Wedding Card - well, what else could it be?

Hello, hope you are all ready for enjoying this royal wedding day. Me?, I have a date with the sofa and the telly and have no intention of moving except to get more tea - can't wait!


But before I get settled for the day I just want to share this card with you.  I was inspired by this digi image from a kit called "Peppermint Twist" and wanted to do something with a repeating element over a patterned trail at the bottom of a card, so I produced this card as a first thought.



Close up of detail
Which I then developed into this Wedding card.
Close up at detail.
I used the "Lap of Luxury" DSP, (Cat No. 120436, Pg 90), the "Heart to Heart" punch, (Cat No. 119881, Pg 105), and the "Small Heart" punch, (Cat No. 117193, Pg 106). I freehanded the parrallel lines and went over them with lots and lots of glitter glue, you can never have too much sparkle when it's for a wedding, before adhearing the hearts over the top and adding more dots of glitter glue over the bottom of the card.

I also decorated the inside using the "I {Heart} Hearts" stamp set, (Cat No. 118571 Pg 18), which I stamped in "Concord Crush" ink, (Cat No, 119785, Pg 81)
Continuing the love inside
Hope you have a wonderful day, whatever you are up to, chat again later :o)  xx
