A daily papercrafting blog which features my handmade cards showcasing Creative Expression's products including my own line of cutting dies and embossing folders, Cosmic Shimmer, Ranger and more which use various techniques and ideas to hopefully inspire the creativity in you.
Gorgeous card Sue and using dies I have not looked at but now I will. Love the versatility of these striplet dies and the one for the middle is divine (forgot the name sorry). Have a great day, hugs xx
Morning Sue. WOW Another of your very opulent and decadent card's. I love everything about this card the colour's are so rich and another great way to use your striplet die's. They are just so versatile and your idea's to use them just keep on coming. Thank's for another great video with all of your hint's and tip's for making this beautiful creation. Take care everyone. Best Wishes. Denise T x
Hi Sue. A lovely card today, very striking, I love the colour combo and how they show the beautiful detail of the dies, and what a wonderful sentiment. I will enjoy the video later on : ) Hugs to everyone. Take care xx
Good morning Sue,, Love your beautiful card, fantastic design and sentiment. I do hope everyone looks at those special words and uses them. A kindness can make such a difference and so easily given. Have a great day Patricia xxx
Morning Sue Another great way to use striplets. Lovely card and nice colourway again. I do like black and gold together. The white sets it off on this one. Lovely. Have a great day out there everyone! Anne M xx
Morning Sue Although you have used the same colour palette for today's gift as yesterday today's gift is better for me as there is more white showing. I still cringe when you cut your beautiful die cuts and although I know it's giving us another use for them they are so beautiful whole. I just have to grit my teeth before pulling down the cutting edge. I do love your format for the centre piece as it doesn't take the impact away from your wonderful striplet die.
It's the big monthly market today so I'm hoping there may be one or two bargains to be had as it's the last one we shall get before we return in October.
To all in pain and suffering today I hope your day gets better. To everyone please take care and stay safe. See you tomorrow. Janet x
Hi Sue, Lovely use of the striplet die - still one of my favourite type of die. I do like the layout but it's the colours I don't like although as Janet says, there's not as much black as yesterday. Going to watch the video now with my cup of coffee. Have as good a day as is possible everyone, love and hugs to you all, Alison xxx
Such a sumptuous looking card Sue, love it. Your Striplet die are so versatile and the Vancouver so pretty, it's now going on my list! Hugs to all, Linda.
Good morning Sue, A beautiful card again Sue ,don't know about the colours, but the sentiment I like. And wholeheartedly agree with Patricia!! Take care Jane B.
Good morning Sue today's card is gorgeous. I am looking forward to watching the video later and I don't have to wait until I get back from work today as I am on school holidays. Have a great day. Hugs Jackie

