ReplyDeleteGood Morning Sue. Lovely card this morning Sue but again stained glass dies are not my favourites.....I prefer the lacy dies and the flowery ones...... but I am sure you had fun putting this together. Sending best wishes to everyone this misty morning. Kind regards Ann Toppcards Leeds

ReplyDeleteOoh, love the colours and all that pretty sparkle!....and the mini Expressions sentiments frame the die-cut scene perfectly - that is such an attractive font, I've now got 4 of them and they cut beautifully too...off to watch the video now...
Congratulations to Lindyloo on winning Wednesday's bright and cheerful card...
Jacqui - however did you manage to break your shoulder?...poor you, I imagine dressing and undressing must be a nightmare at the moment - get well soon...

Hi Sue,
ReplyDeletethat is a wonderful and video already watched before your post was shown . And I've got a birthday card to make for someone who likes to travel. One drawback - she likes black and red. But I suppose has to learn we cannot always have everything in life.
Hugs,Rose

ReplyDeleteTo My Wonderful Dear Friend Sue, 🥇Award Winning Blog For 2016
ReplyDeleteToday’s Video Tutorial Is Magnificent When I First Watched On YouTube
I Decided To Have Ago As I Have All The Stained Glass Collection I Used
This Particular Die, Instead Of Using Distress Pens I Used My Copic Alcohol Pens
It Came Out Just As Well I Was Extremely Pleased With The Result.
Famous Products Used In Today’s Card ✨
“Creative Expression Piercing Ruler 12”/30cm”
“Creative Expression Coconut White/Black Foundation Card”
“Creative Expression Mounting Foam”
“Spray Adhesive From Your Stash”
“Creative Expression Cosmic Shimmer Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz”
“Tim Holtz Spiced Marmalade/Sqeezed Lemonade/Mustard Seed/Tumbled Glass/Picked Raspberry/Forest Moss Distress Pens”
Famous Cutting Dies Used In Today’s Card ✨🥇Award Winning For 2017
“Sue Wilson’s Hot Air Balloon Die Set” (From The Stained Glass Collection 1 Cutting Die)
“Sue Wilson’s Just wanted To Say Die Set” (From The Mini Expression Collection 2 Cutting Dies)
“Sue Wilson’s Congratulations Die Set” (From The Mini Expression Collection 1 Cutting Die)
Sue, You Began Magical Card By Taking Two Pieces Of Card Top One Black The Other Is Coconut White Foundation Card
You (Mentioned When Cutting The Die If It Cuts Through The Coconut White Card Then Tape At The Back To
Secure All The Pieces)
Then You Coloured On The White Image Using Your Distress Pens, (As You Mentioned You Don’t Have To Be Perfect)
Once The Image Is Throughly Dry (Must Be Totally Dry) You Spray Glued Your Coloured Image Then You Took The Image
You Had Cut Out Of Black Foundation Card, Then Placed This Over Your Coloured Image (This Is Where The Magic Happens)
The Black Outlines Cover Any Imperfections, You Made Sure Your Black Image Was Secure Then Added
Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz, Adding Mounting Foam To The Back Then You Placed On A White/Black Background
Which Also Had Your Sentiment On, Then You Attached This To Your Base Card Which Includes Your Famous/Signature
Piercing. Sue, “Magnificent Card” Thank You For Sharing Also For The Daily Inspiration Plus The Tremendous Video Tutorial
Sue, Take Great Care My Wonderful Dear Friend
Extremely Wonderful Warm Fond Wishes To Colin Also Heather
Once Again Ally Pally..........
Sue, Lots Of Love Also Huge Hugs 🤗
Love From Sam xxx
HUGE CONGRATULATIONS TO LINDYLOO 12 FOR WINNING WEDNESDAY GIFT CARD ENJOY.................
No tempting suggestion necessary for me to watch any of your videos. All I have to hear is Sue Wilson video and I am there! Beautiful card using a brilliant technique. Easy, too. I have a couple of your stain glass dies so I "need" to try your technique.
ReplyDeleteHi Sue
ReplyDeleteBrilliant video as always and the card is amazing too,
Best wishes to Jacqui,that must be painful xx
Xx Karen M
Hi Sue,
ReplyDeleteNow I do like this one! Fabulous card and brilliant video - thank you,
Love and hugs to all. Alison xxxx
Hi Sue
ReplyDeleteLovely card today.love these stain glass cards you make.
Yummy card today. I used a glitter technique on the stained glass butterfly by covering card with double sided tape, kiss cutting and then uncovering sections and adding colored micro-fine glitter. Fun but this is way quicker and just beautiful. Lovely card. I have a number of the stained glass dies and find them so versatile.I must try this.
ReplyDeleteJacqui, so sorry about your shoulder. I have helped a friend with two shoulder surgeries and she was pretty helpless. Hope you mend as quick as possible.
LindyLoo, I am so envious. I just love that card. Congrats!
Ally Pally....I want to go. I have a friend who wants to go to England. Told her we had to go when Ally Pally was going on! Enjoy yourselves crafty ladies.

