Hello there my crafty friends! It has been absolutely ages since I did an all white card! I just felt the need to sit down and make one recently so I hope you like it. I admit that I have shied away from them because my photographic skills (or rather lack there of) have not been able to do them justice. I was relatively pleased that you can see the detail in these pics so I decided to go ahead and post it. I started by cutting an aperture with the
Fiji die in the upper portion of a
piece of coconut white card. I embossed the card with the
Jacobean Floral embossing folder to add texture. I added a layer of mounting foam to the back to raise it. Next I cut the decorative die from the
Fiji using the centre hexagon to cut another aperture in another piece of
coconut white, then centred it behind the first aperture and trimmed the edges to match. I stamped my sentiment in
Black Archival ink and centred it in the aperture in the
Fiji and added it with mounting foam. I made several different styles of flowers using the
Striped Nasturtium and the Beaded Starflower and seated them diagonally across the card. I accented the flowers with leafy bits cut from the top of the
Family Tree die. The card was completed with a white on white pierced mat layer. The finished dimensions are 6 3/4" x 8 1/4" in size.
I do apologise that I haven't gotten to the blog candy drawing as we have hit our goal (and surpassed it even!) I will try to get it posted up on the blog for later on this afternoon so please check back to see if your name has been drawn. All for now, Sue x

Beautiful card, as were yesterday's too. What a stunner.
Elaine, I was so sorry to read your post. Poor Helen and Andrew must be in a dreadful state, very very sad news, as if they didn't have enough to burden them. This of course will affect you so much too. My deepest sympathies to the whole family, you are all in my thoughts and prayers.
Tina, I hope you are coping well. I think of you often.
Tina, good news that Peter is doing okay. Not too long now to his appointment.
Denise, nice to see you back, hope you are feeling better.
Keep well and safe everyone. Hugs to all.
Love this card,so elegant and your pictures show it beautifully.

Morning Sue. The shows I've managed to catch up with so far have been lovely and so inspirational. I must say that considering you're jet lagged you look so well and bright.
Congratulations on teaching your goal, and this is such a gorgeous card to start the week with. I adore white on white or any tone on tone cardstock, just something about it that makes a card look classic, I couldn't ask for a prettier card to start my birthday with plus I have a selection of surprise dies to look forward to and I'm so excited to see what my wonderful man has treated me to, I'm keeping everything crossed that I will receive a couple of your new shadow box accessories so I can do some crafting while we're away over Christmas and New Year's.
Thank you for starting my 21st birthday with a beautiful stunning card. Hope you are having a restful time away Pam.
Sending extra special hugs to you Sue and enjoy your day xxx
Hello Sue, well this card is just out of this world, so very classic and elegant, and the pictures really show the detail. Have a great day everyone. Bx
Morning Sue.
Thank you so much for all the shows you were Brilliant I didn't see any sign of jet lag, I hope you get a good rest now even though you said you are back in the States after the hols.
Today's card is so beautiful Thank you.
Take care and have fun Kitty.
Good morning Sue. Beautiful card, love the way the eye's drawn in to the centre. Brilliant shows yesterday, so lovely to have you back on screen.

OMG what a stunning card, white on white is so classical, the different flowers really make this card exceptional - thank you Sue! 💐
Congratulations on reaching and exceeding your blog posts.
Pam, June hope you are ready for Christmas.
Peter was brighter yesterday, actually ate and drank more. Even had his first mince pie, and I have found putting meals on a tea plate rather than a dinner plate seems to work.
Love and crafty hugs to all

Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, oh wow todays card has blown me away, how beautiful it looks and your photographic skills certainly do it justice, I love everything about it and will certainly be having a go at this one, it is amazing.
Watched your shows on Hochanda, you certainly are the queen of dies and your designs are awesome.
Congratulations on reaching and passing your blog goal, you so deserve it.
Pam I hope you are enjoying your break.
Elaine, what can I say to ease things for you, Andrew, Helen and all your family, such a tragic thing to happen - my thoughts and prayers are with you all, be there for each other, stay strong, have lots of hugs and tears and talk about him, the good and bad times. special hugs to you all. xxx
Tina T, pleased that Peter is doing well, smaller plates do the trick, and I bet he enjoyed the mince pie.
I am still doing cards and things so way behind this year. I am going to make a vow here and now that I make my cards earlier and get them ready for posting in NOVEMBER 2017, I hate all this last minute rush, yes I know I have had a lot going on but I need to get myself organised, lots of craft sorting out in the new year.
Got the dreaded dentist this afternoon, how I hate going.
Thinking of everyone of is suffering or needs a special hug.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
Stunning card, so pretty & elegant.

