Hello,
Today I am sharing a wedding card over on The Mad Scrapper Blog using beautiful papers and blooms available in the shop.
This card is 6x8 and I have placed it in a box to protect the flowers.
I started by choosing my papers to match the bride's colours pale pink and cream.
I love the Tea and Tranquillity paper collection so I pulled out a couple of papers along with a pale pink solid.
I started by adding the floral paper after distressing the edges. I used a sentiment from my stash inking with clear embossing ink and adding green powder on top. The smaller secondary sentiment is just inked in green. I used nesting heart dies to cut it out.
I knew I wanted to stitch on the card and add some vintage deep lace so I backstitched around the pink script paper and added it to a slim cream mat. Using foam strips I attached it to the card base. Then I added the lace with hot glue, then the heart on top.
I pulled out a selection of flowers (list below) and arranged them around the left side along with some muslin and pink lace flowers. To finish off I added some tiny clear dew drops.
The box was white inside so I decided to lay a piece of darker pink which helps because the card is cream.
Here you can see I added some cream and pale pink ribbon the the box lid as well as a small piece of the lace topping off with a little bow and some tiny flowers.
Thanks for stopping by today I hope I have inspired you to use your stash to make cards with too. I used new sheets for this card but of course we all have half sheets tucked away for such an opportunity. If you need paper or embellishments for a project pop in to see Janine or do as I do and go to The Mad Scrapper and look at your leisure. Janine has the store set out in brands or products for ease.
Sue.
