Hi bloggers! Today's video card is another one of my favourite techniques called extreme distressing. I just love how this technique can be used to give a card a real shabby chic feel and it definitely doesn't have to feel grungy even though it is definitely distressed!

Such a lovely card, I even like the distressing but mine never turns out like that.
Sue I thoroughly enjoyed your shows, didn't catch all of them due to work, but what I did was well worth it. Now can't wait for my dies.
Well done lucky winners of cards and bags, they were lovely.
Hugs to all, have a good day
Gorgeous card Sue and a technique I want to get to grips with. Thank you so much for sharing.x
Good morning Sue,
What a beautiful card I'm not a lover of distressed cards but this one I really like. I thoroughly enjoyed the shows even the ones I had to record & watch last night, I can't wait for my dies to arrive. Yvonne xx
Lovely card,extreme distressing always looks so good when you do it where as when I do it it just looks a mess!
Morning Sue, a gorgeous card love this look but as Pam said yours always looks better. Still to catch the end of your last show but they were all great. Congrats to all the lucky winners of the bags don't know who they are yet but will check when I get back in.

Morning Sue.
Thank you so much, all the shows were great just have two to catch up on. Today's video and card is lovely. I just cannot do distressing it always looks scruffy and dirty lol. Have a good rest now and take care Thank you Kitty.

Hi Sue
Lovely card. I really like distressed cards. Congratulations on your fab shows and thank you for sharing all your beautiful samples with us.
Have a great day everyone.
Hugs.
GM Sue. Fab card love the extreme distress edging. Must try that. Great shows yday with fab demos and samples. I did send in emails and got read out in the 7pm show and I recognised lots of WIlsonette names doing likewise and winning your masterpieces and lovely Izzy bags.
Wondered if I could ask if you would post a card I spied using the pierced rectangles. It was a shaped card, lilac in colour with a double row of pearls round the edge. Don't know if this was one of your samples or Johns, Julias or Debbies maybe? There were so many lovely cards. You have inspired me. Thanks for all your hard work. Appreciated.
This is not too grungy, definately "Chic"!!!!!!

Good morning Sue
Only you can make grunge look pretty lol. I love today's card and your distressing turns out better then mine. I start out with the right size mat but by the time I finish its too small even for a sentiment. I love the colours you've used they are beautiful. The video breaks in down into nice easy steps for us thank you for that. I really enjoyed your shows it flew by too quickly. John did a good job too he makes some beautiful cards.

Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes. Thank you Sue for all the hard work you put into your remarkable day yesterday and so soon after being struck down by that evil virus. I watched the majority of your sjow's amd also recorded them so I can drink in your inspiration when I run dry (im like the Saraha at the moment) !! So yet again Sue to the rescue. Your samples of the dies yesterday were just beautiful and as I said yesterday, Deborahs cards were just stunning.
Thank you for today's video, its so beautiful. Unfortunatly, I look more distressed than this beautiful card lol your distressed technique is perfect, you never fail to amaze me of your wonderful never ending talant and inspiration.
Its so nice to see 'our Sam' back seeming her old self again. Now you can look forward to May.
I presume you will be heading towards Fl to have some relaxation and mom time very soon dear friend.
Sending love n hugs to all our unwell friends today especially dear Theresa (TOB).
Have a good day everyone.

Hi Sue
super shows yesterday from John and yourself and I loved all the card examples from everyone who made them. Today's card is just gorgeous! x
Hi Sue. Gorgeous card - love your distressed edges. Fabulous shows that I've watched - recorded them all and still catching up! Have a lovely day. Hugs to all xxx
I think the double layering of the distressed sheets is the key to the chic look. Well worth a try!
Super card I love this distressing Will have to watch video later but hopefully it'll help me to not make it look messy! I've still got to catch up on some of the shows but what ai did see was amazing What a talent! John' a bit good too!
Hi Sue. Another one to watch later, still catching up on yesterday's shows. I had already bought your Santorini dies. I had to as my son had a sunset wedding at a vinyard there and it was beautiful. SueL x
Hi Sue, Love the card and I just loved your shows, Need some more dies Love Jean Z xx
I love the distressed look so this really appeals to me.
After watching your tut I will be going down the more 'extreme' route in future - so love this look :)
Great shows, Sue. I still have one to catch up on, a treat for later
Hugs to all

Hi Sue,
You do the Victorian shabby so well, just enough distressing to set off the focal elements without going overboard...
Loved the shows yesterday, yours and John's..and was so impressed with Debbie's cards, they were absolutely gorgeous, no wonder you "head-hunted" her!...lol
Izzy
Morning Sue,
Lovely card, mine would never look like this so I never attempt distressing.
Still got some of your shows to watch, the ones I have seen were great. gorgeous sample cards.
Have a rest today you must be shattered.

