Hello there my crafty friends! I haven't shown a Hydrangea card in awhile so I thought it was time! I started with the background that I embossed with the
3D folder called Decadent Dots for some lovely texture. Next, I used the border from the
Treat Yourself die set and cut two blue ones and a white one. I glued them on to create a wide border. Next I cut the
Beautiful Hydrangea die in both green card and in pink card. I cut the bloom off of the pink card and glued it on top of the green one. I used a bit of
Salty Ocean Distress Oxide on a
smoothie to add a bit of colour to the bloom, then began popping up the blooms for dimension. I cut a
Double Stitched Rectangle and seated the flower on it. The sentiment was cut in blue card and glued below the flower. White, blue and pink layers were used to complete the card. The finished dimensions are 7" x 7 1/2" in size. All for now, Sue x

Oh wow Sue, it's hard to say what your eyes focus on first, the amazing background or your Hydrangea flower die, both are absolutely beautiful. I have this folder plus 2 other 3D folders on hold at my lovely little craft shop, so when funds allow I'll be able to make my backgrounds pop like this too and hopefully one day I'll own this adorable Hydrangea until then I have the inspiration from yourself and others that make outstanding cards with this gorgeous die. Hope your day is as lovely as today's sample xxx
Morning Sue, a very pretty card today, love the hydrangea die with the pop of blue on some of the petals. Have a good day everyone. Bx
Good morning Sue,
A very pretty card to start the week with. Hydrangeas are my daughters favourite flower and she is trying to persuade us to get some for our garden. x
Hi Sue I especially love how all the areas of the card co-ordinate eg colours and background,
it looks fabulous. x

Morning Sue, exquisite card today. Great background. I have this folder but haven't used it yet. Hydrangeas are such lovely flowers and there are so many different kinds. At least we don't have to water yours. Hugs xx Pauline
Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, another beautiful creations today, what I love about all your dies Sue is that they cut out beautifully and are always crisp and sharp especially with the embossing on them, and this sample shows that wonderfully.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
GM Sue. Such a great card. Love it.
Morning Sue and all the Wilsonettes

Good Morning Sue and all.
Stunning card this morning , so many different details on the card. The Hydrangeas is so beautiful and the details on the flowers where they lift up is beautiful. The 3D embossing folder works so well on the design and I have noticed you have used the boarders from the cup cakes.
crafty hugs and well wishes to all.... Wendy
This is a lovely card Sue. Like how you cut the hydrangea in green then added pink over the top. Pretty border too. My beautiful hydrangea has not faired well in the heat this year, normally it is glorious, hoping it comes back next time. Xx
Such a beautiful card today. Love all the lovely details that you get on the hydrangea flower.
Morning Sue,
A truly gorgeous card this morning, very detailed hydrangea.
The colours all compliment each other.
Love 7 hugs

Hello Sue and all

Beautiful card this morning Sue. I just love the background and the stripy borders too, and they would set almost any image off, just the way they set off the Hydrangea.
Hugs Helen xx
Vety pretty card Sue.
Annette x
How fab dimensions!!! Love so much the dies you used and the EF is just perfect to compliment them! Great design and colours!
This card could please even a sightless person, with all its many bumps and rows of circles and lift-up flaps. Among all the die designers, there are so many ways to cut the hydrangea, but I’m so glad Sue decided we could use a break from gluing on all those individual florets.
Best,
Donita
Absolutely stunning
Such a pretty card Sue, thank you. Have a good day. Xxx
Love this one Sue. All the echoes of texture.
Lovely texture. Hydrangeas are one of my favourite flowers.

Good morning Sue and all Wilsonettes.
I may stand alone with my comment today but although I appreciate the various aspects of the flower and despite the fact that I've recently planted 3 of these in my garden,I wont be putting it on my wish list and I really don't know why.
Sorry to be so negative.

Love the card. Thank you Sue. I have 5 Hydranga plants but when I returned from holiday they were all very dead. But now they are beginning to revive so glad I didn’t throw them away. One day perhaps I will have flowers again.
