Happily Ever After

Chrissie, one of the ladies who comes to my Wednesday workshops asked me to make her a couple of cards for weddings that she would be attending last month, and this is one of the two that I made for her....
The card base is an 8" square. I used a pretty rose print paper that I had in one of my laptop files, printed onto pearlescent paper. I matted it onto ivory pearlised cardstock, then added an embossed panel to the left hand side of the card. I added a sheer ribbon, bow and bloom, pearl sprays and die-cut leaves, and a pearl to each intersection on the embossed piece.
'Happily Ever After' was cut from white pearlised cardstock shadowed with ivory. A piece of champagne coloured glitter card was adhered behind the 'Ever' oval and pearls adhered around it. The completed sentiment was adhered to the front of the card with foam pads. A trio of pearls above and below the sentiment completes the card. I'll show you the second card that I made for Chrissie next time.
