Wedding Congratulations...

I handmade this card for a friend who ordered it last week for a newly wed couple. I used baby blue metallic card, a paper doily, lace, embossed daisy flowers made by Carla craft cp2 daisy punch, leaves by EK success punch and embossed sticker to create the entire lay out.
The paper lace was created with a border punch.

I believe a handmade card adds a personal touch and brings much joy to the one who receives it.

I just can't resist punches when I see them and no matter how heavy they are, they will follow me home...
Jumbo EK Success Punch...my personal new collections purchased from Singapore in June

I bought these lovely paper shapers jumbo punches from EK Success and I love them....look at my first few cards I made and all were sold out at the Good Tidings carnival which was held in July recently....

These are really great for scrapbooking...If you use such huge designs for cards keep the punch shapes minimal. It will not crowd the eyes...
