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.
Hi crafters! Today's video card shows you how to change a striplet into a tag for your sentiments. It shows you that there are even more uses for your Striplet dies.
The finished dimensions are 7 1/4" x 8 1/4" in size. All for now, Sue x
Morning Sue. I am back to normal today.I was late yesterday, we just have a brand new great grandson, I was looking after his two year old big sister. Thank you, a beautiful card and a great video, I had to smile when you said I am using the Emma die whole, I thought no cutting up then came the striplet LOL. Take care Kitty.
Pretty card, Sue, but lordy had a panic when you chopped up my favourite die!! Didn't realise at first that you'd used the lattice window. Altogether lovely, and thanks for the video - which provided some extra entertainment - my PC kept stopping the video whilst continuing with the sound, so ffff ffff went your aerosol glue while you were standing stock still looking at the can! Really funny. Laine - yes would like to see all our furry friends, but B&R's confidence not yet up for standing still and posing - it'll come.
Good morning Sue, Yet another way to use a striplet die, they are so versatile. Colours are pretty and the flat roses make it easier for posting. Love and crafty hugs to all who need them. Tina T xxx💐✂️
Hi Sue. Lovely card, but will have to save the video for tonight as have to be at work early and won't be back until after 8pm tonight. I think I spy that the lattice window die has been cut up to make a tag though; luckily I managed to buy this die at the weekend but haven't had a play yet so this video might give me the inspiration I need (rather than just looking at it in the packet). Congratulations Kitty on the new arrival. Hope the bathroom fitting is going well Tracy. Hugs to all. Sue XXX
Good Morning Sue A really special card today so beautiful.Striplets seem to be so popular. Hope there will be more in your next set of dies. I just love them. Thank you so much. Jan

The roses are lovely, another one of those I don't think I need it dies that I am regretting, is moving way up the long long list. Fabulous video as always, thank you Sue Congratulations Kitty ! Hugs Muriel x
I found this beautiful little verse from my favourite poetess, Patience Strong, and it struck me that you can use it for quite a few occasions. Today I am using it for those who need an encouraging word or two.
A daily wish for you.... More gladness than sadness, More laughter than pain, More Blessings than troubles, More sunshine than rain.
Daily thoughts and ((((hugs)))) to all in discomfort, pain or loss.
Very pretty. The pansies are growing on me now lol.
Well ladies. Bathroom is no more but an empty shell bar a toilet and no sistern so had to use a bucket to flush!! Lol
Lucky for us my mom lives 5 mins up the road :-) so we can go use her shower. Tiles going on just now. At the rate they are going I don't think it's going to take the week. It is a small room tho x
Hi Sue & lovely Wilsonettes*what a delectable feast you have served up for us today Sue, I wouldn’t mind indulging in this scrumptious, delightful treat & seeing it on my card making menu any day of the week. Your gifted & talented insight of techniques, hints & tips are a welcome recipe of inspiration & stimulation with an added dash of encouragement. Two words, Thank you seems so trivial or paltry in the way of our gratitude in the stead of your exceptional generosity, but grateful we are nonetheless x x x
HETTY* (((HUGS))) to you my friend & hope that you soon feel fully recovered from the flu x x x
YVONNE G*What A palaver for you my friend, hope you were calm & collected, the situation is resolved & you are no longer sitting on the edge of your sit with gritted teeth, my how we have all been there one way or another. Thinking of you & pray you are now unclenched & smiling Lol x x x

I have restrained from a funny story today purely for your benefit , my dear friend LYNDA, as I don’t think it’s advisable to have you chuckling at this early stage my friend...I’m not sure whether I feel more sorry for yourself or your poor b**bs, I hope that will be the last time you say hello to the floor, after all it didn’t say hello back & did you the discourtesy of repaying you with bruises. Take care & (((HUGS))) for your recovery x x x
Thank you MARIA* for your welcome back x x x

