I was asked this week to make a wedding card for this coming Saturday. The friends who asked for the card have a caberet act with the Groom based on The Rat Pack so they wanted a card that would reflect that. No pressure there then!
I took an A3 card and folded it in half for the base of my card. I then decided to make my own backing paper in Word made up of some of the song titles repeated across the page which I printed out in pale grey.
I then used My Craft Studio Celebrations Volume 2 for the decoupage roses. I passed my backing paper through the printer a second time to print the first layer of the decoupage. I then mounted this onto some black paper embossed with roses. I printed, cut and addedthe other layers of the roses.
I've added a white ribbon, white pearl hearts and a Marianne die cut butterfly with a body of crystals to finish off.
I thought this would be nice for the CD Sunday challenge this week of "Bling it Up".
What a lovely idea Jocelyn, I sometimes wonder what people think we are with the requests they come up with! This is indeed very nice for our challenge. Thanks for joining us once again at CD Sunday.

ReplyDeleteA very beautiful card on a tricky theme.. I love your take on it! Any comment on the Rat Pack takes me straight to thinking of Frank Sinatra, and then the rest of the day is wasted on YouTube!!!
