as i love to read them & i always answer them,but if you just want to take a look
that's fine too.Thank you Lynda
I started with a 8 x 8 card base Embossed it with CREATIVE EXPRESSIONS
FROSTY SWIRLS FOLDER BY SUE WILSON.
I cut SUE WILSON'S ITALIAN COLLECTION BACKGROUND DIE
added a sticky sheet to the back & exposed the sticky on the front covered it with
COSMIC SHIMMER GLITTER JEWELS EBONY ICE.
I cut SUE'S ANGEL DIE ONCE IN BLACK & ONCE IN WHITE, then glued them together shadowing her,then glued her to the base card. I then cut some of SUE'S POINSETTIA'S cut the complete in white & the filigree in black.I cut the HAPPY CHRISTMAS DIE Also one white & one black & shadowed them as well.( free in a magazine ) Glued them in place.
then printed a sentiment from computer cut it out with BASIC SET A.
& again in black again shadowing them.Cut more poinsettia's & glued to the side.
Thank you for stopping by & I hope you like my new card.
I will post a new one Wednesday

Hi Lynda, what a gorgeous card. I don't have the poinsettias so I must get them, they are beautiful. Love the Angel.
ReplyDeleteHugs Theresa (TOB)xx
Thank you Theresa,your so kind pleased you like it. I love the Angel die but must say it takes at least 6 attempts pluss shims to cut her out in both the GC & Ebosser. Keep warm love Lynda xx
DeleteOh Wow Lynda this is sensational the angel looks wonderful you really are showing off Sue's dies to their full potential and the poinsettia is really beautiful too. Just in case you have not realised I really like this card! lol

Good eavening Margaret did you like my card
ReplyDeleteHaha. After 6 attempts cutting each of them Arrrr
I am emailing you about this problem.
I must say its worth all the effort though she is gorgeous & the poinsettias.
Love Lynda xx
Hi Lynda. Hope you dont mind another Wilsonette joining you. I noticed you had a blog when I just visited Sandra's blog.
ReplyDeleteWOW... Your cards are amazing, sooo pretty and you show Sue's dies to perfection. I will try and pop in on a regular basis if you dont mind, I have such a long 'to do' list at the moment (which seems to grow each day) but please dont think Ive lost interest or dont like your work if I miss a day or so its just that my head will have exploded ! Lol.
Cant wait to see the next card you show.
Take care.

Hi Steph it so lovely to see you & of course I don't mind you looking at my cards,thank you for your lovely comments your so kind.You always seem so busy with doing your market cards & I'm so pleased that you are able to sell them,it must make all your hard work worth while. I love reading your posts on Sue's blog you make me smile especially with the gilding flakes & sticky sheets.
DeleteI actually thought of you when I was making this one with the sticky !! sheets & black glitter :0)) Your always welcome Steph any time your passing & don't worry just pop in when you can.
Love & Hugs Lynda xx
Hope Lyra is behaving x
Wow Lynda what a festive treat, I can't believe it takes 6 passes in the EBosser, I thought that machine cut EVERYTHING in one pass ( if you believe the hype), it says no need for shims! My you it us pointless the grand Calibur having a A4 plate a the only proper cutting area is down the edge of the plate! Sorry rant over! Lynda you always finish your cards off so nicely inside, it makes such a difference!
ReplyDeleteSending you a big hug,

Hi Sandra, rant away I also have to put the poinsettias through quite a few times.in both G C & E Bosser.Margaret has the same problem Have you had any trouble with your dies Sandra.
DeleteI have ordered some M Boss spray it was shown on C& C you lightly spray the card & leave for 30 sec.then put die in middle of plate with card run it through once but takes no more than two passes.So will let you know if it works. Thank you for you lovely comments.Hope you had good day with Sue.& don't forget craft tomorrow away no stressing while Paul's away.you will be fine my friend.
Love & Big Hugs Lynda xxxxx
Lynda, you seem to have a die like I had that you spend that much time trying to get it to cut everything out you just want to give up. I returned my die in the end and it turned out the die was faulty. Your card is beautiful. I have not posted as I seem to be only making gift bags every spare minute. Take care, we are getting terrible weather, thought I'd have to turn back tonight rather than take Beth to her horse vaulting, but it eased off but tomorrow dose not sound good. Hazel x
ReplyDeleteHi Hazel,I have a few of Sue's dies & most of them take a good few passes like the poinsettias
ReplyDeleteMargaret has the same problem.
You leave me such nice comments. Your gift baskets & bags are gorgeous Hazel.
We also have bad weather its really very windy.
& just started pouring down.
Hugs Lynda xxxx
Hi Lynda,You are amazing how you put this card together. The angel is lovely "trapped in the web" on the Italian background and those poinsettias are just gorgeous. Love the black and white theme The inside of the card is wonderful. Have been playing a little bit for a b.card for my sister-in-law ,1 Jan. But can't make many cutouts until I give up as it takes so many turns on my cuttlebug :-( and you seem to have the same problem on your machines. Have thought about saving up for the new GC, not sure yet. Hope you had a lovely time with the boys not least little Harry <3 Were down to London yesterday and the drive back was horrible, rainy and windy and then today we had sunshine, clear sky but felt very cold so I had a nice walk this morning, it felt sooo good!
ReplyDeleteWarm Hugs Maria x
Hi Maria,thank you your so kind with you comments on my card,yes the Angel dose take so many passes,I do sometimes feel like giving up :( But loved the result in the end. The poinsettias also take a few passes. I thought it was just me & the Ebosser but GC the same,now you have same with cuttlebug.
ReplyDeleteWe had a lovely day With Harry Sunday lots of cuddles & smiles. Then at my daughters Tuesday for my big grandson Joseph as will be 10 on the 18 th they went away yesterday to Florida & by son is also away today to Egypt.
So hubby & me are home alone 😂
We have just got back from a lovely walk with the 4 paws x 2,the sun was out but very cold.
Toasty hugs Lynda xx
