Special Wedding Card

Hi Everyone.  Hope you are all enjoying some sunshine.  Here is a card I made yesterday for our lovely neighbours,  who get married on Saturday.  To be honest with you, I nearly bought a card and then had second thoughts, the prices for a decent card are ridiculous.  So I went home and duly got out some card and vellum and started my card.  It started out as a very simple card,  but I thought it looked to white and made these vellum Clematis flowers and leaves and it just gave it the lift it needed.  I always make my own flowers , but recently I lost my urge to make anything. However, I so enjoyed my day in the craft room yesterday, that I intend to make another card in the afternoon.  Sending my Best Wishes to everyone.  Hugs Rita xxxx

This is far more beautiful than any card you could buy and they certainly won't have another one the same! Pleased to hear you actually enjoyed making it and are planning some more crafting - very therapeutic I find although I know that sometimes we have to give ourselves a kick up the B******e to get going after a break! Take care

I know it's been a while since I dropped in, so I'm glad your visit gave me a nudge. I'm home for the first time in a long while, and enjoying settling back in a bit for a time. Love this delicate, pretty card. Those flowers are ethereally lovely. Hope all is well with you, and very glad to hear you are re-finding your urge to create.
