We attended a wedding yesterday. The wedding colors were Red, Black and White. I decided to try my hand at a wedding card shared by Loristamps a while back, putting my own modifications on her original.
I used lots of tiny pearls to outline the neckline and hem of the bridal dress but stuck with her idea of using the SU bride and groom paper. For the base and monogram, I used shimmer white paper for a richness. I used silver brads for the studs on the tuxedo shirt for the groom. SU white taffeta ribbon defines the waistline of the bridal gown, with some prima flowers and a red pearl. Lastly, I put the initial of the new couple to personalize this further. I hope they like it.
Thanks to Lori for sharing her idea and thanks for your comments.
