Hi bloggers! Today's card giveaway is a pretty aqua and white card (I seem to be using aqua quite a bit lately, huh!) I started by cutting the
Stacked Diamond Striplet in the bottom of the card, using just the decorative insert die. Next I did a letterpress on the entire background and inked up the
Bed of Roses folder with Clear Perfect Medium and placed the die cut background into the folder. I ran it through the GC which transferred the ink to the floor of the design. I covered it with
Pearlescent Mica powder to give it an all over sheen, then dusted it with a tissue to remove any excess. I backed this piece with
aqua card so it showed through the cut out area. For the focal element on the card, I cut two of the
Vancouver die and then cut them in half just past the centre point, keeping the two larger halves. I cut the
Lisbon die in aqua and backed it with white backing which I cut the centre out of with the
Porto die. I attached the
Vancouver dies to the back of the
Lisbon die so they were peeking out from underneath and trimmed away any area that showed through the centre cut out area. I stamped my sentiment and cut it out with the circle centre die in the
Porto set and made a faux mat for it in aqua. I mounted them in the centre of the frame. I completed the card with some
flatback pearls and a paper pierced white mat, a thin aqua mat and a final white mat layer. The finished dimensions are 7 1/2" x 8 3/4" in size. Leave me a comment to be included in the drawing to win this one. Then check back on Saturday's blog post to see if your name was drawn! Easy as pie! All for now, Sue x

A very classy card aqua & white is so clean & crisp. This card could be used for so many occasions. Yvonne xx
Morning Sue, You can use aqua as much as you like, I definitely like, a really lovely card.
Lots of love from Patricia xx
Hi Sue.
Thank you for offering this delicate beautiful card today. Aqua is such a gorgous shade of blue and sits side by side comfortably along side many more shades of your foundation card, I love using it with the thinnest mat of black, and also with the vintage silver, plus it always seem's that little bit more brighter when used along side with the midnight blue, as you can see Sue im also a big fan of Aqua card too : )
Sending today's sentiment back to you.
Have a lovely day.
Lancashire Steph xxx
Another pretty and delicate card Sue. Love the acqua colour. JJxx
Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, yes, loving this card, the roses ef is gorgeous for this technique, I have tried it myself. The aqua as you know, is my favourite colour so it gets my vote every time.
Enjoy Tuesday, stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx

Another fab card. I love the letter press technique it adds a richness to the card. Thanks Sue for all your ideas, keep them coming. Jxxx
Morning Sue
I cannot think of anyone not wanting today's gift to come through their door whether for a special occasion or a 'just because' and as for winning it well as usual my SW spot is all dusted off and waiting.
It doesn't matter how often you use Aqua it will always be a winner in my book and today's gift just shows the colour off perfectly and it enhances your gorgeous dies
to the maximum.
I managed to finish a couple of bday cards yesterday so I think today will have to be given over to December cards.
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. A beautiful card today. I love the aqua/white colours and mica powder adds a lovely hint of colour too. Hugs to everyone. Take care xx

A great card Sue. I love the striplet die and the mica powder with the letter pressing is brilliant. Aqua always looks good so no worries about over using it, and the way the die cuts are put together for the focal point is lovely. Thank you. Xx
Hi Sue, firstly the card is very beautiful, just love everything about it.
Secondly may I congratulate you on being nominated as best overall designer in the Crafts Beautiful awards.

Today's giveaway card is just gorgeous! You could use aqua everyday for me as it's such a lovely colour. I love that pearlescent sheen from the mica powder. Debra x
Hi Sue
Loved today's card which used several techniques.
Ginniex
Must try the technique you have used on the background as it has such a lovely sheen. The die combination is great. Really hope I am the lucky one with this card. Thank you for so many ideas Sue.

