A few weeks ago I received a call from my sister who informed me that two of my friends went to Las Vegas and got married! My friends are very low key so this is definitely their style but all of their family and friends wanted to share in their wedded bliss so yesterday we attended their wedding reception! It was wonderful! Even though the did not want any gifts, I had to make them a little something to celebrate the occasion.
Going through my stamp collection, I quickly realized I did not have anything that was fit for a wedding reception, so I had to get a little creative and think outside the box.
I started started off with a Whisper White card base and added another Whisper White panel that is 1/2 inch smaller than the card base and popped the panel up with Stampin' Dimensionals. I cut out two hearts from the Cupcakes & Carousels designer paper (that is retiring and on SALE right now!) using my favorite die set, Sweet & Sassy Framelits Dies, and used my Stamping Sponges to ink the edges of the hearts in Chocolate Chip ink.
My favorite part of the card has to be the gold sequins that I positioned all over the card to give it that little extra bling using my Fine Tip Glue Pen.
I finished off the card with one item that is not Stampin' Up! and that is the sentiment which is from a set from Verve Stamps called Chevron Love. You better believe that once the new catalog is available June 1st that I will be purchasing a set fit for a wedding/anniversary but I'm so thankful that I had this set!
Don't Forget...
The retiring list is available until Wednesday! Everything is while supplies last so don't delay in getting your orders in! If you do a search on my site for something that you want and nothing pops up, that most likely means that particular item is sold out, and is no longer available. Don't forget to use the hostess code (located on my sidebar) on your order to get a little something from me as well. Happy Shopping!!Products Used
