Making these couple of cards took up almost all of my Sunday afternoon. Admittedly there wasn't much planning involved, just alot of experimenting with ideas that have been simmering for a while now.
Somehow the second card (with flowers and butterfly) almost always turns out better than the first ... The first design was an experimentation of circles made out of cricut circle cutter. Its sa little bare at the bottom but that can always be remedied in the event the names of bride and groom are to be printed below (?)
What i liked most out of these cards, is the colour combination. Always liked the combination of lavender and ivory. The pattern papers are actually wedding present papers i spotted at one of the gift shops in town. Whilst, cardstock is of the A4 pastel lumiscent of the garden variety sort that can be found in most stationary stores - which i thought beautifully complemented the hues of present paper.
And that pretty purple sparkly butterfly, was one of the gems discovered in one of the sewing/florist shops we have in Kuching. Should check those shops out. They do carry quite a fair bit of relatively inexpensive 'embellishments' that one could use in scrapbooking!
Oh, and the flower and tag, I made myself from all those scraps laying about. Quite pleased with how those turned out too ...! :)
