Weddings, continued.

The saga continues. I must say, however, that I like to work on a theme for a few days. The ideas get flowing and at the end I like to see the possibilities around one theme. Wedding cards tend to be too standard and I prefer to see it as unique as the people.

Today's card is inspired in the PP301 and I kept it as simple as the sketch. I love the elegance and straight forwardness of it, and honestly I can see it being used for a Bridal Shower too. The background is Timeless Elegance DSP, with the Watermelon Wonder Ribbon on front. The simple and elegant sentiment is from Flourishing Phrases stamp set and as much as I want to add more to it, I decided to stop and let the simplicity speak louder. Love the result.

Thank you for visiting today. Hope to see you again. Be well

Bride & Groom

It did get cold, but at least so far we did not see any snow. I heard other areas got some, but I am not jealous at all.

I stayed cozy inside and prepared a card for Dostamper Stars Challenge 174. The colors can be perfect for a wedding / bridal shower card, so that's what I went for. The sentiment is from the For The New Two stamp set, and since it is large it was enough to be showcased by itself. The image was stamped in Watermelon Wonder and embossed with clear powder.  I used the Curvy Corner Trio Punch to add details to the bottom edges and a rhinestone to finish the looks. The Pretty Petals DSP stack gave the Mint Macaron background. I added texture to the Blushing Bride panel, but that TIEF is long retired. A bow was in order, of course, and it fit nicely on top of the panel.

Thank you for visiting today. I hope you enjoyed this project and that it will inspire you to get your crafting going. Also, check the other Dostamper Stars for more inspiration on this challenge.

That's nice.

I am so happy that the summer has returned to us and I hope it will not shy away for a while now. The house feels warm again and the plants, bids, butterflies, and people are all very happy. I know I am.

Nothing better to greet summer back as a beautiful card with colors that only summer - and Stampin' Up! - can provide. Of course, CCMC 370 seized the opportunity and created this challenge. Well, what can I say, may as well play, right? Indeed. Awesomely Artistic stamp set provided for the images and the Schoolhouse DSP provided the background. I can certainly see this card being used as a Bridal Shower card, as the small textured hearts sure gives that special touch. Or maybe an anniversary card. What do you think?

Thank you so much for stopping by today. Have a fantastic week. Be well
