum to let me buy more dies when i have already spent a small fortune on what i like to call essentials:-( Any ideas that could be implemented without breaking the law would be appreciated:-)
Im still being driven....no pun intended...to distraction by the breakdown of my scooter. Its a lifeline when you struggle to walk any distance and therefore, not having it at my disposal is a nightmare. We waited all week for our neighbour to pump the tire...not his fault, he was poorly:-(....only to discover when i went to use it that we had in fact a puncture! Our Good Samaritan said that if we had any problems he would fix them but he's been AWOL all weekend.....i know, im sounding really impatient now, I don't mean to seem ungrateful though, im sure i can wait a few more days at a push, either that or get a taxi!
Maureen, congrats, what a milestone! Glad you are enjoying the celebrations, have a wee gin on me to celebrate...go on, you know you want to:-)
P, another foster baby to add to the list, will you ever be able to give them up when the time comes though, i know I couldn't! You're such a real softy, i darent ask just how many fur babies you actually have, i'd only be jealous:-) You must have a season ticket and executive box at the vets:-)
June, glad that you're feeling a bit better but don't be too upset if you have to miss your operation, its more important that you are fully fit for the anesthetic, fingers crossed though.
Wheels bad, hope you are okay?
Yvonne, sorry we couldn't have a chat the other night, hope you're feeling a bit brighter, you know where i am when you need brought back down to earth with a bump or two:-) Love to Kath and those handsome boys of yoursxxxx
Frances, sorry to hear about your hubby, i hope his recovery is swift, take care, you know where we arexxx
Huge hugs to my besties, maria, Pat, Pam. Theresa, tracy, lorraine , linda, lynda, beth, rebecca, DEb C, myra, maureen, norah and all the galsxxxx

What great dimension, two beautiful cards, live the colours too.
Such lovey cards Sue. Love your paper as well. The second card is the most striking for me, love the double image that you have created.
The Belgian background looks totally different in these two cards. Lovely.xx
Hi Sue,
Love the cards. So, so love the Belgum background, just had to rush to my nearest craft store and bought it. Now playing. Happy days. X
must say that i prefer the second one. very elegant, hugs xx
Hi Sue. This is still one of my very favourite dies and it is lovely to see how different the results can be when using different papers or card.
Lisbeth
we are being spoilt today with two beautiful cards.
I love them both and must say the die looks lovely cut out in that pretty
paper.
Definately one of my favourite dies.
Hello Sue
I love all your flowers so I am really surprised to say I prefer the second one. Frances so sorry to hear about your husband you must have been so worried. June will keep my fingers crossed that you are better in time for your op. Elaine so sorry Andrew is in pain. Congratulations all the comment winners.
Two gorgeous card Sue!
Loved all your shows, have them recorded to watch again.
Two gorgeous cards Sue. Hard to choose but my favourite is the first one using the beautiful papers X

Hi Sue,
Hey, I'm a winner!!!! So excited. Your two cards are absolutely gorgeous. Many thanks.
Much love,
Shirley T. xxx
Superb cards, must say I prefer the crisp lines of the second card though.
Congratulations to the comment game winners.
I have been busy crafting today. I made my first channel card (diagonal) with paper grouping and gliding flakes. I am very pleased with it. Also finished off some other cards. Then I wanted to do some scrapbooking but couldn't find the photos. So I have ordered some new ones. Also had to order a new handmade by me stamp as the other one is hiding.
Sorry for not catching up on everyone's news.
Sending love n hugs to you all xxx
Hi Sue,
Amazingly different looks from the same die.
I love them both.
Thank you for sharing.
Véronique L
Hi Sue. Two gorgeous cards made from the same die. The first one with those beautiful papers and stunning wax paper poppies and the second for it clean, crisp lines. Love them both. Congrats to all the lucky comment winners. Thanks for all the great shows and fantastic demos. I did say that i didnt want anything but waiting for my package to arrive so i can have a play lol.
Best Wishes.
Denise T x
Both card are beautiful. Who else would have thought to make flowers from wax paper? They are gorgeous.
Take care everyone.
Hello Sue and all
the Belgian background is exquisite and just can't pick between these two cards but am definitely ordering this die, too lovely.
Have been away for the weekend so will catch up on comments over the next couple of days
hugs

Two beautiful cards Sue,love the Belgian background so pretty,thank you,Linda x
Hi Sue, I love these two cards and bought the Belgium collection earlier this year so I thought that I would copy the first card and make it myself.I have found though that the Antwerp die that I have got does NOT fit inside the centre of the background die. The background die covers the two long patterned edges of the other die, have you any suggestions how I can make it work.
two very lovely cards, just great
