Morning Sue, what a gorgeous card off to see how you got the beautiful butterflies. Congratulations to the lucky winner.
Nancyd xx
Lovely card Sue, it's gorgeous. Love that background.
Congratulations to lucky Sarah.
Pat, hope Sarah's review goes well in April. I bet she was thrilled with her pink sparkly hearing aid. I hope it helps her all round as she is such a little heroine and I know she loves her girly colours and sparkle.
June, you have such an array of craft workshops where you are, I'd love that.
Elaine, hope Andrew and Helen have a great weekend, it's promised to be sunny here but it still feels cold.
The twin sitting is going well so far, they are being very attentive, making sure I have a cup of tea, the right tv channel is on, craft iof course, and I'm knitting my Twiddlemuffs. They don't do this at my house . Kelly didn't know what Bryan had planned till they got to Newcastke airport, a trip to Belfast and a visit to the Titanic Exhibition. She was so excited, she is enthralled with the Titanic story, so he got that one so right.
Maria, good to hear your eyes are improving, true about seeing the dust but if you wear sunglasses to protect your eyes you won't see the dust then.
Have a great weekend everyone, hugs to all including missing and poorly friends.
Morning Sue.
Thank you a lovely card, so pretty.
We cannot have too many flowers and butterflies.
Take care and have fun Kitty.
Oops sorry forgot to congratulate Sarah.
Congratulations Sarah Have fun Kitty.
Lovely card, congratulations Sarah.
Hi Sue and everyone
Lovely card, like how you've stepped the butterflies down, not worded that correctly but hope you know what I mean. I still have not used pixies yet! Going to watch the video to see you in action.
Congratulations to Sarah.
Love Helen xxx
Wonderful card! The pixie powders never disappoint and the design is lovely.
Congratulations to Sarah on her win! Debra x
GM Sue. Great card. Lovely effect. Will watch video later as it's spring show day today. 4 craft classes entered but no card class this time. Happy weekend.
Lovely card Sue.
Morning Sue. Tell me, how do you get Pixie Powders sooo wrong ?! I can't get the pump action right, I either don't pump enough, too much or completely flood the poor Pixies till they are swimming for their life, it really hurts my fingers to use the pump action spritzers. I'm so glad you have the know how as it's such a pleasure to watch you create such gorgeous works of art. The Butterfly folder has to be a favourite go to of mine, and the Cascading Butterfly die is so versatile and has a hundred and one uses. I just love today's sample and 'know how' tutorial.
Many congratulations to Sarah. What a lovely start to your day enjoy your personal gift from Sue.
Have a lovely day whatever your plans are Sue. Sending love thanks and many hugs your way xxx
Morning Sue, love this card today and hooray we've got a video. Thank you so much!

Good Morning Sue
Beautiful background, gorgeous butterflies lovely card.
Jan x
Hi Sue, beautiful card, the butterflies are gorgeous and I love the way you have placed them.
Barbara V
Wow! Those Pixie Powders really show up beautifully on black. I think I might need them. LOL
Morning Sue,
Love pixie powders, but haven't used them on black card. After seeing your beautiful card today, I will give it a try. I just seem to get in such a mess with things like this and when I use glue it has a mind of its own and goes everywhere except where I need it, thank goodness for Grime Boss. Think I am too impatient really. Have a great weekend.
Congratulations to Sarah xx
Hugs xx
Dawn Searle
Hi Sue

Congratulations to Sarah Wrightson!!!
Love Marg
I love this die and the background is very dramatic.thank you
Hi Sue,
I adore these butterflies, they are so serene.
L Dewar
Fabulous card. I really must try pixie powders. I bought some ages ago but have never opened them. I didn't think I needed the butterfly dies as I have loads of butterflies but am beginning to regret it.
Congratulations to Sarah. Enjoy your card.
Baby Lola has chicken pox. Not a great surprise but the doctor has suggested she might get it again later as she's so young.
Have a great day. Hugs to all.
D xx
Good morning Sue,
A beautiful card, love the gorgeous Pixie Powder background!
Thank you for the tutorial and congratulations to Sarah. X
Good morning Sue
At first glance I thought what a dark background and when I really looked at it I thought Wow! I love the way the pixie powders look on black card! I have this butterfly die and absolutely adore it, you can get so many different looks with it. I enjoyed watching the video thanks for sharing!
Congratulations Sarah!

