Today I want to share with you a Wedding (Anniversary) Card I made by request from friend. The card will be a gift for her friends, a couple who celebrate their 1st wedding anniversary today. Congratulations!!! :o)
I used BEAUTIFUL Stamping Bella 'uptown couple BRETT and BRENDA get married' rubber stamp. This is my second take on this stamp and also a CASE of the first card I made using the stamp (here). I went with same design, but I rotated a layout and went with completely different color scheme. My friend told me how couple was dressed on their wedding day, so I went with that.
I also used one of my favorite font I downloaded from dafont: Impact Label Font. Love it!! :o)
Important: Read licences before downloading.
I stamped the image on a watercolor paper, left it dry for couple minutes and colored the image in watercolor technique using Distress Inks.
I glued a note sheet paper stripe directly on a white top folded card base, trimmed the watercolor paper to preferable size, glued it on a 2 mm thick foam sheet rectangle and glued it on the card base.
I printed couple's names and wedding day date on a white cardstock paper (I used two different font sizes), cut them out, traced edges with black marker and got lovely labels, as if I had label maker. I added foam tape on the back of "labels" and glued them on the card.
As a finishing touch, I embellished the card with enamel dots, matching colors with colors used on the image. :o)
I'm very satisfied with my coloring and the whole appearance of the card. My friend loves it!! I hope the couple will like it also. :o)
