A Wedding Card

Quick post this morning of the Wedding Card I made for my daughter and son-in-law!!  I used a SSW Sketch from a few week's back, a sweet Lili of the Valley stamp, some fun papers from a new 12 x 12 pad I bought, organza ribbon and some silky flowers from my stash.  The stamp is colored with Copics and embellished with some sparkly liquid shimmer from Close to My Heart.

Sharing my Card in the following Challenges:
Lili's Little Fairies - Shabby Chic
Make it Monday - Anything Goes
Word Art Wednesday - Anything Goes

One more photo to share of the happy coupe with their Wedding Cake - shows their True Love...

Sweet Sketch Wednesday 219

Hi there friends!!  My daughter was married this past Saturday...
What a busy but wonderful time!!  She married her childhood Sweetheart.  They are both now Gymnastics Coaches and met when they were 10 and 11 when Laura started attending the Gymnastics Club that Chad had been attending.  They started out as friends...  then dated... went to all of their Proms together, and are now Mr. and Mrs.  There were some bumps along the road, and a few years apart, but you can't deny true love.



 There was so much love all around!!  The day was extra special as it was my Mother's Birthday.  She is in Heaven, but I can't help but picture her (and my Dad) with huge smiles watching their Laura get married...
Love.

Now, on to my card for the latest Sweet Sketch Wednesday Challenge. I must apologize...  I did make the card the morning of the Wedding, and I guess I was a bit distracted...  I missed the embellishments at the bottom right of the Sketch, and I even created the Sketch...  oh well, guess I was suffering from Mother Of the Bride syndrome...  hmmm...

Sassy Cheryl's Challenge #169 Perfectly PINKalicious!!

Early morning card making - a GREAT way to start a Friday!!  Sassy Cheryl's Challenge this week is Perfectly PINKalicious!!  Love pink (love green more), but who doesn't love pink...?   Perfect Challenge to use a new paper pad I recently purchased from Lili of the Valley, "Perfect Pair" from the NitWit Collections, lots of PINK papers along with a touch of my favorite green ;-) !!

I chose this cute Sassy Sally image "Autumn Swing" (although I fussy cut the image and left the falling leaves for another time...  now it's a Spring Swing =), and colored her up with my Copics.  I used the Sketch from Sketch Saturday - lots of fun little details to this Sketch!!  The flowers are cut with a die from Taylored Expressions - Bugabee Flowers.  The sentiment is from Paper Smooches.

Here's my Sweet Sassy Sally card...

Wedding Wishes!!

Today I created a Wedding Card using the sketch at Sketch Saturday.  I am also entering this card in the Challenge over at Word Art Wednesday.  The Sketch was perfect for the sentiment I wanted to use.  1 Corinthians 13:4-8.  I used papers from the 6x6 Designer Pad from My Mind's Eye Lost & Found - Blush.  The sentiment is computer generated.  I also used Opaques from Close to My Heart on both the card and the envelope and flowers from Recollections on the envelope.  The sentiment inside the card is from Verve.  Bob and Patty's Wedding was today and the weather was perfect!

Thanks for stopping by!!

Deuteronomy 6:5

Tonight I made a card for my son.  He is the Pastor of LifeSong New England.  I am so proud of him.  LifeSong is in it's third year.  It's beginnings were a dream of the Senior Pastor of Rockland Baptist and 6 of the Young Adults who had been in Youth Group together and had been singing Worship Music as "Steadfast"...  My son is 24, and I am seeing how God is blessing LifeSong through his willingness to serve.  We have been doing a sermon series based on the movie Courageous.  Last Sunday's sermon's key verse was Deuteronomy 6:5.  Well, I love how God has a sense of humor...  I was looking at some of the Challenges for this week and Word Art Wednesday had that very same verse for this week.  God is such a personal God!!

The DP is from My Mind's Eye Stella Rose - Mabel Papers.  The ribbon is from my stash.  The buttons are CtMH tied with embroidery floss.  I'm entering this card in the following Challenges:

Unscripted Sketches - Sketch
Word Art Wednesday - Sentiment
City Crafters - Hello Doily!!
