For the Newlyweds

Gary's niece married on June 16th and this was the card I made for them.  Their colors were chocolate brown and olive, but I just couldn't fit much olive into a wedding card!  Melissa married a good friend of Gary's and we're so happy for both of them.  The wedding was very, very western as our new nephew, Richie, is as much of a cowboy as any man can be!  Melissa is a recent college graduate (nursing) and it's been a busy couple of months for both of them.  I hear she's pretty handy during branding time, too!


Card base: Very Vanilla (SU)
Layers: Gold, Early Espresso & Very Vanilla (SU)
Stamp Set:s: Apothecary Art & Teeny Tiny Wishes (SU); Rose from Golden Years (CTMH) and embossed with gold embossing powder
Labels Framelits Dies (SU)
Gold Pen for edge of sentiment
Roses & Leaves colored with Mellow Moss & Barely Banana makers (SU)
Cream sheer ribbon: JoAnn's

Note: the brown edge on the left & bottom is poor photography, not part of the card!
