View Full Version : Wedding card commission...

...just made this this week, a commission from my mum's friend. She didn't really know what sort of card she wanted, or indeed what colour! Mum eventually pinned her down to liking the idea of a 'bride & groom', but mum wasn't sure if it was a church wedding or civil ceremony. I'd seen this stamp loads of times & thought it was nice & generic ie, they don't look like anyone, so they can represent anyone & can be played about with to include colour when wanted. But then I couldn't find it except on Ebay...

So with many huge thanks to Looby for helping me get my hands on the stamp I managed to finally get the card made:

Beautiful card Welly. It is a lovely stamp and I really like the hearts on the ribbon. I am sure the bride and groom will be thrilled with it.

Mum cast her eyes over it this weekend - & has requested something on the lost leaf! The card is lined a la Nancy/Michele with mats of silver & white...I shall have a fiddle.

For some reason this is one of those cards I'm really proud of :cheeky: It's very simple, nothing techical but looks just how I wanted it. It was orginally planned as A4 in my head, but mum said no...

Gorgeous card Welly, definately a case of "less is more" for a very classy looking card. I can see why you wanted that stamp - it's a lovely image which also has, as you say, the benefit of being very generic, so suitable for all kinds of weddings - religious or non-religious.
