Hi everyone! I have to admit to a little bit of an obsession of late. I just can't stop using this pretty spring green coloured card! I have already used it for two of the cards I have made while I'm away too. It is just so fresh looking! When I started this card, I wasn't too sure where I was going, but I like how it came out. I cut the
Embroidered striplet die out of the spring green card and the largest size of the
Seville cutting edge. I used the
Illusion embossing folder on the Seville label to give it some texture. I also cut two of the
Spanish Corner dies out of
coconut white card. I cut a larger piece of
coconut white card and arranged the pieces on it and glued them into place. For my focal element, I cut the
Hollywood die from the California Collection out of coconut white card. I mounted it on foam in the middle of the card. I stamped my sentiment and cut it out with the
Spanish tag die. I inked it lightly with
Bundled Sage before removing it and mounted it on foam in the centre. Using the
Classic Rose die set, I made several flowers with bud centres. This is easily achieved by simply cutting in from the scalloped edges and then following the Blossoms Five tutorial at the top of the blog. Once completed, I "sugared" the flowers with
Iced Snow and added them around the focal element. The largest flower was seated atop a messy bow tied from
white seam binding. I made two decorative stick pins to match too. I finished the card with a double white mat and used
Cosmic Shimmer white PVA glue to dot all the way around the edge. Finished dimensions are 7 1/4" x 9 1/4" in size. All for now, Sue x

This card is stunning, I agree with you the green looks so fresh and a colour I will consider using. I have a thing against green because in my senior school you had to wear bottle green knickers, the were awful thick things - proper passion killers.
Take care.
Love the spring green touch to this one Sue. My wish list for dies is getting longer by the minute, really need to recreate this card. Anne x
Morning Sue, what a beautiful card and yes I too could get hooked on that green card. Have a great day. x
Hi Sue love the green such a fresh card,love linda and lily
Morning Sue, the card today is fantastic and I too am loving the spring green colour, so I must get some and try it out.
Going to the vets this morning so hopefully Oska will be able to have his lampshade off. The stitches are healing and will be taken out too. He's been so good really and I think he's been more friendly to the kittens, let's hope it continues eh?
he's desperate to go out but I think we'll need to keep him in for a few days longer, if only at night, to stop him scrapping.
Craftihappiness to all, love from Pearl
Hi Sue
This card cheers up a very dull wet morning it is so crisp and bright, I love the striplet dies and I hope you have desined some more in your new collection.

Hi sue
Another stunning card love the green colour card you have used must try and make some stick pins thanks Tracy w x
Good morning Sue and everyone. Normally I avoid anything green (having red hair meant that as a child I was made to wear green clothes all the time so I didn't clash!!) but I love this colour. I wish I had a smidgen of your inspiration - it's a shame you can't bottle it for us. Hope that you do a video showing how to do the bud roses as I'm not very good at following written instructions.
Hope that you are managing to have some rest Sue.
Good wishes to all.

What a stunning card! I love the green I hope CE are going to be stocking this colour. The tag is my favourite one EVER it's so pretty I use it a lot. I too hope there's a Christmas striplet die (can't wait for that launch). It's raining here again today so I will be crafting later after I've done the housework of course lol.

Hi Sue
I saw you wrote that you love this green card and have been using it while you are away. I thought you would be having a rest while you were with your mum?. Another stunning card and love what you have done. The spring green is gorgeous. Wonder if this colour is in your foundation card. I shall have to have a look see. Hugs to Pam, Steph and Norah. Cameeli where are you we haven't heard how the wedding went yet.
What a clean looking uplifting card. The green is so soft but vibrant and the dies make the card have a Victorian lacy feel to it. Just fell in love with this one . Xxx
What a gorgeous card, it looks very Spring like and the shade of green is just lovely. x
Hi Sue. What a beautiful card, the green and white look so gorgeous and the overall effect is stunning! Hugs,

Norah,I hope you are feeling a bit better today, you weren't so bright yesterday, bless you.
Pat S Witney, have you taken your Aussie rellos to White Horse Hill at Uffington? Our Canadian relations thought it was amazing. It's not too far from Witney either. Hope the visit is going well.

