Instructions: My card is 6 X 6. Make card base out of watercolor paper. I sometimes use that because of the strength and stability of the paper. Cover the base with a card front and add glitter accents; set it aside to dry. Stamp, diecut, color and shape the flowers and leaves (I used Rich Cocoa Memento Ink to stamp the flowers and leaves and Pearlescent Coral ink to color). Use the Frosting Powder on the petals of the flowers and set aside to dry. Once the petals are dry I glued them together and then decided where I wanted them to be placed and adhere on bard base. I cut out the sentiment and edged it with Pearlescent coral ink and then used dimensional tape to adhere to the front of my card.

Instructions: Assemble the cake pedestal as directed from the SVG file Mr. & Mrs (svgcuts.com). The pie slice/cupcake boxes were cut from the Silhouette Studio but I know Cricut has a great pie slice box as well. Cut eight cake boxes for the first layer. You can cover styrofoam with the wedding designer paper for the second layer. You can add additional layers of the pie slice/cupcake boxes if you have more than eight people at the guest table.
The Roses were stamped on white cardstock with Versamark Ink and silver embossing powder, heat set, diecut. The Sponge with Sweet Plum Memento Ink and shape with the Deluxe Flower Shaping Tool. Assemble flowers and allow to dry. A light coat of Crackle Paint was applied and dusted with frosting powder, heat set. Emma Lou has a wonderful tutorial on creating roses here.
The Classic Wedding Bell set was stamped on X-Press It Blending Cardstock with Versamark Ink and silver embossing powder. They were colored with Copic Alcohol Markers - C0, C1, C3, C4, die cut with the coordinating die. I die cut 4 additional bells from grey paper and layered with dimensional mounting tape in-between each layer amke them 3D. Designer Dries Clear adhesive was applied lightly to the bells and were sprinkled with Crystal Clear glitter.
The cake was assembled and embellished with the flowers, rhinestones, pearls, tulle, favor ties and satin silver edged ribbon.
The cake is placed on the wedding guest table. The pie slice/cupcake boxes contain cupcakes that were made from the wedding cake batter and each guest at the table can take one cake slice home at the end of the evening. If you have more than eight guests per table, you can increase the number of layers for your centerpiece. You can create one cake creation for each guest table. I will be creating this project for some friends that will be getting married next month and will be using the color theme they are using for their wedding.

Instructions: My card size is 6 X 6". Make card base and cover with one of the card fronts. Die cut the oval layers on white cardstock using dimensional tape under the top layer to give it a bit more dimension. I also cut an oval using a piece of the pattern paper so that some color is showing through the white top die cut. Next adhere it to the card front covering most of the image on the paper. Using the hot glue gun, I glued the silver rings to the card front.
Using Tuxedo Black Memento Ink, stamp and diecut the wedding bells. Color them using the Dove Blender Pen and Memento Ink (Bamboo Leaves, New Sprout, Tuxedo black and Pearlescent Coral). Next I added glitter to the bells and set them aside to dry. Using Rich Cocoa Memento Ink stamp, diecut, color and shape the flowers. I colored some of the art stones using the Pearlescent Coral stamp pad; just rub them over the top of the pad until they look like you want them to. Glue them to the center of the flowers and let dry. Next I colored the seam binding by spraying water on it so it would accept color easily, then rub the stamp pad on the craft sheet and spray water into the ink. Swirl the seam binding in the color; scrunch and let dry. Next tie a bow and glue it down. Decide where you like your flowers and glue them down onto the bells and then glue the bells to the front of the card. Your card is finished.
