Back so soon, I hear you say...lol! I was having a day off today to draw breath between finishing yet another lot of Design Team work and starting the next which is languishing on my "To Do" shelf as we speak! However, I had this commission to get done, so guess where I've spent most of my afternoon? That'll be in my craft rom, then! Typical, isn't it, the sun is shining and I'm indoors, although I did take the fur babies out for a short jolly to the park, but I tire before they do, so it was back to work for me.
Here is what I've made...it's a Wedding Day card requested to be the colours of the Invitation, i.e. Ivory and Green...and I hope they are happy with this.
I'd love to hear your opinions, please.
Recipe:I joined 2 A4 sheets of Europa Ivory card (Craft Creations Hi-5 Pearl range) and cut to make approx 7.5" square card. I made the main matt by colour matching in My Craft Studio graphics programme and cut it and a matt in Gold Mirri card using Spellbinders die - Grand Labels One. I then cut the gold shape in half and separated it to eek it our a bit to provide a slight border behind the green one.
I printed the text in MCS on to the ivory card and cut it using Spellbinder die - Labels Twenty - and inked it with Distress Ink - Bundled Sage. The gold hearts were cut with Spellbinder die - Classic Hearts - and the overlays is cream card were cut on my GC using Memory Box die - Serafine Heart. I also cut a scrap piece of gold mirri card using a Marianne Creatable Flourish die to cut up to use among the flowers which are Ivory Tea Rose and Ivory Cherry Blossoms from Wild Orchid Crafts.
A pearl hatpin, green heart spray and green pearls from my crafty stash and gold initials complete the embellishments on this card.
