FTTC217 - Wedding Wishes

Hi, all!  Are you ready for the latest edition of the Flourishes Timeless Tuesday challenge?  Today, Deborah is our super-talented hostess and she's asking us to make a Wedding card or project.  It's definitely a great time of the year for that!

I decided to go with a classic wedding bouquet type of image from the Roses Are Red stamp set.  What a gorgeous image it is!  I stamped it on a thin journal page in Versafine Onyx black ink and colored it with Copic markers.  Then I cut it out with my Floral Oval die set.

My background layer, as well as my card base, is made from Flourishes Classic Ivory cardstock.  I stamped the background layer with the love sentiment block from the Just My Type stamp set, using Versamark ink.  Then I clear embossed it.  You can just catch glimpses of all the special little love phrases around the edges of the oval.

I added an eggshell seam binding bow and tied my sentiment from the Orchids stamp set to the bow with a piece of ivory jute.  The sentiment was cut out using a leaf from the Foliage Spellbinders die set.

I wanted just a touch of shimmer so I added a very thin line of glitter glue around the edge of the oval.

Here are the Copic collections that I used:

My layout today came from this week's Pals Paper Arts sketch PPA157:
