Good Sunday morning all! How about a bright and cheery
Pansy Flower Square card! I started with the
Herringbone background and I cut it twice in white. I glued them together going in opposite directions, then added a white backing behind. I cut the
Pansy Flower Square in white and added it to a backing with a
sticky adhesive sheet added to it. I paper pieced the pansy by cutting it in various colours then adding them back into the die cut. I mounted it in a diamond orientation in the centre of the background. I used the
Many Thanks sentiment cut out of Iris card with a white shadow added. White on white mats and layers completed the card. The finished dimensions are 6 1/2" x 7 1/2" in size. All for now. Sue x

Hi Sue. What a bright,colourful, happy sample on this bright sunny morning in the cottage in the beautiful countryside, I can't think of a better way to start a Sunday. If Particraft-a-holics don't smile when they see this they must be still sleepy lol. To those spending time with their dad's on father's day, enjoy your special day with this special man. 40yrs and so happy xxx 😉
Loving this card. Beautiful pansy xx
Good morning sue very pretty card on Father’s Day love.the pansy
Thank you sue love always June Horrocks xxxxxxxxxx
Happy Father's Day to all the Dads out there.
Very sunny here too!
The pansy would make a great Easter card also. x
Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, a lovely bright sunny Pansy to greet us today, the clouds are hovering over head, mainly dark grey so looks like we are in for some more rain, but at least we are high up so no chance of being flooded like some people are, my heart goes out to them. However, I digress, this is a beautiful sample today, I actually have all of those dies so could make this later couldn't I.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
Stunning card Sue xx Hazel

Thank you, a lovely happy cheerful card today.
The sun is shinning at the moment but for how long?.
Take care and have fun Kitty.
A really nice card Sue. I love the flower square dies, so many occasions they can be used for. Thank you Sue.xxx
Hello Sue, a beautifully card, adore all the flower squares but I think the pansy is my favourite. Very grey and windy here, think we are in for more rain.

Love the background and the pretty pansy
Hello Sue and all
Pansy flower square, herringbone background, shadow sentiment and paper piecing, what is not to love about this one? When I can eventually craft again, this is on top of my list

Hurray the sun is shining at last, we have a blue sky though there are grey clouds hovering in the distance, but a bright and cheery card to go with this lovely Sunday morning. I am loving the herringbone background.

Hi Sue, both beautiful dies and colours. Vi x
G'morning Sue.
My favourite flower is the Pansy and especially the purple one I love the way you have laid it against the yellow one as those 2 colours together can often be seen by people of low vision (like me) I don't have the die but having seen your lovely card I may well put it on my 'WANT IT' list
Hugs.

Hello Sue such a bright cheerful card. Pansies are a sweet flower, always look pretty with a smile on their petals xx
Good morning Sue,
A beautiful bright and cheery card to wake up to.x
Lovely card today & I agree with an earlier comment that it would be perfect for Easter.
Michele
Lovely card I really enjoy paper piecing if it’s not too fiddly These dies are perfect for it
Morning Sue,What a sunny, cheerful pansy card. As I write this I'm looking at my pansies in the hanging baskets outside. Who doesn't love a pansy and with this die, you could have them all year round!
It's my husband's birthday today so he celebrates 'a two -fer' as we say and he loved his card using your African animals (zebras) stamp and die.
Enjoy your father's day those of you who are still fortunate enough to do so. Still, I look back on special memories. Hugs xx Pauline from Teesside
Hello Sue, this is so bright and cheerful. Love the background.

Sue hope you don't mind if I wish STEPHANIE AND ANDREW COTTERILL Many Congratulation on their RUBY WEDDING ANNIVERSARY. I am sure all our blog family will wish them the same. Thankyou Sue. Sending hugs and best wishes to everyone. Kind regards Ann Toppcards Leeds.
Good Morning Sue and all
What a beautiful card this morning and I do love seeing your creations with the flower squares. Love how you have created the background with Herringbone by cutting twice and crossing over . The pansy colours are beautiful and one of my favourite flowers and the sentiment is a perfect size.
Crafty hugs to all , Wendy
Many congratulations to Steph and her hubby
Morning Sue, beautiful card, the colours are so fresh, love it! Love Jean xxx

Hi Sue, a really lovely and striking card, the pop of colour against the white is so effective. Have a good day everyone. Bx
Hi Sue. Love that herringbone background and what a good idea to use the pansy in a diamond orientation which makes it look completely different.

Hi Sue
Beautiful card, I do love your flower squares but the pansy is one of two that I don’t have. Having just bought the poinsettia flower square I will now be concentrating on my Christmas cards so maybe sometime in the future I will get the lovely pansy
Happy 40th anniversary to Steph and Andrew
Love and hugs to everyone

Hi Sue
A beautiful and bright card. Love the pansies especially in such bright colours. The background of the herringbone die used twice looks amazing too and a nice contrast to the pansy square.
To Steph and hubby Andrew, congratulations on your Ruby Wedding. I hope you received some beautiful cards. Enjoy your special day. Xx
Love Helen xxx
Paper piecing is just so beautiful and this card just portrays that, so beautiful....luv Ursula xx
Very pretty - I do love your 'flower squares'.
Aw sue just what i needed a lovely bright card to cheer me up! As my gran is 97 and very poorly and she loves pansy so i have shown her your lovely card. Thank you Helen xxx

Have a great Sunday and Happy Father's Day,

Hi Sue,
This is a lovely card, - popping pansies springs to mind.............
I love the Herringbone Die.
Hugs
Rose
Pansies are my favorite flower!!!They are delicate and hardy all at the same time. Wonderful die Sue I will be buying this one!!!!
Love your stain glass dies and your paper piecing. Your Herringbone die makes an interesting background when you place the cuts in opposite direction. Value for one's money. I like that.
A lovely bright and cheerful card. I do like the herring bone background.
Teresa
Hi Sue, a really lovely bright and cheerful CAS card. I love all the flower squares but I think the pansy is my favourite as no matter how I use it, it never fails to make me smile.
Steph - Congratulations and Happy Ruby Anniversary to you and Andrew, hope you are both having a great day.
Frances
Love the clean lines of this card, both from the pan you & the herringbone background. Lovely bright, cheerful card. Thank you Sue.
Lovely card. I love pansies especially purple ones.
Sue that background is beautiful another must have on my list. The card is super too xxxx
Evening Sue, Love this background and I now have all your flower squares. Beautiful card. Are you able to have a rest yet from all the Christmas cards and designs or are you onto the next set. A
A beautiful card Sue. So clean and simple. Congratulations to Steph on her special anniversary xx
Pretty card sue love the bright colours. Laura O Springfield
Love how you've used the herringbone background both ways. I've never been keen on white on white, but the more I see you doing it the more I think I must give it a try!!
Obviously as I've said in the Christmas launch, I usually only read your blogs from the emails I get and never comment. But I will try from now on! Maybe not every day.
One thing I would like, maybe it is somewhere and I'm not looking correctly is a list of everything you've used for each demo. For example the exact colour card, make and dimensions, what glue you use (spray that you used yesterday in the video for example) any anything else. I really struggle with colour combinations and it would be so so helpful to know what your using or even maybe do a colour chart?
Thanks sue your fab and my favourite crafter by miles!! Lisa xx
This looks amazing! I love how you did the background.
Love the simplicity of this card and love the herringbone background. It looks amazing in white! So beautiful.
