Our theme this month is Weddings.
And as I have a friend getting married this November I thought I would make their wedding card now...I am also making their invitations...so, I may not have time to get the wedding card done later!
Here it is :)

I chose traditional colours for their card, plus I know what the colour scheme is for the wedding hehehe. That always makes for an added personal touch.

Method
- This card has 4 layers on the front, before reaching the card base itself. The inside has two layer on top of the base.
- You can just see in the back ground of the card front the edges of silver lace...This was stamped using the Delicate Details stamp set on a seperate piece of basic black card stock.
- For the focal card stock piece (Whisper White) I used the embossing folder Fluttering.This was layered direcetly onto Silver Foil and that was layered directly onto Basic Black card stock, which in turn was layered onto the stamped and Silver heat embossed lace images.
- For the focal images, I chose the Sunshine Wishes scribble heart. This has been die cut in silver and black and then layered on top of each other but slightly askew..
- The butterflies have been punched using the Elegant Butterfly and Bitty butterfly punches, This has also been done in silver and black.For the flourish on the butterflies, I embossed in silver the flourish from the flourishing phrases stamp set. I then cut my butterflies so that one side of each had part of the flourish showing..
- When all focal pieces had been put in place, I then placed the whole lot onto dimensionals and attached to the base.
- The sentiment for the inside is from Floral Phrases. This has been stamped first in versamark embossing ink then stazon jet black. I then lightly dusted half of the sentiment in silver embossing powder and heated.This gives a two toned effect. I added the two butterflies to aid in carrying the theme through to the inside.
- To finish this card I used the Congratulations sentiment from the Floral Phrases stamp set mounted on a banner, I then added some sequins from the metallics sequins assortment.
I hope you like this card enough to consider voting for me. Click the pic below and find my card in the pics. Click the heart to vote for my card project.
