Wedding Tent Card


Here is my first tent fold card.  The tutorial for it is here.
This is a wedding card for some friends who are to be married soon.  I love this birdcage which is on the *Serenade* Cricut cartridge.  I cut out 2 of them and glued them together to make it a little more sturdy, then attached it to the top of the opening using a small jump ring.  The opening is cut out with my scalloped octagon Nesties die.  The flowers are from Maya Rd. and the white & silver d.p. paper is  by *Creative Imaginations* and purchased at Michaels. I used my Swiss Dots embossing folder for the background.

A closer look...


Challenges...
Allsorts ~ *You've Been framed*
Delightful Inspiration ~ *Anything Goes*
Less is More ~ *Things That Move*
The Shabby Tearoom ~ *Polka Dots*
(hope my Swiss Dots embossing qualify as polka dots)


Hope you have a great day everyone,
thanks for stopping by,

    This is a most attractive card, although it is rather ornate for our challenge where we like to see CAS cards with areas of white space.
    For any submission to be considered for our challenges we also need to have a mention of our challenge in your posting and a link back to our blog!
    Thanks so much
