August Card Challenge - Sue Wilson

We are delighted to be featuring the lovely Sue Wilson this month!

Sue is challenging you to create a card using dies as the focal point or in unusual ways.
Here is her example.




Sue's bio - Sue Wilson joined the Creative Expressions team over eight years ago after permanently moving to England from California. Sue has been in the rubber stamp industry for twenty two years, first as a stamp company owner and now as a designer, demonstrator and dedicated crafter. Through her work on Create and Craft/Ideal World, Sue has become known for her unique demonstrations in die cutting and card making techniques. Sue currently holds the number two crafting blog in the UK Particraft and posts her projects daily in an effort to continually inspire both seasoned and new card makers with her talents.
"Crafting My Style" is a brand new series of video demonstrations of Sue’s card making techniques. Every episode is dedicated to a different project, each showcasing a unique style to help inspire and teach new and creative card making techniques. Sue now has over 70 videos on the Creative Expressions YouTube  channel.

Here are the cards created by our design team to give you some inspiration.
