This week at Suzy Bee's Bloomin' Challenge Blog our wonderful sponsor is Dazzling Ace Designs!!!! Of course it's always Anything Goes but this week with an optional twist - wedding!!!!!
NOW . . . I hate to admit this but I'm not a wedding type nor do I like to make wedding cards. Granted, I've been married 3 times and have failed all 3 times sew, I should have this down pat but I don't!!!!!!! I did have several good role models but just didn't have the right guy or I wasn't the right gal!!!!!! My grandparents and parents were married for over 50 years EACH!!!!! My dad's parents weren't married that long as my dad's mother had passed away at a very young age during child birth.
My parents: June 15, 1951 and both died within a month of each other in 2011
My mother's parents: June 15, 1921
My dad's parents:
I thank you for stopping by today and can't wait to see your creations this week with Suzy Bee's Bloomin' Blog Challenge!!!!

- Recollection coral card stock for size A2 card with scraps as the background fussy cut around the flowers to give dimensional look
- image is pre-colored with Stickles out-lining the lace, bridal bouquet, and veil
- wanted a vintage photo album feel thus the need for the corners attached to image

The photo tinting is just gorgeous as is the touch of glitter to bring out the picture. Perfect entry for the "girly" challenge at Brown Sugar Challenges. Good luck!
