Simple Miss You Card
Hi bloggers! It is just a lovely simple card for your video treat today. This is the sort of card that could easily accommodate a host of different sentiments too.
The finished dimensions are 6 1/2" x 7 3/4" in size. All for now, Sue x
Gorgeous card this morning! Just love the card design and the Passion flowers look so lovely (finally succumbed and bought the Passion flower dies :)). Debra x
White on white nothing better, my other favourite is cream on cream. Beautiful card Sue, thanks for sharing, off to watch video so have a great day. hugs xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Morning Sue. Not all your photos are uploading at the moment but with the few that have I am wowed by just how beautifully delicate this sample is, it really looks like borders of expensive lace and the blush pink is made for this sample, I can imagin giving a keepsake like this as a wedding card it's just gorgeous, simple,delicate,gorgeous. I'm not sure if there are any winners listed due to loading issue's but I'll try again later. Have a lovely day whatever your plans xxx
Good Morning Sue. I love the simplicity of this card Sue. And with your permission I would use it regular. I see this as a sympathy card too.. just so delicate. I can't watch the video at the moment ... but as soon as I can I will. Sending best wishes to everyone this beautiful sunny Turkish morning . Kind regards Ann Toppcards Leeds
Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, really elegant card, not too fussy or overpowering so this one is right up my street, could also be done as white on white, yes I like this idea.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
Good Morning Sue and all Beautiful card this morning and such a elegant design. I love the soft colours and any sentiment would work. Going to watch the video a little later. Crafty hugs and well wishes to all.... Wendy
Hello Sue, a lovely elegant card, it may be simple but the design is really effective. Will have to catch up with the video later. Have a good day everyone. Bx
Really like this idea - it would be fairly simple and quick to do especially if you already have some flowers made up, although I must admit I'd be tempted to use stronger colours on the flowers and sentiment just to make them stand out a bit more...
Donita - Sue used Distress Markers on yesterday's card - same inks but in pen format...I don't have the full range but they are very useful...
Hi Sue. This was the card that I caught a glimpse of on TV that I really liked. I took a picture of it when I went to Ally Pally and, of course, I had to get everything so that I could make something similar. Love it.
Hi Sue You may say simple - I think it's simply stunning x Yes in theory this may be relatively simple card to make but the results are beautiful. By changing the flowers, colours and sentiment this card will be brilliantly versatile. Thanks for sharing this idea Sue x Really busy and exhausting couple of days so apologies for lack of comments. I have a little time this morning to catch my breath then going to friends for the rest of the day/evening with the intention of celebrating Eurovision. I used to be an avid fan but not really that bothered these days but the free food and company will compensate for having to put up with an evening of bad telly x Sending lots of love to all specially missing friends x Crafty hugs PP Yvonne x
Hi Sue, This card would melt anybody's heart (if it needed it that is). It's beautiful and the colours are so gentle, it's good to see a channel card again, too. Will watch the video a bit later - here in Chester we have got the races on so I'll be nipping into town before bedlam starts in earnest. It's funny, you see all the ladies go into the course dolled up to the eyebrows at lunchtime and when the races are finished around 5 pm they tatter into the pubs MUCH worse for wear. When it's hot their high heels get discarded, but that won't be the case today. It's sunny but freezing......... Hugs, Rose
Another fun video for a lovely card. I like how the barest of color is just enough. And it's good to know the icy glitterbitz lets color shine through. Makes me want to cut up a bunch of Passion Flowers to keep handy.
Thanks, Izzy, for explaining that the precise delivery of ink on yesterday's card was accomplished with Distress Markers. I was picturing the small end of a Smoothie.
Enjoy whatever you make today, and keep your embossing powder dry.
Hi Sue this is a stunning card I love it. I have just been given those flower dies and matching stamps. I can't wait to use them. Have a great weekend. Take care. Hugs Jackie BTW I have been away for a few days to celebrate my birthday. :)
Hi Sue, what a gorgeous card and suitable for such a lot of different occasions. I love white on white cards with a hint of pastel. I've got the flower die so will be cutting out a lot in white and different colours to take away with me tomorrow as I need my crafty fix even after walking the hills and lakes in the Lake district. Enjoy your weekend everyone. Hugs xx Pauline
Hi Sue and lovely wilsonettes x Simple but stunning Sue x it's absolutely gorgeous x I love the delicacy and the passion flowers look beautiful x thankyou so much Sue for your inspiration x Theresa w in Berks xxx
Hi Sue, I love this delicate and gentle card. I have not always been a fan of channel cards but I do like this idea of using acetate to bridge the gap and then being able to build upon it. I may well try this very soon and thanks to the video I will know how to.
Good Afternoon Sue It may be a relatively quick and simple card but it is very elegant! I love the hint of blush card and the acetate filling the channel. It would be a great to have a few of these cards ready made along with an assortment of coloured flowers all ready to pop on to the card with a suitable sentiment. A great card for all occasions and I will be making a few of these!!
Hi Sue, A beautiful and elegant card today. Really like this one a lot. Would be a lovely wedding card too ( obviously with a different sentiment!) Love and hugs to all, Alison xx
A beautiful card Sue. Thank you. Would be good for lots of occasions and in other colours. Cold and wet here today. Happy belated birthday greeting to Jackie.
Hi Sue, Gorgeous, gorgeous card, so elegant. Love the touch of pink which is barely discernible but adds so much. Flowers are lovely and the dies you have used are fantastic. Cheers, Di B.x Tasmania.
Super card and video. The delicate hint of colour with the blush card is very effective. The Passion Flower dies are so versatile. Anne, enjoy the sun in Turkey. We've got rain, again! Take care everyone.
Hi Sue, Today's card ticked all the right boxes: simple, beautiful, elegant, versatile.Thank you for the inspiration and for the great video. Marie P.& Anne T - Enjoy your vacation.
