Hi bloggers! You may have seen me do this card as a demo on my last shows, but if you didn't, here it is on today's video episode for you to enjoy. This is a great way to transform ordinary card into something that looks like metal and it is so simple to do.
The finished dimensions are 7 1/4" x 7 3/4" in size. All for now, Sue x

Morning Sue.
A very rich looking card beautiful. great video, Sue I have no luck with the gilding waxes. Great video, Thank you so much, take care Kitty.
What a great card today, Sue, love the Kefalonia frame and the gilded ivy - looks like old wrought iron. Altogether fabuloso!! Always enjoy your videos and what a nice long one today with loads of inspiration - heaven knows how long it takes to prep and film so an even longer t-h-a-n-k-y-o-u than usual!

Hi Sue. Beautiful card and a fabulous video, you explain things so clearly. Like the idea of using mica flakes and acetate, hopefully will get to try this technique next week. Sue xxx
Really like the look of this, but no time to 'video' just now. Hope to watch later today.
Good morning Sue. WOW! What a wonderful design, very ornate and really eye-catching, love all the sparkle!x
Great card-the gilded diecuts give the card a totally different look.

Hi Su
Lovely card and the "gilding" looks very realistic
Pat x
What a lovely card, Sue. Will have to watch the video later.
Anne (Northampton)
Morning Sue. WOW WOW WOW I love everything about this card. I watched the video last week and had a go at making this card. It's stunning when it's finished. The acetate and luna flakes work beautifully together and then to make the dazzler with the luna flake's as well just finishe's the card off and tie's it all together. Could be used for many occasion's and a very good male card. I just wish i had half of your imagination and a little bit of your creativeness. A BIG thank you for your video with all your great hint's and tip's.
Have a great week everyone and take care.
Best Wishes.

Good morning Sue today's card is gorgeous. I love what you have done with the ivy. I use my ivy dies so much they are really useful. Have a great day today. Hugs Jackie
Morning Sue, a beautiful card very opulent.
Nancyd xx
Good Morning Sue,
I remember seeing this on create and craft, and taped the show. I had a go at my own version as I didn't have the colours of the flakes, it's amazing just how they come out using the double sided tape on acetate, I don't know how you can be so tidy with the flakes I always get mine everywhere lol.
I've spent a lot of time recently looking at your old video tutorials (whiles away the hours while I'm off work with a bad back thanks goodness for the iPad I can just rewind the videos and keep trying until I get my card looking slightly decent.) thanks Sue for all your ideas.
Can't wait to see what is for tomorrow
Maggie in Solihull
Hi Sue,
A beautifully opulent card. I don't have the ivy dies...yet! Think they need to be on my wishlist. Going to watch the video.

What a beautiful shimmery card....absolutely love the background. ... I've had these mica flakes for years but never used them....that's going to change. ...!
Your a wiz Sue...Luv it....
Rach :)
Glorious card and wonderful Video! I did see this one on your show but loved having time to watch it again, the first time I bought the Gilding Wax I couldn't use it as it was so hard( I bought it at a show and it must have dried out) but, because I liked it so much I bought it again and it's great!
Love and hugs to all xo
Hello Sue, and all the ladies.
This is fantastic, I love it.
Have a good day everyone.

Morning Sue
What a beautiful way to start the day coffee with Sue Wilson in her wonderful craft room and a fantastic piece of art to boot.
Although today's gift is a little on the dark side for me I fully appreciate the format and techniques for today.
I love the idea of aging the die cuts and must have a go at this.
Sue I do have a question though about gilding wax. I have a few jars of the wax and because I haven't used them they seem to have hardened although the tops are on tight. How do I revive them? Anyone any ideas please.
Pam may I ask How Robbie is doing. It seems an age since we had a last update. I hope you don't mind me asking.
Well the weather looks as though it really cannot make its mind up this morning. At the moment we have a little sun, rain, wind and very black clouds.
To all in pain and suffering I hope your day gets better. To everyone please take care and stay safe. See you tomorrow.
Janet x
Hi Sue. Stunning card today - remember your demo on C&C was fantastic. Recently bought some gilding wax and have been playing with it, but need a bit more practice ;-) Have a great day. Hugs to all xxx

Hi Sue,
This does really look like metal! I can remember you doing this on C and C. For my tastes though, I think it is a bit " heavy". I would prefer it in white on white or with a bit of green or gold. I do love the layout though and it is one that I would try to replicate.
Thank you to Frances and Wheely for your kind thoughts yesterday.
I hope everyone has as good a day as possible and I send love and hugs to all, Alison xx
Lovely card Sue, will watch the video after I have done the "chores" xx
Stunning card Sue, always something a little different, thanks Sue
Bought the gilding wax because of this demo. Going to try them out This wweekend. X