Have a brilliant holiday in Florida and Birthday celebrations with your Mum! Love Junex (Cumbria)
Good Morning Sue, saw this card on one of your shows and thought "ooh that's nice". Can't wait for my dies to arrive and I'm sure there was some card this colour in one of the packs I ordered, so lovely.
Recorded all your shows and I'll be watching again. Thanks so much for your heart to share, it really makes a huge difference and has deffinitely taken my crafting up a level.
Have a rest day today and enjoy the sunshine, blessings - Deb C xx

Hi Sue
Such a beautiful card and I thought it was blue when I looked at the photos and then discovered it was lilac after I'd watched the video, strange how the camera lies sometimes! Managed to watch one show yesterday, wow such fantastic samples, so pretty. Thanks for all the inspiration. x
Hi Sue - what great shows yesterday and I'm so pleased I recorded them too. Still got a couple to watch which I'm looking forward to. Your card today is superb - I don't do distressing as it always turns out too distressed and untidy but yours always look so elegant. I must give it another try after watching your video. Have a well-deserved rest and lovely time with your mum. Best wishes
YvonneMayxx
Morning Sue, not so hot on the distressing, mine would look a total mess, love the colours and the rest of the card.. Watched some of your shows they were fantastic, the card samples were out of this world, Debbies especially.
Will catch up on the rest of your shows later, off to watch the video, take care everyone, Jess x
Hi Sue
A lovely card ,i do like the distressed look.
Elaine H X
I agree with Pam (first comment). I have tried, but mine never looks like that either. I did wonder if it has something to do with the card I have.
Loved all the shows you did Sue, what with C&C and IW, I think you must have been going non stop for a while.
Distressing scares the life out of me lol but this card is just stunning!
GM Sue, I'm so glad that you posted this card today as I loved it when I saw it being displayed on your shows yesterday. I really must have a go at your 'grungy' technique as it looks so lovely with the lilac colour scheme. Must get some housework done today as I sat for most of yesterday glued to the T.V. Your demos were fabulous. Hugs xxPauline A
Stunning Card! I have only managed to watch a couple of your shows ( they were wonderful and full of great tips and ideas) but hopefully I can catch up on the others today. All the sample cards were inspirational and Izzy's bags gorgeous!
I will watch the video later.
Love and hugs to all xo
Good morning Sue this was a card I spotted being shown through the day and had admired it. You must be worn out after such a marathon of shows but having had my email read out and then to be picked out of the cup, I'm so chuffed to say the least so thank you and I look forward to receiving the card. It doesn't seem possible another year has gone round and you are off to celebrate your mum's birthday again. Do wish her a happy day from me. Love from Jackie xx
Morning Sue, just wanted to congratulate you on yesterdays shows. Very enjoyable and wonderful demo's. A very pretty card today. Kind regards Joanne K x
Morning Sue, A lovely fresh-looking card, gorgeous colours. When I saw the title I was expecting distressing inky techniques, instead you have shown us 'shabby chic' distressing, lovely.
Lots of love from Patricia xx
A beautiful stunning card. Hazel x
Fab card Sue I loved all the shows yesterday and you taught me so much. many thanks, enjoy Florida. Crafty Regards Julie Kay xxx
Good morning Sue and everyone
Love some parts of this card but unfortunately distressing is not for me.
Really enjoyed the shows you were as always wonderful.
Hugs

Gorgeous card Sue but I don't know how you manage to get such a lovely distressed edge. Mine look as though a mouse has been gnawing at it! I finally finished watching the shows that I recorded and my hubby was laughing at all the sharp intakes of breath and the "wows". Your dies are just fabulous and so much more versatile than a lot of other makes. Now I need to go and write my list...... Pat x
Hi sue been trying to blog for ages don't know what theatres is. I want to thank you for yesterday I loved it and john of course days like. That make you heart sing the card is stunning to day sue love it thanks again love June horrocks xxxx
Sorry sue I meant what the matter is xxxx
Hi Sue, a beautiful card. I love the colours. Your distessed look looks lovely but it's not something I would try. Thanks for the video and I really enjoyed your shows yesterday.
Hello Sue and all
Lovely card. I love the dies you have used and such a pretty colour. I'm not normally a fan of distressing but you may be changing my mind. Thanks for sharing.
I had a lovely day yesterday watching all the shows. Congratulations to all the lucky winners,I had my fingers crossed hoping to be so lucky. Between Julia and yourself your costing me a fortune, lol. I hope your having a relaxing day today.
Best wishes.
Hi Sue.
I love the card, especially the colours. Will watch your video later on today.

