At this stage of my life I don't have the need to make many Wedding cards. Due to the upcoming nuptials of two colleagues (not to each other) I have made a couple of cards to mark their special occasion. Today I will show you one of the cards.
The base of the card is Whisper White card stock. The next layer is vellum that has been embossed with the retired embossing folder Vintage Wallpaper. You can easily substitute the Beautifully Baroque Textured Impressions folder. Then I heat embossed the retired Mr & Mrs stamp set with Silver Emboss Powder. I love the font and detail of this stamp and will not give it up just because it is retired.
I cut it out with one of the Apothecary Framelits and I added to the card with Stampin' Dimensionals. The butterflies are from the Papillon Potpourri stamp set. I stamped Versamark on Vellum and then heat embossed with White Emboss Powder. I used Glue Dots to mount the butterflies.
This is a close up of the embossed sentiment and butterflies. Sometimes it is difficult to capture the texture and depth of these features with my camera.
The inside of the card is also embossed with Silver Emboss Powder. I used one of the new stamp sets Big News – I think this stamp set should be on everyone's wish list. The fonts and sentiments are perfect for many occasions.
The envelope is lined with Silver Vellum Paper.
So while wedding cards are not in my usually repertoire I am pleased with the result. White on white cards are difficult.