Hi Sue A cracking card , i love all your Striplet dies,so versatile and now you have show another way to use them. Will watch the video later. Take Care Elaine H X
Similar colours to yesterday, Sue, which I love. Crikey, though, chopped striplets!! and very effective too. Nice card. Thanks for another great video. Melody - will look back to see Molly's comment, think she's won a lot of hearts here! A lot of us, and our loved ones, have been through what you and Francis currently are so know how hard it is. Keep positive!! Lots of finger crossing always a good thing.
Hi Sue! That is a brilliant striplet idea for yet another varied look! What an Elegant and Gorgeous Card with the contrasting colors. Beautiful layered design.
Hello Sue! Not so much Black as yesterday so a little lighter ....love the Sentiment and the Striplet Dies! Need the Video later for inspiration Take care Love Marg
More thinking out of the box: I think the idea of splitting the striplet gives a great result. I love the black and gold combination, using this with the light background makes it decadent as you said rather than funereal. Fabulous card.
A beautiful sumptuous card showing off the striplets to perfection. The sentiment is gorgeous too, everyone should pass on a little bit of kindness each day. It can create ripples and waves around the world if we all joined in and touched someone with a kindness from ourselves. Love & hugs Cheryl xxx
Good morning Sue, I just love it!!! I love how you always think outside the box and it is only paper!!! I can here everyone screaming :) he he!!! The sentiment is fab and I send it back to you!!! Have a good one!!! Loopy Lynda xxx
Dear Sue Another way to use the striplet dies which I have many! lol. A very stunning card the colours definitely make a statement. Take Care Love Michelle S xxx
You're obviously on a black and vintage gold theme at the moment and both the striplet and the Vancouver look stunning in this colour combo...
Saba - you won't see that advert over there in Germany and it's just the latest in their "I like this (expensive brand) and I like this (cheaper own brand)" series of ads...and then up pops this macaw screaming LIKELIKELIKELIKELIKELIKE....it really tickled my funnybone
Hi Sue & crafty friends Love this card Sue, the black and gold is gorgeous. I'm liking the lattice and lace more and more and the art nouveau Vancouver is gorgeous. beautiful card. Full day in work today, only 2 more sleeps and we're off. love and blessings and hugs to all my friends x x Deb C xx
Such a striking card Sue! Once again using a die for something other than I see when I look at it, I wish I had that sort of imagination! Off for a cuppa so I can watch the video in comfort. :) Paula x (WelshPaula)
Hello sue an everyone the card looks pretty with the gold boarders I have got to wait for dad to come home before I can watch the video because it's saying something about the flash player an he is only one who can sort it like last time. Good news everyone my granddads test were all ok so he can start his next round of chemo tomorrow. I read him all the comments everyone of you wrote an he said wow all the crossing of fingers an toes must of done the job an to say thank you to you all. Even the doctor said she can't believe his hair not started to fall out yet but said it probably will in next week or 2 oh an they sent a wig doctor to see him. Nan said I not allowed to tell you what granddad said about that an I wouldn't anyway because I don't swear. Thank you everyone your all very kind Molly oxoxox
Good morning Sue Is there no end to the versatility of the striplet? I love the border you've created with it. I enjoyed the video and love today's card thank for sharing. Hugs x Heather T
Hi Sue. Another beautiful striking card today. Black and gold alway's looks rich and decedent. The striplet die is the real star of the show, but it takes a star to create a masterpeice : )
Looks like our rescue dog gift wants to help with the decorating by carrying a roll of wallpaper into her master ! Lol, could that be classed as an act of kindness ? Lol bless her heart. Have a wonderful day Sue. Lancashire Steph xxx
Hi Sue what a stunner again today in this gorgeous colour combination. Love the way you cut the striplets, it makes such a fantastic boarder, yes Janet I held my breath too . Thank you so much for sharing, and all your hints and tips. Love to you and your mum from Diane G xxx
Molly and Melody I'm so glad grandads treatment has gone well so far, we will keep everything crossed for him. Oh yes I can imagine his comment when the wig Doctor visited! That made me chuckle. Big hugs to you all xxx
Hi Sue, Another lovely black and gold card, a gorgeous combination, love how you have chopped the striplet in half, will be trying this. The striplets are so useful and seem to end up on no end of my cards. Great video too. Lydia X
Afternoon Sue I don't always have time to put a comment but today I am so taken with this card I had to say something. The colours are very striking and affective. Beautiful. Love Karen in Telford
Hi Sue, another great black and gold beauty. Just love those colours together. Keep them coming. The sentiment says it all. Will be getting my step let dies out now and chopping them in halves to see what I can come up with. ( probably a bits mountain), but with your inspiration my cards are improving. Thank you. Hugs xx Pauline A
Hi Sue, Another card for us all to love! The colours are so striking. I have to say that I think your striplet dies are the best idea you've come up with. They are just so versatile! My wish list grows ever longer lol. xx
Wow! This looks amazing! So elegant! I enjoyed your video and I love these intricate dies! I just joined as a follower yesterday so I am enjoying the inspiration - thank you!
Hi Sue, on first looking at the photographs I thought I didn't really like this card but watching the video really brought it to life and I do like it now but it is still not really one for me. Must be the black lol. Just as well we don't all like the same things or it would be a very dull world.
Molly - so pleased your Granddad's latest tests came back ok and he can go on with the treatment. When I was your age I lived next door to a lady who both made and taught others how to make wigs. I was very lucky and allowed to do some of the more simple processes but oh my, it was very fine and fiddly. I doubt the process has changed much so tell your granddad if he does eventually need a wig to appreciate all the hard work that has gone into it :-)
Hi Sue Another very striking card and as always a great instructional video, thank you for your kindness in sharing with us every day
Molly glad your Granda is able to cope with another round of chemo and will keep our fingers and toes crossed for him
Maria thank you for rembemering Sarah in your message yesterday. It is almost a year since her surgery in Great Ormond street but unfortunately the operation wasn't as successful as we'd hoped and the curvature of her spine is much worse. She is going back over there tomorrow, with mum and dad, to see orthopaedic consultant to find out what else can be done. However she is a very happy little girl and it will be her 8th birthday on Saturday
Another lovely card, so elegant! And using striplets to make the borders is just a clever idea, thanks! Thanks as always for your fabulous videotutorial!
