Two weddings in two weeks at the office... What were the odds!
My boss called me at my desk this afternoon to kindly ask if I would make a wedding card. (Actually, his words were "We can't very well buy a regular card at the drugstore when we know we have someone so talented among our staff...") I guess he really did like his birthday card after all. ;)
I'm not sure what the wedding colors are, so I decided to go with Roses in Winter since you can never go wrong with that set.
It's hard to read in the picture, but I stamped "Celebrate Love" with the Wonderful Words set at the top, and embossed it in pale gold powder. I got those stamps back in the days where SU! only sold English sets and now that I have French sentiments available, I really don't use that set much anymore. The couple speaks English, so it was a great opportunity to use stamps I don't generally get to use.

Stunning! I love your soft color choices. You've convinced me that I can no longer put off owning that set! The happy couple (and your boss) will be so pleased with your beautiful creation!

Stunning was the word I was going to use also. This is just gorgeous! I love everything about it but especially the luxurious colors and the scalloped edging, and of course the matching envelope. The lovely couple MUST save this in their wedding album!

Wow .. this card is fabulous. Love the colours and the stamp you've used. It's definitely a keeper.

Oh, my! This is so elegant and beautiful! Love how that one main rose really stands out...it looks so real...and how you added that extra touch by decorating the envelope, too!