Lovely card, very striking.
Michele
Good morning Sue,
Love today's card, I have the Die and love using it, it is so versatile.
Pixie Powders are used a lot here, Robert our younger Grandson LOVES using them. I use his backgrounds for lots of cards.
Happy Twin sitting Pam, enjoy every minute, children grow up so quickly. The Titanic exhibition is amazing, I am sure it will be well enjoyed and create lots of memories.
Congratulations Sarah, lucky lady!
Have a wonderful day everyone ... remember to change your clocks tonight!!
Patricia xxx
Hi Sue , gorgeous card the pixie powders make such dramatic backgrounds. I have not got any yet as the bank manager says no, but they are on my wish list. Congratulations Sarah. Not alot of time to watch video at moment but will catch up later. Crafting taking a back seat at the moment as partner suffering badly from his Parkinsons, but hopefully if we can stabilize him a bit more I can grab some me/craft time. Have a great weekend
love Hilary
Striking card Sue with the White against such a dark marble like background!
It is just a fab card. I like the texture behind the butterfly cut outs.
Have a lovely weekend everyone. It's a great start so far!
Big hug
Julie Elli
Hi Sue a gorgeous card the background is so dramatic i love those pixie powers Congrats Sarah .
Catherine hugs xx
Morning Sue. What a dramatic looking background but its gorgeous so is the card. The pixie powders have a totally different look on black card compared to white card. I have not tried the pixie powders on black card but after watching your video it is something i will be playing with over the weekend. Thanks for another great video Sue. Congratulations to Sarah on winning Wednesdays beautiful card. Have a lovely weekend everyone and we have beautiful sunshine again this morning. Yesterday was wall to wall sunshine all day keeping my fingers crossed that this weather lasts for a few days or weeks LOL.
Best Wishes.
Denise T x
Love this card and I think pixie powders are great, very dramatic on black card. Unfortunately I am unable to watch the video, for some reason it doesn't want to play for me, so will try again later. Off to Doncaster Race Course tomorrow, very excited. Have a good weekend Sue. Thank you. Xx
Such a pretty card. Will definitely be trying pixie powders on black. xx
Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, a lovely card today, you can never go wrong with butterflies can you. Will watch the video later.
Pam, I run a craft group every Wednesday morning from 9-12 in our local church hall, there are about 14 of us. Then I go to an all day workshop once a month and a 10-1 workshop once a month (both in a community hall - run by a craft company) other than that there is nothing round here which is why I started my own. I must admit though I get lots of inspiration from my favourite blogs, Hochanda, Facebook, Pinterest and friends, there is a wealth of knowledge out there. Enjoy the twin sitting.
Congratulations to Sarah.
Dragonsnap - my youngest son had chickenpox twice, it is surprisingly common.
I reiterate everything Pam has said.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
Morning Sue, wow the pixie powders look so different on black. This butterfly due is lovely, it is on my list.
Love Rosemarie X X
Off to watch video later The card looks gorgeous with Pixie Powders on black
Morning Sue,
Wow, those pixie dust powders certainly look divine on black card.
A stunning card for today.
Dragonsnap2, my youngest daughter also caught chickenpox at an early age from her elder siblings. She didn't get it again but did suffer terribly from shingles at the age of seven. Poor Lola, hope it's not too bad for her and her siblings.
Comfort blanket hugs for all our missing friends and for those in pain or discomfort.
Love 7 hugs

Hi Sue
What a lovely card today, the butterfly die is pushing to be my next purchase very soon after seeing some beautiful cards made with it by the naughty 9 and of course you too! I haven't tried pixi powders on black card -yet- but I feel this must be rectified very soon. I must point my brother in law at your video too as I gave him some pixie powders for Christmas and he was really taken by what he could achieve with them. Thank you for sharing such a delight with us.
Love Diane G xxx
Congratulations to Sarah on winning the card xxx
Pam as always you've said it all so well. Sounds like the twins are nana sitting rather than the other way round! xxx
Hilary I hope your partner improves soon xxx
Dragonsnap oh no poor baby Lola I hope she's not too poorly. I hope you're not next in line for it, it's not pleasant as an adult! Xxx

