Wedding Wishes

Hi All,

This weekend we are busy having a crafting weekend...we started last night and are going into Sunday evening.  So very much fun!!!  My living room has been transformed into "Craft Central"!

I don't often get time to craft these days but love it so much more when it's with great friends!!

I'd like to take a minute to thank the gals over at Create with Connie and Mary for choosing my Father's Day card as one of their top 3!  Thank you!!  You can check out that card here.

Today I decided to play along with a couple of challenges:

1. Colour Me...!

This week the color theme is Real Red and a neutral.  I decided to switch it up a bit and went with Cherry Cobbler as I really wanted to use the Cherry Cobbler embossing powder.  I'm sure the ladies won't mind...

2. Freshly Made Sketches

I really loved this week's sketch over at Freshly Made!

Here is my creation:

Card Recipe (all products used are Stampin' Up! products unless otherwise noted):

Card Stock: Cherry Cobbler, Whisper White, Something Borrowed DSP
