My niece is getting married in May, and last week I attended a bridal shower for her. She's a firefighter, and is not really into girly things, but I decided to ignore that and make her a pretty card:
I'm not always a fan of Calypso Coral, but it just seemed right for this card. The patterned paper was a FREE Sale-a-Bration offering (sadly over now), Bubbles & Fizz, and it was my starting point.
The card base is
Calypso Coral, 5-12" x 8-1/2", scored in the middle and folded in half. There's a thin layer of
Lemon Lime Twist, and then the Bubbles & Fizz DSP.
Using the
Weather Together stamp set I stamped the umbrella right on the DSP, then cut it out using the coordinating
Umbrella Weather Framelits. The
Beautiful Bouquet stamps made the flowers, and I cut them with the matching
Bouquet Bunch Framelits.
The
Layering Ovals were a perfect base for my bouquet; Lemon Lime Twist was cut with a scalloped oval, and
Whisper White was cut with a plain oval. This was also stamped with some of the leaves from
Jar of Love, in
Lemon Lime Twist ink.
The sentiment was stamped (
Calypso Coral ink) and roughly cut to balance out the top of the card.
I added some of the DSP to the envelope flap - don't you love coordinating envelopes?
Wishing Abby and Ryan all the best, and now I'm looking forward to their wedding day.
