Thanks For All You Do

 Hello bloggers!  I selected a piece of Iris card to use for the background.  Using the Coronet Lace Border, I cut two in white and two in black.  I used the black die cuts as a shadow behind the white ones, then glued them to the sides of the card.  I cut the Gloria die with a piece of black card on top of a piece of white card.  I used alcohol ink markers to colour the image on the white copy, then I glued the black die cut on top.   I cut the Gloria die again in white and mounted it vertically in the middle of the card.   I added the coloured die cut on top of it.  I cut the Thanks For All You Do sentiment in black and added it to a white shadow backing die and attached it across the middle of the die with mounting foam.  The card was completed with white and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 1/2"  x  8 3/4" in size.  


All for now, Sue x

Good Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, I hope you have rested after your wonderful launch of the Art Deco collection on Hobbymaker yesterday. As to todays card it is another glorious creation, love the blue flowers the way you have done them. The sentiment is perfect too.

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

Beautiful post and think I remember this from a previous launch. Loved it then and still as gorgeous now. Particularly love it in this colour.

A beautiful card & the birder really pops on the lovely iris card. It was interesting watching you colouring in these flowers yesterday on TV. Really enjoyed the shows yesterday & it might be 5 years since you have been here but you hadn’t changed at all Thank you Sue.

Hi Sue

A beautiful card. I now know how you coloured the flowers after watching yesterday’s tv shows. Hope you enjoyed them as much as we did.

Love Helen xxx

It was really an advance Easter treat to see you demonstrating yesterday. I know you said you felt rusty but it didn't come across like that at all. Your enthusiasm so show the samples of what can be achieved rather than let the channel just continually tell us the cost must have increased sales as you were able to envisage possibilities. WakeyL

Love and hugs to everyone

"Thanks for All You Do" should be a card that we're sending to you, dear Sue. You show us how to extend the use of our dies, you come up with zillions of card designs, you develop new dies and sentiments year round, and you are amazing! Happy Easter! Hugs.
