Now & Forever
Happy Monday!
While working with my Lockhart stamps this weekend, I had this idea for the Bride & Groom. I wanted something simple, clean, and elegant. I hope I pulled it off?
I embossed the bride & groom with detail silver EP on vellum cardstock, and cut it with my square scalloped Nestability die. Using the basic square die, I cut white cardstock, ran it through my Xyron, and layered it behind to make them “pop”. I machine stitched around the edge, and added some white pearls in each corner.
To add a bit more detail, I embossed the Lockhart Millinery ribbon vine in detail white EP across the bottom of the SU! brushed silver cardstock. I tied some lovely pleated May Arts ribbon across the card, and added a white making memories metal tag with a jump ring and some silver cord. (I punched a hole in the tag with my Cropadile.) I adhered the silver panel to a white cardbase, then added the scalloped panel on foam dimensional tape.
Wishing you all a lovely week ahead!
