Hi crafters! I have a shadow box card for you up first today. I started by cutting the
Christmas Shadow Box out of
vintage silver card. I added mounting foam to raise it and create all the cubby hole areas. I embossed a piece of
coconut white card with the
Twinkle Twinkle embossing folder and added it to the back to show through the boxes. I added a row of silver and gold ornaments to the top section. I cut the
Rustic Twig Wreath out of gold card and glued it in the largest area slightly off set then added my die cut sentiment in silver over it. I cut the tree in gold and decided to mount it up over the long thin section on foam. I added small gold and silver ornaments to it. I cut a wide frame using the
Stitched Lattice Frames out of white card covered with a
self adhesive sticky sheet. I peeled the backing paper off and coated it with
Iced Snow for a frosty feel. I completed the card with white mats and thin gold and silver ones in between. The finished dimensions are 7 1/4" x 8 1/4" in size. Scroll down for card number two.
The second card was a bit of a lark as I finished the card above, I noticed that the fallaway pieces sort of looked like they ,might make a nice door! I embossed the background using the
Wild Poinsettia embossing folder to give it some texture. Next I used the fallaway bits from the
Shadow box die, but cut it several more times to get a few more bits to stack up so it looked like a door with panels to it. I cut the
Rustic Twig Wreath for the top of the door and added a small holly to it (from the Shadow Box die). I added a sentiment to the bottom part of the door (it is still a card afterall! LOL). I cut one of the ornaments from the shadow box and nipped off the top to use as a doorknob. The card was completed with white and vintage gold mats for a very clean and simple look. The finished dimensions are 6 1/4" x 8 1/4" in size. All for now, Sue x

Morning Sue, two gorgeous cards today both equally gorgeous.
Nancyd xx
Wonderful cards, so lovely, love both.
Jean, congratulations on your expected granddaughter, something to look forward to.
June, great news from your consultant, you deserve a pressie for that.
Tina, glad Peter is okay, that means you are okay too.
Elaine, hope Andrew is still well.
Lorraine, your retreat with Anne Marie sounds fantastic, I have watched her craft shows and she is a wonderful designer, all those twigs, flowers etc.
The cough is starting to settle a bit, but the cold hits it straight away. Back at Respiratory Clinic on 12th to see Consultant or one iof team.
Lynda, how are you doing.
Tracey, don't overdo it at this busy time, get some help if you need it.
Sharon and daughter, hope you are both improving.
Hugs to all, poorly or missing friends too
Two beautiful,stylish cards. Love them both.
Two beautiful cards today. Love them both.
Happy crafting.

Both cards are beautiful again today Sue. Like the simple elegance of second one. . In the throes of card making yesterday and my machine stopped working. Back to my original Zippy mate and smaller dies! I used to be annoyed it was so heavy but those solid parts don't break! Have a wonderful day.

Love both these cards today but my favourite is the second one. Such a good idea as "house" cards can be used on many occasions! Thank you!
Maggie B xx
Yay it's Friday!!!! Double dose of inspiration..
Love both the cards. You have thought outside the box again in seeing something from the "waste"