Don't you just love video days-I was watching some new Christmas inspired ones yesterday and I am so inspired to get started on my own, and it can't wait until Sue starts posting more of her fabulous examples. Back to today's card, I haven't had time to watch as yet-too many household chores:-(, but I loved yesterday's colour scheme so it goes without saying that I adore today's offering. If I didn't have so many Christmas dies to purchase I would definitely be buying this striplet-sue reminds us yet again that her dies are just so versatile, though chopping them does feel like sacrilege! Another must have are the Configurations dies, I don't have any at the moment so hopefully one will be cheeky enough to jump into my basket next time I shop for goodies. I am so excited, I had custody of our credit card yesterday(I have a joint account with my Mum), and I was coerced into getting the Peony dies and my first Christmas die, the corner , border and tag snowflake die. I have a long way to go with my Christmas collection, but if I buy a few a week hopefully I can get them all sooner rather than later because I'm itching to start...Ho!Ho!Ho! Darcey was a good girl last night and decided that the prawns were too much of a temptation-Saba, only the babies are allowed prawns in our house I'm afraid, and they have to be king prawns for Brodie and M&S prawns for Darcey....they often get better fed than us! Debs , hope your coping with the packing, I wish I could sneak into your suitcase and stowaway to Portugal with you, but no holidays allowed whilst iam attending SWAA...Sue Wilson Addicts Anonymous, the urge to buy related products is too strong just now so I am banned from discussing any ideas relating to breaks away! Molly, what great news for you, granny Melody and your Grandad. I can't believe he still has his lovely long hair and I'm not surprised by his reaction to a wig because they aren't everyone's cup of tea. Besides i am sure he will totally rock the bald look anyway-I once shaved my hair off and it was great not having to spend ages every day washing and drying it. Good luck with the next course of treatmentxxxx Sending healing hugs to Yvonne and my other friends who are in need of a bit of TLCXXXXX
Hi Sue Todays card, like yesterdays is really elegant. Black and gold make them so opulent and regal in my opinion. I adore the striplet dies and when you show us how to use them in a different way it makes them so much more valuable. Will watch the video a bit later. Hope you're having a wonderful time x
Still not quite up to speed with everything but definitely getting there slowly. Very eager to get on but aware that need to pace myself. Moly - lots of love to you and nan and granddad - big hugs x Deb C - special hugs to you too. Hope you have a fabulous holiday. If you can't be good be careful x 'P' in Wales - never been described as normal so will take that as a huge compliment - thank you x
God willing, be back tomorrow Crafty hugs Yvonne x
I really love all the cards, Sue! I'm new to your products and am anxious to get my first dies. I love watching the videos as I am learning an lot of new techniques and it is just fun to watch you create. Thank you for all the great ideas and products.
Hi Sue, Another stunning card and video! Love the colours and the way you have used the Striplet. Beautiful sentiment - if only we all did that! Tried your floating sentiment technique with Peace on Earth - very pleased with the result - thanks so much! Molly - thank you for telling us about Grandad - so pleased he can begin his next chemo session! You did make me smile about his comment about the wig! Love to you all. X Izzy - have seen that advert - it's hilarious! Guess who got me to look at it? Saba! You see my husband presses the Mute Button when adverts come on! Drives me nuts but some adverts do too! Have a good everyone, Hope you've arrived safely, Sandra and family! Xx Lots of love, Myra xxx
Hi Sue. Love the card and the use of striplets. I am not fond of the black however. I think it would look just as good in different colours. Regards, Evis M.
Love the card and enjoyed the video. I always love to watch what you do with the striplet dies. Unfortunately not a great lover of black but sure it would look good in other colours.
Hi Sue Another stunner today. Loving the vintage Gold and Black combo. The dies really make a statement in this colour. Everyone spread a little kindness please.
The more I use the Striplets and the more ideas I see with them used they are definitely my favorite dies!! The colors are gorgeous and very striking. Never thought of cutting the striplet in half, what a great idea Sue. Thanks.
Thanks big bunches Sue, for sharing this gorgeous card and what a great tip!! I was struggling with a card and specific strip as to what to do with it. I love the strip, but have spent days trying to find what I wanted for my card. Did you hear me and come up with this just for me! :) I love your projects and watching your videos. You are so inspiring and talented. Thank you again sweetheart! Now I will go make my card! Hugs Lori
Think this striplet is so versatile and at the top of my wish list for the dies from the range that I have missing. Both this post and yesterdays are both stunning in their colour combo and the use of the dies. Just love'm
I'm sorry I seem to be working a day behind, yesterday's was absolutely stunning and today's is just as beautiful. I am going to watch the video later with a glass of wine.
Hello Sue, and all the ladies. Another beautiful card today, love the colours. Izzy, the ad is brilliant, Saba said we had to watch it, so I did. Love to all Maureen xxx
Such a fabulous card and colour and the video is very informative, thank you Sue for your constant inspiration and kindness, Sandra i hope your holiday is going well and you are having a good time, Molly i am happy that grandad can now go onto his next round of chemo, i wish him well. Hugs to all Johanna
The Striplet die makes a stunner of a card. But the Petite Arched Adornment really makes this card gorgeous adding it to the top and bottom of the center piece. Thanks for another wonderful video.
Gorgeous card today and I never thought I would say this but I love the black and gold card together. The reason I say this is because I am not keen on cards with black but sue has converted me now. lol
Theresa says Hi sue and lovely wilsonettes x Lovely card today sue as was yesterdays I did comment but it has now disappeared ??? It was a very nice comment I promise x Theresa w xxx
Hi Sue and everyone. Love the card Sue and I have this die but not sure that I can cut into it just yet, will practice. I have some of your tutorials to watch so tomorrow looking good.
Pat L- sorry Sarah's op didn't go right, but glad to hear she still take it in her stride and I wish her a lovely Happy 8th Birthday on Saturday !x Molly- good news for granddad, wish him strong. If he were to lose his hair and not wanted wear a wig maybe you can get him some colourful bandanna's. many hugs to you and to the rest of the family x
To anyone in pain or having treatments ,I'm sending hugs and well wishes to you all. Also hugs to all Wisonette's ,our wonderful Sue and to good friends
Good evening Sue & friends A very elegant card love the striplets dies you can do so much with them very versatile. I haven't got this particular striplet but could adapt the ones I have. I haven't had chance to watch video yet but I'm sure it's brilliant, Love & Hug's Lynda Brock xx

