Your Special Day. Celebrate !

Hello.

Just wanted to share this birthday card I made for a special birthday.  I created a lever card...and there are quite a few pictures below!



The card front has a window and the centre panel works like a 'lever' that fits through the window.




If you're interested in the template for this Lever Card, you can find it HERE.

Congratulations on your Wedding Day

Hello.

I've got just a short post today.  I have a wedding card to share with you.



No designer/patterned paper used as I wanted to keep it all white (except for the dark grey frames).   I used an embossing folder for added texture.  Then embellished it with ribbon, diecuts, flowers, pearls, etc. for a more 3-D effect.

A closer look at this gorgeous Stamping Bella image being featured.  I luvvv this image!  


This stamp is called Uptown Couple Brett and Brenda Get Married (available from the Stamping Bella shop HERE.)
