Sample Wedding Invites


Here is the same technique as yesterday but with two different colours. My little sis is getting married and I am going to be making their wedding invitations (aren't I a good big sister?) This is the style of invite that I am working on for them and the green and purple are their wedding colours. These are the proto types for them to look at and agonize over (as we all do for our weddings) The green powder has sparkles in it and I find that the definition in the flower isn't as pronounced.  The black on black adds a very sophisticated look to the card.  The purple on the other hand once again lets the flower really pop! I am still working on finding the perfect ribbon to go with these colours - so if you see something let me know!
 
I am going to have to do tone-on-tone stamping again because I like the subtle look it creates and how it doesn't distract from the rest of the card.
 
Gotta go and get the boys ready for bed. So until tomorrow.
 
Dee-vinely happy with these results

White on Black















 I have been playing around with different techniques and saw this one so decided to CASE it. (Copy And Share Everything - a new term, I heard it at my Team Meeting and I have always called it scraplifting but CASE works too).

For this piece I wanted to try stamping on black paper (something I have never done before!) I used the Regarding Dahlia stamp set (which is not retiring - thank goodness! I love this stamp set!) stamped with Versa Mark ink. I then stamped it on the black paper and covered it with snow embossing power (not stampin up but it is what I had around) I then took my heat tool and ta da! Got this beautiful result!! I love the detail in the flower and how it really pops off the page! Tomorrow I will show you colour on black.

Until then I am Dee-liteful yours,
Diana
