There are 2 variations of the sketch, one being intricate and one being CAS. Either one you choose will be fun. There are winners and prizes every week.
I have this stash of large flowers I bought on line that I'm still trying to use up. They are just too large for the size cards I normally make. This one is a 5.5 x 5.5 card so it could fit the darn flower.
I decided to go with a wedding theme since, even though the flower is large, it is very beautiful and perfect for a wedding card. I have no idea why I'm on a silver kick as of late. I rarely use silver unless for holiday cards. Just can't figure it out!
I used some SU wedding card shimmer dp, pearl swirls, a beautiful lacy ribbon that already had the tiny silver beads in it, my newest Spellbinder which I'm totally in love with, Eyelet Circles, and some small flowers, dimensionals, silver embossing for the greeting and image above it. I added a few silver leaves and popped up the first layer, the nestie layer and sentiment square on dimensionals. The SU scallop trim was used at the bottom of the dp. I added silver and pearl shimmer mist to the small flowers!
Well, I think that's about it. Hope you have a fantastic weekend!
