Blushing Bride: A Rosy Hued Handmade Wedding Card
Summer is quickly approaching and that means weddings--lots and lots of weddings! And who doesn't love lots of pretty flowers on a wedding card?
A rosy-hued wedding card for a blushing bride and her groom. |
One of the colors of my bonus sister's wedding was rose gold. It's a hard color to recreate with scrapbooking supplies when many of the supplies out there aren't of that color. So I went with various blush colors, adding in bits of red, yellow and orange for a blushing sunset-hued card.
Her bouquet was going to mimic Colorado wildflowers so I mimicked that with sprays of shaggy ribbon, flower soft and even a Colorado Columbine flower.
I used the same papers that I had used to make her bridal shower banner as the background of the card. I backed it with a doily and added a sentiment that was colored ever so slightly with a shimmery pink. I also added flower stamens colored with alcohol inks as well as pearls and a velum butterfly for accent.
