Elegant Wedding or Anniversary Card

Togetherforever 


I think this is one of my favorite cards that we'll be making at the Fancy Folds class next week.  It is so simple and elegant, perfect for those Fall weddings!


I fell in love with this Christmas card made by Kimberly Van Diepen.  So when I saw her at convention swapping, I just about fell over myself to get one of her cards!!!


I copied Kimberly's basic layout, but changed it to a gatefold card.  My background also has a lot of texture.  I used the Stampin' UP! Backgrounds I Texturz Plates.  Here's a tip---lightly spritz your cardstock with water or alcohol, then place the card stock on the Texturz Plate and run it through the Big Shot.  You'll get a much deeper dry embossed impression.


And remember, if you can't attend the class, you still have an opportunity to purchase the cards, electronic instructions, or both.  Click here for details.

  1. That's a very pretty card. Thanks for the tip about the texture plates. I was just about to give mine away, because I wanted a better impression with them...michelle
