Pretty In Pink Wedding Card

Hello and happy November! The year is certainly flying by. Well, instead of a summer wedding, I just attended the Autumn wedding of a couple who are like my own children. It was beautiful and I am so happy for them. I made this card for their happy day, and thought I'd share it, as it's loaded with Ranger and Tim Holtz goodies. Hope you enjoy.
Onto the craft sheet, I dabbed on Picket Fence, Antique Linen, and Brushed Pewter Distress Paints, misted with water, and dredged watercolor cardstock through. Then I dried it.
I stamped the Love definition over and over the cardstock with Hickory Smoke Distress Archival Ink.
I added Worn Lipstick and Victorian Velvet Distress Paints on the craft sheet, added water, mixed them a little, and then swiped only the top edge of the cardstock in, and let the paint run down. I let it dry.
Onto a heavystock tag, I dredged the same pink mixture from the last step, onto the tag, and let it dry.
I stamped the doily images onto Plain Tissue wrap with Antique Linen Distress Paint, several times while overlapping. I let it dry.
I stamped the bride onto heavystock and on the doily images with Jet Black Archival. I cut them both out, and adhered the tissue bride onto the cardstock bride, with Multi Matte. Now her dress is laced.
I painted in the rest of bride with Distress Paint and a detailed waterbrush.
Taking the dried pink tag, I die cut the roses, and rolled them up, and made leaves from dark green cardstock.
I adhered crinoline and then roses on top of that. To finished I mounted the card on Metallic cardstock, and added the sentiment.
 
 
 
I'll be back soon! Until then, love the ones you have deeply!!!

  2. Just beautiful and I loved the idea of making your own color for the roses. Intellectually, I know this but I "forget" so thanks for the reminder. Keep up the creative work and inspiration to us all.

  6. Absolutely an amazing Anita wedding card masterpiece. Really fantastic. The lace on the wedding dress is a brilliant idea! I love the poured paint at the top and all the layers. Wow! Sorry I haven't been around much lately my friend. Trying to catch up today :) Hugs -- Mary Elizabeth
