8 x 8 Card Blank
1st layer White Card Stock cut to 7.75 sq,
I pierced around the edge and then attached flat to the card blank.

Next layer I cut a piece of White Card stock  to 6,75 sq then using the Graceful Pink Mica Powder and the Butterflies in Flight Background Stamp I created the background.


Sentiment :-   

Using the outer Cordoba Die I cut out a Plain White and a Graceful Pink, then layered these together and attached to the card using pads.

Using the middle die from Labels Twenty Eight I cut this out in Plain White and attached to the card again using pads.

Then using a Spell Binder Die ( the name escapes me at the moment, but I will post later) I cut out and stamped the Sentiments from the Baroque Sentiment Collection and attached to the card using pads.

To create the flowers I cut out 8 using the two smallest dies and scraps of paper from the graceful pink, moulded and curled the petals then glued together.

Next I cut out 2 fronds using Petite Vinery and attached all these to the card.
  
Finishing Touches   

Using Graceful Pink P.V.A.   added pearls to the centre middle die and Graceful Pink Twinkles around the sentiment. I then added a small Dazzler to each flower and finally added Stickles to the petals.

Matting & Layering

I started with an 8 x 8 Cream Card Blank

 Using the Border Die I cut both sides of the 19 cm x 20 cm Burgundy layer and attached this flat to the base card. Then I attached the 14 cm x 19 cm Cream Layer using pads to give it dimension, followed by the 13.5 cm x 18.5 cm Burgundy Layer which I glued flat. Taking the last Cream Layer 13 cm x 18 cm I stamped each corner using Aged Mahogany Distress Ink, again attaching this flat to the card.

Using a piece of Burgundy Card I cut out the Topper from the Spanish Collection Seville Die, and attached this to the card again  using pads, then for the Sentiment I used  a stamp from The Baroque Collection and stamped onto a piece of Cream Card using Aged Mahogany Distress Ink. Then I cut it out and attached again using pads

Flowers

Using up leftover card I cut the flowers using Spellbinder Blooms 3

I shaped these before gluing together, then attached to the card.
Finally I added Stickles around the edges of the petals and a Dazzler to the centre of each flower.

A4 White & Silver Embossed Wedding Card

Good Morning Everyone,

Todays card is a Wedding Day Card in White and Silver Embossed  A4 format.

I hope you all like it too.


Products Used (which are links to the items on Phill's Website too)

Plain White Cardstock
Decadent Damask Occasions Stamps

For the Base
1x A3 Plain White Card Stock folded in half (21 x 29.5)
Then cut 2 layers - first layer 20.5 x 29
second layer 20 x 28.5
Cut 2 strips for centre panel 6.5 x 28.5 and 4.5 x 28.5

Matt and Layer

The first layer I left plain.
Second layer I stamped the corners and heat embossed, then used the embossing folder. Add both layers to the card.
For the centre panel I used one of the long stamps and heat embossed along the edges. The second strip I put through the embossing folder.

Focal Point
Using a plain piece of card, stamp and heat emboss using the rectangle stamp, then cut this out. Cut a rectangle using the die, then stamp sentiment and heat emboss. These are then added to the card using pads to give dimension.



Flowers   

I cut a large amount of flowers using offcuts of white card and moulded these before gluing together.
Once dry I added twinkles around the edges of the petals
and a gem to the centre.
The butterfly I layered and added twinkles.

Finally to finish the card I made a bow using Seam Binding (no prizes for guessing who taught me lol) and added a gem and stick pins.