Another lovely card, and featuring one of my favourite dies, I do love the striplets. Now I must be off to make a cup of tea so I can watch the video in comfort! :) Hugs to all those in need today. Paula x (WelshPaula)
Hi, Sue, Well, yet another card showing us just how versatile the striplet die is. I've put the lattice window right at the top of my wish list. I think the roses are going to have to join it as well. What fantastic colours today. The card is just beautiful. Thanks so much for the video on this one. Bejay xx
Hi Sue, Oh my, is there no end to the versatility of this striplet? Beautiful card, lovely colours and usual clear video.
June H - Happy Anniversary to you and your husband, hope you are having a good day. You will soon have to start planning something extra special for your Diamond Anniversary :-)
Lynda - hope the bruising is not too painful.
Kitty - Congratulations on the birth of your great-grandson, I hope his big sister likes him!
Beautiful card today Sue, again I have the necessary things to make this card so I must be doing something right at last, perhaps my colour of card may be slightly different but yours is lovely. Hugs to all Johanna
To My Very Special Dearest Friend Sue, Well It Was An Extremely Early Day Out Today I Was Up At 5 o'clock a.m. Watching A Repeat Of The Wonderful Julia On Hochanda, I'm Taping The Rest She Was Tremendous.

Warmest Wishes To Colin And Heather Love And Huge Hugs To Yourself Love From Sam xxx Hugs To All Wilsonettes Hugs To Lancashire Steph.
Hi Sue, love the card today, the way you use the striplet dies is lovely and extends the use of the dies so much. I'll have to start looking at my dies again and how I can use them apart from the single use - now I'm retired I will have to look at doing this as I don't have the cash to spend as I did when I had a job, frustrating but unless I win the lottery I will have to stop buying so much crafty stuff. My craft room is bulging as it is !!!!! I'll have to look at craft fairs to sell my cards I think.
Hi Sue Lovely card today and I'll be looking at the video later. I'm trying to catch up with Johns Hochanda shows at the minute. Missed yesterday's card as well, how gorgeous is that one as well.
Hi Sue. Another clever way of making more of your valuable tools, you never stop amazing me, you more than likely have all these little ideas in your mind when designing your new collections and have itchy fingers until the prototype arrives for you to play with. More 4 piece striplets please, they are brill.
With Sue's blessing and permission,I'd like to pass a message on from Tina E. After talking to an extremely distressed dear friend last night, she has asked me to thank those ladies who have been so kind a thoughtful. I mentioned just how many really kind and thoughtful ladies genuinally hurt for her and her dear family after reading the heart breaking and tragic news about baby Evie. Tina, as you can understand hasn't read her blog since leaving her last message, but I've told her that so many of you are thinking of them daily, and she has asked me to thank those of you that have been so kind in sending emails etc. Tina also sends her apologies for not being able to find the strength to thank you personally. I've told her that no-one expects her to. Their world has come to an abrupt halt for now and the week's and months ahead are going to be the hardest time as they plan to say goodnight to their 'Rainbow baby'but knowing how much support they have had has overwhelmed them. To those of you that have showed your tenderness and care,Tina thanks you so much.
Hi Sue, another beautiful card, I do like the rose border, so different. Have not yet watched the video but hopefully I will get the chance later.
To Stephanie, I am so glad that Tina has such a good friend to support her at this time, as she will certainly need it whilst trying to support Claire and the rest of her family. I am glad that you have told her that nobody would expect her to reply to emails, but I hope that the knowledge that she and her family are in our thought and prayers will help in some small way Wendyx
Hi Sue, Lovely very card and very useful video too. Great use of the striplet die - I'll have to try to remember this. Steph - thank you for contacting Tina on our behalf, I'm sure she and the family are going through Hell but it's good that she has a friend like you to fall back on. I wouldn't expect her to reply to all of the messages but I'm glad she has found some comfort in them. Xx Love and hugs to all, Alison xxxxx
