You Mean So Much To Me


Hi guys!  I thought that I would mix it up a bit today and show one from the 4 Day Deal shows.  I absolutely love this one myself.  These Asters are just simply exquisite dies and stamps, they look so real don't they!  I started by embossing the background using the small polka dot mask.  I only did the top of my card with it, then decided to use my score board on the bottom of the card.  I love the way it adds just a bit of interest without taking you away from the main feature of the card.  I cut a border from the scallop insert edgeability die and backed it with the matching sky blue card (part of the pastel card pack).  I tied a double bow out of white silky crush ribbon and dressed it up with a pearl embellishment and stick pins.  Next I cut one of the Decorative Oval windows from Heartfelt Creations.  I used a bit of 3D mounting foam on the back to raise it for dimension.  I cut several of the delicate Aster dies in varying sizes in the sky blue card, then placed them on the matching inked stamp to get more detail in them.  I find it easier to do these that way rather than stamping and then cutting them out.  You can cut two pieces of card at a time to make your flowers fuller too.  I added some centres that I inked with mustard seed and some leaves that I inked with Forest Moss to create my floral element.  I glued them to the side of the window and added a stamped sentiment on a strip coming out from them.  I matted my sentiment in blue and cut forks into the ends.  I use a glue dot to hold the strip in place with a bit of a curve to it.  I pierced the double white mat and added some flatback pearls to the corners to complete the card.  I am really trying to bring a bit of spring into our lives, even if mother nature isn't!  Finished dimensions are 6 1/2" x 8 1/2" in size.
I have had several requests for other cards to be auctioned and since I can really only hold the auctions while I am in the UK, I have decided to put up two cards at the same time.  You just need to specify which number card you are bidding on when you email me.  I will get another card loaded up sometime today for you so please check back mid morning.  Also, don't forget that if you would like to reserve a copy of the demo DVD that we will be filming while I am in Scotland in July, please email them at thepapeterie@gmail.com  All for now, Sue x

Again such a gorgeous card here Sue. It obviously takes some time for the dies to get overhere, as I haven´t got mine yet, but I´m so exited to get them and start playing and make such awesome creations like this here too. Thanks sooo much for all the great shows, I´ve been watching here these past days with both you and Julia. You girls just rocks.

englishrose897 said...

Hi Sue, lovely card.

Audrone Padervinskaite said...

Dear Sue, this card is one of the best not because of Asters,I believe any flower would look great, but because of colour combination.this is a feast for eyes. Another stunning feature is simple scoring.I remember you used it on A few other of your projects. This visual effect crates an extra interest and dimension in card. Makes to go back in circles and explore more. Def initely genius in simplicity.

Good morning Sue. Another stunner. I have finally received my Aster dies ad Samos. It s not easy to cut them out after stamping. I have tried following the instructions too and still can't get it right. I think I will be doing them in future the same way that you do, and stamp after cutting them out. Xx

Gorgeous card Sue. Received, this morning, my parcel with the aster dies and the pastel card pack. Aster dies are lovely but was disappointed with the pastel cards. Dont know what I was expecting but must have been better quality than I got. They are just plain.

Much love,

Vick said...

Hi Sue,

Another glorious card today, I love the freshness of it and hopefully spring is on its way! But my first love is always the darker shade combos or white on white, so hopefully we will get to see some of your darker combos featuring the new dies as I know you have plenty to go through, they were all such glorious cards and I don't think the shows even scratched the surface of showing them!
I have had an email telling me my dies and goodies have been dispatched and are on their way so I cannot wait to play with them who knows what I will come up with, hugs to you lovely lady and I cannot wait till April 9th for your next extravaganzas!! YAY!!! More Sue Wilson!!!! Hugs xxx Vick

I did love those Aster stamps and dies, very elegant... this is a special card Sue, loving the colours... brightens up a dreary day here in Kent. enjoying the shows this week, you and Julia are working so hard.....

Katie-Louise Sweetlove said...

Hi Sue
What a brilliant card this is, love it all. I have the window die delivered today so I wanted some more inspiration you read my mind ! Thank you.
I love the asters dies and stamps but alas I was unable to afford them this time hopefully you'll bring them back later in the year for me. I have my fingers crossed.
I've been loving your picks of the week shows so full of inspiration when you see Julia tell her for me I enjoyed her shows (almost as much as yours she does come up with some interesting ideas but cards aren't quite as stunning as yours).
It's a shame you can't come to Hobbycrafts in the NEC but quite understand how impossible this is ,hopefully another time. Hope you get a rest from such hard crafting soon although I do enjoy seeing your demos and cards on the TV but I wouldn't miss this blog even though I've not managed to add a comment very often recently - apologies for that.
Take care and thank you for all your hard work and inspiration,
Best wishes from Katie-Louise sweetlove

Heather said...

Lovely card Sue. So glad you mentioned that the asters have a matching die - I was thinking you had cut them out by hand. Now I know better, I'll be looking out for them and adding them on my wish list as I think they look fab!

Katie-Louise Sweetlove said...

Just wanted to say I have the newer pastel card pack and am very happy with it and now also have an anti static powder bag too so I'm ready for more cards and embossing powders for my cards and antistatic-ing the tan mat. Going to aim to get a pergamano piercing tool for my ruler I do have a pokey tool that will do the job but where's the fun in that!
Thanks Sue.

HI Sue - just love the simplicity of the colours on this card - the flowers are a must have - hope they are coming back soon. The scoring on the bottom of the card is super.
loving the Shows with Julia and can't wait for Sunday we are truly being spoilt this month.
