How exciting that the Royal Wedding is this week! I remember watching in wonderment when Charles and Diane were wed and will be equally excited to see this blessed event! Dh and I toured Europe last summer and one of the places we visited was London - the girls talk excitedly of being at Westminister Abbey, the wedding site! {see below for a bunch of W.A. Pictures!}
Along the lines of wedded bliss, dh and I celebrated our 18th Wedding Anniversary on Easter Sunday :) I'm truly blessed and know that I am so lucky to have such an amazing husband :)
My card for you today is a fun fold just with a creative twist ~ it semi-joy fold ;) The image is a new FBD release called "Beautiful Bride" and just in time for the June weddings! I added the bride to the inside of the card and matched the flowers to the ones in her veil and bouquet. I chose the soft blue as a backdrop color for the "something borrowed, something blue" but gave it a little pop of pink floral in the front. Finishing touch with some pearls and a computer generated sentiment and voila!

Kelly, Fantastic card! Love the folds you did. Wonderful color choices. Your photos remind me of my own trip to England several years ago and touring Westminster Abbey. What delightful memories I have of that trip. Thanks for refreshing them! Also, thanks for all your wonderful comments and support while I was a guest designer this month. I've enjoyed every minute of it and I'll be following your blog. See you for the challenges each Wednesday. Hugz
ReplyDeleteA beautiful wedding card, Kel! The folds are so very fun, and I really like how the image is on the inside -- great look! Thanks for sharing your wonderful memories of your trip and those great pics, too!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful card and awesome pictures on London.
ReplyDeleteSuch beautifully detailed card, Kelly! Your front is non-traditional wedding, but classic and lovely. The inside flowers compliment everything so nicely.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your pics of the Abbey, truly inspiring location.
What a wonderful card with such lovely papers! Happy anniversary to you and your husband!!
ReplyDeleteWhat great photos, too! I laughed at the Yorkie. Everybody here knows they are my favourite bars (especially the raisin and biscuit ones). Whenever I go to England, I stock up!
Really stunning card! The folds and beautiful papers and flowers! Very elegant! And I love your pics! Looks fantastic!
ReplyDeleteStunning card!
