Vanilla is my flavour of the month!!

or so it would seem as I am using alot of the neutral shades in my cardmaking at the moment lol. Been up since before the crack of dawn, the thunderstorms didn't materialise (I do like a good humdinger of a thunderstorm too), and now it's daylight we have what promises to be another glorious day here on the southeast coast. Anyway, back to the plot as they say! Here is a wedding card that I created yesterday inbetween going to work and taking aged parent to a hospital appointment. Now I didnt have this card in mind when I started (sounds a bit familiar) and maybe the roses in the corners are a twee step too far - I'm not sure but I'd love to hear your opinions on it.
The centre topper (Wedding arch and foliage arrangement) was die cut using my Silhouette SD machine, oval diecut using a large spellbinders die, polka dot acetate, lattice silkart hunkydory cardstock, gold mirror card and the pale lemon / cream pearlescent swirly card are from stash as are the little roses and babies breath flowers.

As always, thanks for taking the time to pop in and say hello. xxx

  11. Isn't it funny how you sometimes seem to have a color of the week. Mine this week has been blue. I just love the neutral tonings of your card and it is so elegant and perfect for a wedding card with the beautiful design and embellishments. I am sure the recipients are just going to love it! I know I do. xx
