Can You Handle the Pressure - Twist - Wedding

 

 Hello Friends, thanks for stopping by today!

We have a new challenge starting today over on our new Can You Handle The Pressure Challenge Blog and the TWIST theme is 

'WEDDING'.  

Remember, the twist is optional but you MUST use an embossing folder on our projects to qualify for the prize.  Heat embossing is also permitted but only in conjunction with an embossing folder.


Back in February, my cousin Matthew married his long time partner Dean.
They are both such wonderful and loving people that I wanted to make a special card for their wedding and this is what I came up with.  This second photo is a close up of the hearts embossing folder as I did cover a fair amount of it in my overall design.

I used the following products for today's creation:

Provo Craft Cuttlebug - Hearts embossing folder
Marianne Designs 'Men's Wardrobe' (COL1434)
Spellbinder Heart Dies
Tutti Designs 'Forever' die
Prima flower
White Nuvo Drops
Dimensional tape

I do hope you'll come check out our new blog and play along.
AND yep ... we will be offering prizes at our challenges ... that's always a fun surprise!

Here's today's prize offering . . .
