Well this is the project I was working on that I couldn't show some weeks back and why I was gone from blogging land for a while. As you can see it is for the forthcoming Royal Wedding, the idea came to me very quickly but the planning and making of the card took over 20 hours but I am really happy with the result.
I chose to use the colours from the official wedding china, blue and gold with a hint of distressing.

Onto the details, backing paper is from Pink Petticoat, hand stitched and distressed with Antique Linen from Tim Holtz. The paper aida was cg, again distressed with the same ink and obviously hand cross stitched! For the flowers I have used Sizzix Bigz 3d flower die and completed with pearl beads. Martha Stewart branch punch,some pearl sprays and two heart pins from Wild Orchid Crafts. As you can see it is an easel style card and for the bottom part I have used some fab lace from Cuddly Buddly and the sentiment is from LOTV.
I also made a matching box but this time I have stitched some love birds.
Not the best light to take the pictures in!
