A very different wedding card

This is another commissioned wedding day card, but this time very different! The invitation that my friends had received was printed in black on a bright yellow card and so I was asked to try and come up with a wedding card that matched the theme.

The yellow card is actually very lightly embossed with the word 'summer' in different sizes and at different angles, but you can't see it in the photo - you need to move the card to catch the light. The yellow card was mounted on to stardream black sparkly card.

The congratulations border is a stamp, which I inked and heat embossed with black detail powder. I did the same with the Anita's hearts and text stamp. I printed out the names and date on my dymo letratag in the smallest size so that I could fit the names on the hearts. The other sentiments were also done on the letratag.

The colours are good for Moxie Tuesday trigger challenge: perty & flirty, where this is the inspiration photo:


This is also for:

Allways something creative 10: yellow and another colour
Craft your passion 67: text it - use text somewhere (on the stamped image)
Stampin' B 119: make card with bling
Pattie's creations 26: glitter or bling
Whoopsi daisy: sparkle and shine
Gingerloft 22: make it sparkle
Stamp insanity 66 & 67: anything goes
Clear it out Tuesday: anything goes
Simon says: anything goes
