I used the Musical Flourish embossing folder on white card stock. I selected an area to punch out a heart. I used a glue pen on the raised embossed area and then used dazzling diamonds glitter to create a bridal dress effect; I added diamond gems to the edge, using a oval gem at the center. Next I punched a black and a white heart out. I took the black heart and cut a slit down from the top and folded the edges over to form the "collar". Then I adhered to the white heart. I used the smallest pearls I had and colored them with black permanent marker before adding them to the white "shirt". I used a vellum bow tie that I had (store bought). I used the next size up pearls for the "suit jacket". The "suit" heart was adhered to a grey heart, with just the edge of grey peeking out. The "bride" heart was adhered to a black heart. The groom was adhered to white card stock layered on black CS. The bride was put on with dimensionals overlapping the groom heart. I used a engagement ring vellum paper adhered to white CS. I used a glue stick to adhere it, seems to work best. I cut a rectangle piece from the embossed white CS and adhered it to a black base and then the vellum layer. I added the vellum sticker quote to white CS layered on black, trimmed around it and adhered to other layers. Added bride/groom heart layers. Took white and black ribbon and tied a knot in middle, tucked ends under vellum layer and then adhered vellum layer to black card base. Tied a bow in black/white ribbon and used glue dot to put it over the 'knot'.

Beautiful. Love, love the two hearts you made for the bride & groom. Great work on them. Love the attention to detail. The background paper is so sweet. I like the tying of the black & white ribbon together. Well done! Like it? I do. TFS

Wow! Beautiful dimensional wedding card. Those hearts are so cute as bridal wear and I love the embossing. Thanks for reminding me that I still need to make a card for my niece's wedding this Saturday and I only have two days left to do it as I fly out there on Thursday.
