Nice day for a white wedding........

First of all I'd like to thank my lovely BIL for his kind comment on my last post- I appreciate it very much.Thanks Kumar!!!
Onto business! These two wedding cards are of a similar theme -Wedding cakes obviously- but are made very differently. The pink card on the left is made with PP papers and a cake cut from the Paper Doll Dress Up cart. The cake is cut from pearlised white card and decorated with tiny pink flowers from my stash and tiny self adhesive pearls. A PP sentiment and pink velvet ribbon complete the picture. One thing I'd like to mention is that when you make any accessory cuts to be used as the main component from the PDDU cart you MUST engage the real dial size button otherwise everything is cut in relation to the size of the doll on the page.If you don't do this all you get is a pile of wasted paper!!! The other card is made from the wedding collection from Dovecraft. A strip of paper was mounted onto silver mirror card and scalloped along one long edge. A smaller panel was made in the same way except that the scallops are at both ends of the panel. A piece of printed ribbon was wrapped around the card over the bottom panel and under the top one and a bow added. The cake was decoupaged (2 layers only) and added to the panel. 3 little flowers punched from silver card and embellished with tiny gems,and a sentiment cut from Stonescript at 1" completes this card.
hope you like it!!
