Wedding Card

A Very Special Wedding Card for
A Very Special Couple -
My Son Andrew &
New Daughter In Law Rebecca

I selected a large 'Geographics' Australia Linen textured envelope #04902-Cream-Beige size is 9" x  6.375" approx, first and then cut my card base from Kaisercraft Cardstock in Ivory (CD602) to fit - then used Stampin Up Cardstock in Perfect Plum for the next layer.
The Striped Background was a sheet from COLORBOK-67694 Parsian Sky-12 inch Pack.
Using mostly Magnolia Stamps,  Tilda & Edwin as Wedding Couple,   Wishing Two
People Sentiment (Wedding Collection 2010)  & 
Love Script Heart Shaped Stamp(Love Collection 2009).  
A Hero Arts Stamp K5326 Heart Lace was used on the Ivory Cardstock using a Versamark Watermark Stamp Pad and The Creative Stamp Collection Embossing Powder "Lavender" and then cut out by hand.
The images are coloured with Distress Inks -Tattered Rose for Skin, Black Soot for Suit & Shoes & Cane and Seedless Preserves for Tie & Flowers. 
         
Then embelished with (Part) of Kaisercraft Pearl Flourish PL515
A Magnolia Heart 7" Strip Die is used to edge the left side and the couple are mounted on the largest Spellbinders Heart Circles Die from S4-316 - The 2 Perfect Plum hearts were die cut from the 2nd largest die in the Classic Heart Set S4-136. 
The small heart punch outs from the strip die have been mounted along the right side.

Trimmed with matching organza 1/4" ribbon and 3mm cream satin ribbon used to tie
the Bronze Metal Heart purchased on ebay. 

To complete the card, one coat of  Ranger Perfect Pearls Mist (PPM28352) was applied.
