The Journey Begins

Evening everyone, 

I'm working on a swap tonight, so I thought I would share the card I am making for the swap, It's for Barb's Year of Cards swap, and I'm making 13 wedding cards. The set is Hand in Hand from Gina K Designs (designed by Melanie Muenchinger). When I do wedding cards, I usually like to keep the colors and design very simple, which I think I did here. 

The only thing I need to add (which I forgot until I started typing this!) is a little silver bling to her ring hand! 

Stamps: Hand in Hand (Gina K Designs)

Paper: Basic Black, 120lb Gina K Luxury White, Pink Pirouette

Ink: Basic Black

Access: cuttlebug, nestabilities, Ivory Wide Organdy Ribbon, Silver Cord, Eyelet Border Punch, Koh-i-noor pencils, Gina K Odorless Mineral Spirits, blending stump, Blush Blossom SU Marker

Hugs ~~ LJ

Here is my entry for this weekend's Hanna Stamps Challenge, which was to make a Valentine's Card that does not include pink or red....

My Bowling Hanna Set arrived in the mail today, so I had to ink her up right away and make a valentine. The sentiment I did on my computer and printed it out. 

Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Friday!

Hope you are all having a fantastic start to your weekend. Here is my card for this weekend's sketch challenge on Taylored Expressions. The card size is 5X7. I have a stack of 5X7 envelopes, so I'm playing with a larger card base for awhile. This is the perfect sketch for a larger card because of all the multiple pattern pieces. I hope you enjoy my card tonight!

Paper: Close to Cocoa, Rose Red, Pink Pirouette, White, Sweet Glitter Matstack (DCWV)

Access: Circle Nestabilities, Cuttlebug, Pink Pirouette Ribbon, Rose Grossgrain Ribbon, Valet Ribbon Originals. Brads (SEI and Basic Grey), SU Markers.
