Lapis Wedding Card

Wedding Card- Fabric Ribbon



This part II of the wedding fabric scraps. Also from the hem I created a tube with fabric and then tied a knot to put around the embossed white layer. I used digitally generated paper for the scallop oval punch. On the is finished card I computer generated the Bride and Grooms Monogram, and popped it up in the scallop oval.

The card is 5 1/2 square. Mainly dry emboseed with the Big Shot. No stampin on the outside.I used a glue pen to fill in some areas and then sprinkled glitter on those areas to create texture.
RECIPE: SU Embossing folder Vintage Wallpaer, embossing folderfor the cake, SU Iridescent Glitter and Two-way glue pen, and liquid pearl paint. SU White Paper and Digital Paper. SU Scallop Punch, Scraps of Bridesmaid Dress for Ribbon.






Bridal Bliss


Blissful Bride Shower
This is a layout I cased from my monthly SU club meeting. I just returned after many months in absence. Shimmer paints was the technique that was focused on for this card. The original card was an A2 I made this one a 5 1/2 square. I used the SU embossing folder and another embossing folder that was a gift. I used shimmer paper and white paper. White organdy ribbon and crystal jewels. I used shimmer paint on the dress. I used an aqua painter to apply it. Very little drops of water so that it wouldn't look thick,and some pearl drop paint on the flowers of the dress.

As some of you may know I have been a make up artist for a large company for over twenty years. Yes! and I have learned a lot about color and fashion trends. All that being said we know how much I love creating and going out of the box. A very dear friend came to me and asked what I could come up with from the left over material from the hem of her dress. Well this is part I of the things I used with the leftover fabric.

She was the Matron of Honor and I made her a hair clip from the Big XL SU Die "Flower Folds". I had the center gem in a stash of the things you don't know what you buy them for then but you will find something to do with it.

I did indeed do her makeup and yes "HER HAIR" I did it because she was so sure that I could make it happen. She is on a budget and could not afford the hair and make up fees. So I did the hair and makeup and kept in her budget.

I love art!! Can you tell?
