A little romance ........ leads to .............

A wedding acceptance card.

My gorgeous landlady requested this card for a close friend of hers who is getting married next month.

The brief was silver, rings and something that didn't look shop bought .............. wow, that left the field wide open.

I wanted the card to reflect the bride's invite - which had silver rings on it.  I also wanted fairytale romance.  Here's what I came up with

From the side

the front

I used Coredin'ations card stock to emboss a Couture Creations figure, and then sanded this lightly.  The circular image and co-ordinating corners are from Kanban.  I layered these onto Kanban papers and pleated a Papermania ribbon, adding a glitter buckle and heart charm.  All the paper edges have been distressed using the fantastic Tim Holtz distress tool.  Lastly I added a little pearl necklace to the beautiful embossed dummy.

Thanks for looking and all your wonderful comments, they always mean so much to me.

Hugs to you all

Beautiful Fairies and Flutterbys

Hi everyone, today's card is my DT card for the fantastic Anything Goes Challenge Blog.  Don't forget you can shop at the brilliant Craft Den - Lyn is always pleased to see her challenge entries popping up in the online shop.

Our theme this fortnight is Flutterby Butterfly.  Anything with wings ...........  I have sooo many gorgeous stamps and images of butterflys, fairies and birds that it took me ages to choose which image to use.  However the gorgeous fairy used is a digi image from Make it Crafty.  She of course is coloured with Promarkers.  The papers are all from First Edition - the Dreamcatcher and New Leaf collections.  The background paper has been stamped with a gorgeous tailors dummy and butterflies by Creative Creations.
I have layered the image onto black netting and added a black spotty ribbon bow finished with a butterfly charm.

I hope you like her.
