Wedding card

Hi all,  A quick post today as still making stuff for my stall.  I made this wedding card yesterday with some new dies.  Memory box heart and spellbinders splendid circles.  Cut these out in white pearly paper end embossed with a mica embossing powder - it gives it a mother of pearl look which I like.  I backed the heart with a pale lilac paper and cut some more circles out of the same to double up the circles - offset ( you can't really see that in the picture.  added some pale lilac ribbon.  background is pearlised card embossed with the hougie board the outside is pierced and I added some pearls.

Red again

Morning all

Here I am again with more of the red pearly card (LOL).  I did get some more colours yesterday ha ha

This picture definitely doesn't show the work behind the middle very well .

I inked pearly card in pink and the ran a white piece through an embossing folder for the background.  I cut some circles with spellbinder dies ready to layer up.  Behind the red circle are two more that have I scored into sections, cut one sect up to the middle, fanfolded both and stuck them together.  Basically its like two fans stuck together to form a circle.  I think it looks ok.  It's the samed trick I used on the 65th wedding annversary card.
