Hello friends! This card isn't maybe as flashy as the ones that I usually put on offer for the card giveaway, but it is quite pretty in real life. I hope you don't mind, but I like to change it up sometimes so that there are different styles to appeal to different tastes. So I am hoping that you will want to leave a comment today to be in the drawing for this one! I started with a piece of decorative paper from my stash (Teresa Collins, I believe). I added a smaller panel that was done out of
coconut white card that I embossed with the
Illusion embossing folder. I cut the largest die from the
California Collection Decorative Frames Set B out of white card and inked through the die with
Tattered Rose distress ink before removing it. I stamped the sentiment from the
Becca Feeken's stamp set called Friendship Vintage Labels Seven. I cut it out with my
California Collection Set A largest size. I inked it with
Tattered Rose as well and mounted it atop the other die. For my embellishments, I stamped the Justrite daisy three times using a black archival ink pad. I cut out only the daisy head, leaving the leaves behind. I coloured them with
Distress markers (Tattered Rose, Scattered Straw) and mounted them on foam around the lower corner of my sentiment, slightly overlapping them. Using
Cosmic Shimmer dries clear glue, I added some to eachh of the centres and sprinkled them with
Diamond Snow for a bit of bling. I cut some of the
Fern Trio die and added them as well as a messy bow tied from
white seam binding and
white tulle. I matted the entire piece on a double white mat and added
Cosmic Shimmer white PVA glue dots around the edge as accents. The final touch was three
flatback pearls in the upper corner. Finished dimensions are 7 1/4" x 8 1/4" in size. I'll announce the winner on Saturday's post. All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue. Beautiful card, I love it. The Illusion embossing folder works so well on this one, as do the flowers and the background paper : )
Pam, sending your daily hug, I am so glad that you take a little comfort from us all. It is always good to see your name at the top of the comments : )
Take care.
So different for you Sue. Nice to see how you have lots of elements and bring them all together in a stunning card.
Good morning Sue
Another lovely card and I love to see your different styles
Pat x
Love the asymmetry of this card and I have all the elements apart from the daisy stamp so must try it. Hugs from Ireland. Evelyn.
Another fab card today, mabe not as flashy but wonderful!
Craftihappiness to you all, love from Pearl
Such delicate colouring and a pretty style, what is not to like? I spent yesterday making stained glass windows, pleased with the result and the dies are fantastic. Was surprised quite how long the glue took to dry but the final result is great. Thank you so much for sharing the idea, and of course designing the wonderful Calabria die xx
Each day I am thankful for ... waking up and seeing your lovely cards. Today's is no exception. Don't think I would ever describe any of your cards as 'flashy' - opulent, extravagant, stunning, downright gorgeous certainly but always in the best possible taste!! (An old TV joke - ask OH.)
'P' in Wales
Totally gorgeous Sue, what a beautiful card. I received my new Art Deco embossing folder yesterday and now I will have to put the Illusion one on my list! Does that list ever get shorter? Thanks Sue for all your inspiration
Marion B xx

Hi Sue
What a lovely card for today's giveaway, I will have to add this folder to my wish list, I don't stamp but I have a daisy like die so that might work.
Love and hugs to all
Happy crafting
Love Tina x
Hello Sue, I think this card is perfect, from the layout to the colours used, and love that background paper. The verse is really meaningful. I would love to win any of your cards. Bx
Fabulous creation! Maybe a bit too "peachy" to my taste but the design
and those pretty-pretty-pretty fuzzy-cut flowers are very nice.
Take care.
Hugs,
Eemeli
Lovely card Sue.
Hi Sue,
I'd love to win this one, it's gorgeous. Love the colours, dies and composition. The fern dies make perfect leaves for the flowers.
Hugs, Rose
Good morning Sue
What a beautiful giveaway card I love it. The Illusion embossing folder is so clever it looks different each time you look at it (you'd think you'd designed it like that lol). Like Nanna Tina I don't have the stamp but do have a daisy die I could use. I love the verse another 'I need' I'll never be rich.
I hope everything went well yesterday for you Steph.
Myra P that was so funny yesterday and 'P' in Wales I got the joke.

Morning Sue, Looks like quite an easy card, but equally pretty, I love it !! especially the fern trio die-cuts and the daisies, it all 'works' perfectly together. I would love this card.
Lots of love from Patricia xx
Good morning Sue and everyone. Another stunning inspirational card - thank you. It's wonderful to see the sentiment take centre stage, so often we treat them as "afterthoughts".
Sue xxx
Hii Sue. This is a lovely card I am not sure why your apologising for it. I think it's perfect. As you say not everyone like really fussy cards. I would love to win it. Thank you for posting it. Have a lovely day all.

