Anything but a Birthday

Good morning! Here I am again with my DT card for Sweet Stampin'.  Our challenge this week is "Anything but a Birthday" so I decided to make a wedding card as I don't have any in my supplies box.


I used papers from my absolute favourite Maja design collection, which I think translates as "Shall we have coffee?".  Some of the purples in this range are very dark and rich, so perhaps better suited to autumn, but I thought the soft lilacs in this paper would make a nice alternative to the usual ivory or white of a wedding card.

I only have 2 wedding stamps, both Lili of the Valley. I'd like to say that I never tire of colouring this one, but let's be honest, there isn't actually that much to colour!  I kept the embellies fairly simple, just adding some WOC flowers, chipboard corners and wooden buttons, which I painted with distress paint.  The sentiment is a Pink Petticoat digi which has loads of different phrases on it.  I just cut a strip and inked the edges with walnut distress ink.

I really hope you can join in our challenge this week. We're being sponsored by our very own Natali, who always gives away the most fantastic prizes from her store, Iva Nova Chest!  Don't forgot to hop over to Sweet Stampin' to check out the lovely inspiration projects the Sweeties have made!

I'll be back tomorrow with my Lovely hAnglar card but in the meantime, enjoy your weekend.

Hugs,

Tracey xx
