CWS November - Wedding

I decided that I would use different techniques but keep to the theme.



I used a dress form as the base for the Bride card.  I 'dressed' the form with ribbon straps, lace bodice and net overskirt.   I cut and placed metallic paper 'curtains' at each side of the card with a 'valence' across the top.  I then added my dressform to the centre.



I drew the Groom's jacket and coloured it with felt tip adding a brown revers with matching handkerchief in the pocket.  A smart bowtie finished off the outfit, so I added a metallic blue curtain at the back.





I cut out different papers in the shape of the cake and then drew the figures for the top.  I used a small spotted blue paper for the background and white brocade ribbon to represent the tablecloth and then 'built' up the cake and added the figures to the top.  



I received these cards in return:

Loving hearts on red background


Silver cupids on black.


Really gorgeous gold carriage on red.
  Thank you Helen
