Stunning card Sue, gorgeous. Very ethereal
Congratulations Eluzabeth on winning the beautiful angel card. What a treasure.
Donita, hope your foodie day goes well. Remember you can't comment if you haven't tried the food first. Have a great day.
Elaine, I'm shocked but not surprised at the Housing people's attitude. It's always money before people. I think your MP needs to be involved and maybe the local paper. I hope Mary was much improved when you saw her and that Andrew is doing well.
CreweTrish, the news is full of the terrific heatwave Lucifer, if you are in that region please take extra care and keep well out of the sun.
Alison, I too can't believe it is 8 months since your fall, where does time go. Hooe you are okay.
CraftySue, if you need to sleep do so, it is your body's way of getting over the stress you went through towards the end of your work. Take a break before you start job hunting if you can afford to.
Welcome to the blog Paul, Sue is an inspiration to us all.
Daily hugs to all, thinking of all poorly and missing friends, Laine, Norah, missing you gals.
Love this, would frame it I think. Congratulations to Elizabeth xx

Hi Sue, I absolutely love everything about this card and am pleased to say that I made one earlier in the week using craft card, your die-cut-to-stamp technique and the starry night sky background from a previous collection. I am very pleased with the result and will be trying other styles soon. As Rose has said the trees are so easy to extend they are a joy to use.

Stunning card Sue!!!!!
Love everything about it!
Hello Sue,
I have loved this card since I saw it during your release. You have captured the scene magnificently. It is so serene but majestic as well. It reminds me of of the many nights the deer and other critters would appear at the edge of the woods on my parents farm. The dies and the stamps with this release are just wonderful.
Have a lovely weekend.
Beverly from Maryland, USA
That's an absolutely gorgeous card. X
Hi Sue and everyone

Hello Sue,
I really love this card! It really deserves to be framed! I have the Tree Dies from a couple of years back. They are beautiful. I don't have these Dies but I love Silver Birches. We had one , which sadly died, in our garden but it looked beautiful when the sun shone on the bark and through the leaf canopy! Love your deer and other little woodland creatures! Thanks Sue!
Congratulations to Elizabeth Bennett - you won a beautiful card !! It will look lovely in your Craft Room! Enjoy!
Donita - how are you getting on ??? Are you full up yet?? I hope you have had a lovely day and would love to read your Article!

HI Sue, a beautiful card. The scene would make a lovely framed picture. Thanks for your video. Away again so will play catchup next week.
I really like how you have created such depth with your layers. Your deer and bunny are awesome and your trees are so life like. Your trees reminds me of all those fall gold colored leaved Aspen trees in Colorado. Thanks for the helpful video. Always a pleasure to watch you demonstrate.
Love your card today. The trees are so great looking. Like seeing another use for your deer die.
Lovely card again Sue. I haven't watched the video yet as I have to magnify everything on my PC to be able to see the details but will do so very shortly.
Congratulations Elizabeth on your wonderful win.
Hi Sue
A lovely card. Like the idea of adding sprinkles to the moon, and the background is really effective.