Hi sue and crafters.
Oooooh I do love ur butterflies! Love the background too. In fact what's not to love about the whole card it's georgeous xx
Hi Sue
I can't tell you how much I love your cascading butterflies especially with the pixie powders background, this die makes a beautiful card yet really quick and simple, everyone should have it. Congratulations to Sarah on winning your beautiful Wednesday card.
Myra, Saba, Laine and Pam thank you and anyone else I've missed for your good wishes for Sarah, she is a very brave wee girl and faces everything with a smile
Love and hugs to everyone
Pat
Hi Sue, I love the Cascading Butterflies. At first I thought the card was too dark for me but after watching the video I saw that I was wrong and am happy to say that I love it.
Sarah - Congratulations on being this week's Wednesday Winner, you have been gifted a beautiful card.
Dragonsnap - oh poor baby Lola but it was almost inevitable. I hope everyone recovers quickly.
Pam - glad the twin/granny sitting is going well.
Frances
Absolutely stunning! So glad you are my first stop every morning! I start my day out on a beautiful journey thanks to you! TFS,!
This butterfly card is so pretty using with the pixie powder explosion on black card. Thanks for the great video. I really like the visual teaching.
Hi Sue,
This is lovely- those pixie powders really do make a statement
Beverley W
it's beautiful Sue and a great design
Gr Karin
Great card. Love the background. X
Hi Sue,
Stunning card - love everything about it! Never used Pixie Powders on black but they look fabulous. Mine never seem to come out like yours! However, I'm going to give this a try. Congratulations to Sarah. Love to all, Alison xxx
A pretty card with the cascading butterflies, Sue, love the pixie'd background but still don't think I'll venture into that world - how you doing with them now, Tracy?
Thanks as ever for the video.
Pam, glad the twin sitting, twiddlemuffs etc going well - sounds as though you're having a little granny pampering? Echoing again.
Elaine, I too had a wee explosion of mirth re the tackle comment but didn't mention it as the last thing to do is to encourage Laine!! PP we need you up to speed.
Always enjoy the mad comments, thanka for the smiles - inc Carmen, Donita, Saba and her ropes, Myra, Maria etc. Missing Maureen and Norah.
To those interested, Cloud sailed through his op + a little attention to teeth and war wounds. He lets me smooth him now and is a sucker for As Good As It Looks. Mr P, as always, prepared for the inevitable. He's a gem. At the vet's today (one follow up, one blood test) it was Puppy Time - baby Labs, Charlie a Westie babe, a corgi x min choc poodle and a Yorkie x poodle. Think maybe too many -oodles being bred, but so so cute. Hate being dogless, but usually a good 'fix' to be had at the vet's.
Well done to Sarah on the card win.
Happy sunny weekend, everyone, don't get time-lagged tomorrow!
'P' in Wales
AMAZING what a beautiful card, I have to get on and try those pixie powers!!!!!!
Hello Sue,
A lively swarm of fluttering butterflies this morning. The pixie powders on black really does povide for a dramatic background.
Congratulations to Sarah.
Hope you have a lovely weekend.
Beverly
A pretty card
A beautiful card Sue. Haven't tried the pixie powders on black but must remedy that very soon. Love the Cascading Butterlies. So pleased I have this die. I cannot resist butterflies. Thank you for sharing this. Lovely day here. Echoing Pam again.
Once again Sue a truly delightful card. I really don't know where you get your ideas from, you are very inspirational.
Hi Sue
Lovely card very pretty I do love butterflies.
Congrats to card winner
Hugs to all
Annx without an "e"
Fab card. Doncaster tomorrow and may well succumb to this die
Hello Sue,
I love this card! I love the cascading butterflies and the outline piece is such a great finishing touch but then you knew it would be!! I love the Pixie Powders and love playing with them. I don't know if I'm doing something very wrong or not but I tape my card to my protective paper with removable tape. It stops the card curling up when wet. I then leave it there to dry. It works for me anyway! A small fine mister is best too. You can see I have learned the hard way!! I too love butterflies and this set is gorgeous! Thanks Sue for a beautiful card and helpful video.
Congratulations Sarah - you will love your card!
Pam - I'm so pleased you are being well looked after! It's all the chat with the grandchildren I enjoy too!
It's quiet here today - my voice has gone! Grandchildren and parents who called thought my squeak was very funny! Once they knew I was ok!! It's been a glorious day. I hope it's lovely where Andrew and Helen are , Elaine!
Poor little Lola! Hopefully she won't get chicken pox badly.
Pat L - Sarah is a real Star and must be such a blessing to her parents.
Laine - they are getting at you! Saba didn't help at all! Mind you that's nothing new! Please don't be upset! PP - will be back soon to upset you properly! Lol!
Love to all, Myra xx
Love this card Sue.xx
Sue this is so beautiful, i love those cascading butterflies and the stunning background.
Wow looks like a picture

