Personalised Wedding Card




I was contracted to make this card for some friends of my DH. It is the third wedding card I have made for them and they always ask for a personal, special creation that includes interests and likes of the couple getting married.
This cards requirements was something to do with grapevines and solar cars. I had lots of problems trying to find papers with grapevines on them but found this awesome piece of chipboard by Dusty Attic. I added rhinestones to make some of the grape bunches and add some dimension to the card. I originally wanted to use pearls but could not get the colours I wanted, but I think the rhinestones work nicely and add some bling.
I made the card into an easel so that they can stand it up. Underneath the silver heart is a piece of solar panel that my DH cut out of a solar garden light for me. This is the little piece for the groom's interests. I added the couples names at the bottom using AC puffy thickers.

Thanks for looking and have a lovely day.
