Pretty print engagement card …

Hi Everyone

Gosh – is it really Wednesday again already? The weeks are really flying by.  So it must mean it’s time to share another card with you…

Silver heart congrats

Silver glimmer paper and the heart framelits from Stampin’ Up! made a pretty centre piece for this engagement card. 

I really love the designer series paper and the way the dry embossing turned out for the background too.

The whisper white organza ribbon added a touch of softness and texture to the card. 

And how gorgeous is the pretty print embossing folder?! It’s available in the current seasonal catalogue if you want (read that as “need”) to get your hands on one.  

I’ve been using it on some Christmas cards too, so do pop back again soon to see those too. 

Here’s what I used to make today’s card – all supplies from Stampin’ Up!:

cardstock: whisper white, silver glimmer; stamp sets: itty bitty banners; inks: basic grey; accessories: quatrefancy dsp, whisper white organza ribbon, stampin’ dimensionals, glue dots, heart framelits, pretty print embossing folder, bigshot machine.

Thanks for dropping by today

A little bit of glimmer for a sparkling engagement …

It was such a pleasure to make the card I have to share with you today.  I made it for my daughter to send to her friends who just got engaged. 

I started with a square card base and some quatrefancy designer series paper – I just love the daffodil delight pattern – I think it is such a gorgeous, bright and cheerful colour.  For the embellishments, I played with different sizes of heart framelits from Stampin’ Up! to cut out the heart from silver glimmer paper …

I couldn’t find an engagement sentiment in my stash, so used the congratulations from the itty bitty banners set instead.

Finally, I tied a length of whisper white organza ribbon around the card and added a hand-tied bow with mini glue dots. I seriously love this ribbon – it ties so beautifully and sits perfectly on any card.
