This was a request from a girl I work with. She wanted a wedding card made with the colors of the wedding. I saw the invitation, it is lovely. This was a long process as nothing seemed to 'work' for some reason. Then I 'got it' and this finally came about. I cut up the entire sheet of the beautiful shiny blue cardstock with trial and error. Luckily I salvaged enough to get the look I wanted. The gold paper under the blue is a thick velum with shiny gold flowers and swirls on it. Unfortunately it no longer has the company name on it. I ran all the blue peices through the CB with swirl folder and used a small CB love/heart folder for the tag. Added gold ribbon and bow. Now, if only she likes it....TFL. : )

Exactly what I'm talkin' about, Mrs. Therese jakester! I am totally impressed with your vision and your amazing ability to take paper and create a card like this. This rates right up there with the most spectacular card I've seen in the gallery. Trust me, she'll be just as overwhelemd when she sees what's you gone and done.

....what a spectacularly creative card!!!!! It's gorgeous. I'm sure your friend will love it. I love the way you did the five big linked hearts with the 'random' gold one....then the little offset blue embossed heart on the left....I think maybe I'm rambling....this is really a work of art,Terese....I love it.

...sure it�s got a catchy beat, but can you stamp to it?
life is something that happens only when you run out of cardstock
