Well,
with my eldest nephew's wedding anniversary fast approaching and
following on the theme of co-ordinating a card to the colour scheme they
had on the day - it was an easy task for me as Stampin Up is co-ordination with a Capital 'C'!
From the punched shapes, to the cardstock, to the backing papers and embossing folders and embellishments - they have them all.
My
choice was governed by their's - and Island Indigo as the main colour
just fitted the bill, and offset against white. I think it all worked
perfectly together. This is what I came up with, and apologies for the
photographs!
Whisper
white for the card with a matted/layered centre panel of Island Indigo
topped with a strip of toning paper from the Quatrefancy DSP range.
I
punched a series of mosaic shapes, topped these with the small heart,
and finished the sides of the card with the smaller hearts using the two
step owl punch.
My
sentiment was layered on strip of white cardstock, run through the
hearts embossing folder. I sponged the edges prior prior to making a
small snip at each side to help locate the baker's twine trim.
... and
to finish the inside I just opted to stamp a little heart at the top
right just to tie it all in with the hearts theme I had used everywhere
else - leaving me plenty of space to write them a little congratulatory
note..
Hope they liked it.