Hello Sue Thank you for another inspirational video. I do wish you would get a trimmer with a safety guard though, I have to close my eyes. I love your gold and black theme, it is so decadent looking. I love the sentiment and think Patricia summed up what we all feel about the value of kindness.
Pat L I hope that the consultants visit is a positive one for Sarah. Huge hugs for a brave little girl and best wishes for her birthday.
Izzy, look what you have started now, I found the video and passed it in to my lovely friends. It tickled me too and a visit to that supermarket will never be the same again.
Molly, can I uncross my toes now? Good girl not repeating grandaddy's words. Love and hugs for you and your Nan and Granddaddy.
Hellooooo Sue and the Wilsonettes! I'm loving these elegant cards of gold, black and milk. They are stunning! I don't have any Striplet dies and I've probably said it before, but I will (when?) have a go with some borders that I have. Great video as always Sue. There are people who can understand written guides, so I am so glad that the step by step visual is there to keep going back to. "Thank you Sue" for all the hard work that you do, so that we can produce beautiful cards like these xx Sending love and hugs to you Sue, your mom and family x Hope you are having a bit of rest so that you can make wonderful memories at "home".

Looks like our rescue dog gift wants to help with the decorating by carrying a roll of wallpaper into her master ! Lol, could that be classed as an act of kindness ? Lol bless her heart.
Have a wonderful day Sue.

