Hello friends! I'm the hostess over at Just Us Girls this week for our Word Week challenge. My niece is getting married in July and I thought WEDDING would be a good choice for this challenge.
I used to make wedding cakes, so this stamp/die/stencil set from Pink Fresh was perfect for this wedding card. It reminded me of all the beautiful weddings my cakes were part of. I started by stamping the images in black ink and adding color using the coordinating stencils. I used gold Delicata ink on the cake. I die cut the cake and flowers and then the cake stand from gold card stock. I wanted a foiled background, so I used this Pink Fresh hot foil plate and gold foil to create it. The sentiment was die cut from the same gold card stock as the cake stand as well as two more times from white card stock for dimension. After adhering everything to the foiled background, I added gold crystals to it and to the cake stand. The main panel was added to the card base using craft foam.

Thanks for stopping by!

Simply divine Lisa. Love the background for your beautiful cake and that bold sentiment die.
I made a wedding cake once but this one by Pinkfresh is so much easier. I love the gold background for yours, Lisa. Great word this week. Now my granddaughter's card is ready to go.
I don't know if I knew that you used to make wedding cakes or if I forgot...anyways...this is one gorgeous card! Great challenge this week too!
Gorgeous wedding cake, Lisa! And you used to make wedding cakes? That's awesome! The best I do, baking-wise, is chocolate chip cookies. I'm neither a cook nor a baker LOL! Love your card!
