Congratulations

My DD's best friend is getting married. A purple and silver theme. This is the card I have made for these two young people to celebrate their marriage.



The stamp used is from Papermania "build a cake" that came free in something last year, I can't remember where from.
The sketch is from Paper and Such Online.
I heat embossed all the top layers using my new WOW embossing powders. The cake in purple and the base in silver. Loads of layers diminishing in depth as well as size.

3mm ribbon being wrapped round the base of each tier before attaching to a silver cs base. This in turn, matted onto purple and silver layers.

The card base is pearlised purple layered up with silver card and silver/white DP. Purple organza and satin ribbons to tie together.
The flowers - purple and white heather, purple thistles and white/silver baubles threaded through a grey prima flower dusted with stickles.

All the flowers are from Duck Pond Crafts.
The sentiment is computer generated, as I don't own the appropriate stamp, printed in purple and mat and layered as the image.
The punch used throughout is a MS one.

I made an envelope box to fit

I am entering this into the challenge
