It is so rainy and dreary ! I guess the good of it is at least the temperature was near 50, but it still felt so chilly .
My daughters and I are going to a WEDDING SHOWER tomorrow. The bride to be is a beautiful young lady, and so full of happiness and joy, it just bubbles out of her..
My daughter Krista is doing the cake , so I offered to make the card . ~OH SILLY ME ~ lol
I will post a picture of the cake as soon as I have one...
Keep in mind I am just not much in the creative mode, every time I think I am, whew, it flies out the window again . I wanted to try for something frilly, and pretty.. hmmm that did not happen at all . But I did come up with something a bit more simple, maybe more modern, or non traditional .
Her colors are pale yellow and a form of purple, so I went with the yellow.~ barely banana to be exact
I used an old set called CELEBRATION and added a touch of a embossed partial layer , trimmed in ribbon ; then just simple mounting, rounded corners, a touch of bling to give the flowers dimension and
a white opague gel pen for the rain drops
and here you have it . : )
Thanks for stopping by, glad I had the hot water ready for tea... and the banana bread sliced and ready to serve : )
Til next time, smile and enjoy each day
Sonja
So thanks again for stopping by...
I hear warmer temps are on the way... hope we can enjoy some time on the front porch soon : )
Have a great week ...
It's really pretty, Sonja! The young lady will love it even more from you. I think you're right, the sentiment is very appropriate. Laughter and living--really living with each other--is important in marriage. Have a great time at the shower and don't forget to take pic of the cake so I can see it!
ReplyDeletethank you Tam, someday I will reach my goal to make a really pretty card...lol
ReplyDeleteyes I will post a pic of the cake I saw one on Krista phone it looks amazing : )
yes Live Love and Laugh are part of marriage ... will add the others important ingredients in the wedding card : )
Soni, this is so gorgeous! I love the soft colors - perfect for the wedding shower. Very pretty EF for the background.
ReplyDeleteThanks Maggie ok honest opinion please what would you do to dress this up???
DeleteThose flowers on the cake are just gorgeous! Krista does do fabulous work. Your card is just perfect the way it is Soni. No additions.
ReplyDeleteOh how beautiful! I love the purple roses! Awesome job Soni.., wanna come make me a b'day cake? LOL
ReplyDeleteUm my daughter the cake baking, not me ~ but I do send you a very Happy Birthday wish today Vikki
DeleteYour DD's cake looks yummy and so pretty! Your card is pretty too and I like the embossing folder you chose.
ReplyDeleteYour card turned out great! I like how you added the embossed layer to it. The cake looks delicious. Wish I had a piece right now:-)
ReplyDeleteLove the card Soni. I really wish you could see your work as others do. Your work is beautiful. I know Julie will treasure the card and the love in which it was created.
ReplyDeletethanks Kel just wish I had the feeling I used to have when I created...
DeleteHey Soni! I really like the simplicity of your card. . .Frilly isn't always a good choice, and your card proves it. What also amazes me is that even though you didn't have stamps for a wedding shower, you chose an image that was perfect which just shows your talent. The cake looks awesome too! Hope you are well! Hugs, Curt
ReplyDeleteawe thank you , not talent, just self preservation in a time of need lol
Deleteand yes the cake was good my daughter is amazing at that too, hers taste as good as they look... : )
