Cards for the Bride and Groom

I very excited to share that I’m teaming up with Debbie from Ephemera Vintage Garden to share my projects created in my usual shabby chic style with lot’s of vintage goodies and trims and featuring her absolutely beautiful vintage printables.

I created these cards for a bride and groom with these fabulous His and Her Hot Air Balloon images. Click the link to hop over to the post to find this beautiful freebie vintage image set.

I choose lot’s of pretty patterned papers and bordered them in office blue to match the stripe in the balloons. One for the bride and one for the groom : )

I trimmed the image down a bit to create a tag shape…inked it and gave it a reinforcing dot in chocolate brown. The black in the little top hat inspired me to add that block of black with white dots in the background. I also added generous strips of Shimmer Satin in Aqua from Really Reasonable Ribbon.

Can’t go wrong with vintage buttons right????

Well inked and layered flowers were Stickled and glittered….then finished of with bits of ribbon.

Here’s one for the bride.

Okay…so that’s my first set of cards made with 2 of her weekly freebie images from Ephemera’s Vintage Garden…you can also check out her fabulous website here. I’ll be posting another card tomorrow. I’ll give ya a little hint…it’s pink lol.

Well here in mid Michigan were in the middle of a big snow storm….so hoping for a snow day tomorrow….wish us luck : )

I hope you all enjoy a happy and productive day and find some time to be creative : ) G
