The sentiment was inked up with Versamark then straight into the Memento Tuxedo Black ink and immediately stamped onto the strip of Soft Sea Foam cardstock – I used the Embossing Buddy on the layer beforehand. The stamped sentiment was then covered with Clear Embossing Powder and heat set with my Heat Tool. I used the Banner triple Punch to flag both ends and glued the strip to the card front.

I love the soft colour palette of this card, hope you like it.

Wonderful Moments Bride

Posted on August 19, 2018January 10, 2019 by Mo Rootes

Today I am sharing a sweet card I made using the Wonderful Moments stamp set for the upcoming wedding of friends.

Making the Wonderful Moments card

I began with a panel of Whisper White cardstock 5¼” by 3½”. I inked up the gorgeous image of the bride using Momento Tuxedo Black ink and stamped it on the Whisper White pane. Taking the light and dark Calypso Coral, the light and dark Daffodil Delight & the light and dark Granny Apple Green Blends pens I coloured in the buttons, sash and bouquet of the bride. I used the Ivory Blend for her skin and the light and dark Crumb Cake for her hair.

I added two Artisan Pearls to her hair as decoration and a couple more scattered around. Using the Detailed Trio Punch I rounded the upper left hand corner of the stamped panel. I also rounded the upper left corner of a panel of Basic Black 5⅜” by 3⅝” and adhered it to the stamped panel with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

I cut a piece of the lovely Garden Impressions DSP measuring 5⅝” by 3⅞” and glued it to a Thick Whisper White card base. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the Basic Black panel and added it to the card front. The sentiment from the Hand Delivered stamp set was stamped in Calypso Coral ink onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock and trimmed out using the Paper Trimmer. It was added to the card front with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.