ReplyDeleteCongratulations Lindyloo!
Hi Sue
ReplyDeleteLovely card and great video. Congratulations to Lindyloo on winning the wonderful Wednesday card
Jacqui- ouch hope you'll soon be on the mend
Love and hugs to everyone

Another great card Sue...love the balloon....luv Ursula xx
ReplyDeleteHi Sue. Great to see you again today. This card looks so much nicer in real life - it is such a pity all the sparkle doesn't show up on photographs. Off to play with all my new dies now, I spent far to much at Ally Pally

Hello Sue,
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful way to soar off into the wide beyond without ever leaving your crafting desk. I love the die and the technique that you have used.
Have a wonderful day and weekend at Ally Pally.

Fantastic card sue love the simplicity of this card it is a lot easier than it looks .fab. Laura O Springfield
ReplyDeleteHi Sue this is a stunning card. I do love those stained glass dies. The glitter is very effective. I had a lovely time at Ally Pally today. I hope it all goes well tomorrow. Take care. Hugs Jackie
ReplyDeleteHi Sue. Fabulous card and video! Congratulations Lindyloo on your win. Sue xxx
ReplyDeleteHi Sue
ReplyDeleteLovely card. I will watch the video after this comment if I can stay awake long enough. I had a lovely day at Ally Pally. It meant getting up at 5.30 and a long journey but worth it. It was so sunny and the approach to Ally Pally greeted me with gorgeous pink blossom trees. They are not yet in bloom ‘up north’.
Had a good spend, the day went so fast. Managed to speak to you Sue towards the end of the day which was nice, but had to leave so couldnt watch as much as I’d liked to have. Your samples were gorgeous though. Every time I came to your table you had a good crowd around you and you were in your element. I hope you enjoy tomorrow as well. You looked really well.
Love Helen xxx
Gorgeous card Sue. Super balloon die. Xx
ReplyDeleteHi Sue,
ReplyDeleteWatched the video, and cannot wait to buy this die and try it out. It is one of my favourites. I love all of your "stained glass windows" style and fallen in love with them all
Thanks Sue for all of your tips and inspirations. Also thank you for the videos. You know how I love all your videos.
Many thanks
Love n hugs from Dorothy of Baldock.
Hi Sue,
ReplyDeleteThank you for showing us another great technique for stained glass dies. Enjoyed your video as always.Enjoy Ally Pally!
Jacqui-Hope you'll feel better soon. Take care.
Busy day here: I worked on a baby card (for my boss' first grandchild, a baby boy) and I prepared some traditional dishes for our Easter. We'll go to the church at midnight to light a candle and bring it into our home.Happy Easter for all Orthodox Christians!
Hugs from Toronto to you all and special hugs to all missing friends.

Beautiful card. Off to watch your video to see how it's done. Love your stained glass dies.
ReplyDeleteJacqui, what have you been up to? Hope your shoulder mends quickly.
Congratulations to Lindyloo on winning such a lovely card.
Take care everyone.
Hello Sue and all
ReplyDeleteWOW ! I really do like your stained glass dies and am slowly building up my collection. Great video and yet another way (very easy) to turn the craft room into fairyland. Such a clever way to do it. I have made some small cards for posting using the dies I have and have been really pleased with them.
Congratulations to Lindyloo and hoping you are feeling better Jacqui
So jealous of all of you going to Ally Pally, a big dream for me but who knows, one day ........
Hugs
