Wedding Beauty

 

Beautiful isn't it?  Thanks to Wendy for sharing.  This is so elegant & crisp.

 

The sentiment is from the CURLY CUTE stamp set.  The white ribbon is the 5/8" ORGANZA RIBBON. 

The embossing folder is ELEGANT BOUQUET.  You run the cardstock through the BIG SHOT and get that flower texture.  The birds have the polka dots...and those are made with the PERFECT POLKA DOTS embossing folder. 

The BIRD BUILDER punch:

 

Other punches used:  1 1/4" SQUARE PUNCH, 1 3/8" SQUARE PUNCH, HEART TO HEART PUNCH.

Have a great day!  Lori :)

My garden is growing and growing!  The sunflowers are blooming and I so love this!!!

 
 

SIGN UP to be a demonstrator by the end of the month.  GREAT SPECIAL!!!  Join my team and we can go to Convention together next summer.  It is a great time full of fun and energy!! 

Sign up to join a club (stamping card club or scrapbook club)

Happy "I Do" Day!

I think the sentiment "Happy I Do Day" sums it up.....isn't that one of the happiest days of your life?

I saw a similar card at Leadership and wanted to make it.  Here it is...

 

The colors are SAHARA SAND, BASIC BLACK and WHISPER WHITE.  It is a great classic card that can be adapted for any occasion!  The FINIAL PRESS EMBOSSING FOLDER is used on the white layer. That really gives it a great look.  Do you see the sparkle on the ring?....that is a rhinestone placed just right.  I used white ribbon to tie around the card and then just a scrap piece of 1/8" black ribbon to add into the knot.

 
The saying is from the stamp set WORD PLAY...it is full of lots of great sentiments!

 

So...how many years have you been married?  We have hit the 17 year mark.  In June it will be 18 for us :)

Have a great day!  Lori :)

Here Comes The Bride...

What a fantastic idea for a wedding card!  Use the FULL HEART punch to accent the bride and the groom.  This works so slick!

Thanks to Tami for giving me this idea.  I need to make a few wedding cards.

Have a great day!  Lori :)

More Cards To Share...

Just a few more cards to share with you.  These are swaps I received in the mail.

The textured background is made with an embossing folder...then sponge some ink on it.  Great technique to try!  The designer paper looks like newsprint...great new addition to the catalog!  Yummy!  I want to try and make some jewelry inserts for my necklace with that paper.

A delicate card for the bride.  This card also has a texture with an embossing folder.  When you do it white on white it is more subtle.  Notice the bead on the dress.  We now have a full sheet of half pearls and half rhinestones for your projects.  They already have adhesive on them - yeah!!

Have a great day!  Lori :)

Have a great day!  Lori :)

The Wedding Card

I posted this one a while back...but with the wedding season upon us, it just seems right to do it again.

Do you need a wedding card???

 
This uses the BRIDE and the GROOM SPECIALTY PAPER.  You can see complete instructions for this card if you click HERE.  It also gives you the pattern so you can trace it :)

Have a great day!  Lori :)

The Matchbox Die

This project uses the MATCHBOX DIE for the BIG SHOT.  It cuts out the top piece and the bottom piece to form the matchbox.  Plus it also cuts out 3 tags....the "love" is stamped on one of the tags.  Thank you to Alexis for making this project!!

A different way to finish this box....instead of taping the top piece together to make a slider piece...you can attach it so that it is a lid to the box.  Check it out!

 
Have a great day!  Lori :)

Want to join Stampin' Up! as a demonstrator?  It is a great time to do so.  The starter kit is $169, plus you get an extra stamp set of your choice (up to $47.95). 

Wedding Favors

These have a wedding them to them...but they could be adapted for any occasion.  Thanks to Alexis for sharing them.  :)

Little box made with the MATCHBOX Die and the BIG SHOT MACHINE.

How clever to use an INITIAL on the box.  I can see so many ideas going on here!

I didn't take a picture of the inside of this project...but it is a slim project...and could hold a photo, a Ghiradelli chocolate, a packet of bird seed...

Take a look at the pattern to this one....form a little triangle and leave a little bit of paper to fold over and it holds it all together.  The chocolate kisses inside are stinkin' cute!

With any of these projects it would be so easy to adapt them to make them your own.  I love the little pieces of ribbon added........makes it extra special.

Have I inspired you to try any of these?  Have a great day!  Lori :)