Hi Sue
Yet another wonderful card and you tube video today, thank you so much. I like the distressed edges, must be brave and have a go. I've saved some ironing for today so I can watch the shows I recorded yesterday. Pathetic ones I have seen so far I really enjoyed and it was lovely to hear familiar names read out and winning cards (Steph and Maureen how big were your smiles!). I hope you are having a relaxing day today and you had pizza for dinner last night to celebrate your shows. Gosh is it your mums birthday again that really has come round quickly, enjoy your time in Florida.
Love Diane G xxx
Muriel enjoy playing with your new GC xxx
Morning Sue, great video and beautiful card, like some of the others my distressing does not look anything like yours, but after watching the video will have another try.

I love your card and the colours too. I have not tried this technique but will do now for sure. I have to wait until we travel into town as I live in the country and do not have unlimited internet…so off to the library. Thank you for sharing your amazing talent with us.

This is absolutely stunning. The video is fabulous. I never thought of going round with the scissors after tearing. I was curling the card but it still didn't have the look I wanted. Will try it your way for sure.

Love this card. The colours go really well together, and having more the just one layer that is distressed really does work.

Hello Sue and everyone
Another beautiful card, even with the distressed edges which I normally don't like.
I have watched a few shows from yesterday, but still have a lot to watch.
I did watch the last show at 7pm though as my hubby decided to cut the grass. I went running outside excitedly when my name was read on on air because I had emailed in. About ten minutes later I had to do it again even more excitedly because my name was drawn to win an Izzy bag.
Thank you so much to Izzy for donating her lovely bags to be offered in the draw. I wonder which one I'll get?...
In the shows I have watched so far, Sue was her usual brilliant self and I thought John did especially well too, sharing lots of really useful hints and tips. The samples shown were just beautiful. I had seen Debbie Stevens work on line and agree she is really talented and produces such elegant cards. So well done all round I think.
Have a lovely and well deserved trip to the states Sue, enjoy the time with your Mom and I hope you both enjoy her birthday.
Love Helen xxx
Hi Sue
I'm up near Buxton away from from crafty bits so this great card will have to wait to have my twist done. Just love these colours together, so fresh and bright without being over powering.

Great shows on pick of the day! The demos were out of this world. I did send in a photo and it was on air. Love your great inspirations. I have the dies for this gorgeous card so I will replica it. Thank you for all you inspirations. Looking forward to the new dies :-) take care, Ivy L xx
Hi Sue,

Hello Sue, and all the ladies.
I love your distressed card and it was shown to perfection during your show yesterday.
Your shows were wonderful and the samples were fantastic.
Enjoy your holiday and the celebrations for your mam's 92nd birthday, a marvellous achievement.
I can never forget your birthday, it's the same day as my late mother in June.
Have a rest now and enjoy the break.

Hi Sue,
I absolutely love this card, it is stunning. I cannot wait to give it a go when my dies arrive.
I am off work sick today so am sitting watching the shows I taped yesterday and also browsing through your video tutorials.
Maggie in Solihull
So very pretty. I love this technique and have used it on cards from previous cards and videos you have shown. The lacy look to the end results is one of my favorites. Gorgeous!
Hi Sue,
What a gorgeous card - I LOVE that distressing, but like Pam's - mine never turns out like that (in fact, I usually discard my efforts!)
Colours and dies exquisite, and then it's got the Sue Wilson touch - it's card heaven.
Hugs, Rose
Lovely colours.
A lovely card, Sue, but not sure about distressing on an otherwise pristine card - but do like it on a totally grungy look. However, very pretty and LOTS of layers!! Thanks for the very instructive video.
Loved all the samples on the shows and appreciate everyone's hard work with these - you are 'spreading the load' now after years of doing it all yourself!
Lucky people who won cards and Izzy bags - well done.
'P' in Wales
Hello Sue, a gorgeous card, love the distressing, so effective. Great video as always, and will be catching up with the recorded shows. Bx
Hello Sue, the card is beautiful though i still havn't tried shabby chic yet, its one of those cards i keep promising myself i will do, but never get around to doing it, Sue the shows i have seen up to now are brilliant and so many samples they are all wonderful the team worked very hard on them and izzy's bags were brilliant. Congratulations on such successful shows and so many Blog letters and card winners it was great everytime they managed to read out familiar names. Its now RandR time for you so enjoy your mums birthday and wish her a wonderful day from all your blog friends.
Its lovely to see you back Sam, now where is Nora crafty hugs Johanna
This is lovely, I really do like those colours together.
Shabby Chic gone "Uptown"! You use techniques that make your cards so elegant. I think I will try this card today. You have inspired me to try the distressing technique. Hope mine comes out somewhat as lovely as yours. Thanks for the video.
Hi Sue
Lovely.
Best Wishes

