Hi crafters! I have been having a play with some gilding polish for today's card! I started by cutting the
Abigail die into the card twice in a diamond orientation. I overlapped them in the centre so there was so over cut area that needed to be covered. I backed it in black so the design would show up nicely. Next I cut the
Claire die out of black card and backed it in white. I used
Golden Treasure gilding polish on a piece of card, allowed it a few minutes to dry well then cut the outer decorative shape from the
Claire die and glued it on top. I seated it in the centre of the card, covering up the over cut area created by the
Abigail die. I cut the circle for the centre of the card and used the gilding polish lightly around the edge to frame the
Thank you mini expression, which I cut in black and glued into the centre. I used the remainder of the card that I added gilding polish to in order to cut the flowers. I used the
Striped Nasturtiums for this. I cut the coordinating decorative top out of black card. I glued them all together then offset them and seated them around in opposite corners. I used white
Fern Fronds as accents. White and black card was used to complete the card. The finished dimensions are 7" x 9" in size. All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue, firstly all categories that you and CE have been nominated for in the 2018 British craft awards have been voted for and I really want you all to get what you very much deserve.
Now for this eye popping sample, it's stunning,not only the way you've cut into the card but that guilding polish makes it look SO expensive and the way it stands with the black, wow it's stunning Sue. Have Lisa's shows on record to keep her wonderful tips for when my Rose Flower die arrives and I can't wait to play, like a child with a new toy lol. Thanks for sharing this beautiful sample Sue. Have a really lovely day xxx
Hi Sue,
So excited to see a posting featuring your latest die release. Striking and dramatic is how I would describe this beauty done in black and gold. The gilding polish really accentuates the Claire die and the flowers are stunning. The Claire and the Abigail die sets are two of my favorites from this release.
Have a wonderful day.
Beverly

Hi Sue
This is a beautiful card and the gilding polish just makes all the difference.
Treasure Gold gilding polish is the best there is as it doesn't dry out unlike Cosmic Shimmer.
I have had mine for years and it's still creamy.

What a lovely card. Ideal for a male celebration etc. Thanks Sue xx

Hi Sue, a beautiful card and a clever way to use gilding polish. The Golden Treasure is such a rich colour and is missing from my stash - I will have to rectify that very soon. I think Marie P and maybe some others are confusing Gilding Polish and Gilding Wax, perhaps you could demonstrate the differences some time? I love the newer polishes but still occasionally go back to the waxes mainly for a particular colour.
Frances
Hi Sue, such a lovely card today. I love how you have used the dies and the gilding polish just finishes it off beautifully.
Barbara V
Really lovely card “thank you”!

Oh Sue this is a stunning card those dies are gorgeous and you have used them so beautifully. Enjoy the rest of the day. Take care. Hugs Jackie
A beautiful card. Love the gilding polish .
How lovely - really like this card and how you have made it, Sue. Thank you very much.
What a contrast from the last three cards. While the other three were very feminine I think this one is more masculine. Love the way you have cut into the back of the card & over lapped the pattern. Thank you Sue.
Another beautiful card sue love the guilding polish. Laura o Springfield

An absolutely outstanding card Sue, that gilding polish just adds a special touch to it...a superb finished card, love it....luv Ursula xx

Hi Sue,
I didn't realize how beautiful Abigail die is till now. Love the way you have used it. And Claire won my heart the moment I saw it during of your recent release. Even I am not a big fan of black, I have to admit that I love it on this card and I love everything about this card. Thank you for bringing back the Striped Nasturtiums. The Golden Treasure gilding polish really make them pop and gives the card expensive look.Beautiful.
