Tour-de-Freaks - Weddings!

Welcome to the March 2011 Blog Tour. If you've just arrived from Wendy's blog. you've come to the right place! Didn't you just love all her projects! But don't worry, if you have started here, it will be possible to go completely to the end and arrive back here after going to the beginning of the tour!

This month's theme is Wedding Projects! Oh how I love doing wedding projects. So of course I had to participate in this month's tour. My first project is a super cute wedding card. This card would be for a fun loving couple. It's definitely a cutesy card and not your typical fancy card. But I still love it. I used a layout that I've done before with the owls for an engagement card. This time, I used penquins. Because they are already dressed up :) For the boy penquin, I just gave him some buttons using the smallest circles from the owl punch. For the bride, I gave her a nice pearl necklace and a little flower on her head. The flower (from Silouette Sentiments) is stamped in Pink Pirouette, cut out and a pearl was added to the center. I added some white tafetta ribbon, a pink button and the sentiment is from A Word For You. I'm not sure if you can see in the photo but the Baja Breeze paper is textured. It gives it a little something extra.



For my next project, I did a wedding invite sample. My brother is getting married next year on the beach so he wants something a little tropical. I did this invite in MDS. I added 2 palm trees from the Tropical Party set. I added the text and printed. Then I ran the belly band through the Big Shot with the lattice die texture plate. The belly band is used to hold all the extra pieces (rsvp, envelope, etc) behind the actual invite.





Thanks for checking out my projects. I hope you are enjoying the tour. Next up is Renee Van Stralen, with some fantastic projects!
