Diamond Wedding

A card for Dorothy and Mike's recent 60th wedding anniversary.

The card is 8 x 8 inches. I've used embossing folder by Lisa Horton, and diamond nesting dies by Tonic.

The butterfly die is Cardmaking Magic, number dies from AliEx.

 

Wedding

I've cheated with this card, it's copied from an idea in a book by Chloe Endean.
I just changed the colour slightly and missed off some extra beads and bits.

All stamps are by Chloe, embossing folder by Sue Wilson.
Lots of cutting out, and glitter everywhere.

Forever

I started playing round with a scrap of lace, some blue card-stock left on my desk...and together they reminded me of a bridal garter.

Forever die is by Papertrey Ink
Button die is SU/ Sizzix

I thought this might be a nice Mr & Mr card now that gay marriage is legal :)

New York Wedding

I made this for my brother and his girlfriend who are due to marry next week in New York.

The card is 8 inch square (Papermania, pack of six for £3), first time I have used this size but I think I like it. I normally use 6 inch x 6 inch but this gives the option to use scrapbooking paper where the pattern is quite large and still see enough of it.
The paper is by K&Co and has a lovely sheen to it which the photo does not show.

The stamped image is a very old stamp, not sure of the manufacturer but could be PSX.
Ribbon buckle is from ebay and is lovely and sparkly in real life.

With it being a special card I prettied up the envelope a bit using Sizzix Block Party alpha and some gems.

Wedding Day

Made at SU class, all materials are Stampin' Up.

I don't think my flowers are very clever but it was a good technique to learn.

Wedding

The final of the three very-rushed wedding cards.

I used a Martha Stewart punch to make the vellum piece at the bottom of the card (I cut the vellum larger than I needed so I could tape it at the back of the gold card to attach it without showing any adhesive).

The sentiment is a K & Co. rub-on. These have to be among the worst rub-ons I have ever used.

Eventually the rub-on did actually rub-on but it left marks on the card hence me trying to cover them up with self-adhesive gems, grrrr.

I hate the placement of the gems and should have started again but by that point I was so fed up it just had to do!

Wedding

Another one of the wedding cards I rushed (see previous post).
I'm not sure of the make of the rose patterned paper but I do know that I have had it for many years! The pattern was a bit strong so I have attached a sheet of white vellum over the top to tone it down slightly.
Sentiment printed on the computer and some Martha Stewart punched butterflies to add interest.

Wedding

I recently had to make three wedding cards for an order.

I knew what I was going to do and ordered the stash necessary, unfortunately it did not arrive in time and then we had an emergency at home so I was very pushed for time.

I'm not happy with the resulting cards but here they are anyway.

I used HOTP swirl stamps to liven up the plain lilac card, the white card has a gorgeous gold sheen to it and has been embossed with my Cuttlebug.

Sentiment was done on the computer.

Wedding

This was a card that ended up nothing like what the customer asked for....
Sentiment is computer generated, butterflies strategically placed to hide random lumpy bits (think it was double sided tape showing through!).
Gorgeous shimmer paper is 'Elegance' by K & Co, charcoal grey card is fill-a-wallet. Border punch is by Martha Stewart.

Matching box, I left the silver thread untied so that the customer would not have to fiddle about with it ;)

Mini tags are stamped and punched using Stampin' Up Medium Jewelry Tag punch (US spelling for 'jewellery'!) and Stampin' Up Tiny Tags stamps

Marriage

I made this card at craft club and before I had finished it one of the other ladies asked if she could buy it from me. I think I would have liked some ribbon or some gems at the bottom but did not like to change it after agreeing to sell it in case she did not like the additions.

So, Martha Stewart punch for the border.

The vellum quote is from a very old book by DCWV, I found some of these books in my stash and am determind to use them up, attached with brads.

I have no idea who the patterned paper is by which is a shame because it's gorgeous and I'd like some more, has a lovely sheen to it.

Romance

I think this would be nice for an engagement, wedding or an anniversary.

Not sure what the patterned paper is but it has a nice sheen, I layered it on grey Bazzill cardstock.

The definition sticker is an old Making Memories one and I taped some wide satin ribbon behind it.

I added some Martha Stewart butterflies and finished them with some self-adhesive gems for sparkle.
