Bridal Shower Cards

Hey Everyone! It's Day #5. I cannot believe we are already this far into the month, it seems like time is totally flying and next thing we know Christmas will be here.

Today I decided that I was going to work on one of my orders. As part of the order my customer had asked for 2 Bridal Shower cards. I remembered seeing this quite a few months back on pinterest, so I thought that I would try and see if I could recreate these dresses. The results are astounding. I totally didn't think I could do it and I pulled it off.

What do you think? Its super cute right!

Now this was another one of those cards that I couldn't make just one. I made 4 similar cards. The colours are different, and the dresses are similar but finishings are different. I thought 2 for her order and 2 for my stash. So happy with the way they turned out.

Here's the fronts of the cards...

About Me

My name is Amanda and I am 27 years old. I first began scrapbooking pages and trying to learn/teach my way through it. I then decided to join a local crop night and learned how to put together various page layouts and how to use different tools and techniques. I then moved away to school. I searched for a stress release while I was away and stumbled upon Under Construction Stamps, and the owner (who now is basically my 2nd mom) taught me tons. I took card making classes, book classes, etc and LOVED every minute of it. 2009 was when I was first introduced to wood mount rubber stamps, and from there it became a hobby and an addiction in a sense. I have been making cards to give to family and friends since 2009 and recently I have been making a lot of commission cards for friends, family and people in the public. I love what I do and this blog is a way of helping to inspire others as well as showing off incredible stamp images from some very talented and incredible designers.
