Wedding


I'm so pleased with this card, it's not often that a card turns out better than you expect, but this one I am sooo happy with.

The image is a Lili of the Valley stamp, which has been coloured with promarkers. The backing paper is from a papermania capsule collection pad, and I've also used this when making the flowers (yes I made those flowers - really chuffed with them!). The pink/lilac layer across the middle started out as a plain piece of white paper, which I stamped over with a Viva background stamp using versamark and then chalked over with shimmer chalks. The white layer has been punched using one of my favourite Martha Stewart punches, the sentiment is Lili of the Valley again and all of those pearl dots are from a Viva paper pen.

I would like to enter this card for the following challenges:


Hope you enjoy
