Hi Everyone,
As you can see, the design of my blog has changed and I hope you like it, I just wanted a change as I'd had the same design for too long!
Anyway, this card is not just something I've made, it's for two very special friends of mine who are getting married in March this year! I'm very proud of this card and I'm going to enter it into quite a lot of challenges as I've never won anything for my cards yet, I'm hoping this will be the one to do it.
The image is from google images as I couldn't afford for any wedding stamps (how silly is that!) and I coloured it with my Promarkers! The backing paper is from a candy I won, I stamped around the edge of the image with the American Crafts - Knock Out punchies that I won from CM&PC magazine. I also used some little self-adhesive gems on each side of the card and used a pale purple marble to be the stopper at the front of the card. I typed and printed off the personal sentiment and wrapped ribbon around the top of the card, the design of the card is different from what I usually do so I hope it looks good.
Your comments always make me feel special so I'd love to know what you think!
Thank you!
