All in White Wedding Card

Annie’s Ink-Lings

Hi there, Card Makers,

I was recently asked to make a wedding card for a friend whose daughter is getting married.  Since I've only made a few wedding cards, I really had to put on my creative thinking cap to design a special card.  This is why card making is so addictive for me - I just love the creative process.  Here is the result.

I used bright white for the card base and Star Dream shimmery paper for the embossed layer which is just a bit off-white.  The sentiment on the front and inside were created with my computer and then printed on white card stock, and cut to size.

In an all-white card, it's kind of hard to see the dimensional aspect of the card.  To give a 3D effect, I glued two wing die cuts together before gluing onto the birds.  The bottom bird is glued to the card, but I used mounting tape to add the top bird.  Then finished it off by adding pearls for the eyes.  I'm pleased with the result and just hope my friend is too.