Good evening Sue and everyone, not been able to post for a couple of days due to Internet problems 😕 today's card and the few I missed are all lovely. Many thanks for your continuing generosity in sharing your talent with us daily, it's sooo appreciated. Best wishes to all hugs,Theresa x
Good evening Sue. & Wilsonettes Gorgeous card & my favourite lattis window Striplet it still looks great cut down. I haven't seen the video yet But looking forward to it. Love & Hug's Lynda Brock xx Thank you Steph for contacting Tina on our behalf I can't imagine what she & all the family are going through at this sad & devastating time. God bless Evie goodnight sweetheart. TIna Claire Toby & family your allways in my thoughts & prayers love Lynda xx
BETH B thank you my friend your so kind about my very bruised b..bs.& no hopefully I won't be saying hellow to anymore floors Hug's xx FLUFFYCAT thank you also I have quit a few bruises & painfull B...bs.xx Pat L thank you for your kind thoughts xx Kitty congratulations on your new Great Grandson enjoy the cuddles xx JUNE H & your Husband happy Anniversary hope you both had a lovely day xx
Hi sue and lovely wilsonettes x Beautiful card sue x still haven't found the courage to give my die cuts the snip ! Will catch up on all the cards and videos tomorrow as have been to the country 2 country festival at the weekend so sorry I haven't commented on your lovely cards sue x Take care everyone x Theresa w xxx
Hi Sue, Beautiful card. Love the versatility of your dies and must get up courage to do some cutting like you have shown. The dusky pink colour is gorgeous too. Di B.x
Good evening Sue and the he Wilsonettes, This is a lovely card for when you want to be able to send something pretty but the cost of posting is an arm and leg when you layer it high, this gives the best of both worlds. Sorry Sue but I'm lagging behind here on the dies stakes but it doesn't stop me appreciating the beauty of dies I don't have. Thank you flower for your ever giving of you knowledge, inspiration and time, I know you enjoy yourself but oh the joy you bring to all of us at the same time. A tad tired today as I was Harry sitting last night and took him to Stirling today with me before he went into nursery and I got into trouble for not leaving him in the car for one of the girls to lift him, but I've got no one normally so I just have to get around it some way myself. I will say good night Love and crafty hugs Norah (glenochil)
Hi Sue, pretty card today. The video shows just how easy it would be to make. Thank you for making the videos, they are a great help and inspiration to me. Love and hugs, Alison D x
Another pretty card Sue, you are so creative with the dies it's amazing. Lynda, I hope you are not too sore it sounds awful. Extremely gentle hugs for you. Congratulations on the birth of your Grandson Kitty how lovely :) Tracy, I hope the bathroom is finished super quick. When the council did ours it was awful whilst they were in but it's lovely to have a shower and much easier to clean. Sorry I can't remember what else I was going to comment on. Tried crafting today but after ten minutes my back hurt too much. I don't know what to do as I don't see how crafting on my lap will work but that's the only way I would be comfortable. Ho hum that's me moaning again. I will finish by sending love to all my friends and good wishes to everyone else x
Sorry Sue Tracy forgot your Hug's & to say glad bathroom is taking shape.xx Lorraine thank you your very kind still very painfull in my chest & left knee.xx
I enjoyed watching the video, like others didn't like seeing the die cut snipped....but it looks wonderful on the card. The striplet is one of my favourites.
Happy Anniversary June H and Mr June H. I hope you had a lovely day.
Another lovely card. Looking forward to watching the video tomorrow. Congratulations on your new great-grandson, Kitty. Hope you had a happy birthday, June. Take care everyone.
Hi Sue Gorgeous pretty card, just love it... Love every element of this stunner & looks so pretty & feminine & would be suitable for so many occasions. Beautiful Roses & another must have Dei for my collection.

