Winter Wedding Card

Hello everyone, and welcome to my latest design team make for Visible Image. The theme for our makes this week is "winter weddings". I always think that the idea of having a winter wedding is very special. My immediate thoughts for a colour scheme were Kraft with white, gold and a pop of red. This is colour scheme I love to use for Christmas cards too.

I knew the gorgeous wedding verse set would be perfect to use as the focal of my card. There are 2 stamps in this set and you could just put "on your wedding day" on the front of the card and put the verse inside.

Tutorial

First I stamped wedding sentiment and verse onto kraft card using Versafine Morning mist ink.

Next I stamped the lilies with love image a couple of times onto smooth white card using embossing ink and gold heat embossed them. I cut them out using their coordinating dies and also cut out by hand a few pieces of the leaves left behind. Don't worry that they have some parts cut away. They can be tucked away underneath the flowers.

I cut out the verse using a rectangular stitched edge die from my stash (but of course you can just cut this out by hand).

I also ran some white ink around the edges of the plaque.

Using embossing ink and white embossing powder I repeat stamped the Grunge flourish around the edges of a piece of 5 1/2" square Kraft card.

I then added the focal plaque to the centre, raising it up a little with foam 3D pads.

I arranged the die cut lilies and leaves around the edges. I stuck them in place using a mix of glue and foam pads to give them some dimension.

I added some finishing touches of my trademark sequins and 3 red gem hearts for a pop of winter colour. I then adhered it to a 5 3/4" white square card blank.

Of course this design doesn't have to be just for a winter wedding card. If you put a different sentiment or verse on the focal plaque it would also work for a winter birthday, or even a Christmas card.
