Wedding Card Budget 2

Keeping the style of card the same this time the Stylised flower A2 Cuttlebug embossing folder was used across the top flap and a corner rounder punch was used on the top flap corners, again the ovals made with Stampin Up punches, finishing with the gold rings and ribbon.
This card works out a little dearer than the first due to using ribbon and metal gold rings.


Attention to detail...

The ribbon is tied all of the way around the card it can be slid up over the top flap to keep it closed, the rings are threaded onto the ribbon when making the 2nd knot.

Wedding Card Budget

budgeting for a wedding can be the nightmare for any new couple starting out, so, I wanted to create a wedding invitation at a low cost yet keeping the elegance that weddings insist on.
I started by using a matchbook fold, and embossing the top front portion with the Victorian A2 embossing folder, for the fancy edging I used the EK success double scallop punch then added 3 blossoms to the top left corner


Attention to detail...

3 die cut blossoms and a cuttlebug A2 Victorian folder made the main focal point of the card and a dot of golden rod stickles to accent the centre of the blossoms, making the professional bridal finish that every bride wants.



Stamped wording and oval punches from Stampin Up a couple of foam pads on the back make a catch to hold down the the top folded card.

Floral Frenzy

I think I'm in pink mode at the moment, I love pink matched with brown it's like a bit of sugar candy.
I used the Floral Frenzy stamp set from Papertrey Ink ( link it on the side bar) stamped in close to cocoa ink from Stampin Up, I then over stamped the petals in pink ink and set to layering up the card, The sentiment was also stamped with close to cocoa ink then punched out using the word slot punch, If anyone needs a supplier of Stanpin Up products Toni who is on my design Team and linked on the side bar is a representative.


Attention to detail...

Pink polka dot buttons tied with twine, pink twill ribbon knot tied, matching striped paper and lots of layeres.
