Wedding Card/Stamp with Us challenge

This card is for the 'stamp with us' sketch challenge. I had to make a card for a wedding eve reception I'm going to tomorrow. I've known the bride for almost 5yrs now, but won't know anyone else there - eeek apart from hubby that is. We do a jewellery class together, and for the last few months I've been hearing all about her preperations, and the invite to the eve reception really was out of the blue, and most unexpected. I also know that she has handmade alot of the 'things' for her wedding, so know a handmade card will be appreciated. Her invite has sunflowers on, and she has told me she will have sunflowers in her bouqet, hence my choice of colours for the card, and the inclusion of the sunflower.


Card is 6x6inches, bazzil, not sure what colour, just seemed appropriate.
SU very vanilla, and yellow card that matched the sunflower.
Lettering cut on cricut in SU close to cocoa, SU 'love' stamp. Ribbon AC, sunflower bought from local craft shop. Oval punches SU.

Stamp with us Launch Challenge

Just done the first launch challenge on Stamp with Us - it was such fun, only 45mins to come up with a design using the image and card and ribbon provided. I missed off the ribbon, and if I'd had a bit more time would have done a bit more with the sentiment, but hey ho I was rushing. And I just couldn't think what to do with the ribbon either.



Used some watercolour crayons for the first time too - kind of wished I'd experimented with them first, but just had to get on with it and they were great to use too. I'd be tempted to get more with a bigger colour range.

I've a few things to photo, then I can upload pics onto my blog - not least the little pendant i've finished this eve at my class.
Anyway, need to link in the new Stamp with Us blog that the fabulous Monica and friends have started up - looking forward to following this one.
