A Marriage Made in Heaven

Good Morning!

Welcome to April’s InspirInk blog hop. This month Hannah chose the theme….

Weddings!

Now wedding cards are not something I make a lot of, so this one got me thinking!

I chose a sentiment first and after rummaging in my stash for something pretty, I found my Rose Wonder stamp set and dies.

Generally speaking, I try to use just one stamp set for my projects, so I planned my overall design with Rose Wonder.

It was all too tempting to use the large rose image, but I liked the small flower in the set too.

After a bit of playing about with the different elements I decided on this design. Love it!

The card base was cut and scored in the usual way with a white card layer adhered to this.

Additional coloured and white card stock layers were cut smaller still and put to one side.

On the white piece, I stamped the greeting with clear versamark ink and heat embossed with silver powder. For extra emphasis, I also stamped the heart outline from the More Than Chocolate set.

Three flowers were stamped on to the card in coordinating ink.

Three flowers and two sets of leaves were die cut. To help adhere the flowers, I punched out 1/2 inch circles in matching card. This allowed me to use a dimensional behind each of the flowers.

The white layer was added to the coloured card stock and then adhered to the preprepared card base with dimensionals.

Some extra details were added to the flowers centres using multipurpose glue. Three basic pearls completed the card.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed below.

Blue Bricks

Hi there,

I am playing along with the Colour Your World Challenge. This month’s colours are;

I chose Sahara Sand card stock as my card base and applied a white layer.

The background was created using the blue inks and a stamp from the More Than Chocolate set.

I free s pencil line to keep the first row straight after that, I used the edge of the stamp to line up the next row, building a brickwork effect.

The panel was cut to 3-1/2 by 5-1/4 inches and layered on to some Sahara Sand card stock.

Metsllic Edge ribbon was added to the middle.

The sentiment from Count My Blessings was stamped with Dapper Denim ink and die cut with a Stitched Oval.

Night of Navy and Sahara Sand card was used to cut additional layering ovals.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies ate listed and linked below.

Happy Stampin’!

Chocolate

Hey there,

More pattern building on today’s card.

I used a selection of small stamps from the More Than Chocolate set to decorate opposing corners of the card.

A mixture of Early Espresso, Chocolate Chip and Soft Suede inks were used to give the look of different types of chocolate.

Crumb Cake Classic Weave ribbon and Copper Trim were then wrapped around the card.

The sentiment, also from the set, was stamped in Soft Suede ink and cut with the Starburst Punch. The edges ware lightly sponged with the same ink.

The circle was stamped in Early Espresso and die cut and adhered to a Crumb Cake scalloped circle.

A few rhinestones just finish it off.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed and linked to the shop below.

Thanks for stopping by and happy stampin’!
