Mocha Morning Wedding Card

I need a card for a special friend who is getting married soon and this is what I came up with...
Mocha Morning Specialty DSP came together with Very Vanilla & Crumb Cake Cardstock in this elegant card. I love the detail of this flower from the Mixed Bunch Stamp Set, the Adorning Accents Edgelits Die & coordinating Embossing Folders. I added an Antique Brad, Crumb Cake Seam Binding Ribbon and a sentiment from the Petite Pairs Stamp Set to complete the card.

Twitterpated

It is so nice to open a package of Stampin' Up! Designer Series Paper and instantly have 12 coordinating papers to create with. I have used the Twitterpated designs for a number of projects in the last month and here are a few more...
The combination of Pear Pizzazz, Basic Gray and Riding Hood Red make these papers stunning! I stamped the flower using one of the three flower stamps in the Mixed Bunch set and used the coordinating Blossom Punch to easily punch it out. Both are featured in the Occasions Mini Catalog. The "It's Your Day" sentiment is part of the Outlined Occasions Stamp Set which you can receive as your FREE Sale-A-Bration choice with a $50 order.

"Love" & "Be Mine" are two more stamps in the Outlined Occasions Sale-A-Bration set. The Fashionable Hearts Embosslits Die effortlessly cuts and embosses 5 hearts of various sizes with 1 quick pass through the Big Shot!

Cover a composition notebooks, stamp & punch a flower, add some pretty pleated satin ribbon, roll a piece of DSP and insert into a clear pen and you have a beautiful new journal to give as a gift or keep for yourself.

It's not too late to join us over at Inking Everything with Becky for 50+ ideas and tutorials. I am the featured designer this Saturday!!!
