For the Newlyweds

Today I have a wedding card to share.  I needed a card to send to the daughter of a friend from Alabama who got married last week.  I also used it in a recent class.  thanks for stopping by!

For a Special Couple

 

I made today's card with some of the cards in the Petal Garden Memories and More Card Pack.  I bought the pack with scrapbooking in mind and I will use most of it for that purpose but I love that I can use some of the pieces for cards as well.  Thanks for stopping by!

Congratulations

 

 

 

I am terrible at taking pictures, this one looks crooked but it really isn't and I am too lazy to take it over so pretend it is straight. I used the Bouquet Bunch dies and stamps for this card.  My husband's great nephew is getting married in a few weeks so I made this for him and his beautiful bride to be.  Thanks for stopping by!

Bride to Be

This is the third card we made at this month's bundle class.  I used the retired dress die and added the t-shirt to the top of it to make it look like a blouse and skirt.

To Have and to Hold

Today I have another wedding invitation sample to show you, these are full cards with the invitation part printed on the inside.  I had made some samples from preprinted templates as well but the girl I am working with wanted a more handmade look so I made up several styles for her.  Thanks for stopping by!

S'more Love

 

This is another item I am making as part of the wedding ensemble I have been sharing.  The bride and groom are having their house built and are adding a fire pit so they want to have s'mores as part of their reception at their new house.  I made this little tag to add to the s'mores kit.  This stamp was in one of the sets that I ordered when I first became a demonstrator almost 9 years ago.  I have used it many, many times and once again it came in handy.  Thanks for stopping by!

Wedding Samples

 

Happy Monday to you!  Today I have another wedding invitation sample.  I had to hurry and get the samples photographed because the sweet gal that is getting married was coming to pick them up.  I forgot to take one of this one opened up, it is really pretty.  I put a  layer of vellum underneath the die cut image and the wedding info is typed onto a Pink Pirouette layer.    Thanks for stopping by!

Window box Valentine

Today I have another Window Box project, this one a Valentine in nontraditional Valentine colors.  It could also be used to hold a small gift for a wedding.  I stamped the box all over with the flower image from the stamp set So In Love from  the Occasions catalog using Wisteria Wonder ink onto Wisteria Wonder card stock.  I think the wood accents and the lace doily give it a vintage appearance.  Thanks for stopping by!
 

For the Newlyweds

Today I have another wedding card to share, this one for a customer.  I love how easy it is to achieve an elegant card with this die.  I have seen it used in so many ways, even for boxes. 

Today is my Shelby's 18th birthday, I am so proud of her.  She is a busy girl for sure, maybe a little too busy.  She is involved in several clubs in school which require a lot of time during and after school.  This past weekend was Football Homecoming and she helped make the Senior Float, helped decorate for the Homecoming dance,  played in the band for the parade, cleaned up after the dance, and then the morning after the dance had to work in the Key Club Pancake day at 7:00 am.  When I woke her up this morning to tell her Happy birthday, she thought it was Sunday and asked if she could skip church.  Tomorrow is Sadie's birthday so I will have lots to say about her then.  They would have had the same birthday but the delivery room doctor let Shelby choose if she wanted to share her day or not, she was five at the time and said absolutely not.  So he slowed down the process until after midnight.  Love my girls!

Wedding Wishes

 

I am slowly getting caught up on replenishing my inventory and making a few extras for upcoming craft shows.  I was down to one wedding card so I made a few of these, one is going out today to my husbands nephew.  Thanks for stopping by!

For the Newlyweds

I needed a quick and easy wedding card so I used the Detailed Floral Thinlets with the coordinating Floral Phrases stamp set.  The sentiment is from Teeny Tiny Wishes.  The DSP is Floral Boutique.  Here is a video on how to use these dies.

 

Bridal Shower Invitations

I didn't have enough to do so I took on a Bridal Shower as well, but that's ok because I do like being busy!  This is the invitation which I kept simple since I have 150 to make.  She also wants a "Words of Wisdom" card as well as a Recipe  Card that will be included with the invitation.

I used the Cups and Kettles die set to cut the spoon and fork, the mom of the bride will pick up the samples tomorrow, hope she likes them.  Thanks for stopping by!

Wedding Favors

I have got a lot accomplished already this week....I made 45 of these little dress boxes for a wedding shower, got all my classes designed and prepped for the rest of the month, started on favors for  a Christmas wedding, and designed the favors for a princess birthday party!

Here are 45 dress boxes waiting to be packed up.

This is the design for the Christmas wedding I am working on.  Isn't that lace pretty!  This is the first one I have done  with fabric added but the bride wanted to try it and she loved it, I wish I could have got a better photo.  I will show you the Princess Party after my customer sees it today.  Thanks for stopping by!

Timeless Elegance Wedding

With all the June weddings, my stash of wedding cards was completely diminished.  So I made a few simple cards yesterday.  I used the gorgeous Timeless Elegance DSP along with a little piece of ribbon from a retired kit.  Thanks for stopping by!

Cake Slice Box

This is my beautiful Ava, she had her end of the year picnic last night and the kids sang some songs for our entertainment.  Most of the boys didn't sing or do the actions but they looked cute just standing there.

I have just finished a huge custom wedding  order  and it is ready to pack up.

I made 200 cake slice boxes!  I think they turned out really good, I used a die and my Big Shot Pro to cut the boxes.  But guess what....Stampin' Up! has a cake slice box in the new catalog!!!  I know that will be the first thing I order June 2 since I do so many weddings.

Here is a single slice.  She wanted the top to be embossed so  I cut a separate piece and just cut the top and then embossed it.  Her colors are  close to Night of Navy and Pink Pirouette so I added ribbon around the middle to make it look like icing separating layers.  If  you are in need of wedding favors, I am booking Fall and Winter weddings now, but hurry since I tend to get booked fast.

Mr. & Mrs.

I have been finishing up wedding favors for a sweet girl and she wanted ideas for a placecard to use for the tables at the reception.  I made this one first but she needed a little more room for the wording so together we came up win this one.

Thanks for stopping by!

Something Borrowed

I combined two stamp sets to make this wedding card, Your Perfect Day and Cheers to Love.  The DSP, Something Borrowed, is  beautiful and I intend to stock up on it since I do a lot of wedding custom work.  Thanks for stopping by!

Cheers to Love

I sold my last wedding card yesterday...and what happens first thing this morning....someone comes in wanting a wedding card!  I told her if a very simple card was ok give me 5 minutes and I will come up with one.  Here is my 5 minute card using the stamp set Cheers to Love and the Ampersand embossing folder.

Regarding Dahlias

Regarding Dahlias is one of my favorite sets in the catalog, I sure hope it stays around when the new catalog comes out.  This card was made using the Split Negative technique.  It is hard to tell but the the top half is embossed in silver on black and the bottom is black embossed on Brushed Silver.  I didn't put a sentiment on yet but I think I will use it for a wedding or anniversary card.

Label Love

When the embossing is as pretty as the Beautifully Baroque, you don't really need much else to make a card.  I noticed I was running low on wedding cards so I made a few to add to my stash.  This CAS design makes it easy to stock up.

Recipe:
Stamps:  Label Love
Ink:  Blushing Bride
Paper:  Whisper White, Blushing Bride, Birds of a Feather DSP
Accessories:  Beautifully Baroque embossing folder, Label punch
