| Someone I work with was getting married last week so I want to make a card from myself and buy a present. I decided to make an A4 card. The focal image of the card was a gorgeous Lily of the Valley (LOTV) image that I bought at the NEC last November. I have distressed the edges of the image with my Tim Holtz distressing tool and then inked the edges with a Memento ink pad. I printed off a pink and white backing paper from a Red Hot Bed CD I've had for a few years and complimented it with pink and white card I had. On the white card I stamped hearts and horseshoes from a See D's stamp set. |
 |
| Inside the card I inserted images from My Craft Studio Cds but just kept it very basic. |
 |
| This is the back of the card which I inserted a verse and again stamped the hearts and horseshoes. |
 |
| This is the matching envelope I made. I used a MCS Wedding Day image and then inserted the text below. |
The front of the card is finished off with a large flower display with a sparkly glass feature with highlights of Cosmic Shimmer glitter glue on the flowers, other flowers, spotty ribbon and a die-cut sentiment from Craftwork Cards.
The recipient was pleased with the card but seemed a bit strange. Originally her wedding was going to be over two days ie the Saturday and Sunday but then was changed to just one day but the Sunday. A colleague told me she didn't want to upset me. When she comes back at the beginning of August I will ask for the card and envelope back and will somehow alter it for the right date. Not sure how but I will have to put my thinking cap on.

Theme Thursday - Romance
Ai Factory - Layer it up