Hi Sue what a stunner again today in this gorgeous colour combination. Love the way you cut the striplets, it makes such a fantastic boarder, yes Janet I held my breath too . Thank you so much for sharing, and all your hints and tips. Love to you and your mum from Diane G xxx
Molly and Melody I'm so glad grandads treatment has gone well so far, we will keep everything crossed for him. Oh yes I can imagine his comment when the wig Doctor visited! That made me chuckle. Big hugs to you all xxx
Morning Sue, lovely card, great idea with the striplet, will be trying that with my Regal Striplet now I've watched the video.

Hi Sue,
Another lovely black and gold card, a gorgeous combination, love how you have chopped the striplet in half, will be trying this. The striplets are so useful and seem to end up on no end of my cards. Great video too.

Afternoon Sue
I don't always have time to put a comment but today I am so taken with this card I had to say something. The colours are very striking and affective. Beautiful.
Love

Hi Sue, another great black and gold beauty. Just love those colours together. Keep them coming. The sentiment says it all. Will be getting my step let dies out now and chopping them in halves to see what I can come up with. ( probably a bits mountain), but with your inspiration my cards are improving. Thank you. Hugs xx Pauline A
Hi Sue,
Another card for us all to love! The colours are so striking. I have to say that I think your striplet dies are the best idea you've come up with. They are just so versatile! My wish list grows ever longer lol. xx
Hi Sue
Beautiful and very Elegant card. Off to watch the Video
Take care
Hazel G XX
Hi Sue,
What Hazel G said............. beautiful and very elegant. And the sentiment is so true.
You are truly inspiring.
Hugs, Rose
Another black, gold and white card. Absolutely stunning.
Wow! This looks amazing! So elegant! I enjoyed your video and I love these intricate dies! I just joined as a follower yesterday so I am enjoying the inspiration - thank you!
Hi Sue, on first looking at the photographs I thought I didn't really like this card but watching the video really brought it to life and I do like it now but it is still not really one for me. Must be the black lol. Just as well we don't all like the same things or it would be a very dull world.
Molly - so pleased your Granddad's latest tests came back ok and he can go on with the treatment. When I was your age I lived next door to a lady who both made and taught others how to make wigs. I was very lucky and allowed to do some of the more simple processes but oh my, it was very fine and fiddly. I doubt the process has changed much so tell your granddad if he does eventually need a wig to appreciate all the hard work that has gone into it :-)
Frances
Very nice, looking forward to watching the video later :)
Love that folder & it is a lovely card Sue. X
Hi Sue
Another very striking card and as always a great instructional video, thank you for your kindness in sharing with us every day
Molly glad your Granda is able to cope with another round of chemo and will keep our fingers and toes crossed for him
Maria thank you for rembemering Sarah in your message yesterday. It is almost a year since her surgery in Great Ormond street but unfortunately the operation wasn't as successful as we'd hoped and the curvature of her spine is much worse. She is going back over there tomorrow, with mum and dad, to see orthopaedic consultant to find out what else can be done. However she is a very happy little girl and it will be her 8th birthday on Saturday
Hugs and best wishes everyone

