Love is...

This card was made for a friend's wedding. The wedding was to be a clean and simple affair, with lemon and grey as the colours. I have tried to echo that in this card.
The base is an 8x8 scalloped card blank, I have matted and layered with silver/grey card, yellow centura pearl and also white centura pearl. It is difficult to see from the image here, but the sentiment is sat behind the large white embossed layer. To create this effect I have measured the white card top panel, cut the aperture out (Spellbinders Vintage Labels 2) and then embossed the whole panel with an Embossilicious  folder (Regency Swirls). This has been mounted with large decoupage pads onto the lemon layer. I have used the Justrite Grateful Heart Vintage Label 2 Stamp Set to stamp the inside shape and chosen a sentiment from the same set for the centre. All stamped elements were heat embossed with detail powder. I have used the same dies again to cut a border for around the aperture. The flowers have been cut from Sue Wilson's Quilled Blooms set and the bow is from Sue Wilson's Filigree Bow set. I have used the same 3 colours throughout the card, bows and pearls for continuity. The faux stitching has been drawn by hand.
