Dies to Die For: Stamping Bella - 'I Do' Brett and Brenda Get Married

Happy Thursday friends!

I hope the week has been kind to you and you have managed to enjoy some of the lovely weather we've had!

It's Sue here today and I have some wedding invitations to show you!

I don't generally take commissions but I simply could nt say no to my lovely friend and her now hubby!

After some very easy going consultation we decided to use some beautiful stamps from

Dies To Die For

Stamping Bella - Brett and Brenda Get Married

Stamping Bella - Close-Ups 'I Do'

and a sentiment from

Colorado Craft Company Ever Thine by Anita Jeram

...and here's a close up for you...

I love the elegance and simplicity of my friend Kate's choice. The clean and simple designs along with the coloured images works perfectly in my view!

The images were stamped in black ink onto card suitable for alcohol markers and then coloured with Copic Markers. (I'll pop a list of the colours I used at the end of this post for you).

I cropped Brett and Benda to make a smaller design which worked well considering both designs together.

Important note here if you consider something similar - I used the same white card to create the layers as I used for the coloured images.

Not all white card is the same colour and hue - I discovered this ages ago in an horrendous 'white on white' card challenge which looked awful in the end because I had used different card textures and the whites were a mile off when looked at together!

I stamped the sentiments in grey ink as it looked a little gentler than using black.