Hi All, another beautiful card, stamping is my thing.
Do you cut out first and then colour or vice versa?
As someone already said such a lovely calming colour.
Best Wishes Lilian
I would love this creation to stand in my craft room, who wouldn't. It's simply gorgeous. My beautiful daughters birthday today and MINE tomorrow. She loved her card made with dies and stamps from Sues collection. Have a good day everyone. Hugs Theresa x
Another beauty , i live the colours .
Crafty hugs Rachel x
I just love your cards that mix embossing and stamping, and this one is a perfect example of that. Love the flower centres, so pretty. The sentiment is also heartfelt. I would love to win this card!
Good morning Sue,
This is so my type of card, I love it! I really like it when the sentiment has centre stage so to speak.
Gail Cx
Morning Sue. It does not matter what you do with your cards they always look beautiful but this one as you say is different from your bling cards. I love the way you use a load of different dies and make them all work togeather. The embossing folder looks different each way you turn it its a must have for my collection and the fern trio with the flower heads are lovely so pleased i have got them. Hope you are having a great time with your family.
Best Wishes.
Denise x
Morning Sue,
This is gorgeous, love the colours and the papers. Your embossing folders are ace, guessing these are new due to come out lol?!
The verse is brilliant Becca does do some really wonderful verses but I notice she does not do mail order from her blog so does she have a web site that we can purchase from? I have always loved her verses so it would be great to get hold of some.
Love & Hugs

Hi Sue,
Beautiful card, loving the peach and white colours and the touch of bling on the flower centres.
Donna Jones
Hi Sue,
This might not be flashy ( your word!) but it is lovely. As others have said it could easily be adapted for those who don't stamp by using flower dies. I personally like the stamped flowers. Pam pleased you're doing so well. Snow queen enjoy your new fur baby! Steph & Norah hope today is better. Jean hope your son is ok. Cameeli we are all waiting to hear how the wedding went! Love & hugs to everyone, Alison xxxx
Beautiful thought provoking verse, I love it when a sentiment is the focal point of a card. Love it! Xxx
GM Sue - lovn that Ilusion EF - I can feel another fave coming on! Thanks for the great video yday - the pinch and roll tip will make all the difference I think as when I've made them before using the stamp and rolled the petal edges over a brush and then assembled, without pinching and rolling, they never looked like yours did - know I now why!

This card is so lovely. I know it would want to live with me :)

Morning Sue, I think anyone of us would love to win this card, if is beautiful! Love the dies and do love the stamps too. Love Jean xxx
Good morning Sue. Today's card is. Just as lovely as your others, in its own way. Anyone would be happy to rec
morning Sue
Thank you for today's gift - it may not be a 'fancy' as some of your gifts but still very desirable and I am still more than happy to be a foster mum.
I love the colour scheme of today. Simple and very tender and the format is truly gentle and will fit any occasion whether with a little bit more bling or even taking the ribbon away.
Am here back in Sheffield and so today is one of those days where I have to now unpack and get everything back into place here. So no crafting for me today. I hope that there are some of my Wilsonette sisters out there who feel the same when returning home - I hate unpacking!!
Take care everyone and see you tomorrow.

Hello - it's me again I forgot to say that all my beautiful Sue Wilson dies and folders etc were waiting for me - They look absolutely fabulous and my fingers are itching!!!!
Janet x
Hi Sue
I think this is a lovely card and I would love to win it! I like the sentiment and I like the composition. Flashy? I don't think I'd ever describe any of your cards as flashy! Complex, perhaps, but never flashy and always inspiring. best wishes, Anne O
Hello Sue, there is no need to apologise for a slight change in style. I, for one, like variety. The card is beautiful.
Love,
Rosalind x
Really lovely Sue, like all your cards maybe I can be that good one day x
Skybluepinkpixi
This is so beautiful and the colours are lovely. I love the way you combine various folders, dies and stamps to such wonderful effect
Don't know why you would think this beautiful card wouldn't be liked as much. I think it is stunning and although it is nice to use dye cut flowers these are really beautiful too. The designs are always excellent and something we can aspire to or adapt to what we have in our stash. Thank you for bringing it to us and not hiding it away. Certainly a winner.
Beautiful card Sue.
Gr Elly
I love this card, great colour and fabulous sentiment
Hi Sue,
A beautiful card and sentiment. It's time to get my patterned papers out again. I keep buying them but don't like using them. Nothing new there then. I have just the place in my craft room to display this lovely card if I were lucky enough to win it. Thank you. X
A very different "Sue"card,but oh so lovely. Pretty colours and flowers. Love the plain coordinated with the patterned
paper. Xx
Morning Sue
Just my colours just love it. Love the flowers
I did my interpretation of your card yesterday and I am very pleased with it. Changed the flowers as they would be too big for posting. Hope you are enjoying your time in USA and not working too hard.
Morning Sue, another beautiful card as always
Hi Skybluepinkpixi,
Did you get my message yesterday ?
Hi Sue - well you may say this isn't as flashy as some of your cards but I think it's beautiful. I love the colour combination and if I could produce a card like this I would be more than pleased. Love your use of different dies too. Best wishes
YvonneMayxx
Morning sue,
Another great card, i do so love these soft colours that give warmth too a card. I too like a verse on the card front as well.Enjoy youre day.