Karen xx
Two beautiful cards Sue. Love them both
Marion S xx
Wow two great cards Sue and I love them both for different reasons. the colours, shapes and design make two very good cards.
The dies are fabulous and there can be many combinations for the Shadow Box die, which is so clever of you to design,
thank you so much.
Morning Sue. When is a door not a door ? When it's part of shadow box bits ! See this is what I mean about artistic imagination Sue. I see the fall away as card shapes to cut small flowers from you see them as a possible door for another card - amazing imagination and very clever, do you think you may have been given my share of this special gift, maybe I was too far back in line when it was being given out lol. Both samples are beautiful, of course they are, but I love the simplicity of the 'lark card' the shadow box card just proves my point from yesterday's comment, so easy to use with lots n lots of variations. I'm so glad my festive card rush is behind me now, and as we are not giving many at all this year I may only have two or three to do. I can't believe we got our first card yesterday lol !! 1st December and a card already !!!
Well that's me done apart from sending my usual hug, and look forward to tomorrow's post from you. Have a good day. Hugs to Sam also xxx
Two lovely cards ,good use of the waste for the second card
Morning Sue.
Two lovely cards Thank you.
You are so clever sometimes i may see another shape but not very often.
Take care and have fun Kitty.
Hello Sue, two amazing cards love them both, great use of some of your incredible die designs. Have a great day all. Bx
Hi Sue
Two stunning Christmas cards, I am nearing then end of making mine and I've got some birthday cards to do before I can put my stash away till February, I so miss my dining table working on kitchen work tops is not easy.
Sorry I've been missing, so I will send congratulations to all winners I've missed I have tried to leave messages but my phone keeps crashing when I press publish, a huge thank you to all who have left messages and comments, Mick has had his Rig for over 2 weeks and is going well on monday he was weighed for the first time since September and is now 10st 2lb so a gain of 2 st, on Tuesday was not feeling too good so no extra food, Wednesday no better so our Macmillan nurse said to call Gp he came out and told us he has a chest infection so on antibiotics he's having issues with his breathing so hoping antibiotics kick in quick he hasn't eaten since Monday but I'm not too worried as he gets over 2 thousand calories a night in his feed and while he sleeps I can add extra fluids.
I send huge hugs to everyone and although I don't get on very often I am thinking about you all
Happy crafting
Love and huge hugs
Love Tina xxxxx
Hi Sue,
Love the Christmas cards, and great idea to use the fall away pieces for the second card.
Thanks for sharing
Maggie
Good morning Sue
It's funny how we all see different things in each die, the door is such a clever idea! I have this shadow box guess what I'll be doing over the weekend? Lol! I love the little accessories within the Christmas shadow box die set especially the garland and ornaments they are so cute.
I love both cards and as usual can't choose a favourite.
Hugs x

2 lovely cards Sue. Think the 2nd one is my favourite.
Hi Sue
Two great Friday cards, the second one comes out tops for me.
Jan x
Good morning Sue. I love Christmas Friday double days, I need all the inspiration I can get. The shadow box is beautiful and I wish I had the ingredients to do this but the way you've used the "waste" pieces to make the second one is inspired. Hugs to all. Sue xxx
Hi Sue and crafters all,
Thank you for today's twofer, lovely idea using the waste for number 2, I love the shadow box. Just made different versions of no 1 putting in the lights John had on a show in, they are for special people!!!!
Pam - we hope your chest is not to tight and uncomfortable, keep warm.
June Smith - glad the consultant is pleased with your progress.
NannaTina - hope Mick starts to pick up with his antibiotics you have had a tough time like me.
My Peter has slept better the last couple of nights now his antibiotics and anti sickness tablets have kicked in. He ate his stew and dumplings that he requested yesterday for tea. Appetite still not great but at least he is eating and drinking now.
Love and crafty hugs to all.
Tina T xxxx

Morning Sue, Two fabulous cards, the first one is stunning, and the second one is a revelation, I absolutely love how you have used the fall away pieces to form the panelled door, and with the wreath added, looks absolutely fabulous, you are a genius !!
Lots of love from Patricia xx
Two beautiful cards
Really like both cards today, Sue - the first a really grown-up shadow box and the second inspired! Must sit on hands as have loads of unused Christmas dies, and know they won't be getting an outing (again) this year. Only making 2 specials, despite my NY resolution. Ah well, nearly Jan 1st again!! Sure comes round quickly.
Lorraine F, good to see you back, sounds as though you're feeling better.
Nanna Tina, poor Mick still struggling, but he has more weight to work with now. Might seem an odd thing to say, but extra weight certainly helped Mr P's eventual cancer remission when he couldn't eat for so long.
Tracy - go girl, but not too fast! Pleased you're back in flower heaven.
Well wishes and hugs.
'P' in Wales
Hello Sue
I do love the first one and have used this shadow box die to make my main cards, now I know what to do with all the waste.
Morning Sue ,two beautiful cards I think the wreath looks stunning thanks for sharing Gloria (Sidcup) xx
Wonderful card Sue... I don't have these dies but I sure must do something about that! The entire Shadow Box collection is superb. Regards... Angie
I do enjoy the Christmas twofers, will miss them!! Have just mad 2 shadow box cards, must try the door!!
Doreen x
Stunning cards today sue love them both the shadow box is wow !!!!!!! Thank you
Love June horrocks xxxxxx
I like these shadow box dies more each time I see them, Sue. Two great cards but I have to say that the second one is so clever and stylish that it is my favourite.
Anne (Northampton)
Hi Sue,
Love both of these - again, amazing how much detail is in the tiny diecuts that come with the shadow box and the "door" card is truly inspiring and easy to do even for anyone who does not have any shadow box dies as the rectangles would be so simple to cut.
Izzy
Hi Sue - two more brilliant uses of the shadow box dies. I just love the way you have used the 'left over' pirces from the first card - yet more ideas for next year's cards! Best wishes

