Hello crafters! I have a nice octagonal card for you for a Monday morning! I started by cutting one of the rings of the
Classic Adorned Octagons into white card. I backed it with royal blue card. I cut two of the
Bella die in white and offset them and attached them to the centre. I cut the
Thank You mini expression in black and seated on a white octagon with a blue mat. I used the
Double Stitched Octagons to make a black and white multi- layered frame. I attached it to a larger piece of white card and added three
white pearls in the corners. White, blue and black mats and layers were used to complete the card. The finished dimensions are
7 1/2" x 7 1/.2" in size. All for now, Sue x

This sentiment must be returned to you. For starting the complete Sue Wilson brand - your blog, that if you look back a few years or so ago look so totally different, dies and style of samples just put a smile on my face in comparison to the inspiration you give now. Talking of which, it seemed no time had gone by after you launched this collection that the most amazing cards were being proudly and lovingly shared round the world via Paul's fb group. So for all that's gone by, all that you give us now, and what's to follow, then it's you that deserves today's sentiment. Have a wonderful day to match the wonderful sample to start a fresh week xxx Thank You ☺
Good morning Sue,
A beautiful card with gorgeous details, so striking. X

Good Morning Sue. A really lovely card this morning Sue. I have to have the Bella die. I have seen it in our little local shop and thought shall I....or.... shan't I. I didn't but now you watch..... when I go for it....it won't be there...serves me right. Sending best wishes to everyone this dull but dry morning. Kind regards Ann Toppcards Leeds

Morning Sue, I love this card, looks so elegant. Love all the dies used, I think I need all the mini sentiment dies. Love Jean xxx
I sure hope Bella works this well with the Hexagons. I especially like how you repeated the shape inside Bella with the same color as outside. The difference between the Octagons and Hexagons was too slight to justify my getting both sets, so I'm being content with the Hexagons and happy to invest in the squared squares for a dramatically different look.
Bella is such a beauty!
And if the Octagons are anything like the Hexagons, they're a dream to work with.
I hope everyone has an enjoyable start to the work week.
Best,
Donita in R.I.
Hi Sue,
I fell in love with the CA Octagon die set precisely because of the bubbles and swags cuts so this card is timed perfectly to give me some more inspiration - love the simplicity and the contrasting colours that show off the bubbly pattern and the Bella set has just moved up the wish list too...
Izzy
Hi Sue - a very elegant and stunning card and I just love the Bella die. The colours are striking. Sending best wishes

Hi Sue, a beautiful card. Very clean, crisp and elegant.
So pretty and elegant card! Love the diecuts you used!
Hi Sue. What a very striking card today. I have invested rather heavily in all your hexagon shaped dies as that is my shape of choice, but having seen this card I may have to start looking more seriously at all the octagons. Too many dies and not enough income, oh dear, I am just going to have to start doing without food!!!
Lisbeth
Hi Sue, a most striking card that makes a very bold statement. Anyone receiving this would know that the 'Thank You' was sincerely meant and I thank you for the inspiration. The royal blue card is such a lovely colour and I even like the black edging :-)
Frances
Morning all! I love this stunning card. I have the octagonal die but I think I'm gonna have to add the Bella die so I can do this card myself! Thank you so much for sharing such wonderful cards with us all and being so generous as to let us copy them!! Love to all, Sarah
Such a pretty card Sue, love the Octagonal dies, they give quite a different feel to the cards.

Hi Sue. Sorry I have not been around for a couple of days but I have been unwell. All the cards you have shown are all GORGEOUS !!! I really love todays card. I think it is a classic Sue Wilson style card and it is STUNNING !!! I love the colours you have used. The Classic Adorned Octagon dies and the Stitched Octagon Dies are fabulous Sue. I really love these designs. The Bella is a Gorgeous die set to. They all mix and match so lovely together. Your sentiment die is the perfect fit for the centre Octagon. This is a really beautiful card. Thank you Sue. Lots of love from Tres X X X
Gorgeous card Sue, love the lacy effect that you have created!
Love your card today Sue. The dies are so lovely and work so great together.
Lovely design to this card though the black is not for me. The offset double layer with the Bella die works a treat.
Take care everyone.
WOW stunning gorgeous and my favourite shaped dies too, love it Sue. hugsxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Good morning Sue. I lost my comment for some reason so will try again.
I love this card,especially as it uses the Bella die that I was lucky enough to win some time ago. I think I have all the needed makings for the card so will try to get to it today.
Did you realise that S.W. =Sue Wilson and also Simply Wonderful?
