Hi crafters! Welcome to the first video in the new series! This video will show you how to achieve different looks in your backgrounds as well as giving you a few ideas how to use some of the dies in the newest release! I hope you have time to enjoy it, as it isn't too long either, an added extra bonus! The finished size is 7 1/2" x 7 3/4" in size.
Don't forget to check the blog post below this one to see if your name was drawn for one of the dies that are being given away as we still have some that haven't been claimed yet!! All for now, Sue x

Morning Sue, Pam and all Wilsonettes, will watch the video once hubby wakes up (I am very hard of hearing so have to have the volume up loud), such a beautiful card to look at and am looking forward to the technique. The words on this are so true, thank you and all Wilsonettes for being a friend.

Hi Sue and a big hi to Pam!
Lovely card today, makes me think of church gates, so ornate and pretty. Will look at video later.
Sue, I'm one of the sillies who hasn't claimed yet - looked at the list of winners last night and thought ooooh lots of lovely familiar names (inc fellow Welshies Heather T and Julie Laz). Had a look again this morning and there was another familiar name - mine!! Hadn't expected to see it so just didn't. Thanks Tres and all for congrats - and mine to everyone else. We are very lucky people - thanks, Sue.

Hi Sue
This card is gorgeous. A very effective technique and the colour is lovely. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful in Lilac, love the vellum over the die cut stripes and lovely little flowers! Enjoyed your video!
Hi Sue and all Wilsonettes (especially our newest friends that are now joining us) Ive already left my congrats on yesterdays post, but again, Im so thrilled for you all, so lovely to see our regular friends being recognised for their devotion to Sue and her blog.
So, I sat and made my list last night - 2 as a treat for me after Sunday's market ( Sandra it will pay off) and those Id like to join my birthday and Christmas list, so as the rep is visiting my craft shop today I shall ring in my order, the rest is up to Mr L : )
A beautiful card to start the new series of tutorials Sue, thank you. I never see the glue on vellum either, its such brilliant glue.
What a great idea to chop and mount, it doesnt give us that impression at first glance, one to try me thinks.
I hope you have a lovely day Sue with some R&R thrown in along the way.
To our fellow Wilsonettes that dont feel so good, stay warm and snuggly today, wrap up warm and rest.
To those friends having to endure treatement etc my love and friendly thoughts stand by you for comfort and support.
Thanks for all you do Sue.
Love n hugs to all.

Dear Sue What a wonderful card and congratulations to all the winners for your beautiful dies. Take Care Love Michelle S xxx
Good morning Sue
I'm still floating on cloud nine thank you so much, 'P' in Wales I had to read it a few times before it registered lol. Thanks everybody for your congratulations.
The video won't load for me today, I had an update yesterday and my iPad has been playing up ever since so will try later. I love today's card especially because you've used Vellum. Until I discovered CE glue I couldn't find any glue that didn't show through. These new flower dies are beautiful and there are so many different flowers you are going to be able to make with them.
Hugs x
Heather T
I'm intrigued! Will have to watch video later I'm loving the card
PS if some your new dies still need a new home then I have a perfect space for them!
This video was well worth the wait, especially as it showcased two of your lovely dies which I have already purchased- Union Square and Dainty oval frame. Love the way in which you have used them together. Have pinned the card which is absolutely gorgeous and will be attempting to replicate it albeit with a different border as this one is still on my wish list.
Good morning Sue,
Firstly, great to see your name first on the list Pam, hoping this means things are getting better for you!
Next congratulation to all the winners. Now for the card, it's beautiful , I will watch the video later with a coffee.