Beautiful card! I love the daisy stamp and how you have fussy cut them, also the fern dies and background paper, I don't have this folder but could try the Art Deco one, as they are all lovely.
I'm with you Janet , I don't mind packing to go on holiday, but absolutely Hate the unpacking and all it entails!
Hugs to all xo
Hello Sue
Today's card may be a little different but it is just as beautiful as your usual cards. I, like many other of your followers would be over the moon to win it!

Hi Sue a pretty card I haven't seen the fern leaves on cards before but they look great on this card. might have to add them to my list.
Denise X
A very soothing card Sue, doesn't need to be flashy!! The words of the sentiment are so suitable. Love from Jackie D
It may not be flashy but it is beautiful I don't have all of the tools but I'm definitely going to try something similar There's a saying which I can't remember the wording but basically means if we try to copy it's sincerest form of flattery... Would love to win this
Good morning Sue, and everyone.
Your cards are never flashy Sue - just very elegant, tasteful, and absolutely stunning!!!
I love today's creation, with such a beautiful verse, and whoever wins it will have something to treasure.
Wishing you, and all your Wilsonettes a happy and healthy day.
Love and hugs. Hilary xxxx

Good morning Sue and fellow Wilsonettes,
Sue, we come on to your blog for our daily dose of inspiration and delight, we are NEVER disappointed no matter what the goodies that you have in store for us and today is no exception. Not everyone likes all the pigs and whistles and to get inspired to do something totally different for others is fantastic. This card is really beautiful and magical in a totally different way from normal. I think this verse is us on this blog as we do have lovely friends who are the family we would choose for ourselves. Thank you for bringing us that continuous supply of magic each day.
Steph flower, thinking of you today as i know you will be sore and worried, but please don't. Take it as easy as you can but i know from personal experience keeping as busy as able to takes your mind off the pain, but take care.
Sue C (Snow Queen) ooooh i can feel that excitement as you are waiting to go and pick up the newest member of your family. I wish you a lot of joy with your new "baby" as there is nothing like having a lovely soft head to stroke or silky ears and they love you no matter what which is lovely and so soothing and stress relieving. I wish i could take Tia out for a walk but i think i would need to be on a pair of rollerskates and just be pulled along behind, but on second thoughts, if i can't stay up straight on my own two feet, i have no chance on a pair of rollerskates. Making friends with the pavement comes to mind somehow.
Teresa(Tob), i hope your daughter has a lovely birthday today. Now as my mum would say "couldn't you have held on for another few hours" when she could have been your birthday present. I have almost 7 years bar 4 days between my children and my daughter always wanted a wee brother for her birthday. The way she seen it, i was already 3weeks overdue so what was another 4 days? I ask you, just seeing that it wasn't her with this ever expanding tummy that was pushing on everything inside.My mum wanted him to be born early so that it could be the 18th of July and easier for her to remember, as i was June and my daughter August, both the 18th so that would make it nice and simple for her to remember. The thought "yes mum, i'll do that just so that you can remember easily" came to mind and i don't think. But it was like waiting for a number 7 bus, you wait for ages and then 2 come along at once making it a very expensive week.
Well from a rainy day Glenochil (not Georgia) with the clouds having a rest on the top of the hills (I didn't realise how tiring it was being a cloud) i will wish you all my dear Wilsonettes, a great day and if the sun isn't shining above you, i hope it is in your hearts. Sending gentle hugs to our delicate friends who need them the most,
Love and crafty hugs
Norah (Glenochil)
Hi Sue. I agree, it is a very pretty card and I love it. SueL

