A daily papercrafting blog which features my handmade cards showcasing Creative Expression's products including my own line of cutting dies and embossing folders, Cosmic Shimmer, Ranger and more which use various techniques and ideas to hopefully inspire the creativity in you.
Ever notice how much more exciting a card is when you have the dies? I have none of these (except the Passion Flowers). But kudos to those who do -- this is a lovely card!
Hi Sue. Sparking recessed and beautiful. I'm loving the samples showing your new dies and look forward to seeing lots more plus the video tutorials that match, so I'm off to watch how you put this very pretty sample together. Thanks for your never ending inspiration, wish I was as craft minded as you. Have a lovely day xxx
Good morning Sue Today's card is so pretty! I too love this glitter and agree it is so sparkly. I enjoyed the video thanks for sharing! Hugs x Heather T
I have loved this card since the first time I saw it. It just speaks to me. The color is so soft and soothing and the combination of dies that you have used make for a perfect card design. It just makes me happy.
Hello Sue, a very pretty card today, it is quite incredible how the grid die works so well with the lacy and delicate dies. Have a great day everyone. Bx
Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, such a pretty card today, I did purchase that background and am so pleased I did, it looks super duper on the sample, will watch the video later.

Another lovely card this morning, the dies you've used work so well together - the Diamond Squares background is already on my list but the Michelle is growing on me too, it's so pretty and would lend itself beautifully to some inlay work...
Good Morning Sue. Gorgeous colours for today's card. I like Aqua and White together. Lovely use of dies as well. The dies you have used today are just a few that I don't have..... but I know by looking at your sample.... I have dies that I can substitute to make a very similar card.