Morning Sue.
I am back to normal today.I was late yesterday, we just have a brand new great grandson, I was looking after his two year old big sister.
Thank you, a beautiful card and a great video,
I had to smile when you said I am using the Emma die whole, I thought no cutting up then came the striplet LOL.
Take care Kitty.
Pretty card, Sue, but lordy had a panic when you chopped up my favourite die!! Didn't realise at first that you'd used the lattice window. Altogether lovely, and thanks for the video - which provided some extra entertainment - my PC kept stopping the video whilst continuing with the sound, so ffff ffff went your aerosol glue while you were standing stock still looking at the can! Really funny.
Laine - yes would like to see all our furry friends, but B&R's confidence not yet up for standing still and posing - it'll come.

Well, yet another card showing us just how versatile the striplet die is. I've put the lattice window right at the top of my wish list. I think the roses are going to have to join it as well.
What fantastic colours today. The card is just beautiful. Thanks so much for the video on this one.

Hi Sue, love the card today, the way you use the striplet dies is lovely and extends the use of the dies so much. I'll have to start looking at my dies again and how I can use them apart from the single use - now I'm retired I will have to look at doing this as I don't have the cash to spend as I did when I had a job, frustrating but unless I win the lottery I will have to stop buying so much crafty stuff. My craft room is bulging as it is !!!!! I'll have to look at craft fairs to sell my cards I think.
Thanks for the new ideas though Sue,
Lots of love and craftihappiness everyone,

Gorgeous card Sue, love the design of this one and your choice of colours. hugs Shirleyxxxxxx
Hi Sue

Hello Sue.
Lovely Card. I agree with you, it's such a pretty card. Great dies, a lovely way to use them and pretty colour. Thanks for sharing.
Best wishes
Simply beautiful!! TFS!
Hi Sue.
Another clever way of making more of your valuable tools, you never stop amazing me, you more than likely have all these little ideas in your mind when designing your new collections and have itchy fingers until the prototype arrives for you to play with. More 4 piece striplets please, they are brill.
With Sue's blessing and permission,I'd like to pass a message on from Tina E. After talking to an extremely distressed dear friend last night, she has asked me to thank those ladies who have been so kind a thoughtful. I mentioned just how many really kind and thoughtful ladies genuinally hurt for her and her dear family after reading the heart breaking and tragic news about baby Evie. Tina, as you can understand hasn't read her blog since leaving her last message, but I've told her that so many of you are thinking of them daily, and she has asked me to thank those of you that have been so kind in sending emails etc. Tina also sends her apologies for not being able to find the strength to thank you personally. I've told her that no-one expects her to. Their world has come to an abrupt halt for now and the week's and months ahead are going to be the hardest time as they plan to say goodnight to their 'Rainbow baby'but knowing how much support they have had has overwhelmed them. To those of you that have showed your tenderness and care,Tina thanks you so much.
Beautiful card Sue, hugs Elaine x
Hi Sue, another beautiful card, I do like the rose border, so different. Have not yet watched the video but hopefully I will get the chance later.
To Stephanie, I am so glad that Tina has such a good friend to support her at this time, as she will certainly need it whilst trying to support Claire and the rest of her family. I am glad that you have told her that nobody would expect her to reply to emails, but I hope that the knowledge that she and her family are in our thought and prayers will help in some small way

Hi Sue,
Lovely very card and very useful video too. Great use of the striplet die - I'll have to try to remember this.
Steph - thank you for contacting Tina on our behalf, I'm sure she and the family are going through Hell but it's good that she has a friend like you to fall back on. I wouldn't expect her to reply to all of the messages but I'm glad she has found some comfort in them. Xx
Love and hugs to all, Alison xxxxx

Take care everyone x
Theresa w xxx
Hi Sue,
Beautiful card. Love the versatility of your dies and must get up courage to do some cutting like you have shown. The dusky pink colour is gorgeous too.

Good evening Sue and the he Wilsonettes,
This is a lovely card for when you want to be able to send something pretty but the cost of posting is an arm and leg when you layer it high, this gives the best of both worlds. Sorry Sue but I'm lagging behind here on the dies stakes but it doesn't stop me appreciating the beauty of dies I don't have. Thank you flower for your ever giving of you knowledge, inspiration and time, I know you enjoy yourself but oh the joy you bring to all of us at the same time.
A tad tired today as I was Harry sitting last night and took him to Stirling today with me before he went into nursery and I got into trouble for not leaving him in the car for one of the girls to lift him, but I've got no one normally so I just have to get around it some way myself. I will say good night
Love and crafty hugs

Gorgeous card Sue!
I have watched the video and I am always amazed at how simple you make it look!!!
Hi Sue,

Hello Sue,

Another pretty card Sue, you are so creative with the dies it's amazing.
Lynda, I hope you are not too sore it sounds awful. Extremely gentle hugs for you.
Congratulations on the birth of your Grandson Kitty how lovely :)
Tracy, I hope the bathroom is finished super quick. When the council did ours it was awful whilst they were in but it's lovely to have a shower and much easier to clean.
Sorry I can't remember what else I was going to comment on.
Tried crafting today but after ten minutes my back hurt too much. I don't know what to do as I don't see how crafting on my lap will work but that's the only way I would be comfortable. Ho hum that's me moaning again.
I will finish by sending love to all my friends and good wishes to everyone else x
Sorry Sue
Tracy forgot your Hug's & to say glad bathroom is taking shape.xx
Lorraine thank you your very kind still very painfull in my chest & left knee.xx
Hi Sue
Beautiful card yet again. Really lovely colour too.
I enjoyed watching the video, like others didn't like seeing the die cut snipped....but it looks wonderful on the card. The striplet is one of my favourites.
Happy Anniversary June H and Mr June H. I hope you had a lovely day.