Morning Sue.
Spring green is my favourite colour too - especially at this time of year when it is everywhere you look outside - so this card is right up my street! The white is lovely with it and the detail of the diecuts makes for a stunning combination!
Vicki x
Lovely card, the green card is very fresh looking.
What a fab card.
Just goes to show even though you have used so many different dies together how good can it look.
I have had a thing for the colour green for a while now so I think I will have to start using it a bit more in my cards too xxxx
Morning Sue, A stunning card, gorgeous die-cuts, and the spring green card is very pretty and fresh, also loving your stick pins.
Lots of love from Patricia xx
Hi there Sue, good morning (if its still morning when you check in) Morning Wilsonettes from a dark evil skied blustery wet Lancashire. Amazing, clean and fresh. A few weeks ago I bought various contrasting shades of green, stacked it with other shades I got that day and its still there ! Thanks for giving me that 'kick up the toush' I needed to pull them out. Only problem is, I love all the shades of card I bought and dont want to part with them ! Am I selfish crafter ??!! Maybe I should make myself a collage card of my favs then I may be able to part with the rest LOL !
Id so love to be able to have the creativity to see a die and know it will also make beautiful roses too, as for the stick pins - I stand NO chance of being able to make those. Although I loved the idea the other day of CE making a kit, especially for those Wilsonettes that dont know where to start with size of beads etc ( it may tempt me to have the odd 'tut' moment) which would be inevitable, as I know more beads would end up on the floor rather than on the pin !!!
I agree with an earlier comment about bottling your talant Sue, Im so stuck for ideas and so many to do, I feel like hiding and forgetting the market. And dear Mr Lancashire ( I use that term loosly) keeps pointing to the calander, thanks love !!!
Well Im done. Hope you are having a lovely time at home with mom and friends Sue.
Cam we need to hear all about your day, please come home soon we are all getting fidgity now hon.
To all lovely Wilsonettes in need of TLC.im sending gentle caring hugs.
Love you.
Lancashire Steph xx
Hi Sue,
Pretty card, loving the green card and mix of dies. I have been creating with my striplet die and have had lots of comments about it, its so pretty.
Donna Jones
Lovely card, Sue!
Nadine
morning Sue from a very blustery day here in Sheffield.
There's nothing wrong with Spring Green. We all need a little Spring/Summer feeling and this is how you give it to us.
Your dies look better and better each time I see them used. I obviously love the colour scheme and the format is one which leads you on.(you see one die first which then leads you on to see another piece).
This is one gift which is going into my 'must do' folder and as I have a thank you card to do I shall be looking at today's gift for your inspiration.
Busy day ahead Friday clean up; Drs visit and then back to cleaning. Have I really had five weeks away? It certainly doesn't feel like it and only been back four days. Ah well.
Take care and see you tomorrow.
Janet x
Morning Sue, so fresh, clean and crisp today, I really like it, thank you for sharing.
Love Janet x To of us in a row!
Like CraftyAnn I don't like green because of school uniform memories! In fact I don't think I've ever worn green since! But this is a lovely soft green so I'm beginning to see green in a different light It' a very pretty card
What more can one say? Simply beautiful
Good morning Sue and everyone.
Well Sue, you know about my love affair with The Striplet but todays card is not one of my favourites Im afraid. However, the fresh green card is a lovely shade.
Have a great day.
Ang x
A breath of spring air, very pretty.
Hope you are having some relaxation too while you are away Sue.
Hi Sue what a stunning card and love the pale green colour too ,but lilac and purple still my favourite.
Marion H
You are right. The color is very very pretty and so is the card :)
Hi Sue,
Gorgeous card and tha green card is absolutely fabulous - very fresh and springlike. I have some in a very similar colour so I'll have to dig it out. I'm pleased your card came out well even though you didn't know where you were going with it! I started to make a card on Sunday for a dear friend's 60 the birthday and sort of knew what I wanted to do! How wrong was I ! 4 hours later I finally made a card that was completely different. I had a nightmare! I had wanted to put gilding flakes behind one of the striplets but couldn't find my double sided adhesive sheets so thought I would just use the gilding flake glue. Big mistake! The gilding flakes just went mushy - didn't let the glue go tacky . So tried again - this time wasn't much better and then to top it all off , I dropped the whole tub of flakes on the floor and the cat. Have you ever tried picking up gilding flakes off a carpet? The poor cat should be black but now she's very sparkly! Anyway, I abandoned that idea and just made a card using the lattice bow with the ribbon strips and Art Deco folder which looks very classy if I say so myself. So Steph you see it's not just you who has trouble with pesky flakes!!!! Anyway must dash have a great day everyone & love & hugs to all. Love Alison xxx
Hi Sue
In common with many others, I love the fresh green you've used. As always, a beautiful composition - a card with the wow factor!
Best wishes, Anne O
Morning Sue. Another lovely fresh card. I like the way the flowers turned out. Another idea from the rose die. Have a nice day. Hugs Heather.x

