Floral Frames, Foliage Frames, Wedding Card

Today I created another wedding card. I had just gotten the "Floral Frames" bundle and thought I would make a wedding card with it.  I really wanted to use the glitter paper on this card but I struggled with it at first but after playing with the pieces I came up with what you see here.

The base of my card is a folded half-sheet of Whisper White card stock.  The card stock was cut in half on the 8-1/2" side. This card opens at the bottom.

I die cut the circle piece, a couple of flower pieces and the fern looking pieces.  Both of the flower pieces needed some work. One was a cluster of three which I ended up cutting one flower from it and the other was a set of two, which I cut one flower from.  I ended up with four flowers all together. I cut two fern images and two - three petal leaves.

The center of the large circle piece was solid so I took a 2" circle punch and punched away the center. It turns out the center is just a little larger than 2" so I had to punch pieces off around it to make the majority of it all go away.  I glued this piece in place on a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Whisper White card stock.  

I stamped the words that were in the "Floral Frames" set using black Memento ink.

I added the flowers in place using Dimensionals.  I added a little glue to the fern pieces and the three petal pieces and set them in place.  

I added pearls to the center of each flower.  And for the final touch, I tied the "Polka Dot Tulle" ribbon around the card and tied a bow in the front. I added a glue dot just under the bow knot to keep it in place.  I added the panel to the card base using Dimensionals and the card was done. 

I do like how this card turned out. I think it's got the sparkle I was looking for and the elegant look of a wedding card.

Thank you SO much for visiting today,

A Botanical Blooms White on White Wedding Card

I have always loved white on white cards.  Today I thought I would like to do a white on white wedding card using the "Botanical Blooms".  I was putting a bunch of the flowers together until I got them together the way I thought they looked the best and this is what I came up with.  

I just added the flowers with Dimensionals.  The words are from the "Rose Wonder" stamp set.  

This was a fun card to make.  I used Whisper White for the base of my card and for the front panel. I layered it with a piece of Basic Black to give it a little contrast.  It's still white on white but it needed a little bit of black showing.  Plus the words were in black so it tied it all together!

Thank you SO much for stopping by today,

White on White Valentine's Day Card

Oh my gosh, this card nearly did me in.  Have you ever made a white on white card?  Well, I have not and I found it to be quite a challenge.  I wanted SO badly to put Pirouette Pink hearts on the three punched out pieces.  I thought it could use a splash of color.  But then it wouldn't be a white on white card now would it?  

SO I stuck with the theme and kept working on the card.  

I found that quote somewhere on the net and thought it was perfect to add to a Valentine's Day card.  

And since I couldn't add any color I played with texture instead!  I added the polka dot texture to the background and a flower texture to the next small layer under the punched pieces.  I set those punched pieces on with Dimensionals to give it a bit more texture!

When I got all done with it, all I could say was "I pulled it off!"  LOL  It was my first white on white card.  I'm sot sure if I would ever make another one but I am not going to say I won't!!!

If you want a challenge, try a white on white card.  No sponging, no other colors (except for the words)!  Give it a try!