Hi Sue

Another lovely card, so elegant! And using striplets to make the borders is just a clever idea, thanks!
Thanks as always for your fabulous videotutorial!
Hi Sue,here I am again for my daily dose of inspiration, love it!!. x
Hello Sue.
Thank you for another great idea of how to use a Striplet die. The dies you have used are lovely as is the colour combination. Thank you for sharing.
Best wishes.
Gorgeous card!
Diane
I really love this color combination. The striplet dies are great, so versatile
What a great using of the striplet dies
The card turned out really nice
well done Sue
Loving all of the elegant cards the last few days!!! The striplets are good for so many different things! TFS!
Good afternoon dear Sue and fabulous Wilsonettes,
Don't you just love video days-I was watching some new Christmas inspired ones yesterday and I am so inspired to get started on my own, and it can't wait until Sue starts posting more of her fabulous examples.
Back to today's card, I haven't had time to watch as yet-too many household chores:-(, but I loved yesterday's colour scheme so it goes without saying that I adore today's offering. If I didn't have so many Christmas dies to purchase I would definitely be buying this striplet-sue reminds us yet again that her dies are just so versatile, though chopping them does feel like sacrilege! Another must have are the Configurations dies, I don't have any at the moment so hopefully one will be cheeky enough to jump into my basket next time I shop for goodies.
I am so excited, I had custody of our credit card yesterday(I have a joint account with my Mum), and I was coerced into getting the Peony dies and my first Christmas die, the corner , border and tag snowflake die. I have a long way to go with my Christmas collection, but if I buy a few a week hopefully I can get them all sooner rather than later because I'm itching to start...Ho!Ho!Ho!
Darcey was a good girl last night and decided that the prawns were too much of a temptation-Saba, only the babies are allowed prawns in our house I'm afraid, and they have to be king prawns for Brodie and M&S prawns for Darcey....they often get better fed than us!
Debs , hope your coping with the packing, I wish I could sneak into your suitcase and stowaway to Portugal with you, but no holidays allowed whilst iam attending SWAA...Sue Wilson Addicts Anonymous, the urge to buy related products is too strong just now so I am banned from discussing any ideas relating to breaks away!
Molly, what great news for you, granny Melody and your Grandad. I can't believe he still has his lovely long hair and I'm not surprised by his reaction to a wig because they aren't everyone's cup of tea. Besides i am sure he will totally rock the bald look anyway-I once shaved my hair off and it was great not having to spend ages every day washing and drying it. Good luck with the next course of treatmentxxxx
Sending healing hugs to Yvonne and my other friends who are in need of a bit of TLCXXXXX
Loads of love and crafty hugs,

Hi Sue
Todays card, like yesterdays is really elegant. Black and gold make them so opulent and regal in my opinion. I adore the striplet dies and when you show us how to use them in a different way it makes them so much more valuable. Will watch the video a bit later. Hope you're having a wonderful time x
Still not quite up to speed with everything but definitely getting there slowly. Very eager to get on but aware that need to pace myself.
Moly - lots of love to you and nan and granddad - big hugs x
Deb C - special hugs to you too. Hope you have a fabulous holiday. If you can't be good be careful x
'P' in Wales - never been described as normal so will take that as a huge compliment - thank you x
God willing, be back tomorrow
Crafty hugs

