A4 WEDDING CARD AND BOX

Hi and welcome to all my very talented friends, and visitors.
Thank you so much for your visit, and time.
I really do appreciate your lovely comments on my work.
Well you know I said  on the weekend I was working on some wedding cards and boxes.
Here is the A4 size I made.




This is a A4 size card and box I made to fit.
The wedding couple I found on the internet, and printed onto Ivory Iridescent pearlised card.
When printed it came out as a grey line so I used Memento London Fog Ink to do my stamping so it tied in with it.
Made DL cards to go inside, and stamped them with London Fog Ink.
So all the staff could sign them.

Thank you again for your visit.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

WEDDING CARD BOX AND BAG

Hi and welcome to all my very talented friends,
and visitors.
I am sorry I have been missing for a week, but I
had family come to stay from up north.
I was hoping to get in a post before my family
arrived so I could let you know, but time just 
flew by as usual, and I just couldn't manage it.
We had a lovely week, and it was so good to see
them.
 The only problem was we had rain for 3 days
of that week, and a dreadful storm the one day 
with thunder and lighting, and lots of heavy rain.

I was asked by my daughter to make my usual
wedding set for a wedding she was going to.
So here it is the bridesmaids were wearing Teal
hence the Teal as I do like to incorporate it into
my creation.





This is a 8"x8" size card, box, and bag to fit.
I used aTeresa Collins embossing folder on
Centura White Pearl card.
The Teal card is from Creative Expressions.
I made the Roses, and Leaves.
I used The Enchanted Escapes Couture Dies
for the sentiments.
The wedding couple are Tattered Lace, and the
Mr and Mrs is a Tonic Die

Thank you for your visit, and comments.
I very much appreciate everyone you make.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

WEDDING CARD AND BOX

Hi and welcome to all my very talented friends,
and visitors.
So sorry I have been missing for a couple of days.
I have had lots of bits of house work to catch up
on, and a small amount of gardening,  to also 
catch up on.

My eldest sister in Wales the one that had the op
suddenly also asked me to make her this wedding
card, and box for her Grandson.
So I have just finished it.
On the card are some hand made roses I made
with the help of a wonderful blog friend Pamellia's
UTube Tutorial which you will find HERE.
I didn't have the Tim Holtz flower die she used 
so I used my Spellbinders Rose Creation Die, 
and you only need one size petal cut 6 times for
the whole rose.





This is a 8"x8" size card and box I made to fit.
I also made the leaves I used on the flower spray
using a method John Lockwood showed on C&C.
I didn't see the program, but I heard some blog
friends talking about how he had done it, so I 
had a go.
What I did was the paper I had wet, and
crumpled for the roses I rubbed DI in different
shades of green all over, and then cut out my 
leaves from the same Rose Die.
I then added some Fired Brick DI to the top 
edges.

Thank you so much for your visit, and the 
wonderful comments you make.
It means a great deal to me, and I am so pleased
you like my work.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

WEDDING CARD, BOX AND BAG.

Hi and welcome to my blog all my craft loving
friends, and visitors that may visit me.
Thank you for you visit, and the wonderful comments you make.
I very much appreciate every one that you make.

My creation today was inspired by a card Sue
Wilson showed on her blog, when she launched 
her new spring sets of dies.
My daughter and her fiancee were going to a wedding of and child hood friend of her fiancee's.
So this is what I created for it.
Sorry picture heavy again.





The card is a 8"x8" size, and box made to fit.
I went with Cream and Beige as the invite was 
in that colour.
Sorry about the picture of the inside of the card,
it came out a bit yellow, and I had great trouble
trying to photograph it, for some reason.
The Vintage Roses were from the works, and I
made the hat pin specially for the card.
The bell border was cut out on my ScanNcut
machine.
I do hope you like my take on Sue's wonderful
card.

Thank you again for you time.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

ANOTHER WEDDING CARD AND BOX

Hi and welcome to my part of blog land, all my 
craft loving friends, and visitors.
Before I go any further I need to welcome my
newest follower, and thank you so much for
being interested in my work.
I do hope you continue to pop back whenever
you have the time.
Sorry I missed welcoming you on my last post.

Thank you sooooooooo! much to all my wonderful, and talented followers who visit me
on a regular basis.
You are all so very kind, and make such fab
comments on my work, which makes me a very happy bunny.

Now onto my post for today I was commissioned 
to make this wedding card and box, for a lady 
that works with my daughter.
You might remember my A4 box and card for
the members of staff to send their wedding 
greetings, well this one went to the same couple.







This is a 8"x8" size card and box to fit.
I used the Sue Wilson Art Deco Fanfare 
embossing folder, and coloured the folder with
blue ink before embossing my pearl card to give
it a blue tint.
The roses I also coloured the edges with blue
ink to match.
The roses are I think from the Range, not sure
as my sister in Wales bought them for me.
I used some of my snippets pearl card to die cut
the corners, so I will be popping over to the playground with this.

Thank you again for your time, and visit.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

WEDDING CARD AND BOX

Hi to all my craft loving friends, and visitors.
Thank you so much for your visit, and comments.
I really do appreciate everyone that you make.

My granddaughter and my little great granddaughter's were bridesmaids on Saturday,
at my granddaughters best friends wedding.
Now the bridesmaids were wearing yellow, so I 
like to incorporate that colour into my wedding
cards.
So today I am showing the card I made for the
happy occasion.






The card is a 8"x8" size and box.
I used ivory pearlised card, and coloured my
card yellow with Pan Pastel.
I used a mask I have used before and coloured
the embossed detail yellow through the mask.
Now I used some snippets out of my snippets
box for some of the die cuts so I will be off
to collect the keys to the playground with this.

Thank you again for your visit and tome.
Lots of crafty love. JENNY.
