love in pink

a friend's daughter is getting married this weekend, and I love to make wedding cards - with happy endorphins gushing around my system as I picture the couple making this wonderful commitment of a lifetime....... 

card's design and colour combination was inspired by this week's retrosketches challenge #116 and the colour throw down challenge #294 colours (and such delicious colours they are)

the 'Love' sentiment was die-cut using Penny Black's Love & Joy creative die, and inlaid into the beige patterned circle (die-cut using Spellbinders Nestabilities - Beaded Circles)
which was mounted onto the scalloped square (using the die-cut from Lifestyle Crafts - Nesting Scallop Squares)

with valentine's day just round the corner, this is a great time to create cards with the 'love' theme.... and a great time to send these 'reminders' to loved ones!

- the heart was die-cut using Hero Arts' Fancy Dies - Renaissance Heart

- the banner was stamped using Paper Smooches - Streamers stamp set, and embossed in silver powder

- the word 'Love' was die-cut using Penny Black's Creative Dies - Love & Joy 

this card was based on this week's CAS(E) this Sketch #63

and using the colours set out in ColourQ Challenge #227
