TEAL is back!!! This colour has become one of my favourites since I started watching your blog and I always have some in stock.
Today's gift is in one way not a usual Sue Wilson gift but in another when looking at the completed card Oh yes it is!
Such a simple but so elegant - I really do love today's gift.

Happy crafting
Love Tina x
Good morning Sue
Yay! a Teal card and OH NO! another die to go on my 'I need' list I will never be rich. It's such a pretty card will have to watch the video later. I had a bit of an emergency last night my Grand Calibur cutting plate fell and cut my leg which need to be stitched. You can imagine the doctor when I said how I did it. He didn't have a clue what it was and imagined it was some firm of carpentry tool lol. So I'm off to get it checked this morning.
Hugs x

Morning Sue, This looks like a lovely die, have not got any of this range, must have a look. Teal is always a favourite with me.
Love Rosemarie xx
Celestial and heavenly, Sue, love this card and for once have to say it doesn't need a bow! Thanks again for all the tips and good to see the piercing again - I had a hopeless pokey tool and too thin a mat, but looked back to a previous video and could identify the ones you have - so voila!! am now fully poked and matted up.
'P' in Wales
Hi Sue lovely card so pretty the stars in the sky take you off on a journey, beautiful. Just read Heather's post and did not mean a journey to A&E, I hope the leg soon heals! Take care all x
Dear Sue What a wonderful card and cannot wait to watch the video later. Take Care Love Michelle S xxx

Hi Sue
Beautiful card lovin the teal colour.
Hugs Annx without an "e"
So so beautiful in its simplicity
Another Great Video and Beautiful Card ! I finally managed to get a 1 millimeter pokey tool and what a difference it makes, a lot of tools don't give the size so in my case it was a trial and error thing. I don't have any of these dies or teal card so I will just have to admire them and content myself with what I do have, hope your leg heals soon Heather and that's not what a cutting plate is meant to cut!
Another die on my wish list!!! Like many others I will never have any money at this rate lol!
A lovely card and love the colour.
Hope you're ok Heather T.
Off to watch the video

Great card Anorher must have die and card
Hi sue
A teal card, haven't had one for awhile. And it's fabulous. Just love this doily die. Saw Nicky demo them quickly yesterday on her show. See how far behind I am on watching shows. these look another must have. Hope you are good to go today Steph. I'll have to come back to read your musings. Up earlier today as I'm off to school. Will watch the video later Sue. I'm getting behind on these as well. Will have to try and get hubby off the computer. I know I could treat myself to a tablet for my birthday.
Hi Sue,
Lovely card I will have to case it with dies and embossing folders that I already have.
Donna Jones
Good morning Sue,
Another wow card, I love the colour Teal, and it makes for a very effective card.
I can see I will be buying some of the doily range of dies.

Wow stunning card love it all xx hazel
Hello our dear crafty leader, hello my dear crafty Wilsonettes. Time for a crafty peak at your card today Sue, which looks beautiful yet again. Oh Heather Heather Heather, what are you like ? But can you imagin how the conversation could have gone had the doctor been a 'secret crafter' ?! How shocked would you have been : )
Will have to return later as today is the day Im hooked up to a drip for most of the day, which means a day away from craft : ( which I can ill afford if Im honest, still lots to do ready for Sunday, plus Mr Lancashire's birthday card to make !
Cant wait to watch your tutorial later Sue, something nice to think about as the meds go through.
Hope everyone has a lovely day whatever your plans, and if your not feeling up to par, remember - tomorrow is another day. Hope your check up goes ok Heather.
Love n hugs to you all. See you later.
Lancashire Steph xxx
Hi Sue another stunning card love the colour and the doily die and another card with no big bow yeh!
Marion H
Clean, fresh and stunning. I can think of lots of times. I could use this style - have to get the die first, or should I say save for the die first! Beautiful colour combination.
Another stunning card here Sue, soo beautiful in that gorgeous teal color.
Hi Sue,
Such a pretty stunning card. Thank you.
Much love,
Shirley T. xxxxxxxxxx
Beautiful card today,love the teal and white.
Good morning Sue and fellow Wilsonettes,
Well another beautiful card today Sue and in such a beautiful colour. The tied together embossing folder has a mistletoe look to it, just putting in 3 dots of the pearly glue and you have mistletoe. What can i say, my brain goes exploring other universes on a regular basis. Although i don't have any of the components except the piercing ruler (not a bad start), i will see what i can use to simulate your lovely creation.
Killie Tracy, i think you and i must be married to identical brothers and i wont say what mines calls my crafty things, it is not for public hearing before the 9pm watershed. He can't see the point in having more than 1 die, but he can see the point in him having 3 electric drills, umpteen socket sets etc...
Heather flower, i know they say its a cutting plate, but you are suppose to put your dies on it not your leg. Might be a very tight sandwich to go through the G.C though. Please refrain from putting bizarre objects like legs, hands and feet in my case on cutting plate.Hee Hee I hope you heal quicker than my foot has done from dropping said plate last week onto the top of my foot. I must be getting old the fact that it is not healing.
Take care everyone and hope you have a good day, from a cold but clear crisp Glenochil. See you all tomorrow hopefully,
Love and crafty hugs
Norah (Glenochil)