Hi Sue,
both cards are lovely. Clever use of the fallaway pieces, I wouldn't have thought of that.
Hugs, Rose
Morning Sue, two great cards, I love the way that you have made the second card out of the fall-away pieces from the first card, and you would never know. Great.
Wendyx
Hi Sue,
Two beautiful cards, great idea to make the door with the wreath on and it uses the fall away pieces. Hoping to get some more of my Christmas cards made today.
Thanks for sharing,

Spoilt for choice today Sue, love them both. If I had to choose it would be the second one using the fall away pieces.
VC x
Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, 2 lovely cards today and how clever of you to spot the door, brilliant, you are so talented. I think I prefer no. 2 just for this reason.
Tina T and Mick, lovely to hear from you and quite understand that you have had lots of your mind, you know we are all thinking of you both, wow 2st that is brilliant, not so good about the chest infection though but they are onto it quick so hopefully the antibiotics will have kicked in quickly, sending special hugs to you both.
Sharon, I am sure the Dr. can help regarding the cold, and good luck for next week, I am sure you will get a good report back, hugs and keep hobbling. xx
Jean, congratulations on your expected granddaughter, something to look forward to.
Lorraine, oh I am so envious of you going on the retreat with Anne Marie, both her and Tim are so lovely, say hello from me to her please if you remember. I was luck enough to go to another retreat and she was doing a workshop on it, boy oh boy she is amazing and we made some beautiful creations.
Special hugs to Tina, Peter, Elaine, Andrew, Lynda, Tracey and an extra special one for my friend Theresa G, and anyone else I have forgotten.
Pam hope all goes well at the Respiratory Clinic on 12th xx
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
Hi Sue,
Two brilliant cards this morning. The second one is inspired - I would never have thought of using fallaway pieces like this! However, the first one is my favourite. As I said yesterday, I love the shadow box dies. Love and hugs to all Alison xxx

Hello Sue.
Two Lovely Card. I like the first because it is a shadow box, lol. and I like the colour combination. I like the second because it is so different and I like clean and simple. Thanks for sharing.
Best wishes
Good Morning Sue & Gang,
I am loving the shadow box. I received this die set in the mail just yesterday and I can not wait to try it out. That was my plan for today and here is inspiration. I know my cards won't be as great as yours but with these dies I know I can make pretty cards that will be enjoyed by family and friends.
The second card gets an A+ for creativity.
Thank you!

Another fab double day but the first one wins hands down...but both beautiful
Hello Sue,
Beautiful cards today, but number 2 is my favourite.
Love and good wishes to all who are poorly, and Pam hope the old chest settle down soon, good luck for the 12th, I'm sure to forget nearer the time.
Maureen xx
Oh Sue, I just love...love...love you shadow box cards and this Christmas one is so beautiful. I'm really going to have to get my act together in the new year and make a list of the die sets I'm definitely going to treat myself to. Just back from the vet and although the sun is out it's turned bitterly cold. I was so pleased to get home and I think Minx was too, he's now cuddled up next to the dog, I love it when cats and dogs get along so well. Back again next week gorgeous his dreaded snip and he's getting chipped at the same time, poor lamb, he's only tiny lol.
Bejay xx
Both beautiful, but I am so taken with the shadowbox card! I love all the possibilities of using this die for so many themes!
Hi Sue, two gorgeous cards today. Only someone with your inspirational capacity would be able to see what you saw. Brilliant idea.

