wedding shower card

I need to have several wedding cards for this year, both for our daughters.  Here is my first card.  Hope you enjoy it.
 The paper is CTMH from looooong ago.  There is a silver shimmer under the red and for the tux and brides dress.  It is hard to see in the photo but it shimmers nicely in person.  Leave message if you want any more details on the supplies.  I think it turned out cute.


 I have two wedding showers, two weddings, two graduations, family reunion, garage sale and putting our house up for sale all before fall!  I have a full time schedule working on these things and THEN, ADD craft and bunny business and you can see how busy I am.  All of this on top of two moms and a husband who like to spend quality time NOT working on the house or tending to daily tasks.  Please visit again next week when I have a bit more time to skip rope or play kickball with you wonderful girls.   Thanks for visiting.  See you next week.

I have several more cards to make before the weekend.  So have to "skip" my way back to work.  Hope to join you all on the playground next week when things are just a little lighter.

PS.  I am going to post this on Pixies Crafty Workshop because most of the card was created using snippets.  Even the band around the card was a left over- re-purposed!

    1. Hi Di. Yes I did actually! I used small pieces of black, white and even the bow tie was a small snip of ribbon left over from another card. The paper strip behind the card was also a piece that was cut and left over! Snippets all over the place! Did not have time to post before, but maybe I will bring it to the playground. Just feel bad that I have not had time to play any "paper crafting games" (raindeer games/visit sites) cause so busy. Will post now. Thanks, Theresa
