Rohit and Izzy's card....

As promised yesterday, here is the card that I made for Rohit and Izzy. The card is very similar to the one that I made for my nephew Dan and his wife Sarah, except that this one is an 8" square gatefold. The base card was made with two 8" cards scored down the front and adhered together at the back. The paper is Bella Wedding. The shaped panel on the front of the card was cut from white and pink pearlised card and shadowed with silver mirri. It was adhered to a square panel on the front of the card with foam pads. A scalloped oval holds two lovebirds cut from white pearlised card, and a scalloped heart. I added some pink scalloped hearts to the shaped panel for added interest. A Prima bloom, sheer bow and pearl strands were adhered above the shaped panel. A large pearl in each corner of the square panel completes the front of the card.

The inside of the card was decorated with flourishes cut from silver mirri and Paper Cellar irridescent flowers. Again I used the word 'Love' to decorate the front flap of the card that is hidden by the square panel. Those punched silver borders hide some less than perfect cutting! Wedding details were computer generated onto vellum and adhered to the front of another card, closed with a ribbon....

..which, when opened, reveals a sentiment.

I made a box to put the completed card in because it was bulky.
