Mr. & Mrs.

I needed to make some wedding cards for a card basket for a fund raiser this summer. 
When I saw this Mr. & Mrs. Diva  set from Gina K I knew it would be a fun set to work with.  I've also wanted to work with the design element of glitter so I decided to combine the two.  I chose to keep the colors very light and soft on the image so I used a pale cool grey Copic for the groom and several pale shades of violet for the bride.
The matting is Papertrey Ink.  Then came the fun part.  I ran two different widths of Score-Tape down the side and sprinkled Martha Stewart glitter on it (my how glitter goes everywhere).  After shaking off the excess I took some tissue paper and ran my finger over the glitter to tamp it down.
Hope you like it and thanks for stopping by.
