Wedding Poem

Image
This was made a very special gift for some good friends who got married in December The cutting file is a free file from Paper Pulse that I cut using my Scan N Cut I also cut a mat out of gold metallic card to put behind the heart I made the card into a gate fold card and inside was a poem my sister had written for the couple The ribbon came on the wedding invites and as it had the date and the couples names on it I thought it made a good addition to the card I also made the envelope as it was 8 by 8 card Again  I used a piece of the ribbon to but on the label for the front My sister read the poem out just before they took their vows it was a wonderful day and now they are back from their honeymoon I thought it was save to share This card is for the following challenges Noor!

Simple Birthday

This card uses some patterened paper from my snippet drawer  I used my a built in image on my Brother Scan N Cut to cut the butterfly three times and a mat for the back of each butterfly from plain black card stock. I also used the Scan N Cut to cut the square mats in black and white The paper is black, white and gold and I have used metallic liquid pearls to add the bodies and antenna to the butterflies.