Hi Sue.
I love this card. The colours are so delicate and I must give the mica/embossing folder a try. I don't know where you keep getting the brilliant ideas from.
Regards,
Evis M.
A lovely card, Sue. Like Jan, I love the technique for the background.
Anne (Northampton)
Such a pretty card, no complaints about the aqua card from me xx
Good morning Sue, such a pretty card this morning - very delicate colours and love the letterpressing background!
Janette x
Morning Sue, another beautiful card, and really pretty colours too. I do like the letterpress technique but need a bit more practice to get it as good as yours.
Wendyxx
Morning Sue,
Very pretty card. The mica gives it a lovely pearl effect. Must try that technique.
Pat xxx
Good morning Sue I don't mind if you keep using the aqua card. Such a pretty colour and with the lacy design and the embossing folder it's a win win no doubt. The postman delivered the stamp set yesterday which you have kindly sent from last week's comments draw so thank you so much for it. Love from Jackie xx
Hi Sue,
Another amazing card in my favourite colour.
Don't know how you come up with there wonderful ideas every day. You must have a fantastic crafty imagination.
Love Val in Spainx
Morning Sue
You are forgiven for using Aqua. I don't think anyone will mind. And the sentiment - well right back at you.
Gorgeous creation. There is just a splish (that's slightly less than a splash), of colour and with the usual 'Sue ingenuity' the dies are showcased to perfection. To sum it up - awesome. Please let me win x
Barbara - Happy Birthday for yesterday. Hope you had a lovely day x
Beth B - there's being food orientated but then there's being two sandwiches short of a picnic! There is no easy way to tell you this but you are definitely the latter! lol x
Wheely Bad - sorry you are feeling so yucky. Hang in there and try and stay positive. I am sending big hugs. Hope you start to feel better. Does Mr W follow your instructions or does he pretend to listen and then do things his way? x
Molly - sorry that your granddad is feeling so rough. It does seem so unfair that the treatment that is helping him is making him feel so awful. Everyone is thinking of you and sending you and your family love and hugs x
Lorraine - I hate ironing. Have to say I have made absolutely certain that in my psyche is the fact that I will always ensure that it only gets ironed if absolutely necessary. Knickers - no, socks - certainly not, pillow cases - please!! Life is too short to iron your smalls and I can't be bothered. I was secretly delighted when George decided that he likes skinny jeans. I think they look dreadful but they are so tight that the creases are stretched out when he sprays them on - no extra effort required on my part x
Maria - summer cold? Perhaps it is man flu? I hear that is a dreadful condition!! I hope the cheese grater is no longer wedged in your throat. Hate having a sore throat. Feel better soon - hugs x]
Hope everyone has a lovely day. Hopefully getting a head of highlights so might even look more presentable this time tomorrow - fingers crossed.
Crafty hugs

Such a pretty card, I don't mind you using aqua again I love it

YvonneMayxx
Hi Sue,
Beautiful card this morning and I too am a lover of the Aqua card. Sorry I didn't pop in yesterday but the dreaded migraine struck. Loved what you did with the configuration dies then too. Can I also say belated congratulations to the lucky die winners - I am very envious of you all. Wheely sorry to hear you are feeling poorly - hope you start to feel better soon. Molly sending love and gentle hugs to you, your grandad and grandma. To everyone not feeling 100% I send you gentle hugs too. Have as good a day as possible everyone, love Alison xxx
Gorgeous card Sue, the colour combo is lovely and soft : )
Morning Sue; Keep the aqua coloured cards coming. It is such a lovely delicate colour. I like the bed of roses EF too but haven't given your letterpress technique for some time as it doesn't turn out like yours. Maybe I need another new ink pad or GC. Thank you for all your inspiration. Hugs xx PAuline A
Good Morning Sue, that is such a pretty colour and youve created a really stunning card with the dies. hugs Shirleyxxxxxxxx
This a really gorgeous card. The Aqua is a glorious colour is't it. I have just finished making an over-the-top birthday card for my mum using the same colour. I like the letterpress technique with the mica powder, it really brings up the pattern; my attempts at the technique are nowhere near as good as yours but it will keep practicing because the end results are worth it.
A beautiful card, I love this color combination, so soft and elegant :))
Love the aqua colour in this card, it gives a gentle, peaceful colour combination, if you know what I mean! Beautiful card too.
Susi in Cyprus
I love the aqua and white and beautiful texture

Yvonne now really would you iron jeans anyway? No the creases soon get smoothed out and can you imagine the looks you would get if you put a nice sharp crease in them! Lol xxx

Hello Sue
I can understand why you are using the aqua so much, it's such a lovely colour, vintage silver and white has also been very popular with all recently. The Stacked Diamond Striplet is a lovely die. I really like the way you have used the Vancouver die under the Lisbon die. Thanks for sharing.

Hello Sue,
What a beautiful card, I love how you have added depth to your embossing folder (not embarrassing folder, as I said the other day. It's that predictive text thing. But I'm sure it gave quite a few of you I giggle ) by adding Perfect iMedium and Mica powder, the effect is really gorgeous.
Hope everyone is having a good day, take care, love Brenda XXX
Hi Sue,
A beautiful card, you've done it again. That embossing folder is gorgeous and the letterpressing makes it even more beautiful.

