To have and to hold...





Hi everyone. Well, here we are at the end of another perfectly wonderful - but far too short - weekend!! I spent a good portion of the weekend in my craftroom...between hanging with my handsome hubby and chatting with my sister in MN where they had really, really bad storms! Thankfully, my MN family members are fine.

So here's a little wedding card I made...I used Lady Tilda from the Fairytale collection...and masked her...and stamped little groom Edwin so he's standing slightly behind Tilda. I'm pretty pleased with how the card turned out. I want to thank my sweet friend, Sandy (in NC), who surprised me with this paper a while back. Thanks Sandy!! So...here's the "recipe"...

Cardstock: SU Pretty in Pink and Close to Cocoa
DPs: Confetti collection from Papermania
Ribbon, lace, & charm: stash
FlowersL Wild Orchid Crafts
Baubles: from Stamping Bella
Nestabilities: Peony
Copics: E11, 00, 000, R20 (skin), E35, YR21 & 20 (Tilda's hair...and I added E99 to Edwin's hair),R20, 21, 00, & 0000 (Tilda's dress), R29, 24, 22, & 20 (Tilda's headband & flower, and Edwin's tie & corsage), C5, 3,2, 0 (Edwin's tux...I added C7 for his shoes), G28, 24, & 00 (leaves).

I also roughed up some of the edges with my Tim Holtz distress tool, and darkened some of the edges with Creamy Caramel ink from SU. So, that's what I've been up to this weekend. I hope yours was wonderful too! Thanks so much for stopping by for a visit. Have a beautiful week. See you soon. Pat