Hi Sue,
Such a beautiful card so ornate.
Lorna D
Morning Sue, Woweeeeee !! this video has taught me a lot. This is a fabulous card, the mica flakes are stunning on the acetate, and used the other way is a great idea, no rubbing off. I must say I loved how you transformed the ivy with the gilding wax and love how you made the dazzler with the mica flakes, stunning.
Lots of love from Patricia xx
Morning Sue, another really lovely card, have not used the mica flakes but they look really different and using them with acetate just adds another dimension. Great video, everything so clearly explained. Thank you
Wendyx
Good Morning Sue
The Ivy looks good in metal so masculine!
All my waxes are solid without being used too!
Will watch Video later!
Take care
Love Marg
Morning Sue, a bit dark for me but I appreciate the technique, will watch video later.
Janet if you put a few drops of blending solution into your wax it helps to soften it.
Take care everyone, Jess x
Gorgeous card Sue. I haven't got the dazzlers at the moment but I can see why i should have !! Thank you.Xx
Good morning Sue - spectacular card today - love it!

Hi Sue
What a stunning card today, I love all your gilding, so pretty. I never use Cosmic Shimmer gilding wax any more as the ones I bought dried up within a month of buying them, I find Treasure Gold gilding wax is brilliant, although more expensive it doesn't dry out at all and will last for years. x
Love the card sue I will watch later with a coffee thank you so much love always June horrocks xxxxx
Hello Sue, todays video is brilliant, so much detail, showing how to get this gorgeous card, thank you for always bringing us so many ideas. Have a lovely day. Bx

Hi Sue, a stunning card. Love the gilding wax.
Hi Sue, the card is so pretty and elegant.
Morning Sue, Black and gold are so rich and this card looks gorgeous. I like the acetate with the mica flakes and must have a go at that. This would be perfect for a male recipient especially if he is a gardener. Saw you demo this but now I have it to watch numerous times with your video. Thanks for sharing. You are a real diamond. Hugs xx Pauline A

Hi Sue, loved the video, and how beautiful the gilding wax looks on black card. X Ros
Good morning Sue,
It is not often that I am speechless, but this one has taken my breath away. I am not a great fan of gold antique look but there is just something about this card that has made me change my mind. I love it. I love the bezel as well, must get some of these, thank you for showing how you filled it, it looks stunning.
Val W, great to hear that commenting here daily is giving you such pleasure. Lovely to have another

Good Morning Sue,
What a bold statement this card makes, it is very much to my taste. The rich, sumptuous tones are perfect for male orientated cards and I will definitely be trying to recreate this after enjoying the video demonstration.
I just love your demos even if I do have severe craft room envy:-)
I am in the middle of a cheeky little number for my brothers birthday-it is blush pink and coconut white so it's going to challenge his machismo somewhat but I am sure I can convert him!
Crafty hugs,
Laine1972
Lovely! I'll watch the video later to see how you do it, it really *does* look like metal :)
You really amaze me at your talent another beautiful design, love the gilding on the leaves. hugs Shirleyxxx
This looks like a fabulous technique, now for me to master it, I will have to watch it later.

This is truly opulent and another one with your magic touch. It is exquisite. Running out of superlatives here.............
Thank you Sue, for all the inspiration you give us every day.

A beautiful card. Hazel x
This is one of the most amazing cards you have done Sue. Just exquisite!
Hi Sue, I remember this card from C&C and have indeed tried it. The results are beautiful. Thank you for the video, it is great yo have that library of ideas and techniques to refer back to.
Love Rosemarie xx
Hi Sue,
Love the card. Will have a play this afternoon, will brighten up a miserable day.
Much love,
Shirley T. xxx
It is so nice to see a card that can be used for a male. This card ticks all the boxes and I love the effect of the gilding on the ivy.
Hi Janet
Creative Expressions do a guilding wax solution. Its alcohol based I think. You just drip a few drops onto the surface of the wax, do up the lid and leave it to soak over night. I have heard of some people heating the wax with a heat gun but I don't know if this works as I haven't tried it. The gilding wax solution is not expensive and you can do some cool techniques with it- painting with the guilding waxes and making some messy backgrounds. A little goes a really long way too. Hope that helps x
Beautiful card today Sue. Where do you get all these great ideas from?
I love seeking inspiration from your blog site.
Best wishes
Joan from Newcastle
Hi Sue must have a try at this card as I have the ivy dies. It looks stunning
Denise X
Hi Sue
I love, love, loved this card when I saw you demo it. I am a bit of a gilding wax junkie as it's ending up on pretty much every card I do, but despite having half a dozen colours I've yet to pick up gold and silver! In desperation of needing gold a few months ago I tried a gold oil pastel! Not quite the same especially as I had to use a fixative on it afterwards! Silly me, I shall be righting this glaring omission to my crafty stash by searching every online shop I use that sells CE products. Going for some mica flakes too, as have promised myself some for a long time. Got to make a card for a week tomorrow so I'm going to cut the mats today, cut the dies tomorrow etc as I'm still pretty tired. That way I get the card made without messing myself up. Talk about lasting enjoyment - a card that'll take a week to make.
Alison (mecca), hugs x
I could quite happily have a nap now. Time to set the alarm so I don't sleep all afternoon, even with them tearing the road outside up, time now to cuddle up with Billy an relax for an hour as I'm struggling to keep my eyes open! Need to be 100% awake for gilding wax & mica flake hunt as online shopping when tired is never good.
Hugs and wishes of happy crafting to everyone, extra hugs here for anyone that needs them. Billy sending wags and woofs too,

