Greetings All and Welcome to Day 2 of The RemARKables Special Occasion Tour!
Isn't this fun. So many great ideas, I can't wait to try my hand at some of them! Well, back here at Barb's Ink Pad, it's time for part two - Then comes marriage..
You can use this card to celebrate a wedding or an anniversary. I love the colors. The card base is Basic Gray, one of my favs! The pink layer is Pretty In Pink that I ran through the big Shot using the ne embossing folder, Square Lattice. On Whisper White I used Old Olive and Pretty In Pink Stamp and Write Markers for the flower (from the new WaterColor Trio set) . I then used a Square Pink brad from the fire collection in the middle of the flower. The ribbon is Basic Gray Taffeta. The bottom sentiment is from "From the Heart". I stamped it first with Versamark, then Basic Gray ink before stamping it on the card. I then used Iridescent Ice to emboss the sentiment. Voila!
At the end of this post is a little something I made for my parents. I used one of the chip board pieces from the scallop circle On Board book that was in the Occasions mini. The base paper is the new Presto Patterns specialty paper. I brayered it with Basic Gray ink (I used the sponge roller) and the spritzed it with the Vanilla Mist Smooch Spray. On the one side is a picture of my parents matted with Whisper White. I used the medium size clear round rhinestone brads in the corners. The butterflies are from the Big Shot Embosslit Beautiful Wings. The other side has the same base, then a layer of Whisper White, a layer of Basic Gray (embossed with the Finial Press Embossing folder), then another layer of WW with a flower from the set WaterColor Trio. I actually stamped the whole flower in Basic Gray and the colored the flowers in with Real Red Stampin' write marker. Happy Anniversary is from Teeny Tiny Wishes. The ribbon is Basic Gray Taffeta and the slide is from the Silver Hodgepoge Hardware set. Butterflies are from the Beautiful Wings embosslit.
This is their 60th Wedding Anniversaary - which I googled and found was a diamond celebration! That's one reason I tried to stick with the gray & white. Actually I want to make it to my 100th! LOL! That's a 10 K diamond! OhYES!
Enjoy the rest of the tour. I'll be "seeing" you tomorrow!
