Just Married Card

About 10 years ago, a young girl from China lived with us while she studied in our city.  I used to love our after-dinner walks together.  She would practise her English and I would learn all about her life and her culture.  Canning decided to stay in Canada and continued her studies to become an accountant.  She lives in the "Big City" (Toronto) now and has met a man!  I've made this card for their upcoming wedding next month.

I used Paper Doll Dress Up for the car, and cut two layers, inking both.  The bride and groom were cut from Stretch Your Imagination.  (I had this cartridge for about a year before I opened it last month.  I can't believe all the goodies I've been missing!)  I used Design Studio to flip the groom in order to make the couple look like they're both in the car.  I embossed the bride's dress with a Cuttlebug border folder.  The veil was cut with vellum.  I've also used vellum for the faces of the bride and groom.  I even made a tiny necklace for the bride!  The groom is flat against the card, but the bride is popped a bit and the car is popped even more.

The sentiment frame was cut from Ashlyn's Alphabet.  I cut a green shadow layer and then used the same cardstock as the bride's dress to do the middle layer.  The top layer was cut from vellum and the sentiment is computer generated.  I attached eyelets to the frame and filled each eyelet with a bead to tie in with the beads trailing from the car.  I added buttons to the wheels and a few rhinestones on the right side of the card.  I did have some beads there, but apparently they had other plans and left their positions.  My glue dots were too big and I did not want them visible so opted for the rhinestones.

This card will be entered at the following challenges:
Fantabulous Cricut - For the Bride using something old (I've had the beads forever!)
