Layers of Beauty – Wedding Card

Catching up with the Design Team for Facebook Case-ing Tuesday (#463).  The card we are case-ing can be found on page 61 of the Annual Catalog. 

I wanted to use the Color Dare (#602) palette to create a Wedding card for a few challenges that currently have that as a theme: Inspire Create (#169), Heart’s Quest Celebrations of Love (#6) and TGIF (#475).

Here is the result:

Steps:

• Card Base: (8½” x 5½” scored at 4¼”) Highland Heather cardstock.
• Triple Strips: (1¼” x 5”) Highland Heather cardstock dry-embossed with the Floral Fun Patterns Embossing Folder, an On-Line Exclusive Product.
• Accent Mat: (3¼” x 3¾”) Gorgeous Grape cardstock.
• Focal Panel: (3⅛” x 3⅝”) Basic White cardstock.
  • A portion of the large Floral image from the Layers of Beauty stamp set was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink.
  • Using the coordinating Layers of Beauty Decorative Masks, Blending Brushes and/or Sponge Daubers, the colors were added.  Stencil #1 – Highland Heather and Boho Blue; Stencil #2 – Highland Heather and Boho Blue; Stencil #3 – Gorgeous Grape; Stencil #4 – Boho Blue; and Stencil #5 – Boho Blue.
  • The truncated sentiment, Here’s to Beautiful Beginnings, from the Something Fancy stamp set was stamped with Gorgeous Grape ink.
  • Using the Trellis Stencil from the retired Foursquare Decorative Masks set, a very light application of Boho Blue ink was added with a Blending Brush.

All elements were adhered to the card base to resemble the sketch.  The Matted Focal Panel was popped up with Dimensionals and a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels were added for a bit bling.

A lovely wedding card.