A beautiful cheery card today, and the white and zesty green is so fresh and clean!!!

Looking forward to a crafting day with my friend Wendy next week, and our list of 'to do' cards will be huge!!
Wishing you, and all your Wilsonettes a happy and healthy day. Love and hugs. Hilary xxxx
Morning Sue, what a delightful card to wake up to this morning, as it is dull and raining here. It certainly has brightened my day, anyway. I love that green you have used, really sets the card off.....xx

Hi Sue,
Lovely card, and yes I love the soft green love everything in fact.
When your dies came out I looked at the striplets and thought I won't get much use out of them, but after seeing what you, Mrs Duck and John Next Door does with them I got one. I haven't stopped using it so useful and can be used in so many ways.
Have a good day.

Morning Sue,
I'm a green girl and just love this card, have to say it did cheer me a bit, I had some really bad news yesterday my younger brother went for a scan as he had not been well for a few months. When he got to the hospital they took one look at him and admitted him. It turns out he has DVT in both legs also pancreatic, stomach, and liver cancer all inoperable . So at the moment life sucks for us as a family.
Sorry to unload here,
Gail Cx
Wow Sue
Im just loving this card with the subtle tones ,and i just love the striplets die as i find it so versatile ,

Oh sue, what a beauty! The Hollywood die cut on top of that gorgeous green looks stunning. When I start a card not knowing where I'm going it usually ends up in the bin - wish I had a tenth of your talent. Pat x
Hello Sue
Such a beautiful card and the fresh green has always been one of my favourite colours.

