Wedding Carriage

Challenges

Lili Of The Valley (4) - Sketch (DT Card)
Ooh La La (47) - Love
ABC - O is for One Paper

This week at LOTV we have a lovely sketch for you to follow, I have turned it around for my card. I decided to try a wedding card this week and used one of the new LOTV Spring stamps that are selling fast. This one is called 'Wedding Carriage' which I think is delightful. I also wanted to try out a slightly different colour scheme, what do you think? Does it work?

The base card is cream/gold pearl card and what looks brown is in fact bronze/gold pearl card. The backing paper is gold pearl that I embossed with a Cuttlebug folder. The flowers are punched with pearl centres. The image has been coloured usingpencils and Sakura stardust pens for the bride's dress and veil. I finished it off with some matching organza ribbon down the side. Hope you like it.
