Wedding Bells

Well this is the third post of the morning, it's been a busy week!
Over at Fantasy Stampers it's time for a new challenge which this week is - 

Wedding Bells

I have to say that there are a few weddings around this year for us so I went with something a little different, no image just a stamped sentiment.


This is a smaller wedding card, just A6, but I think small is beautiful in this case. The idea came to me while looking through the inspiration at LOTV. The Doily is from a Joy die, the sentiments from LOTV and papers from NitWit's  Cotton Candy Wishes. I chose these papers because of the colours, I love pink and green together and in this case I've used a more muted palette. The flowers were simply made by cutting out circles which I then cut in a spiral and folded up. Assorted leaves cut from green card, lace and pearls from the stash. The edges of the papers were distressed then inked with Tattered Rose DI.
Think I'll go and lie down in a darkened room now before my Grandson arrives after all this blogging.

I shall enter it in the following challenges :-

Distress It!

Good morning.
Is it really two weeks since the last Fantasy Stampers challenge, well it must be as we have a new one for you all.

DISTRESS IT!

We want to see all your distressed creations, cards not emotions!
This is not a route I usually take, I prefer a clean crisp design, but here is my DT inspiration for you. I suppose the image is a sop to my style.


The pink papers are from NitWits, 'Perfect Pair' and the stamp is Tilda with Magnolia branch, coloured with Copics as follows.
Hair -Y21,E35,41,42,44
Playsuit - RV000,02,10, E40
Shoes -  E40,41,42,43,44,47,49

 The vertical panels are made by stamping off -white paper with a Hero Arts Birthday Text stamp in Versamark Onyx Black.
All the papers were distressed with a distressing tool then edged in Vintage Photo DI. The doily is from Joy Crafts and the lace strip was punched using a MS edge punch. The sentiment is from LOTV. Three buttons from the stash finish off the card.

OK, that's that so why don't you nip over to Fantasy Stampers and see what the other fantastic ladies of the DT have made to inspire you then have a go.
I shall enter this card in the following challenges -
Creative Card Crew - Girly
Copic Marker Europe - Out of the comfort zone
Copic Markers Norge - Anything goes
Midweek Magnolias - Frame it
