Tied The Knot

Hi everyone.

Lexa here today, I'm going to share a wedding card featuring Lawn Fawn Tied The Knot stamp set. All the images are so sweet and adorable, my favorite is this bird couple. They are perfect as a wedding cake topper, look so cute..aren't they? I color my images using Distress Markers and blend it with damp brush.

For the background I blend Mermaid and Hippo dye inks, using stencil from Tim Holtz. Then cut the background with my Stitched Rectangle dies.

I also add vellum to toned down the background, make it looks softer. And choose grey cardstock to make thin borders.

I use my Clear Wink of Stella on the banner for extra sparkle, and what is a card without sequins. Heehee. Sequin is really my thing!

I hope you love this card and enjoy the rest of your day. Cheers.
