This week's CAS challenge is to make a square card. I love square cards so this was a lot of fun for me!
I needed to make an engagement card for some friends of ours who recently found love a little later in life (he's over 70 but has the fitness and zest for life of a 30-year-old!). They love to go dancing together so I bought this stamp with them in mind at the weekend.
I embossed the image in gold onto ivory card, then embossed the dress in gold onto gold vellum paper and pieced it onto the main image.
The sentiment is also gold-embossed, then the panel is layered onto ivory and gold card. I finaly added an ivory satin ribbon.
Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by!

this is gorgeous. It reminds my of The Great Gatsby. I love the elegant color scheme and the symmetry of the layout. Just beautiful!