Hi Sue,
Well...I'm in the mood for being extremely distressed today so I can't wait to have a look at the video :). The card is delightful so I'm hoping that after watching you make it, I may be able to get something to look similar lol. As always, thanks so much for sharing with us. x
Yet another beautiful card and love the distressed technique. Am catching up on all the shows from yesterday - unfortunately had to work - but what I've seen fab shows. Tried to get in on the act to win one of Izzys beautiful bags, but wasn't as lucky as the winners - so guess I'll have to do it the hard way and dig out the instructions. The demos on the shows were brilliant and now have the hubby complaining that the memory on the sky box is too full of craft shows!!! Shame!!!! Anyway all the cards, dies, and other bits are great and have now been able to finish off some of my collections. Can't wait to see what the future holds for the next range!!! Soon I hope - though doubt the bank balance will be too happy. I'm still staggered as to where all your inspiration comes from but as usual thanks for sharing.
love the card went mad yesterday bought lots ,Laura O
Your extreme distress is just stunning, you made an elegant and very beautiful shabby chic card! Thanks for the video!
Love today's card. Whether I will be able to do the distressed look remains to be seen.
Hi Sue
Love the dies and the colours you have used on this card. I shall be looking at the video later.
Morning sue love this card I have never tried distressing but am going to give it a go xxx love yvonnw b xx
Hi Sue, I don't 'do' distress but this is a pretty card and I love the dies you have used. The video is very informative so I may try something similar but perhaps using lace instead of the distressed card.
I still have a couple of yesterday's shows to catch up on tonight but those that I have seen so far I have thoroughly enjoyed.
Frances
Gorgeous Card Sue!
I love the dies you've used and the colour theme is lovely.

Hi Sue. Congratulations to you and John on the fantastic shows yesterday. You must have been exhausted! Today's card is lovely although I don't do shabby chic myself. Will watch the video with interest though. Would love to see a video in the future on how to make Izzys handbags, they are a work of art. xx
Gorgoeus card and I know I've said it before but you still manage to make your 'distressing' look sooo pretty xx GailT xx

Hello Sue,
Not to sure about the extreme distressing! But this card would still look fantastic if distressing isn't your cup of tea!
It really is stunning and makes a real statement with or without distressing. Thank you for all your work and endless inspiration.
Hope you have rested today after yesterdays marathon.
Sending love and hugs, Brenda xxx
Love the effect of the extreme distress technique, such a pretty card. Really must have a go at this myself.x

Hi Sue. WOW !! Another fab video and amazing card !! I really wanted to buy both the Greek and Caribean Collections yesterday but unfortunately my budget could not stretch that far !! I am very lucky that I managed to buy the Caribbean Collection on the flexipay, so the Greek Collection has gone on to my huge wish list instead !! I love the Santorini Dies. ( I hope I have the right name. ) Your Distressing Technique is brilliant Sue. Your card looks great. I will try this out myself as it looks much better than the results I get !! Such a lovely colour combo. I love your little Heart Corners too Sue. I think they look very pretty and delicate. More for my wish list !! Thank you for sharing another amazing card with us today. Take care. Sending you lots of love from Tres x x x
Sending lots of love to all Wilsonettes today love from Tres x x x

I think this card is so beautiful, and I have to say that the distressed look is not as easy as it looks but you make it look doable.
your show were amazing and you must be exhausted.
Big Hugs to all :-)

Hi Sue,
I love the ruffled edges. It is such a pretty look.
Thank you for the great demo.

Hi, Sue and fellow Wilsonettes.
Congratulations to all those that managed to get their emails aired and to the lucky winners yesterday.
It was difficult trying to watch any of the live shows over the web, as the streaming kept stopping, so I gave up in the end !!! I'm now trying to watch the shows retrospectively instead.
Today's card is absolutely lovely. I do like this style of card. I will catch up with the video tomorrow.
Best Wishes and hugs to you all,

Hello Sue
Thank you so much for the video on how you get your lovely distressed layers for your card! They do look like ruffled edges! The whole card is so beautiful. Your dies are so great and love how they are interchangeable with each other.
Thanks again, Karen
Gorgeous card.
love these colours
Hi Sue, I go 'hot and cold' with distressing, I'm not keen when cards are heavily distressed, but this looks really pretty. I will catch the video later. I caught one of the shows with your lovely dies the other day and I'd like to say that it was really good to see that the offers were reasonably priced. Too often they have huge die bundles that I never understand how people can afford! Hugs Carole Z X

FAB Distressing tutorial and what a great look too! I always have trouble with the technique - but you make it look so easy and lovely. Always look forward to your videos and the SHOWS that gives us all the feeling that we can do this too!! :) THANK YOU!