Morning Sue,
Great card, love the colour combo and great to see how the dies from different sets work so beautifully together...and you're right about vellum - it's something we all have in the crafty stash and then forget to use...
Congratulations to all the lucky winners, I'll bet they're all thrilled to bits with their prizes
Izzy
Good morning Sue and everyone
Super card but not sure about the hazy vellum effect as its hazing such a gorgeous background.
Have a great day.
Ang x
morning Sue
It was lovely to see some regular Wilsonette Sisters in the launch gifts. Congratulations to you all.
It's fantastic to have your videos back Sue.
Today's gift is just wonderful. I love your colours and I agree with your comments on vellum. It is a lovely medium to use. Your new dies look wonderful. It's always better to see you using them. I always have a problem with dimensions and how they will look but to have you demonstrating with them shows all I need to know.
Thank you Sue for your beautiful new dies; for your inspiration (which is endless) but most of all for being a fantastic crafter and for using 'crafter speak' so we all understand crafting techniques.
Sandra - have a great day with your Wilsonette Sisters today. Just hope you get some crafting done in between coffee; gossip; coffee.
Ann Crawford - try rubbing your die with a 'tumble dryer sheet'. I had problems like this when I first started using dies and it works a treat.
Norah - my male family all know that if they insist on trying to be a brewery then on their head be it. They just get left on their own and definitely no sympathy.
It's my first Knit and Natter afternoon today since landing back so I'm really looking forward to catching up on things I've missed. Will have to get well wrapped up as although the sun is just peeping out it's very cold but dry.
To all under the weather for whatever reason hope you feel better soon. To all take care and stay safe. See you tomorrow.
Janet. x
Lovely card Sue and I look forward to watching the video and learning.
Congrats to those fortunate enough to win one of your fab new dies , and Sue , thank you for your generosity.
Have a good day,
XxxxRuth
What a lovely card Sue, and no bow!!. It didn't need that with those beautiful flowers. Congratulations to all those lucky enough to have their names drawn out for the dies. Xx
Good morning Sue and my Wilsonette friends,
What a beautiful start to your new video release Sue, a beautiful card that is so different from the rest on the block, but so pretty and the vellum is just right with it adding that finishing element just to soften but you can still see all the beautiful work underneath. Very pretty colour of card used Sue and the wee dainty flowers are just so cute. Thank you Sue for a wonderful start to today.
Well done everyone on winning such beautiful dies and i know that you will all have great fun using these beauties. It is so nice to see some familiar names as winners. Enjoy ladies.
This is a short one today girls as my M.E. is playing up something rotten the now so i will wish you all a great day. Sandra have fun playing with our friends. Sending hugs to all my Angels both on blog and not at the moment. To all our missing friends you are really missed but i hope that you are growing stronger each day.
Finally thank you Sue for making so many dreams come true for some lovely people, your kindness and generosity is so very much appreciated and to see the smiles through their comments makes me so happy for them, you are a very special friend,
love and crafty hugs
Norah (Glenochil Village)
LOVE THIS CARD and VIDEO SUE! Absolutely Wonderful! It really shows your imagination and the new dies to perfection, I keep swithering about which dies to order ( I would love them all ) I think I've made up my mind and then I see another video demo and I want those ones! I love the dainty oval and the Union square and the New York borders and so on HELP!
Anyway BIG CONGRATULATIONS! To all the very lucky winners , so happy to see familiar names in there, enjoy your prizes!
Thank you Janet , I will try the drier sheet idea, good to see your name at the top Pam, and have a fun day Sandra , Pat and Sue, I can well imagine the laughing that goes on while you craft!
Love and Hugs to all xo

Beautiful card and congratulations to all those lucky winners.There will be a lot of very happy people.
When I first looked I thought you had added a number of stripes with narrow ribbon, then watched the video and you explained about the strips - then I could easily see what you had done. Lovely Card.

Hi Sue - a great video showing the very clever use of your border die and I love the look of the vellum as it adds a soft look to the card. I'm so so happy about winning one of your beautiful dies, thank you so much Sue. Your blog and videos are a daily treat.
Best wishes and a huge thank you, YvonneMayxx
Morning Sue,
Such a very beautiful card and I love the idea of the vellum to tone the background down so that you focus on the central element,
Thanks so much Sue and the videos are always great to watch and so informative.
Hugs to those who may need them and hopefully your days will get better and brighter very soon.
Love Sheila xx
Beautiful card Sue, as always!!
Morning Sue. What a way to start your new series this is a beautiful card. The technique is great with the vellum and the colours are beautiful. My name was on the list of winners and to say i am excited is an under statement so i would like to say thank you for the chance to win a set of your beautiful dies. You are a very special lady who gives a lot of time and energy to all your blog followers. Looking forward to the rest of the series.
Best Wishes.

Hi Sue, lovely to see the videos back, gorgeous card as always.
I am one of the lucky winners and it made my heart sing as I have had such an awful year with my health that it was the best tonic I could have had. Thank you Sue you give away a huge amount of dies. Congratulations to all who won. Everyone is a winner on this blog as we are so lucky to have the best crafter and designer in our Sue.
Love to all, from a horrible rainy and very cold Barry Island in S Wales. Hugs Theresa x

Caz x
Another stunner from you Sue.
GM Sue - a tad later than usual as I hit the supermarket early this morning to miss the madness! All done now - love they way you've used the vellum and those lovely flowers - I used your trailing ivy and holly spray dies yday for the first time - they cut so well they fell out the dies! The holly is so delicate - I cut it in green and used berry twinkles in blobs for the berries and left to set over night - wow! they look fab.

Hi Sue, a really pretty card showing your new dies off to perfection and, of course, it's in my favourite lilac. Another good start to the video series and I think the background looks equally as good vertically or horizontally :-)
Off now to sort out my order with JS and to see how far I can stretch the pennies.

Thank you for your videos, I love the cards you make! However I do have a question, Are you making your envelopes/boxes for this size card?
Adorable card! Thanks for the video inspiration
Hello Sue,
What a great technique and a beautiful card. The video was brilliant as always, very clear instructions and what look like a very complicated card - it all became clear and achievable. Thank you Sue.

Eileen L. said..
Very pretty and love the addition of the vellum. Very unique design, great video.
Absolutely gorgeous card Sue. I love the way you used strips and then vellum over the top. Something else I had never thought of. Purchased your entire new collections yesterday. My Christmas gift to myself.
Hi Sue
Very pretty. Not enough net to watch video, repaired but slow. I'm not happy but have to wait for it to settle. Not very good at all, blaming change in weather and trying to be active.
Congratulations to the winners, I shall be back when my health or my Internet connection allows!
Hugs,
T x
Very pretty card...I like the idea of the vellum to tone the color down a bit.
Well done Sue

O MY GOODNESS O MY GOODNESS I'm a winner of sue,s dies thank you ever so much, I had to read it twice, it didn't sink in lol I did the happy dance only with my arms and was shouting yes yes yes.
my husband said that the way I carried on for winning on sue's blog was mad lol he said I hope we don't win the loto as who knows what I'll do lol.

