Good Sunday morning all! I thought it was time for a nice clean and simple card and this one definitely fits the bill! I started by cutting the Cascading Leaves diagonally across a piece of coconut white card. Next I used a selection of Pixie Powders on a separate piece of white card. I used Burnt Orange, Aubergine Dream and Olive Green to get those autumnal colours for my leaves. I glued this piece behind the leaf aperture I cut. Next I cut the outline in black and glued it back into the aperture opening, giving the leaves more shape. I cut the sentiment in black from the Mix and Match Friendship Sentiment set and glued it below the leaves. I added it on to a larger white mat then added my pierced white mat and a final white mat to complete the card. The finished dimensions are 7 1/4" x 7 3/4" in size.

Morning Sue. Adorable. My all time favourite cards to make are CAS cards. I find them peaceful and serene, they almost seem to change a busy whirlwind mind into to a relaxed state if you get my meaning ? Everything about this sample is beautiful the colours used and design, a beautiful and peaceful way to start the way.
Congratulations to all the winners above enjoy playing with your gift.
Love and restful peaceful hugs coming your way Sue xxx

Hi Sue,
Beautiful card. I love CAS cards and this one is a stunner. The pixie powder colours you have chosen for the leaves are fabulous.
Congratulations to the lucky winners today and also to the winner yesterday.
Sorry I haven't commented the last couple of days but found out someone has 'cloned' my nankcard and has been using it. Needless to say I was very upset at this! Anyway, it has been stopped and I have had the money back by the bank but it really shook me. So I am now waiting for a new card. Don't know how it's happened, all I can think is it was somewhere in Newcastle or Durham.
Pam, hope you are ok xx
Elaine hope you are ok and that Andrew is getting his treatment that he needs - no need to apologise xxxx
Rosemary hope you are ok too xx
Donita hope you are having a good time with your dad x
Sending love and hugs to all, Alison xxxx

To My Wonderful Dear Friend Sue,
I Loved This Exceptional Die Set When You Released It In November 2017 As Part Of Your Autumnal Collection
Also You Shared This Particular Card, But Today’s Blog You’ve Shared More Details With Us, For Example Which
Of “The Exceptional Pixie Powders” You’ve Used Also You’ve Explained More How You Achieved Your Magical Card.
Magnificent Products Used In Today’s Card ✨
“Creative Expression Coconut White/Black Foundation Card”
“Creative Expression Cosmic Shimmer Specialists Dries Clear Acrylic Glue”
“Creative Expression Mounting Foam”
“Creative Expression Cosmic Shimmer Remarkable Pixie Powders Burnt Orange/Aubergine Dream/Olive Green”
Magnificent Cutting Dies Used In Today’s Card ✨
“Sue Wilson’s Cascading Leaves 🍁 Die Set” (From The Finishing Touches Collection 2 Cutting Dies)
“Sue Wilson’s Mix/Match Friendship Die Set” (From The Expression Collection 11 Cutting Dies Outstanding Collection)
You Started Today’s Card By Cutting “The Cascading Leaves 🍁 Die Set” Diagonally Across A Piece Of
“Coconut White Foundation Card” Creating A Aperture, Then You Used A Separate Piece Of “Coconut White Foundation Card”
Where You Used Your Magical “Pixie Powders” In “Burnt Orange/Aubergine Dream/Olive Green” This Gives You That
Exceptional Autumnal Colour You Required, You Then Glued This Behind Your Leaves 🍁 Aperture Next You Cut Out
“The Cascading Leaves” 🍁 Outline In “Black Foundation Card” Then You Glued This Into The Aperture Which Brings
“The Cascading Leaves” 🍁 Alive........... (It’s Just Shows You What Adding Black Card Can Do To Your Superb Creation)
You Cut Your Beautiful Sentiment Out Of “Black Foundation Card” From “The Mix/Match Friendship Die Set”
Sue, You Then Added Your Card To A Larger “Coconut White Frame” Using “Mounting Foam” Then You Added
This To Your “Famous/Signature/Piercing Plus A White Mat/Layer Simply Divine, Extremely Impressive.
Like Everyone I Just Love Those Exceptional “Pixie Powders”
Take Great Care My Wonderful Dear Friend Sue,

Hi Sue
What a beautiful card today, the pixie powder background is lovely behind the leaves. I introduced my sister to them before Christmas, she isn't a huge card maker but wanted something to play with, she enjoyed herself so much she went back to the craft shop and bought some more! I think she's hooked.
Love Diane G xxx
Pam I hope you are ok, it's not the same without you at the top. Xxx
Elaine and Rosemary sending hugs xxx

What a lovely card. X
CAS, Fabulous card Sue!xx
Hello Sue,
A really lovely card today which does appeal to me a lot. I don’t have that Die but have the other leaves . Maybe I could try something a bit similar with them.
We have had the family here today so it’s been a busy one but with lots of fun and laughter too.
I was wishing I had Pam’s email address Doreen, but sadly I don’t. I do hope she is alright.
Elaine and Rosemary, thinking of you ! Yvonne and Laine too and many others.
Donita - glad you arrived safely! Sorry it’s a bit chilly!
Congratulations to today’s winners and yesterday’s . I’m sorry I was distracted last night and forgot.
Love to all,
Myra (( Friend of Maureen) xx
Love this!
A beautiful, clean and simple card. Love it!

To Sue and All,
I wonder how this would look with the leaf apertures cut into a fall color instead of into white. Or a brilliant blue. We don't usually see fall leaves against snow. Don't take it so literally, some would say.
This card really doesn't take much Pixie Powdered paper, does it? You can make a lot of these with one sheet of Pixies.
Sure hope we hear from Pam soon.
Love,
Donita
Thanks, very good

Lovely card. Must check my pixie powders as I think there is at least one colour you've used. Sue, that I haven't seen before.
Pam, hope you are o.k. and back here soon. We're lost without you at the top of the page.
Congratulations to the comment game winners Crafty Chris, Lianne and Karen Lotty.

Hi Sue,
don't know what happened to my Sunday morning but I appear to have missed this post/lovely CAS. It takes a lot of courage and self-belief to stick to the 3 basic elements. Colours are gorgeous.
