Weddings



Back again! The red option is a card I was asked to make for a couple who are getting married this month in Disneyland. I wanted to still keep the card about their marriage so only wrote Disney on the side just as a hint. The red heart is velvet and was cut on my QK. The PP is pp, layered red is Bazzill along with red mirri. Small red brads secured the sentiment. The image is my first use of a lovely Stampendous stamp I bought in January and only now got around to using.
I liked it so much I stamped up a couple more and chose violet as an alternative; using another new Stampendous stamp on the card in matching ink. The sentiment reads Congratulations and is a rub on by Pebbles Inc. I just wanted to try some bolder colours for these wedding cards and of course its a world away from the bitter chocolate Im using now on my current wedding stationery, it made a lovely change!
Im told by my printer hubby that certain shades of rich blue/indigo/violet cannot ever reflect their true colours when being photographed and Im definitely finding it to be true as I had to take about 20 shots of the violet one and even the one I chose isnt an exact match to reality!

Great image you used and I love it in the red though the lilac one is so elegant as well.
