Happy Ever After.....

Hi Crafters,

Time continues to fly by and this is the first chance I have had in between DT posts to share the card I created for my daughter and son-in-laws wedding.

Their wedding theme was white and green with lots of foliage in the decoration and so I thought the 'Lady' Mintay papers would work well for their card.

I fussy cut lots of the flowers and elements from the papers and layered them around the central shaker element which I filled with pearls and green glitter to match the colour theme. The gold hearts and wedding rings were cut from another paper collection.

I can't wait to see the official photos of the day. I didn't get many opportunities to take any photos with my phone and it was such a wet, dull and windy day that any snaps I did take didn't come out well - but I'll leave you with one of them cutting the cake in the evening.



Have a great Wednesday!
