Welcome to the Pals’ Blog Hop! While the COVID 19 pandemic is adding stress to our lives, we Pals hope this blog hop will help to lift your spirits. Let us inspire you to take a creative break and relax for a little while. This month our theme is “Special Occasions” where we have made a project for just about any occasion you can think of! You’ll find the full line-up below to help you “hop” along from Pal to Pal.
I recently received a wedding “save the date,” so it inspired me to create a wedding card with someone special in mind.

Mr. & Mrs.
I began with a Thick Whisper White card base, using one of the new Ornate Borders Dies to decorate the edge. It turned out perfectly…..the second time. The first time, my pretty border was accidentally, completely cut from the card front.
TIP: Make sure the die is facing the right direction. See the straight piece on the ends of the die? The larger portion of the die needs to face the fold of the card.
However, I didn’t let my die-cut mistake go to waste. Can you see how pretty it looks, decorating the envelope flap, in the first picture?
Next, I found the sentiment in the Last A lifetime Stamp Set. I stamped “To The New Mr. & Mrs.” in VersaMark, sprinkled it with Gold Embossing Powder, and set it with the Heat Tool. An Ornate Layers Die was just the right size for cutting.
Beneath the sentiment, I added foliage made with Frosted Bouquet Dies and a Botanical Tags Die, cut from Purple Posy, Soft Sea Foam, and Whisper White Cardstock. For a touch of sparkle, I added a few Iridescent Sequins.
I continued the sentiment on the inside, also from the Last A Lifetime Stamp Set. The same gold embossing technique was used, and then framed by using an Ornate Layers Die.
I appreciate you hopping to my blog today. Thank you! The supplies for today’s card can be seen in my Product List below.
More inspiration awaits! Use the Blog Hop Line-up below to visit the rest of this month’s Design Team. My fellow Pals are excited to show you what they’ve created! Mark your calendars for Wednesday, May 13th, when we will say “Goodbye to January Mini and 2019 Annual Catalog and/or Hello to 2020 Annual Catalog.” The Design Team will showcase their favorites from the retiring catalogs or new products from the new catalog. Don’t miss the fun! And, until then, please stay safe.

Wow, just stunning. I love all the gorgeous detail. Just beautiful!
I love this stunning card! Thanks for the tip on cutting the die also!!
Such a beautiful wedding card! The details are perfect. Thanks for the tip on the die! 😀 My Ornate suite arrived yesterday but I have to wait 24 hours to open the box. How’s that for driving a stamper crazy!?
That card is absolutely beautiful. Your cards are always so neat and crisp looking. The gold embossing is nice too. I’ve never had good luck with embossing like that, maybe just need more practice. Stay safe and away from all the sickness.
This couldn’t be lovelier. I adore the delicate border, and everything else about this card!
Beautiful card, Su! Thanks for the tip on which way the die goes. I did it wrong the first time too and didn’t try a second time until now, to see how it works. 🙂
WOW! Gorgeous! You are such an artist!
Oh my goodness this is stunning! My nephew is hoping to have his wedding the first week of June and I was looking for inspiration for their card….this is it! Thank you for sharing your talents!
Awesome card. I need to make a wedding card for hopefully a wedding in August
Wow! This is absolutely gorgeous. I must make this card. Thanks for sharing your wonderful creations.
Wonderful card. My nephew is getting married this September if the virus allows. This card would be perfect for him and his new bride.
This card is stunning! I love how you used the dies for the edging on the front, it add such a special touch. I’m sure the bride and groom will be so happy to receive such a gorgeous, personal card.
Simply and Specially Beautiful Su! Love how you put your own stamp on this Pals Hop!
I am in love with these dies and all the possibilities! Beautiful card!!!!
You make the most beautiful cards. Thank you so much for sharing your immense talent with all of us.
Just beautiful Sue. The white on white with touches of pastel is so pretty. I noticed your die cut on the envelope flap right away. Great way to use that stamp set and die set.
The lady look is perfect for a wedding and this is elegant and beautiful!
Stunning card, Su…both inside and out!
Always the artist! Absolutely gorgeous card. The gold embossing is really so dramatic against the soft color palette. Love the envelope, too, but thanks for the cutting tip about the die placement direction… And for sharing your immense talent. Bravp
