Wedding Card

Here I am with a card I wasn't expecting to make. I decided to get crafty today and make a card I really need.

This is the first wedding card I've ever made. Don't know why, just haven't. I was needing one and today was Featured Stamper today on Splitcoaststampers. The FS is Mary aka MaryR917 and I cased this white on white card of hers. Really, the only part I cased was the color. I had some dies I wanted to use so mine is quite different.

I rolled my roses using a Sizzix die listed below.

My card is entered into the challenge at Simon Says Stamp Challenge Blog-White on White

Recipe:
Stamps-None (inside only)
Paper-PTI white cardstock
Accessories-Cuttlebug textile embossing folder, Cheery Lynn Designs/Victorian Romance Flourish, Spellbinders Classic Heart, Sizzix Flowers-Bigz Die, white pearls, hot glue gun

Flourishes Timeless Tuesday #118-Inspiration Photo

My time as Guest Designer for the May FTTC challenges is flying by. This is my third week and the hostess for the Flourishes Timeless Tuesday challenge #118 is Tammy Hershberger.  She has given us this fabulous inspiration photo to work with.

The tutorial for this beautiful  paper flower topiary made by Julia Sandvoss can be found on her blog,  'Bits of Me..The Craft Mom' . What a wonderful creation!

I was inspired by the beautiful roses and colors and chose Flourishes DIY Topiary Stamp Set for my card this week. There are so many possibilites with this set. I stamped one of the pots and added the shrub-like topiary, coloring it green. I used another of the stamps in the set for the roses and colored, cut out each one, and glittered. I think it made a lovely topiary. I placed it against a brick wall embossing folder. I'm using a Spellbinders lattice rectangle die cut and a scalloped rectangle die.
Added the purple tulle and button to finish it.