Simple yet elegant, love everything about it from the colour to the embossing folder to the dies, brilliant

Hi Sue, another gorgeous card. Very delicate looking with the doily. Thanks for another video.
Wow!!!absolutely stunning, just love it. Off to watch the video.
Hi Sue, beautiful card exquisite colour scheme.
ValC xx
Absolutely stunning card and luv how you have used the insertion for the centre with the die and the twisted metal tag die - fab xx also thanks for the update on the piercing - I have tried this in the past but I use a Tim Holtz ruler as the CE ruler wasn't out then (I don't think) which I have had for a long time and not sure if the holes in that are smaller than the CE one or whether my pokey tool is not big enough but it doesn't achieve the same affect as you xx I will have to persevere!! Fab card and luv everything about it xx GailT xx
Hi Sue
Very pretty, great video.

Hi Sue. I love video day !! As usual another fab one !! Some great ideas. Thank you for showing more closely and slowly how to do your paper piercing. It is really helpful. Your card is just gorgeous as always. As you know, green is my favourite colour and I adore my Teal cardstock !! It looks great with just white card to. I like the look of the couture creations round die. It looks very pretty and intricate. Your interlocking circles background folder is on my wish list. I have been thinking about getting the twisted metal tabs set for a while now. I may have to treat myself !!
This is a really fab card today Sue. I will have to give the paper piercing a go.
Lots of crafty love and hugs to everyone, Love Tres x x x
Hi Sue, great card - my fave in a while. Good colours too.
Gorgeous card, love the colour!
Mmmm wasn't sure about this at first, missing your flowers and bows, but I watched the video and then came back to the pictures and must say it has grown on me.
Lucky me I have a stash of Teal card and I think I can find some dies which will work.

Good afternoon Sue,
Haven't been around much due to ongoing health problems and so have been unable to "blog-in" on a regular basis. Needless to say I have loved all your cards of late and look forward to watching those videos I have missed at a later date. Enjoy the rest of your day.
Margaret A.
Hello Sue. Lovely card today in my absolute favourite colour - well, one of them! I have this folder and love it even more than tied together. Just a bit more texture I find. Thanks so much for the video. xx Maggie (better without a bow)
Another wonderful video, I'm going to need some of those new dies they are beautiful. Loving teal it's another of my favourite colours. I watch your videos on my ipad and find viewing them through Facebook and creative expressions link gives me a much much better picture.
I hope this helps anyone else with a ipad who might be finding the picture a bit fuzzy.
Keep up the good work all the best Pauline ( freedom99)

Hi Sue,
What a fantastic card .. I love the colour and design. That embossing folder is gorgeous, I use it a lot.
Not a bow in sight but still a stunner of a card. Those metal accents are such a useful die that I feel I NEED that one, too.
Hugs, Rose
Lovely design Sue and thank you so much for the video. Pat x
Beautiful card, so simple but really effective. Love the doily die.
Hi Sue and Wilsonettes, back again Im afraid ! Feeeling a bit 'odd' after a day on a drip, but has to be done, moaning wont change a thing, had a catnap, and realised I'd got the video to catch up with (just the kind of card Maggie w.a.b) would appreciate, NO bow on this card I notice, but equally beautiful Sue. I have ordered a pack of teal card along with a few more colours, and cant wait until I collect it : ) I also have the pricking ruler and really like how it finishes off the card (a word of warning to any of my friends that have arthritic hands/fingers as I do, enjoy doing it but do a little at a time as it can be a painful enjoyment) you have to try and use as much pressure as your pain level will allow to keep the ruler from moving - in fact Im going to do an experiment tomorrow with it. I was given a silicone thin gripper to help me open jard etc from the hospital so I will try using that just under the ruler and see if it helps secure it in place on the card I want to prick (wow, did I REALLY just think about doing that) ??!! Well I never !
That doilly die is stunning, such a pretty little thing. I love watching the tutorials Sue, when I grow up I wanna be just like YOU : )
That's it for now, I hope your hospital visit went ok Heather, and your preparations are all sorted for your interview Thursday Cameel.
Who ever that CARDSERVER is, he is NOTHING to do with our Sue or card making (he is an imposter) !! Using Sue's wonderful world to advertise : (
Im done.
Sending gentle hugs to everyone.
Off to bed to recover from today.
Love you.
Lancashire Steph xxx
Lovely looking card and a great tutorial. I bought the pricking ruler a while ago and haven't used it yet so thanks for the simple instructions! As always Sue, you're a pleasure to watch and so creative!

Hi Sue,
Just managed to watch the video and realised the colour card you used was teal. On my screen the colour looked blue, then green, and even slightly yellow in the final picture. Hey Ho. Anyway love the design of the card and it doesn't look too complicated to do either. Thank you so much for sharing.
