Wedding Day

Happy Monday everyone!
Well it is really turning in to a lovely day here in (literally) sunny Bolton! Unfortunately (or not...) I'm having to wait in for the postman as I am waiting for some ink for my printer to be delivered, and I suspect it will be too big for my letter box. So I am using the time very wisely...cardmaking! :D
Keiran is currently watching Little Einsteins and reading Ben 10 books so I have a little time to get on with crafting.
And I've already done the ironing this morning as I was up early because my wonderful Italian neighbour popped by with some of her homemade Tiramisu! Mmmmm....PROPER Tiramisu...it just doesn't get any better! ;)
 Anyway, back to the point of my blog...

Here is my creation for today, which I would like to enter as my final submission to the Less is More Pastels Challenge and my first for the Totally Gorjuss Sketch (Challenge 70)


The reason I have entered this into Less is More's challenge is because all my entries on this blog are the simplest cards I've ever made and I wanted to prove to myself that something a little bit more 'fussy' can also be CAS. I hope you agree!
The main image is a LOTV cute square from their wedding pack, the papers are Love Letters and the pearls are from a nail art kit from Poundland, though they were white so I coloured them using my Cocktail Pink Promarker. The sentiment is printed in Scriptina font.

I hope you like it...I am now going to try and so some male cards for some orders I have....afraid I'm just not very good at them!

See you all later, if I manage to get my new creations on here :)

PS...Postman's just been! :D

  2. Hi Lizy,
    What a pretty image... it's almost ethereal... the card is lovely, but I feel that the paper is just a little too strong for that fabulously gentle image.
    It's a great layout and the sentiment is super!
    Thanks so much for your second submission!

  3. Hi Chrissie!
    Thank you so much for your comment...I might try the same card but with a different, more subtle paper. I think you are right...it's an image that lends itself to very faded, whispy kinds of colours.
    I appreciate the constuctive comments...it helps me get better! :)
