Hello! I am back again this week! I hope your week is going great! I can't wait for the weekend! By Thursday ~I am beyond done!
Anyway, today is Thoughtful Thursday over at My Creative Time with Emma and the design team. This is when us designers create a thoughtful project! Well, I might have missed the boat on this one! I made a wedding card for a sweet friend of mine who is attending a wedding this coming weekend! It's thoughtful right?? LOL!
I asked her what colors she needed and wine/plum and metallic is what she requested. I wanted to keep this as CAS as possible.
I adore the wedding cake from the Wishing You Both the Best set, which I popped up by cutting out again with kid foam. To keep this card CAS, I tried to shade the cake and flowers with some gray and some hints of wine/plum with the flowers and beading on the cake. I did use the Wink of Stella pen, I never get to show up in my pictures and to be honest I could barely tell I used it in person. I might have to investigate on why this is happening. Anyway I reached for one of my favorite die sets, MORE Stitched Rectangular Dies, I love to use these dies. It totally gives any project dimension! I have to say I do LOVE the shiny paper I used that looks like a mirror, it does scratch easy and is almost impossible to get a great picture (hence why I have two pictures today) but the look in person is awesome!
Super simple card!
Materials Used:
Paper ~ PTI & Mirror paper
Ink ~ VersaMark
Ribbon ~ M's
embossing powder
Wink of Stella pen

Gorgeous, elegant card!!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card! Your friend will love it. Are you shaking your Wink before you use it? Got to shake it up good. I also remember Emma took hers apart and added water to make it last longer.
