Wedding Bells for Unscripted Sketches

Saturday, November 7, 2009

Well, another Saturday is upon us, which means Unscripted Sketches time. Yahoo!

I was working on some wedding invitations awhile back for my friend and while I had the supplies out, I thought I'd make her wedding card with the same materials that her invitations will be made of. Her colors are silver and hunter green. I'll have more on the invitations to come but I will tell you that she'd like 150 of them. YIKES. I better get my exam passed because I am going to need all the free time I can get to make these invitations. LOL.

Anyway, I got out some of my foil paper from CTMH and embossed it with a small cuttlebug embossing folder. Some ribbon underneath the focal point was added with a couple of matching brads in the corner. I wish you could see the texture of the silver swirly paper. It's embossed foil and it looks so pretty IRL.


***Supplies***
Patterned Paper: ??? from Hobby Lobby
Other: Cuttlebug, silver ribbon, CTMH foil sheets and brads

Why don't you head on over to Unscripted Sketches now and give this week's sketch a whirl? Thanks for the visit and know that I miss visiting everyone. 2 1/2 more weeks of torture. LOL. Have a blessed Saturday.
