Inspiring Words




Hello everyone! It's time for a new challenge at Whimsical Wednesdays! This week the challenge is "Inspiring Words". Make a card/project using one of the words from the picture as your inspiration and you must use that word in your project.
For my card I chose to do a wedding card. To me, all of the words in the photo represent a marriage.
I used my Gypsy to weld together 2 hearts from Sweethearts and their shadows. The "Love" was also cut from Sweethearts twice. I layered all the images with pop dots to give it some dimension because this is an all white card and I wanted them to stand out. I embossed the background of the card with the Cuttelbug Textile folder and added a ribbon to the bottom. It was a very simple card to make, but I think that it is very elegant looking. This is actually going to my sister for her wedding card in a couple of weeks.
I hope you liked my card and will play along this week! Barb from BugBites is the sponsor for this challenge and you will be playing for her NEW All Year Round Stamp Set! This is such a cute set! If you haven't seen it yet, just click on the link and check it out!
Also if you didn't notice that cute badge on my sidebar, Whimsical Wednesdays is having a Halloween Blog Hop on Oct.7th, SO MARK YOUR CALENDERS! Your not going to want to miss this!
Have a great day and I can't wait to see what you will create!
