Hello my crafty friends! I had planned on demonstrating this card back in Feb. but the ivy sold out before I was able to get to it. It is a very easy card to do but it does have a trick to making the frame for it. I started by cutting the inside frame out of milk card using the die from the
Herald Square set and placing it in the centre of a piece of
milk card that was about an inch larger all the way around. The die will give you the aperture for the first part of the frame. To add the black frame, use the
Union Square die, which is slightly smaller in size. I cut the black card so that it was slightly larger than my first frame so I have an inside lip of black card and a small outside lip as well. I glued them together and added mounting foam to the back of it. I stamped my sentiment on milk card, then e,bossed it with the
Wild Roses embossing folder. I used some
Enchanted Gold gilding wax on it to highlight the design. Next I cut a bunch of the
Trailing ivy die and attached them so they look like they are growing out of the frame around the sentiment. I completed the card with a milk mat that was pierced, then a thin black mat and a final milk mat. The finished dimensions are 7 1/2" x 7 1/2" in size. All for now, Sue x

GM Sue. Love the ivy die. This card would be so good for so many ocassions. Its a must try!
Beautiful card as always Sue and a great start to a very dull day.
Good morning Sue,
A beautiful card to start the week, I could see this as a sympathy card as well. Yvonne xx
Good morning Sue. Another masterpiece. That frame is a brilliant idea, the black edge just makes it. A beautiful card. Hazel x
Think the card has a bit of a Christmas feel to it also (if I dare say that C word) must just be the colours, and of course it's super lovely! x
(perhaps it was more white or glittery)
To My Very Dear Friend Sue,

Take care everyone on this horrible rainy day AGAIN.

Really pretty card, Sue
Hi Sue. The Ivy die is fabulous, it goes with everything as well as being wonderful on its own. Love the simplicity of colour in this card and thanks for the tip on the framing. Sue xxx
Hi Sue and all that visit today. Hope you had a lovely Mother's Day with mom yesterday, I bet you really spoil her and why not : )
WHAT was that you said CLAi01 ? The C word already !!! 100 lines please of the following - I will spend all day crafting only using the ivy die.
Although its a simple card you have shown us this cold dull Monday morning, it has elegance to it. I love the way you have taken the ivy over towards the frame, it just goes to show that even using just 2 sets of dies, you can make a stunning card for those that dont like too many flower's bows and fuss in a card. The ivy die has so many uses. Ive just done a card for a chap who works on dis-used railway bridges and tunnels and I aged my ivy with ink and made it look like it was growing over a brick bridge and tunnel ! Its crazy what some people ask for !!! Lol.
With that I will wish you a warm happy day Sue and to all that pop in today, it would be lovely if you joined us tomorrow and said a quick Hi.
To our poorly friends I hope you are feeling a little better soon. Miss you TOB xx
Love to all.
Lancashire Steph xxx

Morning Sue, lovely card, do love the Ivy Die which is in my collection. Love Jean xxx
Good morning Sue
I love the way you've been able to create a frame using different sets of dies (clever bit of designing there). In fact I love how ALL your dies work together it gives us such versatility. The ivy die is so useful and a 'must have' die. Today's card is gorgeous and I like the sound of your card Steph.
Hugs x

Stunning card Sue xx hazel
Hi Sue,
This is simply stunning and beautiful. I always like white on white. The trailing ivy is such a useful die and I love how the ivy looks as though it is growing out of the frame. I do think it could be used for many occasions and agree with others that it would make a lovely sympathy card ( I think they must be on my mind at the moment) . Love and hugs to all on this miserable day, Alison xxx
I really do love this card Sue. I'm a fan of white on white, but with texture for interest and this ticks all the boxes! Thanks for sharing x
Good morning Sue, a "little work of art" I just love the effect you have created. The black round the edge of the frame makes very thing POP!!
Have a great day
Hugs

Hi Sue,
Good card this morning!
Lorna D
Morning Sue
I love white/white and always will but I'm now quite sure of your format today. Perhaps it's because I'm not used to seeing just leaves and nothing with them.
Don't get me wrong I love your Ivy die and it's so so useful around the end of the year or even as a finishing touch with flowers/bows etc.
Sorry Sue I'll keep looking at it and pehaps it will grow on me.
Some blue sky at the moment but it's still quite chilly. Fingers crossed it will warm up later.
Hope you all had a really good week-end and are now ready for the week. To all in pain and suffering today I hope your day gets better. To everyone please take care and stay safe. See you tomorrow.

Good morning Sue and everyone

I would never have thought of doing the sentiment like that. You're so good at new ideas Sue! Lovely card, yet again.
Love this card, Sue, two of my favourite things - ivy and frames, plus the mono look too. Delightful!
Steph - what a great card and definitely a one-off!! Thanks, given me an idea for a steam railway pal.

Hi Sue, another lovely card and you have show us another way of how to use the ivy die. I just love that die. I haven't got the New York dies but looks like they are going on my ever growing list.
I used the new Classic fold over flower die for the first time last night using foundation card and it has turned out lovely. Actually I made 3 in the end and even 'sugared' them with diamond sprinkles. They look good even if I do say so myself.
Thanks again for all your inspiration
Have a great time in FL

Hello Sue and all
Lovely card. Monochrome is always a winner, I fell in love with the Ivy die when you did a card similar to this, the Ivy was trailing from a striplet aperture. I was fortunate to get the die. Thank you for sharing.

Hi Sue, a beautiful card.
A very unusual card Sue, so different to anything I've seen before! But then, it was made by Sue Wilson! :) Thank you for all the inspiration you give us, I for one am so grateful.

