Hi Stampers. I was recently asked if I had any wedding cards for sale. I’m embarrassed to say I did not. So, that gave me the chance to go play around int he office and come up with a few. This is one of the ones I created using the Bloomin’ Heart thinlit die.

This card starts out with a Very Vanilla card base, 8.5″ x 5.5″, scored at 4.25″. (Exciting news – the new catalog will over a thicker (80lb) version of the Very Vanilla card stock that will be perfect for card bases!) Next up is a 5.25″ x 4″ layer of Gold glimmer paper. I used a 5″ x 3.75″ layer of Very Vanilla card stock to cut out the heart on the Big Shot using the Bloomin’ Heart thinlit die. After cutting it out, I removed the little pieces from the cutouts and inserted it back into the layer and attached that layer, with the heart, onto the Gold glimmer paper with the mini glue dots.

For the sentiment, I used the Wedding Wishes phrase and the frame around it from the Rose Wonder stamp set. I inked it with versamark ink and used gold stampin’ emboss powder and heated it up with the heat tool. I then cut it out using the c0-ordinating framelit from the Rose Garden framelit dies. I attached that to the card front using the stampin’ dimensionals. I also added a few pearl basic jewels to add richness to the card.

On the inside of the card I embossed the sentiment (using another stamp from the Rose Wonder stamp set) using versamark ink and the gold stampin’ emboss powder and the heat tool. I feel the gold embossing gives the card a much more elegant feel.
