Last month was full of fun and excitement for our family as our niece and her fiancé tied the knot here on Oahu.
For a personalized wedding card, I used the print and cut function on Make the Cut design program to create a heart shaped window with the couple's names welded inside and the date of their wedding along the right side of the heart. Behind the window, I placed a photo that was taken of the couple a year ago when Sam surprised Ashley with a wedding proposal on the beach.
Inside, I used my all time favorite Karen Burniston Photo Collage Pop Up mechanism die to animate photos of the couple from their wedding website as well as a few I had taken at their wedding shower. Kept the decorating to a minimum using only a few random glitter hearts and a die cut word "love" from Karen Burniston's Pop 'N Swap die set.
I printed up an image of water color koi and used an envelope template cutfile to create an envelope for our gift. The red envelope and pouch were quickly put together a few days before the wedding to take to the couple's Chinese Tea Pouring Ceremony. I found a neat stylized heart shaped Chinese character for the word "Happiness" which was rendered into a cutting file using Make the Cut. I cut the characters from gold foil cardstock and backed it with red glitter to make a tag for the pouch and an embellishment backed with pearlescent gold paper for the red envelope.
