Two Posts in ONE DAY?!? Best Wishes

Okay, so I really did this all wrong.  I suppose I should have been working on the Paper Players challenge FIRST since the deadline is TONIGHT.  Oops.  So, instead, I'll do two posts in one day.  I'm sure nobody minds. ;o)

The challenge the Paper Players have going on is:

Well, my sweet cousin, Emily is being married next month and I needed a card to send.  The music that has been cruising through my head since the invitation arrived is, "Going to the Chapel", hence, my card. :o)

Is my stamping drought coming to an end?  Oh, I certainly hope so!

This card uses:
Stamps: "Short and Sweet"
Paper: Whisper White, Sahara Sand
Ink: Sahara Sand
Accessories: Basic Pearls, Elegant Lines embossing folder

I wanted something clean, simple and elegant and I do believe this fits the bill.  :o)

Elegant Wedding

Brien will be the best man in a wedding Saturday. Assuming I can find babysitting, I'll be attending as well (our sitters sort of fell through and now I'm scrambling). I needed a card for the happy couple and knew I wanted something understated and elegant.

Thinking "elegant", I promptly thought of my "Elegant Lines" embossing folder and from there the card simply gelled. :o) To set off the embossing, I decided to use dimensionals to give it a "lift".


My biggest problem was finding an appropriate stamp for the inside, as most of my sentiments, while having a nifty font, were too informal for this card. I came upon "Sincere Salutations" and knew it was perfect. :o)

This card uses:
Stamp Sets: "Teeny Tiny Wishes" (this is SO a "must have" set!), "Sincere Salutations"
Paper: Whisper White, Sahara Sand
Ink: Sahara Sand
Accessories: "Elegant Lines" embossing folder, pearls, dimensionals

I just LOVE how beautiful and simple this card is!