Good afternoon lovely Sue and fabby Wilsonettes,
What a delicately feminine card, very vintage in feel I think, and I just adore it. The letterpress technique with the Bed of Roses EF and the mica powder creates a subtle sheen that makes this gem positively glow-as the lucky recipient will when they adopt it!
I love the diamond and lace striplet, it is just so versatile, I only wish I owned it along with the Portugese Collection but maybe they will feature in your next shows. I have dusted off my spot for this little beauty but I am not going to employ any underhand tactics to persuade you to let me be its 'mummy' because I now believe this kind of approach to be common and distasteful. Instead, I will put my trust in fate and hope that karma will take into account my tireless charity work with the underprivileged:-)
I am most definitely doing the happy dance, in such a way as to not cause injury, because my dies have been delivered by my gorgeous and prompt Postie-it took all of my self control not to jump him when I spied the rectangular brown envelope in his hand, I am sure that he would much rather face a rabid Rottweiler than a Sue Wilson maniac foaming at the mouth with excited anticipation!
I now have a special folder to house all of my current and future Christmas themed dies in the knowledge that I am sometimes so scarily organised that I am verging on lunacy!
Yvonne and Diane, of course you still iron jeans...skinny or loose fit, though even I draw a line at putting in a central crease because that's just sooo seventies darling!
Wheelybad and Alimecca, hope you are feeling a bit brighter today, sending warm, healing hugs your way girlsxxxx
I'm off to put the finishing touches on a birthday card before silently stroking my new dies....I did say that I was a lunatic:-)
Love and crafty hugs,
Laine1972xxxxxx
Wow, this is gorgeous! Your dies look amazing with the shimmer! I am enjoying your blog very much!
Hi Sue,
Another really pretty card using my favourite striplets. love the e/f with the letter press technique....Gorgeous!

Hi Sue, a gorgeous card in one of my favourite colours and one that anyone would be proud to own. I have just ordered some more of your Christmas dies and a couple of the embossing folders had the cheek to jump into my basket. Oh well, if they want to share my home who am I to stop them :-)

What a beautiful card! Love those dies.
Another beautiful one, and aqua is such a soft colour, Love it.. TFS again,
Aqua is a very relaxing and happy color. That's why I too keep using it. I love the open/lacy look of these dies. I hadn't thought of cutting die cuts until you showed it in one of your videos. Thank you for showing us how to extend the use of our dies.
What a lovely card!

Lovely card
Such a stunner of a card in aqua and white with added shimmer with the mica powder! Your Stacked Diamond Striplet die set is a delight to work with; and looks so different when cut out this way into today's card. So much detail went into this card. I am so glad you write out the steps for us Wilsonettes. I would have missed a couple of steps! Congratulations on the nomination for "Designer of the Year 2015". I eagerly await September so I can vote for you.
A gorgeous card Sue love the colour
I look forward to each morning when I can see another beautiful card created by you. This one is beautiful and now there are more dies that I need to add to my collection. (Of course, I have been using them.)

Hi Sue
Absolutely love the aqua white combination. It looks fantastic.
The diamond striplet with the pearls is so wonderful as well...Rosie xxx
As always stunning card..You give me so much inspiration! ! Thanks
What a great idea to emboss the panel and then cut in designs with the striplet. Definitely want to try that! The card is gorgeous and I would feel so privileged if I won it. I pinned as usual. https://www.pinterest.com/pin/415386765609458977/

I love the aqua, Sue, keep using it! This one is beautiful and elegant, yet appears to be simple to do. Looking forward to trying some things once I get some of the dies that I have ordered.

Hi Sue
A beautiful card and I like the different types of card stock you've chosen.
Hi Sue & wilsonettes...
As always Sue I absolutely love your beautiful cards & this one is no exception so many wonderful techniques to do singularly or collectively...to view the results of your amazing talents daily is to me a real privilege....if I knew where to vote for top card maker I wouldn't hesitate in placing your name right where it belongs...simply because you give so much to us so it is the least I can do in the way of thanks in return...x x x
Well my friends I now have an abscess under my right gold capped tooth...kept me awake most of last night...now on Claryithromycin antibiotics...so sorry if this is short...at least I had a good excuse to rest & snooze today.
Anyways my friends I would like to send you love & (((((hugs))))) to you all especially to those who are in need. X x x
As always love n hugs to you Sue & sincerely hope that you are having a wonderful time with your mum, family & friends...
love Beth B x x x
Stunning card again. I love that embossing folder. Something else to add to my wish list.
My 13yr old Granddaughter is coming to visit tomorrow. We will be doing some papercrafts, or maybe jewellery making or perhaps I'll teach her to crochet. I like to have a plan or two.

Fabulous card Sue, very opulent. I love those pretty die cut layers and the embossing. Pat x
