Serene swans........

It was my brother and sister-in-law's wedding anniversary last week and this is the card that I made for them. It's a whopper at 8" square - I've taken a liking to big cards since doing my A4 commission cards. I used beautiful 'Wedded' pearlised patterned paper from the Bella! Wedding collection. The paper was matted onto a square of silver mirri and adhered to the front of the card. A beautiful intricate panel was cut from more silver mirri and adhered to the front of the card with foam pads. I added an embossed heart and ribbon bow to the top of the panel, and in the centre of the panel are two beautiful swans cut from pearlised card. I flipped one of them so that they were facing each other. A computer-generated sentiment was trimmed to fit a silver mirri oval which was adhered below the swans with foam pads. I embellished the oval with a pearl heart and some plain pearls. A quartet of medium sized pearls completes the card.
Carts used:
Intricate panel- Ornamental Iron 2
Swans- Art Nouveau
Heart- George
Oval holding sentiment- Opposites Attract
