Bridge of Love

Hello, sparkly friends! I'm posting a sweet little wedding card on the Live & Love Crafts blog today. The florals in Maja Design's Summertime are beautiful for all things lovey-dovey. ♥︎
For the focal point, I combined two stunning Wycinanka chippies: Bridge of Love is nestled within the Blueberry Swirls frame (one of my favorites). I debated for quite some time how to handle this combination, but in the end I preferred leaving them in their natural, minimally-adorned state. ♥︎
Sweet little clusters of Wild Orchid Crafts blossoms (and a Pomegranate Apple for sparkle) accent the frame, while a tiny Maja butterfly has landed atop the railing. ♥︎ The frame is surrounded with Shabbylicious Ruffle Lace for softness. Pearl Drop Trim and Tulle are quintessential wedding, above which I added a panel of butterflies (a Die-Versions die). One of Sandy's new pretty trims is Alicia, with which I have lined the butterfly panel and accented the rolled corner.
Tiny Pearl String and Flatback Pearl String accent throughout, while shabby Liberty Bells ring atop a Lace Heart Appliqué. (I have run myself out of these Liberty Bells... they are so beautiful!) The top of my card is a Joy! Crafts Edge die. My sentiment is from My Craft Spot (no longer in business).

Thank you for visiting and I wish you a sparkly day! ♥︎

Summer Fun

Hello, sweet friends! My posting day on the Live & Love Crafts blog has changed to Wednesdays to help out a teamie, so here I am mid-week! In my hustle to get something made, I had to put off visiting your lovely blogs. I look forward to leaving you sparkly love today. :o)
*Edit: This is also for the fabulous new challenge at Deep Ocean Challenge, where we are immersing ourselves in summer and crafting with a Beach/Seaside theme! Please come join us! :o)

I am sharing a card featuring Maja Design's Summertime. There is a sweet story about what inspired this card, but alas I am unable to sit and type it out. Just know that it is filled with the utmost love for someone in need.
This is such a versatile collection, with elegant florals and whimsical summertime scenes. I fell in love with the precious children on one sheet, so I chose to use it as a focal point of summer fun.
Framing the scene is Wycinanka's Fleur de Lis, within which I nestled seashells and pearls. The sweet mini star bottle is filled with teeny shells and a sprinkling of glamour dust (which shows up nicely in person). For the pretty little flags, I used Wycinanka Paris Borders and Lacy Banner dies from My Craft Spot (no longer in business). All of my chippies are covered in crackle paint.
The foliage within the large flower arrangement is from Joy! Crafts Oval Frame. Maja perfectly captured summertime fun in the playful designs within the collection. :o) Thank you for visiting and I wish you a beautiful day. ♥︎
