Wedding Card for Alli


The wedding card!!!
I am going for the wood look on this card as Allison's request for her wedding cake is this:


Bear with me on the pictures they are dark and I couldn't get them lighter
 without making them fuzzy. This card was probably the hardest card  I've
ever made. I even had to watch a video for assembly. I tried to emboss the wood
grain look into it and that was just not going to work. It made it too weak.
Interesting to learn that on this card... So after cutting a bunch of these out
 and then re-cutting them out to start over I finished with this:


Front view
3 layers of cake decorated with leaf embellishments with raffia bows.


So you can see I added the date here with Lizzies help
(Date stamp wanted to add month and year not day)


Side view you can almost see the wood-grain stamp I used


Best picture of the bunch!
you can see the wood-grain stamp here.

This was definitely a labor of love

Paper Pumpkin Magic! - 3 layouts and 6 cards

  I received my paper pumpkin kit for July and wanted to create a few layouts and some of the cards. Video shows the cards and layouts - creating one 12X12 layout during the video for Nancy. You Tube Video: Cards: Daisy in Old Olive card  Flower in Melon Mambo card Poppies in Calypso Coral card Card details: Card base is from CTMH July Paper Pumpkin kit Inks - Artichoke, Rosy and Papaya Cuts: Card base from the kit cut in half then the floral front was cut to 3 3/4 X 4 3/4 the solid pattern was cut to 4 X 5 1/4 (cutting out 3 1/2 X 4 3/4 out of the center) Process: I added the corresponding ink to the card base to soften it and then I added the solid pattern and the floral pattern. I inked the edges of the floral and solid pieces from the kit then adhered them to the card base. I added strip pop tape to the frame and the flower piece then added it to the card. Finished with the included sequins. 12X12 Layout: Calypso Coral card 12X12 Layout bits: Kraft (2) 12X12, (2) 4 1/4 X 6 1/4 and
