Mr And Mrs


Hi all
I have been playing with my Stampin Up stash ...and this is what i came up with ..
I used SU language of friendship boho blossoms stamps for the flowers ,The Mr and Mrs stamp is also from SU both were embossed  with red glittered WOW powders. which have not shown up too great in the pic!!!! Then the stamped images were punched out with the corresponding  SU blossom punch
 I cut the card blank with a nestie die and  then embossed the card front with a darice embossing folder,the swirls are a memory box die.
.The fabulous background behind the mr and mrs is the tied together embossing folder by couture creations...i cannot get hold of one for love nor money  and so a fabby trimcraft member called sonia[swania] very kindly sent me some ready embossed..is she not a fab friend...
The tiny red pearls are from meiflower crafts..
I am having great fun editing my pics too ..a fellow Make It Monday  DT member called chrissy told me about a site called   http://ipiccy.com/  and it is fab,quick ,easy, FREE and no registration required