Morning Sue, lovely spring like card, another colour of card for my stash. I remember when my eldest grand-daughter was young, she wouldn't eat anything green, not even jelly! Every time I see green on anything it reminds me of then. Take care everyone, Jess x
Hi Sue,
Stunning card as always. Thank you for all your inspiration.
Veronique L
Hi Sue,
I'm not surprised you keep returning to this green card, it is beautiful and as you say 'fresh' looking. Love today's card.
Beverley W
It certainly is a lovely fresh colour, and I love your card with it
Green not one of my colours but this looks very fresh, card a little busy for me but I know lots of friends who would love it and you don't make cards for yourself so thanks for the great ideas xD
I agree, the spring green is lovely and fresh, beautiful card yet again Sue.
The bud roses are the perfect finishing touch to this card. I still haven't got round to making the those roses yet, even though they were one of the things I watched you demonstrating at Ally Pally. I've fully mastered the regular roses, so perhaps it's time for me to try something new. Must make an effort this weekend :-)
Have a great weekend.
Nic xx
Good morning Sue and fellow Wilsonettes,
What a beautiful colour of green that you have found and so lovely against the white, making for a really pretty spring like combination. Another beautiful composition masterpiece for our gallery go to's. The roses just look so beautiful on the card and i have just about got them off to about right, i won't tell you how many attempts that took but it's coming along fine. My hubby is like a few on the blog, sees you making a card in the blink of an eye and wonders why it should take me so long to make one. Try to explain the process behind it is a waste of breath.
CraftyAnn i know how you feel as we had navy blue knickers and when you have a pair of hips on you like a couple of battle ships and legs like tree trunks, flattering they are not. It always had Joyce Greenville's song playing through my mind on gym days. Why was it they always had you doing cross country running in the rain or snow? And of course the last one back always had to do 5 times round the track and guess who that was? I tell you, if i couldn't run 6 miles cross country and come in early what made them think i could do 5 times around the track. I was always late for either my next class(and got it in the neck there, lunch when you were left with the scrapings that were cold and you wouldn't give your dog them or the bus home and you would need to walk. Oh happy times from the torture chamber called school.
I hope poor wee Oska gets on fine when he goes to get his stitches out and that he is still making friends with the kittens. I don't know who will be more relieved, you(Pearl) or Oska.
Happy birthday Wee Ryan, i hope you have a smashing day and get lots of lovely presents.
Steph, are the antibiotics taking effect yet on your infection? I do hope so flower as like a lot of us here you have a lot of over pain to contend with and that we bit more can sometimes just push you right to the edge. I do hope you are feeling better soon and if lovely Mr Lancs is got nothing better to do, he could give you a hand and do some of the cutting out for you with the mangle. It would give you a boost and be a big help into the bargain.
Alison(Alimecca), it's lovely that your cat wants to get in on the glitz part of crafting. Don't spoil her though, she might just get to used to being all shades of glimmer and shine and sparkle. Although she might just be a bit hard to train on die cutting and sticking on the card not her. which of us after using glitter or some sort of shine doesn't go around for days with some still on our faces, hair, arms etc. I am normally a dead giveaway in what i've been upto for days after the event although i have never tried to have Tia( a big soft daft chocolate Lab that doesn't know how to bark) helping me with it. She thinks she is doing good in getting her hair into my knitting. I keep telling her, i don't need the extra warmth knitted into the item. Trying to keep her back from the baby pink shawl i am knitting the now for my daughters friend. I knit 1 or 2 ply shawls and can i find any baby wool pink at this thickness? No. I am on 3ply which is beautiful, but looks like double knitting compared to the finer yarn i'm used too.
Oh well, lovely day for the washing to go out, so i will see you all tomorrow hopefully and go and get the washing and crafting lot sorted. Take care my dear friends and sending gentle hugs to our precious friends who are having a hard time. I hope that you have a good day where you are and who else thinks that Cameeli has went away on the honeymoon?
Love and crafty hugs from my beautiful hills that are greeting me this morning,

Such a beautiful card so fresh looking reminds me of Spring when it comes to the fells in the Lake District, some snow some green.
Norah have you tried Pembertons Sewing Centre in Stirling for your wool I get my patchwork supplies from them they are excellent, sadly they don't stock any card making supplies.
Off now to the hospital again with hubby his hand is still bleeding and he looking sorry for himself.
Warm wishes and hugs to those who need them.

You are right Sue, it looks so spring like and incredibly fresh. Love the embossing on the green card too.
Hi Sue,
And a good morning to all Wilsonettes from a windy and sunny South Wales.
What a fresh looking card, a design that would look great for a Spring wedding, I think it looks quite 'bridal' and lacy because of the delicate dies.
I must use some more greens in my card making too.
Hi Sue
Have to agree with you about the spring green,The card is beautiful,adore everything about it,I'm in love with the striplet dies.

Hi Sue. Well as you know green is my favourite colour and this card is just beautiful !! I think this may be the Pastel Green foundations card from CE. I have this card and I absolutely love it !! It is a gorgeous shade of green. I love everything about this card to. The dies look great together and I love the Roses with those little buds in the middle too !! As always a lovely bow and fab stick pins !! It really hope you will bring us some sets of beads to make our own stick pins. All the stick pins you make just look fab. A truly beautiful fresh spring card Sue. Thank you for all your inspiration today. As always it is very much appreciated.

Hi Sue,
It's a truly beautiful, gorgeous, elegant and simply divine card. And I'm not saying that because it's on my windowsill (I won it on one of your shows on C&C).
It makes me feel good every time I look at it.

