Everyone in my house is so looking forward to this weekend as we are all going to a wedding………… yay…….love a wedding and this one is extra special as we have all known the bride since she was a toddler, she and her brother and sister grew up with my 2 children and her parents are really great friends of ours and ……….the wedding is in the village so we can walk……..how much better can it get!
The bride loves bright colours so I decided to take advantage of that for her and her fiancé’s wedding card.

I knew I wanted to use Whisper White cardstock (5⅜” by 3⅝”) and the new Ruffled Dynamic Textured Impressions folder as a background. I die cut the detailed dragonfly from the Detailed Dragonfly Thinlits from the centre of a panel of Lemon Lime Twist cardstock 5 ½” by 3 ¾” before using the panel to back the embossed Whisper White piece. I wrapped a piece of ½” Berry Burst Finely Woven Ribbon around the lower end of the panel and tied it in a bow.

I covered the Lemon Lime Twist dragonfly with a coating of Clear Wink of Stella, love a bit of shimmer, before adding the dragonfly to the embossed piece using Tombow Liquid Adhesive. The sentiment from the Rose Wonder stamp set was stamped in Berry Burst ink onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock and punched out using the 1½” Circle Punch. I used the 1¾” inch Circle Punch to cut a Berry Burst circle to layer on the back. I added it over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals. The whole panel was added to a Berry Burst card base.
