Time For a Wedding!

My heart to you is given:
Oh, do give yours to me;
We'll lock them up together,
And throw away the key.
~Frederick Saunders

Hi all my fellow bloggers.  Today I have wedding cards! Don’t you just love a wedding? I was so excited when my Sister-in-law asked me to make a card for them to give my nephew and his wife on their wedding day.  I had so much fun making it, I decided to make mine too!  So today I have two cards to share with you.

First, the card I made for my husband and me to give:

WeddingCardChad

I just love how this card turned out. It is done in all neutrals (grey, cream, light grey, and white).  The Love medallion is a linen background with a design in hyacinth, heliotrope, and green.  The card is accented in silver and finished off with pearls and ribbon.

I absolutely adore the colors in the medallion. They are so delicate and pretty. Perfect for a wedding I think.

Supplies needed:

Paper: 12x12 Cardstock in grey, light grey, cream, white

Rubber Stamp Tapestry : Love 3" Block Stamp, Vintage Crochet stamp set

Spellbinders: Nestabilities

Ribbon and pearl embellishments

 

Now for my Sister-in-law’s card:

DottiesWeddingCard1

This was the first card I have made for someone else to give.  I have to admit I was a little nervous because I knew how special this occasion was for her and I wanted to make the card special too.

The theme was two hearts become one and I think the card turned out so pretty. 

DottiesWeddingCard2

Supplies needed:

Paper: Cardstock in pink, cream and a pretty heart print (I found this one as AC Moore)

Rubber Stamp Tapestry : Southern Dogwood Set stamp set

Spellbinders: Nestabilities

Ribbon and silver pearl embellishments

Sentiment: Use printer and word processing to print sentiment of your choice.

Thanks for checking out my blog today! Please let me know what you think of these cards.

Oh and have a great Labor Day weekend!!!!

How did I miss these cards? This week we have been preparing for the trade show in Birmingham and I have been running around like crazy. The cards are so soft and beautiful Ellen. I especially love the wedding card!
