  1. So beautiful, gorgeous card. I love this Christmas card.
    Congratulations to Yvonne, enjoy your win.
    Tina, so glad that Mick has had the rig fitted and is home. Let's hope this works for him.
    Elaine, hope Andrew hears soon, he can do without the added stress .
    Yvonne, how dreadful that this has all cropped up now. As if hadn't been traumatic enough since you lost your lovely Steve, I hope you get this sorted soon.
    Lynda, hopefully this stent will make you all better, big hugs lovely lady, it will soon be over and you are all well again.
    Tina, hope Peter is feeling better and hadn't caught that nasty flu bug.
    Sharon, hope your daughter is recovering well.
    June, you are right but unfortunately their attitude is get out if you don't like it. Barbara is the loveliest lady you could meet and a good worker, it has really upset her and driven her to the edge. Keep well yourself and don't overdo the exercise.
    Tracey, the firsts are always the hardest to deal with even without your recent medical problems, good that you are getting help, wish we could take this pain away from you.
    Daily hugs to all on the blog.

  8. Morning Sue. WOW This is a beautiful card. Loving the shadow box dies. I have them all and i play for hours mixing them all up to get different looks. The little christmas dies are so cute and the poinsettias look gorgeous made with the vellum. Must get a gold pen to do the outside edge on the flowers as it give a beautiful finishing touch. Congratulations to Yvonne on winning a lovely card. Thanks for a great video and have a great weekend Sue.
    Best Wishes.

  10. I love your 'Happy Christmas' die. So far I have been using it in gold, shadowed with black. For a 'simple' die, it is one of my favourites. I hope you will do more with this font combination. Your card is beautiful.

  11. Morning Sue.
    A lovely sample of your shadow box this morning, they are such a brilliant idea, for those of us that have been making cards for some time (and still learning) to those that have just found this addictive, enjoyable, errr expensive 'hobby' they are not only great to work with, but easy too. For the new starter they will give them the confidence to know they can make 100's of variations now you have given us so many shadow box accessories, to those of us that have to make a card or several but don't feel up to making real time consuming cards, once you have the main shadow box die, the world is your oyster so to speak. I've got all your new most recent shadow box accessories on the top if Andy's list asterixed so he knows which will be the most valuable to me as far as market sales are concerned, for those going away at anytime of year that can't leave crafting at home (which I think maybe a lot of us here) what could be easier than cutting lots of shadow boxes and all the beautiful little extra's pack them all up with mats cut to side, glue, and Bob's your uncle, no withdrawal symptoms on holiday lol. And as we are doing that to escape from Andy's traumatic awful Christmas last year I shall be able to do just that, having one shadow box die in my collection means I can cut which ever accessories I get for my birthday a week before Christmas, prepare all the other things I need to make up several cards and because it will be far too cold for me to enjoy walking in the countryside, I shall also have something to do which I love too. So these dies are a valuable and beautiful addition to what we already have.
    I will finish my usual essay with a Saturday hug for you Sue and congratulate the new owner of Wednesday's lovely personal gift.
    Have an enjoyable day Sue xxx

  21. Morning Sue and crafters all,
    Lovely Christmas shadow box card, looks so different done in gold and white and vellum.
    I am in the process of doing one in Silver and white and vellum putting gilding polish on the vellum and finishing with a set of lights from DCWV that John had on his show a few weeks ago.
    Congratulations to Yvonne - on winning this weeks give away.
    Pam - hope you are feeling better and that work workplace is warm seeing you and colleagues have to work when I'll.
    June Smith - hope your knee is feeling easier and you are a bit more mobile.
    Peter has not picked up the flu bug, even before his illness he felt the cold. I have my extra flesh to keep me warm.
    Love and crafty hugs to all,

    Yvonne what an awful nightmare for you. My friend has decided to finally get married after many years of saying no so there are no legal issues when things happen. I hope the solicitor sorts it out quickly at at his expense! Xxx
    Tracey my sweetheart you are doing so well you are allowed so many wobbles after the year you've had. If you had been at work your regulars would know about dad and be sympathetic but from their view you've come out the other side of cancer and should be having the party of a life time. It's a difficult one. I hope the doctor can help meanwhile sending you a huge hug xxx

  73. Hi Sue, I love, love this card. I have this set and enjoy playing with the tree and all the little baubles etc. - thank goodness for tweezers! So far I have only made cards with traditional colours but I love the luxurious look of the milk and gold and will definitely give this a go. I enjoyed the video as always, thank you.

    Bejay - so sorry for your sister and the loss of her two dogs. Just wait until your kitten sees snow for the first time :-)
    PP Yvonne - we pay lawyers astronomical sums to get things right and it is beyond wrong that you now have all this hassle. I hope it gets sorted out quickly.
    Lynda - hoping all goes smoothly with your op, you will feel so much better afterwards.

  97. Oooh what a long list of ingredients, Sue, making a really splendid card. Lovely choice of colours and do like the vellum poinsettias, all so pretty. As ever, thanks for the video.
    PP - if ever there was a case made for making a will, this is it - but so sorry for all your unnecessary problems. Hope it's sorted soon.
    Nanna Tina - pleased Mick has his tube in at last, though of course realising that he would like to have managed without - has to be for the best. Well wishes to Pete and Andrew, too, also Sharon's daughter.
    Lynda - so sorry must have missed that you had lost Annie, just heartbreaking. Will be thinking of you on Monday.
    Tracy - wobblies definitely allowed!! Early days yet, you had quite a year and these 'firsts' are so difficult.

  102. Hello Sue
    Love this card I have to date made 20 Christmas cards using this die and all in cream and gold. I was only going to make them for the special people in my life but they are so easy I can't stop. Tracy you are allowed wobblies after what you have been through. I couldn't leave a blog comment yesterday because I become so upset on the day of children in need, I was sitting at the bedside of my dad at our local hospice watching the programme when he died and that was 16 years ago. Elaine how lovely of Bentley to reassure Andrew there are some good employers out there. My granddaughters go to Leighton academy which is just up the road and Bentley are actively involved in their school. Linda good luck on Monday.

  103. Hello Sue,
    I have watched the video and have learned lots! I have the wreath Die and it's very useful - however you have just provided me with another use for it! I watched John's Shows and John st had to buy a Shadow box set!!! I bought the gardening one and also the girlie Die set!
    I'm going to play in a little while and see what else I can fit in these boxes which is Christmas themed! I'm wondering if one of your Trees from last year's set would fit?
    Today's card is just gorgeous! How many favourites am I allowed??
    I smiled at Diane's comment about the gold pen slipping - that has happened to me too! It's a great tip though!
    Good news on Andrew's job! All these things help.
    Tracy - Blips are allowed ! It's very hard when we lose someone and it's their birthday , even our own birthday or Christmas . I found the first Mother's Day after I lost Mum incredibly difficult but I wouldn't have wanted her to come back and suffer any more! Thinking of you my dear! It isn't easy and you have been ill into the bargain!
    Congratulations to Yvonne on winning the jolly snowman! He will make you smile!
    Take care Everyone as it's so cold!
    Love Myra xxx

    This is elegant and I adore the colours you have used.