Hi what a wonderful card. Just right to brighten up the day

Hi Sue, what a beautiful card. Love this set of stamps , I use mine often. It looks like the fern die will have to go on my must have list. Thanks for sharing , anyone would be delighted to win this card. Lol lynne m x x x
Spent most of yesterday on garden duty to prevent little b's from digging up bulbs and new plants. However , knew that the kitchen floor needed washing twice!!. Why twice you may ask , well every time I wash the floor ( very large L shape) my little divas sit at the back door watching me then when I have finished they run around the garden to gather up speed launch themselves through the door hit the floor and slide the length of the kitchen. The expression on their faces is priceless. This is done over and over until they have to lay down for a rest. This is when they are contained in the lounge whilst I wash the floor again. Perhaps instead of a gymnast Tilly wants to be an ice skater!!
Lynda- Annie, Bambi and even Costa-Lota ( freddy) are gorgeous. Good job Terry didn't want a snake aaarrrggghhhhhh.
Norah - wee soul her ambition !!! Tilly is so not graceful more like a bull in a china shop bless her. Sending you gentle hugs and lol hope you feel better soon x x x
Lindsay - sending you gentle hugs cuz of your poorly rib. Glad your mum's ankle is getting better.
June & Karen - hugs to you from poochies
Steph - hope all went ok yesterday.
Snowqueen - have a great first day with your puppy.
To all on this wonderful blog - hugs from my fur babies and me x x x x
HI SUE

Your cards are always stunning but I know what you mean. When you make them every day there are some that you feel are better than others yet all may be lovely in their own way. Today's card is no exception. I love the peach and the flowers and leaves are lovely.

Who wants flashy when they can have something as beautiful as this? Fabulous card Sue, I love the delicate colours in the background paper and the flowers. Pat x
What's not to like with this card. So many ideas for us to use. Personally, I like a patterned background, love the sentiment, and the overall layout works very well, showing us not to be too symmetrical.
Cheers

I am a relatively new crafter and new to your blog, and although I am supposed to be working right now, I can't stop reading your blog and looking at all the beautiful inspirational cards you create. You make everything look so easy on your videos. Your dies and embossing folders are a must have for me and I'm busy making a list as we speak.
Enjoy your day :-)
This card is just as flashy as your others card....it is beautiful...I like all the embellishment that you added on this card...
Well done Sue
I love this one Sue, everything just says to me... yip... that's for me..and I know who to send it to. Such a lovely sentiment... am gonna check out the stamp set. Thanks for your continued inspiration.
It doesn't really matter what you do with a card Sue.....they are all beautiful! Love this. Have a good day. Fingers crossed!!
GM Sue and bloggers! I really love how you've done this card, it's beautiful, big bold flowers and sentiment is lovely. Perfect just as it is!
Hugs Annie
I can't imagine any reason why anybody wouldn't want to win this card. It's beautful.

Just beautiful :)
Hi Sue, all your cards are beautiful I don't think I've ever seen a bad one sue, I have not commented on your cards for the last couple of days, (sorry about that)
My 16 year old son has very bad asthma attack and was rushed to hospital Sunday, it was a very bad few hours waiting, then he passed out, the asthma is now under control,
Now They just can't get his heart rate down its 140 and he is on full oxygen, we now just have to wait, and I hate waiting, any way I came home for a cuppa and sat here and had a look at your cards and comments, I thought I would let all my Wilsonet family know, I will take all the HUGS that people give on this blog to my son. crafty hugs Julie xxx
Susan rusman I got you message thank you, hugs Julie xx
Good Morning Sue,
What a pretty card today...I love the flowers they are big and bold and just what I like to see.

Morning Sue, another gorgeous card today, what's not to like! Surprise surprise, I even have all the elements to make this wonderful creation. Thank you again Sue for all your inspiration. Take care, Jess x
What a lovely card, and such a beautiful sentiment. The embossing folder & flowers sets it of a treat.
Hi Sue,
Such a serene card today, the soft colours and beautiful sentiment would add a touch of grace to any body's home. Good luck to all to win this beauty.
Indeed, a very different card today, but still lovely.
Very pretty card, Sue. Your new die cut leaves are so beautiful. Thanks for giving us the chance to win such a gorgeous card
Just love this card and the apricot colouring. The embossing shows the leaf dies off to perfection and the sentiment is so right for the card. Thanks for all the inspiration Sue. Hugs Maureen Haven't commented for a couple of days due to a few days away in the smoke and a very sad occassion to go to. Will be back in full voice now hopefully!!
Lovely colours - like it!
Hi Sue,
How could we ever put Sue Wilson's card and boring in the same sentence? Never! The card is so soft today and gentle , the daisies and fern look gorgeous. Lovely sentiment too. Love what you've done to the centre of the flowers.
I said I'd make roses last night ! Nope - was too tired! Why do they make Care Homes so hot? Picture looked pretty good! Butterflies were coloured very imaginatively! However Sue everyone loved your flowers and leaves. Two ladies asked if they could make something to send to great - grandaughters! So we made simple cards and they were so chuffed! Thanks Sue!
Karen thanks, I did have fun x
Norah been in stitches at your tired clouds! Ours here today must be exhausted because they not moving ! x
Heather T glad you saw funny side - it just tickled me and I typed a howler fairly recently!
Happy birthday to Theresa's daughter and to you for tomorrow Teresa xx
Janet hate unpacking and all the mess that goes with it! x
Julie so sorry about your son. How worrying for you sending you both love and hugs xx
Steph - ouch that sounds painful - so sorry you have an added pain. x
That's all folks, I think!
Love to all, Myra
Good morning everyone :)
Sue today's card is different but still bears all the hallmarks of a Sue Wilson creation with all your attention to detail. I love it and would love to win it :D
I don't know what you mean Sue - I think this card looks every bit as glamourous as always!!! Yx
Hi Sue,
I know lots of people like daisy type flowers so this should be a great hit with them.