Hello Sue
I haven't been brave enough yet to try the pixie powders but you make it seem easy. I am sorry I haven't been commenting every day but my big brother has been diagnosed with lung cancer and is having to go through a barrage of tests so going with him and helping my mum who is 90 leaves me very little time. Hugs to everyone.
Hi Sue,
Thank you for the demo. I love the pixie powders on the black card. The Cascading Butterflies
is such a clever idea and so versatile.
Véronique L
Hi Sue I love this card the cascading butterfly die is lovely & the pixie powders so good on black I'll have to try that
Congratulations to the winner
Hillary I hope u our partner gets some relief soon
Dragons nap sorry poor little Lol a has chickenpox I hope it's not too severe & hope all the children recover from it soon

gorgeous card!
Evening Sue. Lovely card but have not managed to watch video yet. Wouldn't play for me this morning and no time since so will in morning,
Hope baby Lola isn't too ill with the chickenpox, horrible illness. Hilary hope husband improves soon and Crewe Trish, sorry to read about your brother, Good wishes to everyone. Xx
Hello Sue,
What an amazing video, thank you so very much for all your helpful tips about the pixie powders, you looked like you were having such fun tapping away and being a mad scientist ( I'm married to one by the way!). I'm also totally addicted to pixie powders but wouldn't have believed what stunning effects you can get using them on black card. I know what I'm doing tomorrow! Love your cascading butterflies. Fabulous card Sue, Thank you. Ps every time you just throw the waste bits under your craft table it makes me giggle!
Congratulations Sarah, enjoy your card.
Tressa I'm with you, my pearls ping off all over the place if I try Sue's scissor method. Don't know how she does it!
Pat L, Sarah is a brave little star.
"P" I do hope Cloud gets to stay. I agree those "Oodles are everywhere, but gorgeous, as are the Poos. Saw a Cockerpoo the other day and it melted my heart.
Hilary hope things soon get better for you and Hubby.
Crewe Trish I am so very very sorry, sending you a big hug.
Elaine the "tackle" had me spluttering too.
Myra, its time you stopped stirring it, Laine knows I love her really so don't say any more. Ha ha , you can't, you've lost your voice, yipeee.
Love and hugs for all
Saba xxx
Hi Sue,
It is a beautiful card ... I love the Cascading Butterflies die. The outline piece is a great finishing touch. When I watch the video I realized that the butterflies have different design which is great. I think that the background is a little bit too dark compare with those delicate white butterflies. However you have left some butterflies from the pixie powders background so you can make another card with dark butterflies on a white embossed background.
Thank you so much for all your helpful tips about the pixie powders if I will ever want to try this technique.
Congratulations Sarah, enjoy your card!
Pam – Glad you enjoy your weekend.
Dragonsnap2 – Poor baby Lola! I hope she’s the last in line. Sending her warm wishes for a speedy recovery.
Hillary - I hope your partner will get better soon.
‘P’in Wales- You have a big heart but Mr.P’s is even bigger I think. Hope Cloud will recover nicely (I really like his name).
Myra – You are helping a lot:) I think Saba needs some attention?!
Crew Trish – I am so sorry for your brother. You have a lot on your plate right now. Wishing you to have the strength to get thru all this.
Hugs for everyone,
Still a newbie to Craft / Not longer the newest and the only across the pond Wilsonette

Fabulous card. I have lots of butterfly dies and the Cascading Butterflies die has to be the best in my collection. So pleased you've made a video of this card, it might be the push I need to open the pixie powders and try them out.
Congratulations to Sarah on your card win.
