I chose some not-so-popular wedding colors for today's card.

• Card base is in Certainly Celery, matted with Soft Suede and a piece of Greenhouse Gala designer series paper.
  
• A Whisper White sentiment stamped in Wild Wasabi (Certainly Celery looked too light) was dolled up using my Smooch Spritz in Vanilla Shimmer. It looks like I used Shimmery White paper, but I didn't!
  
• I cut the sentiment out by using my Clearlits Scallop Rectangle Die. It's clear, so you can line it up perfectly around your stamped image.
• A rectangle piece of Soft Suede was used to matte the sentiment and I stamped the cake image in Whisper White Craft Ink onto the Soft Suede.
  
• A bow of Old Olive taffeta creates a border between the sentiment and the cake.

Simple, but elegant and very festive for good wishes to the bride and groom.

Thank you for visiting my blog and I look forward to your comments!

PPA48-Sketch Challenge

Today's Pals Paper Arts Challenge is the above sketch provided by our Design Team member Margaret Moody. Why don't you play along?

I chose to make a large card this time, cutting my paper 10" x 7", so when folded it measures 5" x 7". It is going to be signed by multiple people, so I needed more space inside.

I used the *NEW* Greenhouse Gala designer series paper, *NEW* card stock in Early Espresso, Cherry Cobbler and Daffodil Delight and the *NEW* stamp set, Perfect Punches for the sentiment. One more *NEW* element is the Clearlits Scallop Rectangle Die. It's clear so you can place it perfectly where you want to cut out your scallop rectangle. (the sentiment could be punched out "perfectly" with our Wide Oval Punch). All of these *NEW* products are available on July 1st.
