Happy Couple

Hi Everyone, I am very late with my blog post today. I am still trying to sort out far too many things, dont have enough time and I am desperately falling behind. I am sharing this card today, made with the Sara's 'Rustic Wedding' Collection, as it's been such a huge success. As always, I have provided a full Tutorial with additional photos, which I do hope you will enjoy.

You Will Need:

Rustic Wedding Delicate Heart Dies

Rustic Wedding Chic Border Die

Rustic Wedding Just Married Die

Rustic Wedding A4 Printed Kraft Card

Rustic Wedding Jute Twine

Sue Wilson Largest of the Ornate Pierced Rectangles (Noble Collection)

Funky Foam, Craft foam or similar

Parchment

Red or Silver Mirri card

Centura Pearl White 'Hint of Silver'

Quickie Glue Pen

Clear Glitter

White Stayzon Ink Pad

Embossing tool and Embossing Mat

Clear Tape

Crafters Companion Tape Runner

Step 1: Cut the 'Just Married' die in Funky Foam, You will only need the couple for this. (See Photo). Secure this to a stamping block and stamp onto the parchment using White Stayzon Ink.

Step 2: From the back of your parchment, emboss on a mat using the small embossing tool, Just the outline and a little white work for shape and dimension.

Step 3: You will need a card blank measuring  6 3/4'' x 8 1/4''. Centre the die into the front of your card to create the aperture.

 Step 4: Take another sheet of card, again centre the die, This will eventually go on the inside front of your card to cover the workings.

Step 5: Cut out the Chic Border 4 times

Step 6: Select a sheet from the Printed Kraft Card pack.

Step 7:Cut the couple out using the outer Delicate Border die, also one from mirri card. Secure the parchment to the mirri using a tape runner around the edges. Scribble on the parchments around the edge and cover with clear glitter.

Cut another Heart using Centura Pearl, then the full heart with decorative insert from Kraft card.

Step 8: Secure a Chic Border die centrally on the inside of your card (Pearl Outward Facing). Repeat this top and bottom. Secure a length of twine between the centre points and secure with clear tape. Secure the Chic Border die cuts over the first to pan bottom, this time pearl facing inwards.

Step 9: Secure the inner aperture  to hide all the workings and give a professional look. To finish your card carefully sandwich the hearts together across the jute, making sure the heart is central between top and bottom of the card.

Thank you ever so much for joining me again today, It's always nice to have your company. I hope hope you have enjoyed the tutorial I have shared along with the finished card. I do hope you will stop by again to see what I have to share. Have a great weekend and see you next week. Take care and Happy Crafting.xx
