Lifetime of Happiness

It seems like I have created quite a few wedding cards recently and for the ones I have to show you today, I used the Lifetime of Love stamp set pairing it with the Perennial Lavender 

designer series paper.

The sentiment was stamped with Gorgeous Grape ink on a die cut made with the Spotlight on Nature dies and I added a few Tinsel Gems Three Pack embellishments to complete the card.

I just love the colors and patterns in the Perennial Lavender paper collection, and it is always hard to pick just one for a project, so I used two!

Supplies:

Lifetime of Love

Gorgeous Grape ink

Crumb Cake, Basic White, Fresh Freesia card stock

Tinsel Gems Three Pack

Spotlight on Nature dies

Perennial Lavender dsp

Just a Note

I am drawn to the sayings in the Simply Said stamp set not only because they are common sentiments, but also because of the fun font that half of them have. 

For this simple card, I used two patterns of Perennial Lavender designer series paper, a strip of Gorgeous Grape card stock and a die cut made with the Nested Essentials Dies.

The sentiment is stamped with Gorgeous Grape ink and the butterflies from the Painted Lavender stamp set are stamped with Highland Heather ink.
