Whimsical Wedding Card



A friend asked me to make some cards for her, including a wedding card, so this is what I came up with. I used a SU! owl punch to create the bride and groom, adding a "tux" and "wedding gown" LOL I fussy cut the top hat and added a narrow strip of mirror gold card for the band, then added some tiny gold beads on the front of his "tux." For her gown, I used a retired SU! square lattice embossing folder on the snippets of white, adding pearls on the front of her gown. I fussy cut the headpiece and added a piece of tulle for the veil, along with some pearls and rhinestones. The red "Mr & Mrs" tag was done with a SU! Beautiful Bouquet stamp set and matching Bouquet Bunch framelit set and heat-embossed with silver ep. The sentiment is also from the same stamp set, also heat-embossed with silver ep. The owls wings were done with a SU! bird punch and I added snippets of green to the leaves on the branches. I placed it all on a Spellbinders Labels 25 die cut, and placed that on a panel that was embossed with a SU! Falling Petals embossing folder.
I added a snippet of SU! sparkling silver & white twine tied into a little bow on the tag for the finishing touch and added some glossy accents onto the punched eyes.

I'd like to enter this into the following challenges :




Thanks for stopping by and I hope your day is just perfect!
