It's a wedding!!!

 Wedding cards are so much fun to make -- and they provide the perfect "excuse" to add all kinds of extra bling to a card.  Here's one I made up recently to be used as a money holder.
Here's a view of how I did the inside:
Supplies used:
  • Old music
  • Swiss Dots Embossing folder (Provo Craft)
  • Pink ink
    • over embossing and around edges
  • Punches
    • Threading Water Border Punch (Fiskars)
    • Monarch Butterflies Trim (Martha Stewart)
    • Bird Punch (Martha Stewart)
  •  Sentiment -- Word Borders (Hero Arts)
  •  Tissue Paper (to make flower)
  • Scallop Circle Nestabilities (to make flower)
  • Floral Embellishments (Recollections)
  • Homemade Glimmer Mist (over tissue paper flower)
  • Pink Gauzy Ribbon
  • String of Pearls
  • Tiny Pink Rhinestones
Here's a closer view of that flower
And the bling beside it
