Weekend Wedding

I am looking forward to this weekend so much, as the son of some very close friends will be getting married and I can't wait to see the bride in her dress (yes I am a sucker for romance and all the pomp and ceremony of weddings!).

So today's card is to inspire you if you want a wedding card that has a bit of colour!

I began by colouring the flower from 'Fanciful' 40-100 with Tombow markers, I then spritzed with water before stamping and cut around the outside edge of the petals. I then cut a strip of 'Rose Garden' 14-001mix and match cardstock and embossed with Provocraft Swiss Dots embossing folder and adhered to the inside edge of the card.

The 'Bride and Groom' 4167K was then stamped and water coloured using Tombow and Tim Holtz distress marker pens.(I think his suit jacket looks fab using Pumice Stone).

The sentiments were then added using 'Gratitude' 30-105.

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend.

Hugs Cathy

Absolutely beautiful & I have to agree about the Pumice Stone for the suit. Love your edging & the cut away portion - really classy. Have a lovely time.

This is gorgeous, Cathy. I like the way the pink edging makes the flower border pop. I also love the soft colouring on the bride and groom.
