Wedding Card

Well I am back from my travels down to London with My daughter Kelly we had a great time went to a few museums and to the V&A ball gown exhibition which was very good well worth a visit also went to see the play Abigail's party very funny. 

Spent the weekend in Ramsgate with my family it was so nice to see everyone.

Kelly is now on the plane back to Hong Kong will miss her lots.

So today's card is for friends of Kelly who are getting married soon it a very simple card as she only told me at lunch time see need one and her plane home was at 4pm.

The card was made from 1 sheet of A3 white pearl card that I cut down to make a 8x8 card

the hearts are made from a nellie die I embossed the white heart  and add some pearls the black heart is mounted onto a white heart added a bow tie and some black pearls I used craft artist to add  the text then mounted the heart on to the black and white cards.

Its Friday so I am now in Sunny Ramsgate with my Parents for the weekend.

I got the idea for this card from some stamps I saw at a craft show so this is my take on them the stamps I have embossed 2 pieces of card with 2 different cuttlebug folders the inked them with Adirondack ink Raisin the flower is made from a Chloe large flower stamp I stamped it twice and stuck them together and rolled the edge so it was not flat on the card.added some glossy accents in the centre made a small thank you tag and add a singe gem for a bit of bling.

Challenges to follow.

Blue and cream flowers

Hi I am still in London hopefully having a great time with my daughter, one of my best friend and my sister-in-law.

This card is made from a new  set from Nitwits called Petal Fresh,I just love the papers in this set all blues and creams.

The image is made up from 3 digi images from the Nitwits set i joined them up and printed them out using  craft artist and added some ribbon and flowers from wild orchid. the cream paper has been embossed with a cuttlebug folder and then chalked over with a pale blue, corners are Marianne dies, added some pale blue ribbon and a little glitter, hope you like it it a bit different from what i normally do.
