Winning Wedding Card

A few weeks back I did a post about wedding cards and offered a little guessing game challenge to see if anyone would pick the same card as my customer.

Well, on Thursday, I went to teach a class with that customer and here's the card she chose.......drum roll.......ta da.....

I'm quite pleased because this was my design, but sadly we didn't get a winner :(  

Interestingly, while the customer also liked the other two, she said the reason she chose this one was because it was quite unusual and she liked the presentation with the envelope appearing as part of the card.

Thanks to everyone for having a go.  Keep an eye out for future challenges!

Have a great weekend!

Wedding Cards

I was asked to make a wedding card for a Grandmother to give her grand-daughter on her special day.   She gave me a brief  but I couldn't decide which I liked best, so thought I'd let her choose.

Here they are:

This first one is a CASE from a card I saw on Pinterest by Amy O'Neill.  You can find her card here.
I love the elegance of this card and particularly the dyed flowers - I used Perfect Plum.

I got the idea for this on Pinterest also, but have changed it quite a lot.  The original was created by Daniela Sucker from Germany but I can't link to it because it was on an internal Stampin' Up! blog.  Sorry!
It uses the Floral Framelits - the largest one to make the base of the card.    The combination of Elegant Eggplant & Crumb Cake is lovely, and it's nice to make a different shaped card.

 Lastly, this card uses the envelope as a unique way of showcasing the card.


You use the "Mr & Mrs" frame to pull the card up out of the envelope.  The grandmother is known for loving violets and wanted flowers incorporated so this one has that little extra something inside.

I don't know which one she'll pick, so I'll pop back and let you know when she does.  Which one do you think she'll pick?  How about we have a little competition?  Vote here in the comments and the winner will get a gift from me!

Cheers