Stunning card, I love your all white cards, I wouldn't have thought to do this before I caught your early cards on TV several years ago and now they are some of my favourites xx
Morning Sue, A stunning white on white card.

Good Morning Sue and all. A WOW card this morning , so beautiful .White on white is just stunning. I really enjoyed watching your shows yesterday.
Hugs and well wishes all round. Wendy
Beautiful card Sue, I could see this with a touch of frosting.
Absolute elegance, Sue, love white-on-white and this is wonderfully structural. Your photography always spot-on, always so detailed - wish I was half as good. One of my all time favourites (from long ago) was a w-o-w featuring the good old labels 22.
Saw some of the shows, great demos as usual and my the tree was so popular.
Elaine - so very sorry for Helen and Andrew, what a dreadful blow. Thoughts are with you all.
Hugs all round - you okay Wheely, PP, Laine, Norah? All missed.

Hello Sue and all
Amazing white on white card, love the dies, flowers and the elegance of this card.
The detail can be easily seen too, once Christmas is over I intend to do some real creating and you have me thinking white on white now.
Only 2 cards to finish off now, finally got moving, the garden is missing out this year, nearly have all presents and only food shopping after that. I bet we are all just waiting to sit down on Christmas Eve when it is too late to worry any more !!!
hugs

Absolutely beautiful.
Beautiful , beautiful card Sue.
Thank you all for your thoughts and Prayers ,Helen was coping a lot better yesterday she managed to have some lunch and promised to have some supper after i left.
I think Helen will feel better after they have broken the sad news to her Mum so
we are going over to her Mums Home this morning to tell her , Helen saw her mum just over a week ago and she didn't recall who she was at first , so Helen seems to think she wont take it in and that will be a blessing really .
Sorry to keep it short as we are leaving at 9.00
Wishing you all a good day
Lots of cuddles and hugs to you all.

Hello Sue
Such an elegant card I love your tone on tone cards. Stephanie a big happy birthday enjoy your day. Elaine you and your family are in my thoughts take care. June I don't think anybody likes dentists my childhood dentist was called butcher smith with good reason he used to take out teeth without anaesthetic and shout if you cried.
Hi Sue,
Always love your white-on-white cards and this is no exception. It would be perfect for a winter birthday although I wouldn't be able to resist adding some glitter somewhere...lol
Enjoyed your shows yesterday, always inspirational.
Izzy
Hi Sue. A very pretty card today. You do seem to have done it justice with your photography skills! I love cards that have lots of different styles of flowers on them and as I seem to have most of your flower dies I can't see any reason why I shouldn't be able to achieve a similar effect.
Lisbeth
Hi Sue,

A truly elegant card I love white on white except I always manage to get a dirty smudge on mine It's usually in such a space that even a butterfly won't disguise it
Hi Sue
How lovely to see one of your white on white cards today, this one is a real beauty. Thank you so much for sharing it with us. I will be playing catch up with your shows today.
Love Diane G xxx
Elaine I hope Helen managed to ear something else yesterday and the trip to see her mum wasn't too upsetting. Sometimes it can be a blessing in disguise when they don't take in such sad news. Sending hugs to you all. Xxx
Sending hugs to Tina and Peter Tina June Sharon and Tracey xx.
This is a beautiful and elegant card - love the white on white and its one of my favourite concepts I've adopted from your beautiful posts. Funny how it isn't as effective with tonal colours! Makes a beautiful wedding, engagement or anniversary card as well as other occasions. Just stunning.
Good Morning Sue,
This is such an elegant card and I love the embossing folder and the dies you have used.
The beautiful pictures you have given us of this gorgeous card really show off your photography skills as well!

An elegant card today. I think this is the card on your Hochanda show that I was trying to get a long look at while it was being shown. So glad to get a close-up photo to study. You did a marvelous job photographing it. I enjoyed your shows on Hochanda. Love those pixie powers. I, too, like white on white cards. Wishing you a beautiful Christmas week.
