Hi Everyone. Happy Saturday night.
I got to spend some time outside in the garden soaking up the sun… yes SUN! and I spent some time in my stamping space. It has to be a great day 🙂
Tonight's card uses a stamp set from the new Summer Mini – Blissful Bride. It's that time of the year when weddings seem to be a regular occurrence. Consequently, I made two different cards – one very traditional – all in white and one much less traditional. Tonight I'm showing you the traditional one.
I used the Vellum and embossing stylus technique. I stamped the dress and then using my stylus I embossed the train of the dress to make it pop from the paper and also to give it a white organza feel. I added just a touch of pink on the flowers and the ribbon.
I used the Bride Specialty Paper (115669). In fact this is the first time I have actually used it for its intended purpose!
Unfortunately, I couldn't get a good closeup of the vellum to show you – but let me try
I'm not sure you can see the "puffy" look to the train… I think you have to see it in person.
I hope you all have a fabulous Sunday and that you get to spend time doing the things you love, with those you love the most. Enjoy this wonderful spring weather.
Hugs
Jaydee

Very beautiful and proper. I like the pink flower and ribbon. Unfortunately, I could not see the embossing, although i did try, really. I squinted my eyes and looked really, really hard, but to no avail. I bet it looks really pretty in person. Do you have some Special Couple in mind or did you make in Just in Case? Good to have on hand either way. Glad you were able to spend time outside today, it was nice here too, but I was in a lot of pain, and when I take pain meds I fall right asleep. In order to stay awake and get anything done I must endure the pain for awhile. Perhaps tomorrow I shall try to get out for a bit. Sounds like you had a glorious day. I am glad after all of those nasty hours that you have been working.

Another beautiful card (and bow!). I like the 2 papers here, it all makes for an elegant card. Glad you were able to get some fun stuff in over the weekend. Thanks for sharing your ideas with us.
Beautiful card! I can’t wait to see the other one you made! Thanks for sharing your awesome creation Jaydee! Hope you have a wonderful weekend!
Beautiful card-so elegant. I really am wanting to try your vellum technique. Again I love you little beads!
Hey Jaydee, how did you do the embossing?
