Special Day Card with Tina

Hello crafty friends, Tina here with a festive wedding card featuring the versatile Special Day stamp and die set. As you may know I love to mix and match and the cute couple from Wedded Bliss works great with this big love themed cake!

Over the years I noticed that my style of cards got more diverse. When I started in 2015, I mostly created very colorful scene cards. Now I have learned to embrace the power of ‘white space’! Making a true CAS (clean and simple) card is still hard, but I do love an elegant white background with a bit of structure.

That is why I chose the beautiful Frilly Frames Eyelet Lace dies for this festive card. You immediately get a gorgeous intricate background with just one pass through the die cut machine! Love that!

I stamped and die cut the big ‘love themed’ cake and two extra flowers from Special Day and the cuties from Wedded Bliss. Having that white background, I really needed my images to stand out and pop. That is why I selected bright and happy Copic marker colors. I also tried to create depth by using complementary colors. I added a bit of dark green in the corners of the pink ribbons and hearts. That immediately darkens these areas. The cake got a realistic feel to it by adding dots with brown Copics and a white gel pen.

The beautiful sentiment from Special Day was stamped with Versafine Onyx Black ink onto a white strip and I fussy cut it for a different look. To assemble the card, I first glued the lace background to a white card base and added the images and sentiment with foam tape. Adhering a few pink Pastel Jewels was all the embellishment this card needed.

I hope you will enjoy creating cards with this festive Special Day set too! Thank you for visiting the blog and happy crafting!