Two lovely cards.

Lovely cards again - I do love the shadow box dies. Many thanks.
Hello Sue,
I'm so sorry I didn't comment yesterday !! I loved the card! I've become a big fan !!
I also love today's cards. The door is an ingenious idea and I almost asked you a while ago if you had thought about a door! I will be making a few of these I think! Thank you so much for the idea.
I've been a bit at sixes and sevens this week but I'm catching up !!
Love to all,
Myra xxx
Two lovely cards Sue. Hard to choose but I think no 2 just had the edge for me
I just love those shadow boxes - must add them to my ever expanding Christmas list.
Gorgeous cards again Sue, I do love the shadow box dies I can see so many possibilities.xx
gorgeous christmas cards Sue

Hi Sue, two great cards and I love the shadow box one of course, but I am really taken with your door. I can't think of anyone else who would look at the fall-out and see a door - you are amazing. I am hoping to make several shadow box cards over the week-end so am grateful for yet more inspiration.
Laine & PP - both missing, I hope you haven't worn each other out lol.
Frances
Two very lovely cards Sue. Received my first shadow box die recently so must try it out this weekend to see whether i can find a door!!!!
Great inspiration. Xx
Nice little rustic shadow box card. The door card is simply inspired.

Good evening lovely Sue and her crafty crew!
Ooh, i do love Christmas themed twofer Fridays! You provide us with the tools and inspiration to create our own attempts at your marvels....the festive season is intense for a card maker and you can easily find yourself running out of ideas, not with your blog though! I cant thank you enough for helping me to resuscitate my failing mojo with delights such as today's offerings. Both cards are a revelation, particularly the second....we can always rely on you to think outside the (shadow) box:-)
I loved your first card so much that i got out my own shadow box and had a play at recreating it...I didn't have any silver card so I substituted it for black and it worked out rather well thankfully. Boy, those tiny baubles can be fiddly but well worth the effort, i loved dressing the mini tree and the larger baubles are gorgeous when embossed. I planned to give the sentiment some dimension by layering it a few times but got myself into a sticky pickle, it was fine putting the happy element together but the ornate christmas wording was another kettle of fish altogether...i think that it may be easier cutting them apart and sticking separately next time....i admitted defeat somewhat prematurely and just used one in the end.
Doing your card represented a change of plan for me today, i had intended to go shopping but my Mum has developed a chest infection and had a bit of a temperature so we decided to give it a miss until tomorrow. Felt i needed to do something constructive so whipped together a card before watching Escape to the Country...a guilty pleasure!
Frances, no, I haven't been worn out by Yvonne thankfully, we haven't conversed since Saturday and i have fully recovered from the ordeal now:-) We were going to chat today but have postponed it because i was meant to be going out...that's my excuse and i'm sticking to it! She has been suffering from her hectic social life hence her absence from the blog, hopefully she'll be back to her bitter, self absorbed best sometime soon:-)
Tina, what wonderful news about Mick, 2 st is a huge improvement, i'm so glad the peg is working well. I hope the antibiotics help soon though so that he can start eating again.
Lynda, how are you recovering after your operation, hope you are wellxxx
Maria, sending hugs
Yvonne, Sorry we had to cancel this afternoon, i hope you're feeling better today though and back to your catty best:-) Speak soon honeyxx
Wheely, hope you are well, and Billyxxx

Hi Sue
I just love every the shadow box card you've made. Prefer that one to the second I'm afraid. But if we all liked the same sort of thing.
Hello Sue
Two beautiful cards today!
I love your great idea of creating the Door Card with the waste from the Shadow box die!
Thanks to Lorraine (laine1972) for mentioning me in dispatches! I am still feeling the effects of the car accident but hopefully should start to improve next week as it is time to start searching for a new car!

Two beautiful cards, I have been having a lovely time with my Christmas shadow box dies and love the colours you have used but the simplicity of the wreath card is just perfect. More inspiration thank you Sue,
