Hi bloggers! I made a piece of caught in crystal for my background. To do this, I used a piece of
clear acetate and used clear
Cosmic Lacquer on it then sprinkled
Pixie Sparkles (Pale Blush and Coral Crush) then covered it with a piece of scrunched up white tissue paper and allowed it to dry thoroughly. I cut two of the
Stella's Borders in white and added the Pixie Sparkle piece and the two borders on to a larger piece of white card. I stamped and cut two of the
Spring Roses and Daffodils Stampcuts. Using Distress Markers, I coloured both of them and attached them in opposite corners with mounting foam. I cut the Just For you sentiment in black twice and stacked them then glued it to the centre of the card. I completed the card with white and black mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6" x 9" in size.
Unfortunately, my wifi signal did not behave yesterday! If you tuned in to see my demos, I really appreciate it and hopefully I will have better luck the next time I try to demo via a zoom link. All for now. Sue x

Sure Gwen and the sample makers will do you proud Sue ! it was still lovely to see you make a start via zoom. x
This is absolutely gorgeous Sue, the caught in crystal background is just the most beautiful colour and highlights Stella's sheer delicacy with the Stampcuts adding a floral touch this sample is gorgeous. 6pm is a busy meal time here so I have you tucked up all snug in my black craft box so I'll catch you later and I know whatever the wifi did it wouldn't spoil it for me so take care and stay safe xxx
Stunning card Sue xx
Morning Sue.
It was such a shame the zoom cut you off
at least we could see you looking so well.
Todays card is so very pretty thank you.
You have two brilliant demonstraters in
Jamie and Gwen looking forward to todays shows.
Take care stay safe and have fun Kitty.
Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, another gorgeous colourful creation, the background is amazing, so vibrant and the embossing folder to mount it on with the stampcut flowers, well you know you are onto a winner with this one.
It was a shame about the broadband connection, but we did manage to see you, these things happen beyond our control.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
Morning Sue, todays card certainly does have the wow factor, the colours are gorgeous. Technology can be so annoying, and we all understand. Take care and stay safe everyone. Bx

KEEP SAFE
I really tried to watch you last evening but was not able to do so. I have never used Zoom
anyway I thought it was my PC that was the problem and almost decided to stay in bed this morning. So glad I didn't
Good morning Sue, a gorgeous card . It was such a shame that the internet connection didn't want to play last night but it was lovely to see you looking so well even if only for a short time. Gwen had a back up demonstration and I am looking forward to seeing her demonstrations today.

Pretty card I love doing caught in crystal After all of your hard work and for the wifi to fail must have been so frustrating for you Hopefully the next time will be better My day was similar trying to get a connection to be able to work It was a “get ready to throw laptop out of window” day
Take care
Hello Sue, a lovely vibrant card to bring a smile especially as the weather is still rather miserable. It was lovely to see you yesterday,even for a short time, you look so well. Gwen and Jamie are both really good at showing your products . Will watch Gwen today xx
Gorgeous card today - really love the colours :))
Good Morning Sue.Such a beautiful card this morning Sue and gorgeous colours. I love this background ... but I don't think I would be able to do the caught in Crystal background like you do Sue. So I will stick to my trusted pixie powders till I think I am ready to have a go. Thankyou Sue
SO EXITED TODAY. My line dance classes are back on. Starting this afternoon ... We are allowed to have ten dancers in the room at any one time. So we have had to split the class and have two sessions . Ohhh I can't wait to see all my ladies again and have a great time. Is this the turning point ... I hope ... That we are getting back to normal
Sending hugs and best wishes to everyone who needs them today
PLEASE KEEP STAYING SAFE 🙏 🙏 🙏.
Kind regards Ann Toppcards Leeds

Good morning Sue,
A beautiful card today, sorry technology wasn't kind to you yesterday. Yvonne xx
Hi Sue. What a pretty card today, made so easy with the stamp cuts. It was a shame that you weren't able to transmit any demos yesterday, especially as you had probably done so much preparation.

Hi Sue
Gorgeous card, love the colours for the caught in Crystal background. Such a shame about the connection last night. After all you hard work preparing for the show too. Still good to see you though.
Ann, so pleased for you and the line dancing classes being back on. I’m sure you’ll enjoy. My Zumba classes resumed last Wednesday. I can honestly say I smiled all the way through! Looking forward to tomorrow’s class. Hope you don’t ache much tomorrow. X

Hi Sue, beautiful card and technique. Yes it's a shame the internet let you down yesterday, but we did get to see some of the demonstration, if not all of it. As you say, hopefully next time will be better. WakeyL
what a shame about your zoom not behaving itself, we all know what that is like. A pretty card, love the stamp cuts.
Hi Sue and everyone I love this caught in crystal technique, but have never tried it yet. Beautiful card today as always Sue.
I've not tried to watch the shows yet as I was so tired and aching after work yesterday, they are all being recorded, ready for me to watch today. Hopefully I will get a bit of crafting in too.
So sorry that your shows didn't go as planned I was really looking forward to seeing you. Im sure Gwen has done you proud and the design team.
Nice to see some of you returning to normal activities and hugs today whatever life throws your way.

Hi Sue, a really lovely card. The colours of the caught in crystal background are gorgeous and I love the colouring on the Spring Roses and Daffodils stampcut. Yes it was disappointing that your connection dropped out before you were able to finish the show but it was lovely to see you for the time that we did. Catching up with Gwen's early morning show and they are showing a clip of you from yesterday :-)

Hi Sue,
such a stunning card for today. I love the combination of Pixie Sparkles, what a gorgeous effect.
I was most disappointed when you were cut off yesterday, you must have been bitterly disappointed, too. From what we've seen of you, you look pretty good and next time it might be better, - the trials and tribulations of technology.............
Hugs

Hello Sue snd all
Absolutely beautiful Sue, the caught in crystal is lovely as are the stamps and borders. I have been MIA the last few days, total knee replacement coming up and every now and then it really goes on me - so painful. Just the usual wait for specialist. I have to go back and read about zoom now, really miss your demos Sue.