Beautiful and I agree about the green card, it's a very delicate unusual shade of green. I find green shades very difficult to match with base cards and picking a green from an image.
Lovely colours Sue.

Hello Sue, I agree with you about the lovely soft green card, I love it's softness and looks perfect with the white card. I will be trying out the new way you have made the beautiful flowers over this weekend.

Hello Sue,
This card ticks all my boxes, I love Green it's my favourite colour, my mother hated it, as a child I was never allowed to wear green, so when I started work and buying my own cloths one of the first items purchased was a coat - no prizes for guessing what colour it was!!!!!
I just love everything about this card, the rosebuds are absolutely gorgeous the die cuts are stunning, this card would lift the spirits and any recipient - it's GORGEOUS
Hope you're having a good day, love and best Wishes, Brenda xxx
Sending hugs to everyone who needs them LOL
It is a beautiful green and you can be as obsessed as you like with it! A stunning card I love it.
Sue
Hi Sue and Everybody,
Having just inspected and delighted in my newly sprung beech hedge in all its glory of tenderness, I can only say that your card today is just as fresh, spring-like, and delightful.
Oh, to be in England, now that Spring is here!
I wish you could all smell my Lutium Azalia (grown from seed in 1963)and in its full glory just now..
Have a lovely week-end, whether crafting or gardening, it really is the little things that count.
Love, Lis xx
Morning Sue. Wow, just love this card. Such fresh colours, a real breath of spring. Have a great week end. Hugs. Jan.xxx
Hi Sue,
Another beautiful card today! I love that card and the green is beautiful! Like others I bought my striplet die later as I didn't think I'd get much use out of it. How wrong I was - I use it so much. Watched the video this morning. Will try that card later as have all the bits! I do love that die from the Californian Collection - it's so detailed but cuts so easily.
Oh Gail, I was so sorry to hear about your brother. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family as you try to somehow deal with it all. Sending hugs xx
Julie so pleased your son is on the mend. Such a relief for you. x
Nanna Tina - Happy 7th Birthday to Ryan . Hope you have a lovely ,fun day!
Steph - you seem a bit down which isn't like you - that old mojo will jump out at you when you least expect it!
Your Lancashire weather report was A1 . Sending hugs x
Alison the cat must be a picture - you made me laugh. x
As for green and school uniform - totally agree mine was bottle green and a gold/ yellow. Never worn bottle green since!
Cameeli do hope everything is ok .
Love to all crafting friends.
Myra

ps sorry but can anyone tell me where i can buy the blank stick pins please my local craft shop sells only the type with a bead on the top and usually not the colour i need many thanks j
Hi Sue another gorgeous card, im another who doesn't like green I think it was because when I was a child green paint was cheaper to buy and lasted longer so it was green all over the place lol im I lilac and purple freak. Yvonne xxx

Gail so sorry to hear about your brother,we are all here for you big hugs, Pam hugs to you, Steph, cheer up hun, I hope your in a little less pain, Lynne hope the girls are behaving, Norah the sun always shines in your words. Bad day for me as the foal that was poorly on Wednesday was poorly again this morning, so vet came out, and we think that she has a congenital problem and might not make it, we tubed her to remove any blockage from her throat and she is now on antibiotics incase of fluid getting into her lungs and developing pneumonia, and to top it off one of the stallions has a puncture wound on his leg so he has had to come in and go on antibiotics too! Arghhh.
Hugs to all and hope oska is ok now and poppy pup is doing well too xxxx

Thank you so much Sue for your inspiration xx Hope you are managing to have a bit of a rest and are still having a wonderful time with your mom and family xx Nanna Tina "Happy Birthday" wishes to your grandson Ryan. Hope he's had a wonderful day! xx Julie, great news about your son! Oops Alimecca (Alison)! Bless you. I did that in the kitchen the other day...luckily the lid was on though! At least you'll be able to see your cat in the dark....lol! Pearl, hope Oska is ok? Steph, hope the antibiotics are doing you good x Lorraine, "Happy 21st Birthday" to your son. Hope you're all having a good time x Oh Gail, so so sorry to hear about your brother.
