Here Comes the Bride

Hello again!  Our daughter is getting married in June and there is a bridal shower for her this weekend.  This is the card I made to include with her gift.
I've had a pattern for the torso of a woman that I converted into this silhouette of the bride. I traced it onto white cardstock and stamped the swirls in Versamark ink.  I sprinkled heat and stick powder over that and heat set it.  This stuff is super sticky. ( On a side note, if you use the heat and stick powder, try to avoid inhaling close to it.  It's very fine powder and it can be irritating.)  While it was sticky, I sprinkled dazzling diamonds glitter on top and reheated it to set the glitter.  It's so sparkly!  I tied a black ribbon around the waistline.  The bride and groom's colors are black, white and yellow.  This is a very simple card, but elegant just the same. 
Thanks for stopping by!