I really love all the cards, Sue! I'm new to your products and am anxious to get my first dies. I love watching the videos as I am learning an lot of new techniques and it is just fun to watch you create. Thank you for all the great ideas and products.
Lorraine - we obviously commented at the same time. Is it really wise to let you have custody of the card? I have my doubts
x
Hi Sue,
Another stunning card and video! Love the colours and the way you have used the Striplet. Beautiful sentiment - if only we all did that!
Tried your floating sentiment technique with Peace on Earth - very pleased with the result - thanks so much!
Molly - thank you for telling us about Grandad - so pleased he can begin his next chemo session! You did make me smile about his comment about the wig! Love to you all. X
Izzy - have seen that advert - it's hilarious! Guess who got me to look at it? Saba! You see my husband presses the Mute Button when adverts come on! Drives me nuts but some adverts do too!
Have a good everyone,
Hope you've arrived safely, Sandra and family! Xx
Lots of love,
Myra xxx
Lovely Card Sue!
I love the use of the striplet as borders, but the black is a bit too much my taste.
Happy Crafting!!! :)
What a beautiful card, Sue x
Hi Sue.
Love the card and the use of striplets.
I am not fond of the black however.
I think it would look just as good in different colours.
Regards,
Evis M.
Stunning card today Sue. Loved the video as always. The Striplet dies seem so versatile, and of course Sue, you make it look so easy.44
I have the Christmas poinsettia Striplet, so I am going to have a try at doing something similar.
Wish me luck. Love n hugs Dorothy Macdonald
Love the card and enjoyed the video. I always love to watch what you do with the striplet dies. Unfortunately not a great lover of black but sure it would look good in other colours.
Hi Sue
Another stunner today. Loving the vintage Gold and Black combo. The dies really make a statement in this colour. Everyone spread a little kindness please.
The more I use the Striplets and the more ideas I see with them used they are definitely my favorite dies!! The colors are gorgeous and very striking. Never thought of cutting the striplet in half, what a great idea Sue. Thanks.
Thanks big bunches Sue, for sharing this gorgeous card and what a great tip!! I was struggling with a card and specific strip as to what to do with it. I love the strip, but have spent days trying to find what I wanted for my card. Did you hear me and come up with this just for me! :) I love your projects and watching your videos. You are so inspiring and talented. Thank you again sweetheart! Now I will go make my card! Hugs Lori
Hi Sue
Yet another great way of using the striplet dies.
Thanks for the video.
Think this striplet is so versatile and at the top of my wish list for the dies from the range that I have missing. Both this post and yesterdays are both stunning in their colour combo and the use of the dies. Just love'm
Hi Sue
I'm sorry I seem to be working a day behind, yesterday's was absolutely stunning and today's is just as beautiful. I am going to watch the video later with a glass of wine.
Hopefully tomorrow I will catch up.
Big Hugs to all :-)

Hello Sue
Thank you for another inspirational video. I do wish you would get a trimmer with a safety guard though, I have to close my eyes.
I love your gold and black theme, it is so decadent looking. I love the sentiment and think Patricia summed up what we all feel about the value of kindness.
Pat L I hope that the consultants visit is a positive one for Sarah. Huge hugs for a brave little girl and best wishes for her birthday.
Izzy, look what you have started now, I found the video and passed it in to my lovely friends. It tickled me too and a visit to that supermarket will never be the same again.
Molly, can I uncross my toes now? Good girl not repeating grandaddy's words. Love and hugs for you and your Nan and Granddaddy.
Love and hugs for all

Hellooooo Sue and the Wilsonettes! I'm loving these elegant cards of gold, black and milk. They are stunning! I don't have any Striplet dies and I've probably said it before, but I will (when?) have a go with some borders that I have. Great video as always Sue. There are people who can understand written guides, so I am so glad that the step by step visual is there to keep going back to. "Thank you Sue" for all the hard work that you do, so that we can produce beautiful cards like these xx Sending love and hugs to you Sue, your mom and family x Hope you are having a bit of rest so that you can make wonderful memories at "home". Sending love and hugs to all our Wilsonettes who are hurting and in need xx Take care everyone xx Love Karen xx
