Wedding Card Order

Last year at a pamper night, I met a lady who wanted me to make a wedding card for her daughter.
She contacted me recently with her request to include the following photograph of the happy couple and some words inside.
The bride is having Cala Lillies as her bouquet and the bridesmaids will be in lilac.
Here is the result.


I used and 8x8 card from CWC (my favourites at present) and cut a lilac mount.
The photograph was mounted onto silver mirri card and added to the centre.
The letters were cut with my Don Juan Cricut cartridge in black with a silver shadow.
I then added dots with a white gel pen to highlight.
A strip of lilac ribbon and a knot were placed down the edge then I used the same lilac paper to punch some daisies. The Cala Lillies were cut using Lynn's sizzix die and coloured with chalk.





I added pearls to the flower centres and added a Monarch Butterfly cut with a Martha Stewart punch I got a the Glitterpot.
The inside was layered with lilac paper and some handmade paper with petals.
I have blurred the words for privacy.
I hope she likes the end result......
