The Wedding Card

Thanks for all the birthday wishes! I had a lovely weekend :o)
I thought you might like to see the card I made for the wedding. I kept it simple and elegant. I pulled out the Bliss Sale-a-Bration set and inked it up in Sahara Sand. I then stamped it off because I wanted the middle to be very pale. I then sponged Sahara Sand and then Rich Razzleberry ink around the outer part of the stamp and stamped it onto Very Vanilla cardstock. I stamped the sentiment inside in Rich Razzleberry ink (the sentiment is from a Level 3 Hostess set). I then sponged the edges of the cardstock in Sahara Sand, and layered it onto another piece of Very Vanilla. I made some embossed stripes on the Rich Razzleberry piece of cardstock using a Scoring Blade in my paper trimmer. Some ribbon and an antique brad just finishes it off.

By the way, I've had a few people asking how I was going towards earning the Fiji Incentive Trip, and I'm very happy to say that Dave and I will be enjoying an all-expenses paid holiday to Fiji in October :o) Thanks to my wonderful team, I earned the trip nice and early this year, so the pressure was off!
