Silver Wedding

This card was made for two challenges.  Create with Connie and Mary 181 which challenges us to use only white and silver glimmer.  Also, I used sketch challenge 235 over at Staming 411.

I thought this card could double as a wedding card or a silver anniversary card.....I'll just have to see what ocasion pops up first, I guess!  The little wedding cake was a snap to make with only two punched squares run through the Big Shot with the Finial Press EF.  It's sitting on a Scallop Oval cake plate.  I used the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack for the accessory flowers and gave them some dimention by laying them on the soft pad from the mat pack and running my stylus over them.  This technique sure does make the little flowers stand out, plus the small rhinestone in the center of each one.  To give the base card some interest, I ran that thru the Big Shot with my Elegant Bouquet EF.  I inked up the Mr. & Mrs. stamp from Tiny Tags with Basic Gray ink, then stamped it off once to get the softer color.
Here is the list of all the supplies I used on this card......
Stamp: Tiny Tags
Paper: White, Silver Glimmer
Ink: Basic Gray
Accessories: Finial Press and Elegant Bouquet EF, Oval punches, Scallop Oval punch, Square punch, Itty Bitty Punch Pack, Rhinestone basics, Organza ribbon.
