For You


Hello bloggers!  I pulled out some Glitter Kiss for today's card.  I used Bordeaux and Periwinkle Glitter Kiss randomly all over a piece of white card.  I allowed it to dry overnight well, then cut it into three strips.  I added mounting foam to the back of each of the strips and attached them to a piece of white card, leaving a small gap between them.  Next I used the Paulette Edgers and cut it into a piece of coconut white card.  Next I used the cutting edge from the Joanie die and cut an aperture in the centre of it.  (I kept the actual aperture for another card) and used the aperture fall away piece here,  I added a small circle frame using the Double Stitched Circles and added a white base to it then mounted it in the centre of the Joanie die.  I cut the For You sentiment from a leftover piece of the Glitter Kiss Background and glued it inside the circle frame.  I cut several of the Jasmine Flower out of Blue Dusk card and added them in opposite corners.  I cut several of the Magnolia Corner in white and accented the Jasmine Flowers with it.  The card was completed with white on white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 3/4"  x  8 1/4" in size.  All for now, Sue x

  3. Morning from Lancashire Sue and everyone.
    I don't know if it's the time of day and I'm still a bit brain fuzzy or just plain stupid but I need to read the method again and have a good look at main focal element cuz I can't put it together in my mind lol. It's a beautiful sample with that touch of blue.

    Keeping everyone here in my mind and sending virtual hugs to all.
    PLEASE STAY SAFE EVEN IF NUMBERS ARE DROPPING A LITTLE ITS STILL OUT THERE AND NO-ONE IS SAFE YET.

    KEEP CARING KEEP CRAFTING 💖 xxx

  5. Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, oh I do like this one, I love the way you have done the centre panel with the white and blue cut from to different dies and stuck on top of each other, it looks really effective in the close ups. As does the glitter kiss panels and flowers, what a lovely sample today, thank you Sue.

    Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx

    Good Morning Sue.
    Thank you for the daily dose of inspiration. I do honestly wonder where you get the time to treat us on a daily basis.
    I'll have to come back to this one later as my carer is coming early today.
    Hugs.

I love how you have used the edgers and I am glad to say I'm not the only one who said they would never have used them in this way. You are one very talented lady. Thankyou Sue.

  23. Hi Sue. What a really unusual colour scheme and I really like it. That is such a good idea to use the border dies in the aperture cut out, just think how many different designs you could make.

  30. Hello Sue
    A really beautiful card for today.
    The colours you have used are gorgeous and quite unusual to see together.
    Great way to use your edger die cut into the Joanie die.

  31. Hi Sue, a lovely card and quite unusual. I had to read the instructions through twice but with the help of the close-ups I think I understand how you created it.

    Your card today shows yet another creative way to use your Endless Options Edgers. In this case Paulette Edgers. Well done. Your Jasmine Flowers look lovely with the Magnolia Corners and are great accents to your overall design. Thanks for the inspiration. Best Wishes for your HSN TV shows today. I will be watching and buying! Hugs

  39. I really like the way you played with the Paulette Edgers and the cutting edge from the Joanie die. The result is different and so lovely. And once again, you proved how versatile your dies are. I would like to see more samples like this one.

    Hugs from Toronto to you all.
    Stay safe and healthy.

    Hi Sue,
    now this is fabulous - I love the background, and the design, joanie is a marvellous die set and the magnolia corner, too. Using the Paulette was inspiring also.
    It is fabulous!!
