Paper Hugs

Welcome once again to  Scrapbook Boutique's  monthly challenge and blog hop.  You should have arrived here from  Angela's  amazing blog but if you didn't and want to start at the beginning, just click on the SBB blog link above and start again!   Here is the mood board for this month - isn't it RICH? Now to the housekeeping part - if you want to create something or just join in to win, there are two ways you can participate in this challenge and have a chance to win a prize.  You can comment on each blog, ending with the SBB blog, or you can create a project (either a card, scrapbook layout or off the page project) inspired by this photo.  Of course you can do both for a chance to win both prizes!  Please check out the rules of entry, and the prizes at the  Scrapbook Boutique Blog  and note that this challenge is open to Australian  and New Zealand residents. So here is my card - I was thoroughly tak...

Quick post to show this wedding card I've made for a friend who is the mother of the groom.  She has been asked to 'do' the flowers - 3 bridesmaids, one bride and the table settings - and she has to travel to Canberra (from Melbourne).  Naturally, she is delighted the bride has asked her to participate so fully - what a great start! The stamp here is by Penny Black, but I don't know the name, as it belongs to a friend, but I love the elegant simplicity of its lines.  I immediately thought of my friend (mother of groom) and so have made it the wedding card.  The lovely sentiment is by Clearly Besotted. It is a long card, so I needed to make a custom envelope, which I coordinated to the card.  The initials of the couple have been gold embossed, and the contrast panel is by Memory Box - Flicker Hearts. I hope it is acceptable!