Gorgeous Card Sue!
I love this card, the colours are fab, the flowers are pretty and the sentiment is lovely.
It would be a great pleasure to own this card as much as it would be to have any of your other cards.
Happy Crafting!!! :) X X
Lovely soft colour palette.
Good Moring Sue and Wilsonettes, hope your jaw infection clears soon Lancashire Steph, you must be in agony.
I like today's card , Sue and other cards you've shown previously using this lovely 'Hello Daisy stamp '. I've just checked, as I thought this is one I already have. I do and I've got it with me!! I have quite a few stamps now and sometimes forget exactly what I have got LOL.
I have started cataloging all my stamps, dies, ink pads etc. but is a work in progress, especially as I keep adding more.
Does anyone else have this problem ??
Best Wishes all,
Angela in Dubai x
Hi. Lovely card Sue. Love the colours. Have a nice day and hugs to all xxx
Hi Sue you say this card is not as flash but it is so nice to have a card with a verse on the front LOVELY thank you
Hi Sue
It may not be a Flashy card but it is so very beautiful, a card anyone would love to win and own. Those flowers are beautifully coloured Sue and love the design
Take care

Hi Sue, what a lovely card, I just love the peachy tones and the composition. Have a good day. Linda K.
The contrasting colours of the background and flowers is fabulous x
Hi Sue
A beautiful card Sue. Anyone would be thrilled to win this. Thank you.
Bye for now.
SandraP xxx
I love this card-please don't ever apologize for any of your creations!
I especially liked how you inked the die cut piece behind the top sentiment layer-it adds extra depth to the card as if you had matted with another layer of paper. This would go thru the mail much easier because the flower feature is flat.
I know I could never add all those pearl dots as evenly as you, but they add so much.
Thanks for sharing--
I don't mind you doing 'less flashy' at all ;) Mind you, even your less-flashy are more flashy than most people make LOL.
Beautiful card yet again Sue. I love the words on the front.
Hope everyone is having a good day.

Good Wednesday afternoon. Another lovely card. The California collection A & B are so useful I tend to use either one on most cards now. I have lots of stamps that I stamp and then use the die to frame the image. Kind regards Sandra Kent.
Another beautiful card,I don't mind less fussy, just love how you place every thing. A craft store here is now carring your dies, will have to see which one I would like to get for they are all lovely.

Beautiful card. I would love to own it. Myra from florida
Really really pretty card - love those flowers! Hope I win so I can see up close how beautifully you have coloured them. Thanks Susan x
Afternoon Sue,
Another stunning card today and one I especially like since I bought the daisy stamp a couple of months ago but haven't used it yet but after seeing this card I really must give it a try. The embossing folder looks great but I will have to buy it as I am still using your previous collection. This is a card most people would love to display on their windowsill (facing outwards for everyone to see. Hugs Pauline A xx
beautiful work Sue - I love the embossing folder you used - amazing and the flowers are so pretty. Hugs Rachel xx
Hi Sue, how are you today? This card is absolutely stunning & the verse is SO lovely! I wish I could achieve something like that! Hope to be able to meet you, one day! Love, Mary Blight
Hi Sue,
Love the "different" card, it is just as stunning. Thank you.
SueC - what a lovely day for you. A new puppy is special.
Steph - Sounds sooo painful. Hope improves soon.
Good luck everybody for Saturday.
Much love,

Hi Sue,
What do you mean 'not flashy' it's stunning. So often less is actually more and I love the look of this card - anymore 'flash' may well have ruined it in my humble opinion. Love it.
