I hadn’t had an opportunity to use the Piece of Cake stamp set and Cake Builder punch and was inspired by the color challenge of Petal Pink, Mint Macaron and Calypso Coral at Hand Stamped Sentiments to create a wedding card. This summer I’ll be going to my nephew’s wedding and want to be ahead and get my card made. I like to have different types of cards handy so I made a couple of wedding cards with this color combo.
I used Whisper White as my card base then used Shimmery White for the second layer. It’s hard to see in the photo how pretty this paper shimmers. I used the Bokeh dots stamps from the stamp set Beauty Abounds to stamp the dots. The cake is stamped with Momento black then colored with Stampin’ Write markers. The cake plate is die cut from Silver Glimmer paper. The Calypso Coral two hearts were die cut using the retired Owl Builder punch. I colored the hearts with Clear Wink of Stella. It’s hard to see but I used small pearls on the flowers. The greeting is from the Piece of Cake set. The ribbon is from the new annual catalog, Petal Pink 5/8″ (1.6 Cm) Organdy Striped Ribbon. This ribbon is so pretty. The bottom of the layer is die cut using the edge die from Magnolia Memory Dies. I love how it finished the bottom of the layer. I’ll be using this edge on many of my cards. To highlight the edge I backed it with DSP from the Magnolia Lane set.
You too can play along at Hand Stamped Sentiments and see more inspiration from the design team.
