This is for today's TECHNIQUE LOVERS CHALLENGE # 280 - Paper Posies. This is also for today's CLEAN AND SIMPLE CHALLENGE # 74 - Celebrating Carries Cakes. Oh man those wedding cakes are just gorgeous especially "Ashley". So when I saw these 2 challenges I knew I had to CASE another one of Charlene's CAS beauties that I had in my list of "which one to use" from Sunday's FEATURED STAMPER CHALLENGE # 179 - cookiebaker. There were many who used this WONDERFUL FRIEND and now I am added to that list. LOL. When I first saw it Sunday I knew if I used that card I would make a wedding card. It took me longer to make it up to my crafty cave then it did to make this which was good because I needed to get to work earlier than usual today. I used some textured white cs for my 4x4 base. I embossed some white cs with cuttlebugs swiss dots. I cut and embossed Labels 3 using white cs. Secured some sheer white with delicate design and gold trimmed ribbon around the swiss dots and labels 3 layers. I used a gold heart brad to secure 5 layers of white daisies that I did not punch but someone did punch out of rough textured paper of some kind and secrured it to the labels 3 layer. The labels 3 layer is popped up on dimensionals. Inside is "BEST WISHES" embossed in gold ep and I was done. I love how it turned out and I hope you do to.
ETA: It always helps to read entirely before creating. Sorry Holly I did not see the part about not using punches or pre-mades. I will do better next time. Please don't send the challenge police after me.
