This is a first for me: DH asked me to make an A4 card, one of his staff is getting married and he asked for a card big ebough for everyone to sign. I've never made a card bigger than A5 before. He also asked for it to be fairly simple. Thank heavens for digis that can be resized easily! This is a
Shirleys2Girls digi, coloured with Copics and Distress Inks and lots of Stickles for bling. It's matted onto gold mirri and then bronze pearelscent card. I've used a Martha Stewart punch on the RH side and trimmed the card back to expose a strip of gold. Didn't intend to, but when I saw I'd put the image slightly off-centre I had to do something! Sadly we can't go to the wedding, DH is away that weekend, but I hope she'll like her card...
I'm entering the following challenges:
Create4Fun - use a digi
Allsorts - song title (White Wedding, Billy Idol)
Sweet Stampin' - diamonds are a girl's best friend
So so pretty! I love this stamped image...beautiful card!
