CAS-ual wedding.

Having caught up on all the laundry and cleaning that obviously didn't get done while we were away, I thought I'd jump into one of my favorite weekly challenges: CAS-ual Fridays!



I flipped the sketch and hope I didn't veer too far away from it altogether...


I think this will be the wedding card that I give to my cousin for her upcoming wedding.  My mom already claimed this card for herself :)  This card was inspired by one I had seen on Carrie's blog some time ago.

I started out by stamping my kraft base with PTI's sheet music background stamps.  The next layer, SU's baja breeze cardstock, was stamped with the text stamp from PTI's background basics: hearts.  A-M-O-U-R was stamped using lawn fawn's quinn's abcs and colored in with copic markers.  I cut out the center of the letter "O" and popped the whole panel onto foam squares, allowing some room for glittery red hearts underneath.


I know it's quite casual for what will be a very elegant celebration, but that's never been my style - I love a quirkier wedding card!

  5. Oh those hearts. Love each & every one. Like how you used the twine to dangle the big one as well as the one by the cut out o.