Hi Sue,
WOW!! What a fantastic technique. The ivy almost looks like it's made of pewter and such an easy way to get the stunning result! As always, thanks so much for sharing with us. x
Thank you for your video demonstrating the techniques you used on this lovely card. I have yet to try using Mica Flakes and the Gilding Wax. You make it look so simple! I have the gilding wax, but will have to find a source for the mica flakes. Great idea to place the mica flaked side on the acetate face down to keep the mica from flaking off. The gilding wax certainly makes that black debossed piece look like aged metal. Good job!
love everything about this card
Hi Sue, a stunning card that anyone would think had taken hours to make. I love the look of the mica flakes and like Wheely above, I will have to go in search of some.
Janet (ecco), my gilding wax was pretty dry when I bought it but then I learned of the blending solution and it is fine to use now.
Beautiful card. I have not tried the gilding paste yet but definitely ned to get some and play.
Hi Sue
Stunning card love the gilding.

A very expensive looking card. Think the gilding is a really stunning effect. Thanks for your continued inspiration.
Hi Sue, I love this card, I tried to make my version of it for my husbands birthday yesterday but I put a gilded rose on the middle of the bow because the dazzle setting didn't turn up in time, it was a big hit with him, thanks for sharing as I would never if thought of doing it myself.

Ok ok, will the evil time fairy that has taken my day please take a step forward ! I watched my usual Tuesday treat, then my phone crashed, then only one blog would load ! Then just as I was to upload this very special and favourite blog I had two big brown eyes stare up at me and whimper to be fed (nooo, not Mr Lancashire) so here I am 13 hour's after watching my wonderful demonstrator, designer and friend's tutorial. Better late than naever as the saying goes. I watched you demo this on the POTD and how the non crafty' presenters wowed when you gilded, they have missed so much lol. Its a beautiful card Sue very antique looking, a little like me, antique : )
Hope you are making happy memories inbetween C card samples !!! How on earth in May can you concentrate on festive cards, wonder woman lol.
Val. W. Welcome, its great you have been here all week, keep enjoying your time in the best ever craft blog.
Will love and leave you.

Happy Crafting!!! :) X X
gorgeous. the gilding wax makes the black card look like metal, hugs xx
What an Awesome card .. Amazing :)
That card looks so gorgeous and I love the gold gilding wax on black.
Also what a fab idea with the dazzler setting I would never have thought of that in a million years.
Hi Sue,
I'm late tonight! For some reason I couldn't leave a comment earlier or even Pin the card! In the end I saved it and Pinned it that way! I was quite proud of my little self! However as the saying goes - pride comes before a fall - so I'll watch my step!
Love the card and the video! Great to see it clearly and close up. It is beautiful and I will be trying this out. Many many thanks,

Hi Sue. Ooooh what a fab video and what a gorgeous card today !! It really does look like metal !! Your video is so easy to follow and I love the techniques you have demonstrated. I love the idea of the mica flakes on the acetate. The Greek embossed Dies look really fab using the black card with the enchanted gold guilding wax. It has created such a great look, especially when accompanied by the black and gold ivy borders to !! Also I love your finishing touch of the metal bezzel (I hope I have got that right !!) Using the same guilding flakes again to match the background and tie the card together. It is very pretty and such a lovely look. Thank you for a great video today Sue and a gorgeous card using some clever techniques!! Sending lots of love to you Sue love from Tres x x x

Hi, Sue and fellow Wilsonettes, hope you've all had a good day, despite the cold, hail, rain, etc.
I 'm going to catch up with the video now, while I enjoy a nice hot soak in the bath. I've been out for several hours this afternoon and early evening.
My youngest son phoned me at 2.30pm to see what I was doing as Kelly's waters had broken. He told me I'd better be quick !!! Baby Osian James Wade was born at home at 4.40pm, weighing in at 8 lb 10.5 oz :-) :-) :-) His older brother Thomas is thrilled. Mother and baby are doing brilliantly !!
I really liked this card when I saw it on your shows,
Sue. Sheena Douglass also does something similar with black card and guilding wax.
Hugs and Best Wishes to you all,

Lovely card Sue and really like this technique.
Beautiful card, great video. I don't use black on my cards except when I use gilding wax. I love the metallic look it gives. The first gilding waxes I bought seemed a lot harder than my more recent purchases, which are much easier to use. Blending solution does help on the older ones though.
Congratulations Angela on the arrival of your new grandson.
Take care everyone.
Hi Sue.
This is a fabulous card. Wish you were in Australia so that I could do a class with you, you have so many techniques to share.
