My favourite style of designs from Sue Wilson here.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Tone on tone, clean, elegant.</div>

This is done in milk and blush card. I love everything about it.</div>

I have been busy making Christmas cards recently and only managed a few 'usual' cards.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The charity I make for has had a big buyer again recently so I need to make them some more!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This card is a lovely sparkly Sue Wilson design, in one of her signature 'buckle' cards.</div>

Another of Sue Wilson's more recent shares, using the weaving die in yet another way.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used antique silver card with the pumice coloured card for a change to white. It gives a softer look and imo goes well with silver.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Possibly a good card for a male recipient.</div>

When i saw Sue Wilson's original of this card I was a little daunted, but when i made this I was surprised that it wasn't too difficult! Just a lot of lovely decoration.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I got the sentiment stamp as an individual at Ally Pally.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Not having any string pearls in cream i used some distress glitter in linen on the edge of the sentiment, and used some gold paper for the flowers which i found easier to manipulate. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
In Sue Wilson's original of this she used a different sentiment but it would be too large for my version so i used this one.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i don't have any silver texture paste so i mixed some gunmetal with polar white.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The thin ribbon is tinted grey with the new grey distress ink.</div>

A little splicing through the center and you have a new shape!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Sue Wilson showed how to achieve this very simply.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Even the central shape around the sentiment is a cut-down die cut.</div>

I followed a tip for the weaving dies by using pins and pinning each strip on my piercing mat as I progressed. The outcome is much easier!</div>
