It is June and with June comes lots of wedding showers and weddings. I've made so many wedding shower/wedding cards already this season I am running out of ideas.
My nephew is getting married later today. I was looking at his invitation this morning and immediately knew what I wanted to do for their card.
They are having a barn theme wedding and reception. Their invitation is above on the left (I've covered all the personal information). You can definitely see where my inspiration came from for this card.
I am so excited how it turned out. I simply used a piece of Kraft Cardstock and a woodgrain stamp to heat emboss the wood finish for the background. Then a simple doiley, some gold twine and a super simple tag.
A quick and easy stamp and hearts on the inside and project complete!
Of course a fun card needs a pretty envelope.
Stamp is by Simon Says Stamp

Hello, and thanks for stopping by! Today I have an elegant Wedding Card for you. I made this card using the Cricut Explore One.
'Tis the season for weddings and wedding showers and boy, do I have a lot in the new two months.
I needed a card that could be used for several occasions.
I made two different versions of this particular card. On the card above, I used the Cricut Pen tool and wrote the sentiment. On the Card below I used a stamped image by Stampin' Up and gold embossed the sentiment.
This card base could be used for so many occasions simply by changing out the sentiment and embellishments. Swap out the cluster of elements and insert a cupcake and candle and you've got a birthday card. Take away the birds and add a Mother's Day greeting and you've got a Mother's Day Card.
Here is a video tutorial showing you how to make this card and assemble.

I made this card using a Silhouette Cutfile for the birds and branches. The shape is from the Stampin Up Top Note Die. The papers are by Pink Paislee from the Daily Junque Collection (one of my all time favorites). You could easily use this as a Wedding Card, Love or Valentine card with a simple change of sentiment.
First of all, I totally cased This Card by Amanda Corbet. I just think it's the sweetest card ever. I thought I would try and use some tule and make a veil on my owl bride, but I just couldn't get it to lay right, I know it could be done, but I didn't have any more time. I've got a bridal shower to go to this weekend. Her wedding colors are grey and black, so this was perfect. I think I like Amanda's card better. I might have to sneak in a few minutes and try again.