Hi Sue,
Great to have the videos back! This one is gorgeous. I would never have thought of putting vellum over the background to soften it! Will certainly be using that tip in the future.
Norah, hope you're feeling better tomorrow. To everyone feeling down or poorly sending you hugs and love to everyone, Alison xxx
Beautiful card Sue, great tutorial and you're right we do forget to use our vellum in different ways!
Beautiful effect on today's card, new technique for me to try. Congrats all the winners of the dies - you'll love'm. Got some of my ordered one's yesterday and already cutting away merrily
Great video Sue and a pretty card too. What a neat and simple way to 'fade out' a busy background. The flowers look lovely in this colour.
Hello Sue
This is a beautiful card the hazed effect works really well and I love the colour you have used.
Congratulations to all the winners of the dies I hope you enjoy using them.

Many thanks again

Hi Sue
Such a lovely card today in my favourite colours as well. Will watch the video later, however, I'm not to sure about the vellum as its hiding such a stunning die. Had a lovely day crafting with Sandra and Mrs B, mind you not got much done, but it's good to share ideas. It's great to get a different perspective on what you are trying to achieve. Thanks for the inspiration Sandra.
Crafty hugs to all in need of one today.
Wow, what a beautiful card. Enjoyed the video, as a newcomer your back catalogue of demonstrations are regularly being called up. Thanks.
Really pretty card and a very useful technique - thanks for sharing, Susan x
Hi Sue,
what a stunningly superb creation today.
Love this fab technique.
Thank you so much for the tutorial too.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
Lovely beautiful card! I love the colors and the lacey look. The vellum really softens the background. I am sad that I didn't win any of the prized dies, but they are on my Christmas list for Santa to bring. Enjoyed the video, I miss them when they're not on. Have a great day- you've started mine off to a good start.
Absolutely beautiful card, love the colours and the lacy delicate look to it.I have just watched the video and it doesn't seem as fiddly I first thought.
Positively fabulous xx
Beautiful card Sue but it seems almost a shame to obscure the very pretty background. Still love it though.
Hi Sue My Dear Friend,
First A Huge Congratulations To All The Very Lucky Gift Winners Our Sue Is Such A Kind And Generous Person.
Today's Card Is Awesome As Was The Fantastic Very Informative Video.
I Love The Softness Of The Vellum, And It's Quite Strange I Have Been Using Vellum To Stamp Poinsettas On And Heat Emboss In White For A Stunning White On White Christmas Card, Vellum Has Such A Fabulous Texture.
I Loved The Mauve Card With The Coconut Card, The New York Collection Like All Your New Collection Is Stunning I've Ordered Quite A Few Dies From Joanna Sheen While She Has Them At A Reduced Price As She Normally Does To Launch Your Dies, Which Is A Great Idea.
Sue Thank You For Your Daily Inspiration I Really Appreciate It.
Sue Thank You For Fabulous Video And The Fantastic Photography Shots They Show Your Card In Such Great Detail.
Sue Take Great Care
Love And Hugs

Hi Sue,
This is such a pretty card I will watch the video later as had another bad day in work. Norah sorry to hear your ME is playing up I am sending you special hugs and love just wish I could help you more as your kind thoughts have helped me a lot over the past months. Sandra, Pat and Sue hope you had a good time. Love and hugs to all.
A great video tutorial. Thank you for the super tip of using vellum to create the hazy background, I'd never have thought of it myself and it's so effective. I have a lot of vellum in my stash and find that I tend to forget to use it in my cards, until now! x
Good evening Sue and everyone
What a stunning card so very beautiful love it. I shall watch the video tomorrow as we have been Christmas shopping today and almost lost the will to live, but it is all done, so am off to bed early to recover.
Lovely to see Pam back today where she belong at number one.
Take care and have a lovely evening.

Hi Sue. Thanks for a great video showing such a pretty card in a gorgeous colour : ) I don't use vellum enough,I love the soft effect of it.
I am late commenting today as my laptop was not working earlier, our lovely daughter fixed it, thank goodness, whilst I was with Sandra and Pat. Of course we don't have a good time, no laughing or chatting or picking Sandras brain for inspiration whilst we craft. Believe most of that last sentence and you will believe anything!!! (Pat and I both pick Sandras brain as she has that flare of how to put cards together that we just don't have. Thanks Sandra, and sorry for stirring it about the Christmas tree with your girls : )And thanks for the lovely lunch Pat : )
Congrats again to the lucky winners.
Sending my daily hugs to everyone.
Take care.

Hello Sue. I love Tuesday's cards especially the use of vellum, I think I will have to dig some out!! I am not sure I would have cut the border layer myself but it looks great in both of the directions you did.
Crafty hugs, Diane xxxx
