…And Away We Go….

Hello there…and welcome to my blog. Hope this card will give you a few ideas for creating slightly different celebration cards. This one is for two very fantastic people – Cory and Jennifer. This is for their wedding this weekend. 

They love their motorcycles.    

Trying to come up with a card that was totally “them” was exciting.   As I started thinking and mentally designing their card, I came up with several different ideas but not exactly what I wanted. Eventually my thoughts lead me to search for chipboard wedding designs. That was when I found my inspiration with the wedding themes on the 14 Craft Bar website. That was all I needed. 

I'm so excited that this project has turned out the way I imagined.
