Wedding Bells



It's Wedding Bells this week on A Spoonfull of Sugar Challenge, we would love to see your cards with Weddings in Mind, there are some fantastic cards by my fellow DT members to get you going and also our very own kind and extremely talented Nikki is offering a lovely prize from here new shop Bunny Zoes Crafts, I must say considering she only opened her web shop a short while ago she has some most delicious stuff to tempt us so why not go and visit.


Well I liked this card when I made it and I still like it IRL, but the camera has just not picked out the colours properly and the embossed and cut hearts don't look the silver grey they really are and the flowers and leaves look more lilac than pink. It also hasn't picked up the sparkle imparted by the Glimmer Mist on the Flowers, all in all a disappointment,

The Whiff of Joy Willow bride was stamped and masked then I stamped Oakley over her, they have been coloured with distress inks, when the inks were dry I went over Willows veil with Angel Wings Shimmerez, her dress with Opal Shimmerez and Oakleys Waistcoat and Tie with December Sky Shimmerez wow the effect is stunning, these Shimmerez must be my favourite buy this month. ( I have noticed I have just gone over the very edge of her face with the shimmerez Opps!!)


Recipe:
Stamps - Willow and Oakley from Whiff of Joy Womens Delight Collection
Colouring Medium - Distress Inks, Tattered Rose, Tea Dye, Worn Lipstick, Broken China, Soot Black. Shimmerez Opal, Angel Wings, December sky available from Susanas Custom Art and Card Designs
Papers - Papermania Blueberry Hill
Tools - Sizzix Heart Die
Embellies - Roses from Wild Orchid Craft sprayed with Angel Wings Glimmer Mist

Beautiful card, Jacqui! I love how you coloured the cute couple and especially love Willow's weddingdress. The hearts are beautiful and I love the flowers. I know what you mean about taking photos, sometimes the photos just won't look as they look in real life.
Have a great day
