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.
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
Morning Sue. A beautiful card thank you, thank you for the great shows yesterday it was lovely seeing you. Take care all and a Happy Easter weekend Kitty.
Morning Sue, really enjoyed the shows yesterday, love all the tips when seeing you demonstrate like colouring those flowers! Beautiful card. Love Jean xxx
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.
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
Hi Sue It was fantastic to see you on Hobbymaker yesterday and I really enjoyed both shows. Thank you for all the great tips and I hope it won’t be too long before we see you demonstrate again. A beautiful card today and now we know you coloured the flowers.
Hi Sue I’m sorry I missed your launch and TV appearance! 😢 I’ve just been catching up on your posts and Wow the dies and samples are beautiful! Hugs x Heather T
Hi Sue, Loved you doing this type of card yesterday as sometimes the demonstraters have all the paperpiecing done so it was great to see you doing it. well done. great to see you back on tv hope it won't be as long before you're back again. A
"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.
Beautiful card Sue and a great sentiment. Great shows yesterday, nice to see you back on UK TV xx
