Wedding card

by

Some of my favourite types of crafts are paper crafts and I will be tuning in regularly to All Paper Arts to see what is cooking on that front, and I will also showcase on this site paper crafts that catch my eye, and hope you will share any neat crafts you come across too!

I will be a bridesmaid in a wedding soon and I have started working on the card that will accompany the happy couple’s gift. There is something very formal about black, grey and white for a wedding and although some balk at the idea of using black on a wedding card, it makes me think of tuxedos and surely that can’t be a bad thing?

Here is what I have so far for the card. Lavendar is a key colour in this wedding and the bit of lavendar ribbon is a tribute to that:

I used some square brads as the centres of the daisies and I will be covering up the backside of the brads with a piece of cardstock or perhaps more of the grey paper that’s on the front of the card.

    Hi Jummy. Love your card and thanks for the nod. Here is a suggestion. Could you make your grey paper just a little higher and then put your brads through your flowers through the grey paper and then adhere that to the card? That way you don’t have to worry about the brads going through the card itself? That’s what most of the ladies in my card party do (including me).
    Loving your site! Kari
