Congratulations on Your Special Day


This card was a commission and not the easiest card to make. It took me a week to come up with something but only because it had to be in black and white. I snuck in the greys and silvery bits because it wouldn't have worked otherwise but I think it turned out okay. If I had to do it again, I would dry emboss a frame into the black background. I used Mama Elephant's Femme Frames for the card base (technique shown in this video) and Bold Banner for the sentiment which is from the Water Blooms stamp set. The Man & Wife dies are from Papertrey Ink.


See you in a few hours for the Mama Elephant December Stampede! :)

That's really beautiful, Em. Using the femme frames adds an extra level of sophistication, I think. :)
