Wedding #2

'Hello' on this beautiful winter's day in Sydney.  
Far too nice to be indoors so this will only be a quick post.

This is the second wedding card I made for my friend who has been invited to a couple of weddings in the next few months.


I came across a layout recently that I really liked the look of and thought would work well with this gorgeous heart, so with a little bit of tweaking, this is my finished card.

I did however, cheat a little bit because it's not stamped but is from a watercolour sheet of images, so all I had to do was cut around the border and add colour where I wanted.


I used metallic gel pens to colour the flowers and the word being careful not to smudge anything!  Once dry, I matted it with gold cardstock.   Another piece of white cardstock was also matted and some gold thread wrapped around both layers with the stamped sentiment included.  Two pieces of gold washi tape were added before the heart image was popped onto dimensionals.  The sentiment also has a dimensional under it to keep it at the same level.

I was really pleased with how this turned out and my friend was thrilled with both the wedding cards.

I also added another little tag with the same stamped image as before but this time stamped in black with gold detail added [which I forgot to photograph].
