Beautiful Bouquet meets Bouquet Bunch

Well Jenny's big day has arrived.

From 5:00pm tonight all our children will be married, she's so excited and so are her daughters, who are going to be bridesmaids.

It's 8.30 now and I'm enjoying my last few minutes of tranquility before they all arrive to get ready!

As for the card I went for simple and stylish. There's a lot of my old stash in this one.

I was inspired by a card made by Lou Katzelman

To recreate this card follow the guide below:
® = retired, (sab) = Sale-A-Bration, (H) = Hostess, (nsu) = not stampin’ up, (ss) = Stamp set, (DSP) = designer series paper, (CS) = Card Stock

Start with  a card base of Whisper White (cs) 17.5 x 25 cm scored at 12.5 cm

(my base card is (nsu)

Bride ® (dsp) measuring 12.3 x 17 cm

Silver Foil measuring 7 x 7 cm

Window sheet measuring 7 x 7 cm

Gorgeous Grape (cs) measuring 3.5 cm x 16.5 cm

Whisper White (cs) measuring 3.5 x 11.5 cm

Sahara Sand (cs) measuring 7 x 9.5 cm

• Make a window in the Bride ®  (DSP) using the 2 largest square shapes from the Stitched Shaped framelits 
• Place the (DSP) on top of the base card and using a light pencil, mark out the square on the base card
• Stamp the sentiment from the Beautiful Bouquet (ss) in Basic Grey inside the marked square then remove the pencil mark
• Stick the piece of Window Sheet at the back of the Bride (DSP) using Tear and Tape
• Adhere Foam Adhesive Strips around the window and along the edges of the (DSP) 
• Remove the backing from the strips at the bottom of the card and the bottom 3 sides of the square  but not the top of the square or card to the base card
• Insert the sequins into the square then remove the rest of the backing  paper and adhere the rest of the card down
• On the strip of Whisper White  Mr & Mrs from the Beautiful Bouquet (ss) in Basic Grey 
• Die cut the Mr & Mrs Using the Bouquet Bunch framelits die then die cut 3 fern leaves in Silver Foil, 3 small flowers in Whisper White, 4 small flowers in Gorgeous Grape, 1 larger flower in Gorgeous Grape and the stems in Sahara Sand
• Wind the metallic thread round the stems attaching the Mr & Mrs label and adhere to the card using liquid glue
• Add the 3 ferns, then the 3 white flowers, then the 4 small purple flowers also with liquid glue then larger flower in the middle using small dimensional pads and adding the Rhinestones as the flower centres. (Instead of rhinestones I used some small beads  I have in my stash.

Will be back with more cards soon
