ReplyDeleteHi Sue,

Congratulations to Tressa on winning the card, enjoy looking at it when it arrives xxx
Pam echoing your comments today, oh it's good to have you back. Steph did mention a while back she wasn't able to comment for a while. I thought your grandsons would be round to see you as soon as they were home again, they must have been worried hearing you were in hospital while they were away. It's good to hear they had a good time though. Take care of yourself xxx
Maria and Karen you look after yourselves too xxx

ReplyDeleteDear Sue and the Bobbin' Robins
Very clever, cutting out the robin so he pops. Could somebody explain what robins have to do with Christmas?
Tressa, I never knew it was a cola company that turned Santa from green to red. And congratulation on becoming the latest owner of a genuine Sue Wilson card!
Goodness gracious, Barbara Macaskill, what a word! Christmasalisciousness!
Rosemary Powell, I hope you'll be gentle with yourself while coping with seizures and new meds. Yet you can still send out compliments and hugs and love.
Crewe Trish, Izzi and Maureen Killen, thanks for enjoying the landlady story.
Pam, it still makes me laugh that they named the puppy Dave. As funny as a cat named Larry.
Best wishes for a happy weekend.
Love,
Donita
Another beautiful stained glass card and I particularly love this one due to the subject matter. These dies are right up there on the top of my wish list.

Hi Sue this is a stunning card. I do love robins. The stained glass window dies are all amazing. I am going to treat myself to another one. Take care. Hugs Jackie
ReplyDeleteThis is so pretty, loving the embossed background too :)
ReplyDeleteHi Sue, love this gorgeous card, Christmas wouldn’t be Christmas without robins on a few cards. Really like the way you have cut out just the centre piece as it makes it stand out so well.
ReplyDeleteDonita – there are lots of explanations for robins at Christmas. In the early 19th century British postmen wore bright red uniforms and were nick-named Robins. Some greeting card artists illustrated their cards with the delivery of letters and one decided that instead of drawing a postman they would draw a robin with the cards and letters in his beak, hence robins on cards.
Another story surrounds Christ’s crucifixion. As Christ was dying on the cross a little brown bird flew beside him, trying to comfort him with its song. The bird clamped its beak on Jesus’ thorny crown, trying to remove it, and although the bird was not strong enough, as it attempted to pull off the thorns, a little bit of Christ’s blood stained his breast red.
I have always known both of these stories but double checked with Wikipedia in case they were just family stories :-) I hope I haven’t bored everyone.
Tressa – Congratulations on being this week’s Wednesday Winner, enjoy your stunning card.
Wishing everyone a safe, happy and pain-free week-end.
Frances
Hi Sue

Congratulations Tressa.

Love today's card. Amazing how different these stained glass dies can look.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to Tressa.
Hope you're feeling a bit better Pam. If you have trouble at work just mention that you're feeling harassed. Worked wonders for me when I was off sick a few years ago and my manager was moaning and even trying to get me to work from home.
Thoughts and prayers to all in need.
Crafty hugs,

Hello Sue,
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely card today, thank you for the video.
Pam, it's lovely to see that the twins enjoyed their visit to the Lakes and that Dave is growing fast. It will have cheered you up to see them. Take care.
Frances, I enjoyed the stories today, I hadn't heard them before.
Pat L, are you still wearing your saucy nurse's uniform now that Mr L is improving. It's good to know that he's getting more mobile.
Rosemary, I hope you are improving and feeling better.
Maria Pet, I hope you are feeling much better and being well looked after.
Myra, you were late last night, been nightclubbing again? ha ha

A beautiful card Sue. Congrats to Teressa
ReplyDeleteclassic christmas. love it, hugs xx
ReplyDeleteHello Sue,
ReplyDeleteI had to pop in earlier to prove I don't go Night Clubbing!!
I have watched the video - I don't have the Tobin but I do have the Poinsettia Stained Glass Die! I'm all ready to go - it's just that time seems to run away with me!
I love this technique and thank you for the tip about cutting it out twice! The effect is beautiful!
Tressa - many congratulations! I really love that card and I'm sure you do too! Enjoy!!
Frances - I knew the first story but not the second! Also robins are seen regularly in gardens in winter long after others have gone to warmer climes! Going " off piste " here - robins nested in my wellies which were upturned in the welly boot rack! It's right outside our back door! They survived humans moving around and my boots!!!
Pam - so pleased the twins had a good holiday and Dave too! Bet he is in loads of photos! Take care.
Love to all, Myra ( Friend of Maureen!). Xxx
PS if I'm late tomorrow - it's because we have the family visiting for the day!!!
Christmas would not be Christmas without a robin, this take on him is beautiful....such a lovely card....thank you Sue....luv Ursula xx

Beautiful Stain Glass design today.
ReplyDeleteMorning Sue and everyone.
ReplyDeletePerfect Christmas card and thank you for the video to show us
how you made it. I have the die so hope to give it a go, I can see
many Robins being sent this year near and far. Love the stained glas windows.
Congrats Tressa for winning the Wednesday card, you lucky girl.
Loved reading what some of you have been up too and I wish you all
have a nice Sunday, feeling better if poorly, taking care and have some
R & R when you can. Hugs to you all,
Maria x
Hi Sue,
ReplyDeleteLove all your stained-glass dies, and this one is one of my favorites. Lovely card, beautiful colors, great technique and video. Thank you for the inspiration.
Congratulations to Tressa!
Fluffycat - Thanks for the stories. I didn’t know the connection between the robin and Christmas.
Maureen - You seem to be almost in your top form,right?
Pam – Glad the twins had a great time with their father and came to visit you. Hope you feel better. Take care.
You asked about the Kid ... he called me yesterday evening. He is doing fine. The new job is less stressful than the previous one. He sounded happy and healthy. Another scan is scheduled at the end of this month; hopefully the result will be good. He will try to visit us soon. The Kid wanted to know everything about my vacation; if I liked Montreal because he lived there before to move to Toronto and he really loved that year spent in Quebec (now I understand why). We had an enjoyable conversation (not like others, I don’t say names) and he promised to be in touch. He sent hugs to all my co-workers (he didn’t talk to anybody since he left) and he didn’t forget about all my blog friends either. So hugs from him for you all.
Have a lovely Sunday,
Still a newbie to Craft / not longer the newest, or the only Canadian Wilsonette

Love the design, though I'd prefer a slightly softer colour than the black.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to Tressa on winning this week's card giveaway.
Take care everyone.
I just love this card and it has come on the right day for me as my Son is taking me t Inspirations today to return the Robin die as I have 2 of them and not used either. Now I've decided not to return the die as I can cut out 2 at once on my Gemini. Your video is so well presented and I can't wait to try it.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to the lucky card winner.
Hope that all the sick members are feeling better by the day.
Happy Sunday to all.

Beautiful card, one of my favouite dies. Creative Blessings, Tracy x
