Hello, today I'm going to share a recent Wedding card design idea with
you. I love to use Papermilldirect White Linen card not only for it’s
lovely texture and the luxury look it gives, but also because it cuts
beautifully on my Cricut Explore. I needed to make a Wedding card with a lemon
and white combo so I choose the PMD Pastel Canary card to partner the
linen card centrepiece.
Step By Step.
The design of the card
is based around a papercut style heart, I used a heart shape from Design
Space and adapted it by welding in some shapes to close some of the
open spaces and make it easier to mount onto it’s backing. (The Design
Space images I've used are shown at the end of this post)
Mount the White Linen papercut heart onto it’s Pastel Canary backing
shape using 3D foam pads and decorate with adhesive pearls and clear
gems. Prepare an 8x8 white card base by adding a mat and layer of
embossed white card onto Pastel Canary using d/s tape. Affix decorative
heart to card front using d/s tape and clear drying glue.
Attach a panel of Pastel Canary card inside the card and add a panel for
the greeting. I have cut another heart from smooth white card and used
my Cricut to write ‘On Your Wedding Day’ upon it. I have also added a
die cut Wedding Cake and 2 Champagne Flutes using die sets.
Cut the centrepiece heart panel from White Linen card and add to it’s
Pastel Canary backing shape using 3D foam pads. (I have personalised
the centre heart by slicing the words into the shape using a Cricut
Font, you could use the write function if you prefer?) Decorate heart
with small adhesive gems and then add to card front.
Add other decoration to card front if desired, I have added a bride and
groom die cut from White Linen card using a FE Wedding Die set and
mounted using 3D foam pads.
Add personalised layered hearts to bottom left and bottom right. I
have used my Cricut to write ‘Mr&Mrs’ on one and the Wedding date on
the other. To finish, add a trio of paper flowers using sticky dots,
twirl the wire stems if they have and arrange as desired. I used a
ready-made white box to hold the card and decorated it with a
personalised layered heart and a paper flower to match,
