Floral Spring Wedding Card Tutorial:

Step 1.

When I first started making this floral spring wedding card, I started by creating my floral design using my Misti stamping tool and my new layering stamp set. The Misti stamping tool is great for layering designs because it allows you to lay the stamp exactly where you want it on the paper. You can also stamp down a single stamp multiple times to get the desired look.

 

Step 2.

I chose my Ranger archival mini ink pads set #3 and my Hero Arts ‘Hero’s Pineapple’ layering ink pad set to stamp the images onto my Neenah Solar White cardstock for this cards focal point.

When I was creating that spring floral pattern, I tried to layer similar colors on top of each other. So you’ll see that I started the bottom layer with a light pink, or light green for the leaves, then I used the darker color on top. Once I was finished with the stamped floral design I found a sheet of deep lavender purple recollections cardstock to use as my background for the floral stamps.

 

 

Step 3.

Next, I added some green ribbon on top of some striped gold and white patterned cardstock to create the background for this design. I made the background so that it could fit on an A2 size greeting card so I trimmed a sheet of 8.5 x 5.5-inch sheet of cardstock and scored it down the middle to create the card base.

 

Step 4.

Lastly, I stamped the words ‘happy wedding day’ in Forest Green ink from Hero Arts then I added some light lavender rhinestones over top of the sentiment to embellish it further.
