Flourishing Phrases Wedding Card

Weddings seem to wait for Spring just like the rest of us, and with the promised sunshine and (dare I say it) double-digit weather this weekend, I was inspired to create a wedding card.  It could also do double-duty as a shower card.


I used the Flourishing Phrases stamp set and coordinating dies.  This set is so fantastic, as it includes a ton of sentiments as well as images, so you can make a complete project with just one set.

I Ĺ•eally wanted to keep a soft, tone-on-tone colour palette for this card, so I used only Whisper White and Very Vanilla cardstock in my design. 


I layered two die cuts from the Flourish Thinlits (one each in white and vanilla) on top of a Thick Whisper White card base.  It reminds me of the detail you find on wedding dresses, the bits of elaborate lace layered over luxurious fabric.

I lightly tapped a piece of my doily against my Versamark pad, and embossed just a bit of gold on the very edge.  I think it looks very vintage!


These doilies are about to retire, so get them while you can!

I also embossed my "congratulations" sentiment in gold on a small strip of whisper white, and adhered it to my card base with dimensionals.

A whole bunch of Pearl Basic Jewels in various sizes added just the right final touch.  Those pearls always remind me of tiny covered buttons on fancy dresses!

I stepped up the inside of my card as well, although it is difficult to see in the picture.  I stamped the flourish image from the Flourishing Phrases stamp set on the lower left corner on a piece of Very Vanilla mat, and embossed it in gold as well.


This card has just the right amount of sheen and polish to suit any wedding!

The retiring list has been posted and there are some new items on the Clearance Rack, so be sure to check out all the goodies before they are gone!  I am featuring retiring products on my Instagram and Facebook posts each day, so please follow me to see them all in action. You can place an order online through my store, or email me with any questions.


Have a great week!
