Quick Wedding Card
This is a card I just did to use as a Make-N-Take at the show I’ll be working for Flourishes in Sayner, WI — the Sayner Spring Stampede — gee, it’s next weekend already — how time flies!!! So much for my idea of being prepared well in advance!!!
First off, all the paper and ink is Pretty in Pink — another night of not getting along with my photo editing program — sorry. Oh, but I love this simple little card, and I hope the women at the Make-N-Take do as well. Everything will be pre-cut for them, so it should go together fairly quickly.
All images on this card are from one small set by Flourishescalled Wedding Essentials. Love that set! It is mostly sentiments that take you through all aspects of wedding planning, but it makes up into some really great wedding cards, too!!! For this card the flourish in the set is stamped in pink onto the white base layer. The *and* sign is stamped in pink as well, and then the Mr. and Mrs. is stamped right over it in Going Grey. It was cut and double matted with the Petite Oval Nestabilities by Spellbinders . I was slow getting onto the Spellbinder band-wagon, but WOW, once using these type of dies that all nest together, nothing could be better!!! You have so many options, and that’s what I love!!! I am slowly building my collection!!!
The Wedding Essentials set, the pink satin ribbon and the Petite Oval Nestabilites all came from Flourishes. The paper, ink and brad are by SU.
- Stamps: Wedding Essentials by Flourishes

What a great wedding card! Beautiful colors.
Your wedding card is fabulous. However, I am actually responding you your comment about the Nestibilities. As you know I also hesitated buying these new tools. I sought advice from fellow stampers, including you. But…..must say I totally agree with you….they are really fabulous….and take so much less space than my punches…….of course I have all the punches and I still use them occasionally, but the Nesties are the best………..
Thanks for all the inspiration and support you give to your fellow stampers.
Hugs,
Sharon this is just beautiful… Simplicity at it’s best!!
Absolutely beautiful Sharon! I received my Nesties from Flourishes this week too and I can’t get enough of them! Good luck next weekend!
Sharon, this is simply beautiful! You and Flourishes together has to be one of the best company/designer relationships out there. You were made for each other!
Sharon, this is another beautiful card. I love the simplicity and the colors.
I love that Flourish stamp and I think it is one I am going to have to have.
Great job as usual! Sure wish I lived near the meeting in Wisconsin. Oh how fun that would be!

This wedding card is beautiful. Simple, yet very elegant. The satin ribbon is a wonderful finishing touch.
This is so very gorgeous, Sharon! I love the pink, white and gray. I absolutely love the way you arranged the lettering–really softened it. Just wonderful!
I’m behind on my blog hopping, but I had to say–this is so classy—I love the layout & colors—simple and elegant!
