Hi Blogging Buddies,
I have been spoiled today and have been able to craft all day long…what bliss! I have been busy making cards but today I want to show you some cards I made a few days back…these wedding cards. I dont usually make wedding cards…but am trying to get into it a bit more.
(Speaking of weddings…yesterday I took all our wedding negatives to the photo shop to get them put onto a cd. We got married in 2002 and the photographers were still using negatives back then…so it will be fun to have them on the computer and check them out. I will have to blog a couple so you can have a sticky-beak.)
I used an image from Bee Crafty. I like this image because of it’s simplicity. I coloured with copics and paper pieced the dress and his suit. Then I put kindy-glitz all over the dress. I started off with the copper organza ribbon, but then it ran out 🙁 so I had to go for black with white polka-dots. I inked the edges of the paper doily with Vintage Photo ink and then glimmermisted it. I layered some Friskars DT on top of copper card and then black.
I thought I would play along with a few challenges:
A Spoon full of Sugar – Sparkle and Shine
Digital Tuesday – Ribbons, buttons and/or bling
Allsorts – Song Title (Here Comes the Bride)
Thanks for visiting…I hope you had a nice weekend.
These are so lovely. Really like your paper piecing and the way you have coloured their hair.
Oh How organised you are Alicia! You can take the teacher out of the school…….lol! I am so envious, I wish I was more organised but I get caught up too much in this world world of blogging!
I for one am looking forward to seeing some of your wedding photos! I shalln't promise not to cry though!