Good Morning Sue,
I am still flying high after receiving a message from you yesterday(thanks for the birthday wishes!), I think I might frame it!:-)
Another stunning card for today, in the past I would use bold colours as standard, but your use of elegant creams has totally converted me to the simple elegance of an understated card. I love glitter and gilding flakes as much as the next man , but this gem gets my vote.
The Spanish and the New York collections are the only sets missing from my collection and it is clear that I will have to remedy this pronto.
Hope Florida 's weather is kinder than Stirlingshires today.

Hi Sue, stunning use of the Ivy die (which I am lucky enough to have and use lots) and I love the way you have it coming out of the frame - almost organic. I'm trying to visualise it in a coffee/cream or chocolate/milk combo. I will try and have a play later but this is definitely one for my inspiration folder.
Frances
Good morning Sue and fellow Wilsonettes,
This is gorgeous Sue with the trailing ivy doing just that, trailing all over the card and frame. Your ivy die was a must as it is so realistic in making the ivy and can be put in all sorts of directions because of the style in which you made it and designed it. There is just enough black in the card to pop the details on it. Thank you Sue for just a beautiful WOW that would look perfect for man or woman and for a number of occasions.
Well it is not so nice looking up here at my Ochil hills as the dark grey of the sky is stretching across them from the west to the east getting slowly lighter as it makes it's way across them. It was so nice Saturday but we're back to the rain which will wash the hills faces and the grass shine through as a rich green again. I have just finished making a tiny pompom tammie for baby Harry coming out of the hospital and i just hope that the pompom is not bigger than his head with the size of it. It's quite funny as Kirsten has always thought big pompom's silly but she wants it as big as i can make it. I have showed her that if it is bigger than the hat then it just looks silly but i have made it the diameter of the hat so that it is still big but at least kept within the boundaries of his head, poor wee mite. Kirsten has discovered after getting all the stuff from my house that she has may be went a bit OTT in the shops with clothes for him. I hope he comes out with more than one body as he is going to need it to wear all the clothes that teeny has bought for him that she thinks is "cute". The only thing worse would be if he had been a girl, the wardrobe and all the drawers would have been filled as she thinks she has been restrained. Some how Kirstens' restrained and ours is a whole lot different. Rory is starting to ask when the "kid" will be big enough so that he can play with him on the xbox. I told him that could take a wee while to get that far but he can play with him making up his imaginary places and vehicles out of boxes as long as he can sit up first.
Well i will go and leave you all but before i go i hope that all of the winners of the comment game enjoy their prize when it arrives.
Love and crafty hugs
Norah (glenochil)
What a stunner, Sue! Love yesterday's card as well, so busy yesterday I had no time to even switch my PC on. Must try these two because I have everything on the needs lists, as well as loving them so much! Love to all, Judy M
Hi Sue,
I love your double aperture frame, thank you for explaining how you achieved it.
Unusually and Sorry to say though this card doesn't really appeal to me. I can see how it could be quite good as a sympathy card though.

Hi Sue,
Hmm - I'm not sure about this one for me! I love the Ivy die and I love the composition of the card but it's just too white for me! I think it would be nice for Christmas with some colour added - even subtly . Sorry !

Hi Sue,

Hi Sue,
I love your white cards and the added black layers give it a bit of a punch.

great card love the ivy ,Laura O
So very pretty on this blessed morning. Love the black and white, it's so elegant.
On Sat. we were finishing up our monthly scrapbooking crop at the church when the severe weather rolled in. We left early but several of our group had to hide out in the bathroom for several hours as there was tornado warnings. This time the storms passed without damage. The next day on Mother's Day, late in the day the storms returned with a vengeance. Thankfully we were spared, but just north of us in the next little community, a tornado touched down and several people died, and there were many injuries. It is such a reminder to be thankful to God for every minute.
God bless.
Beautiful card Sue i also love the milk/black combo, its really lovely. hugs to all Johanna
Wow. I love this one. I use the ivy die quite a lot

Clean, simple, stunning. Ivy is my favourite die, I use it on loads of things- not just cards!
Just saw Txcowgirl's post, such an awful thing to happen. She's right too, there's a lot to be thankful for and you have to make the most of life. I hope the communities affected are able to recover as soon as possible.
Sandra, I hope you feel better soon, get well hugs x Alison (Alimecca) Still thinking of you, extra special hugs for as long as you need them x Norah, sure Harrys wee hat will look lovely, however large the pom pom is!!!

Hi Sue,
Bit late coming on here tonight.
Beautiful card, and it could be used for so many different occasions. I have a sympathy card to do, so I am going to do this card, with one little added butterfly.
Thanks for the idea and sharing.
Goodnight.... everyone...

Hi Sue,
Have got this die and I really love it. Sooooo useful. Gorgeous card too.
Much love,

Simply Beautiful; and with rhythm too.
Hi, Sue, and Wilsonettes, this card isn't for me. I do like the idea of the Ivy trailing around a frame but I'm not keen on the black and white colour palette.
Take care Wheely Bad and all who are unwell, extra hugs to you all (((( ))))
Best Wishes and hugs,

Very striking but delicate effect on this card Sue. Well done!
Love the dimension on this beautiful card!
Love what you've done with the ivy die. I'm lucky enough to have this one.
Take care everyone.
Love this card (and I got the ivy dies).
This is a lovely card. I enjoy the ivy die and the black matting creates such a lovely edging. Well done as usual. I pinned of course. https://www.pinterest.com/pin/415386765608082055/

Love & Hugs Lynda Brock xx
Beautiful Card Sue!
I love the tone on tone using the milk card with the slight addition of black. The Ivy die is lovely, it's one I haven't got round to adding to my collection yet but is on my need/want/must have list.
Happy Crafting. :) X X
