Ruby Wedding Card

This morning my MIL phoned me to ask if I had shown her a Ruby wedding card the other day as she was sure I had but I hadnt anyway she has been pretty ill the past couple of days and had been planning on making a card for some friends but as she had been so ill she asked if I could rustle something up, so I did!  They are not a couple who really 'do' cutie cards but they love their garden and flowers so with this in mind this is what I came up with.  Plain white cs border punch system which I then backed wtih some deep red cs, which I also used for the outer scalloped circle, then white cs for the inner circle which I embossed with a papermania folder, the flowers and wire and bead decoration were all bits that I bought at Exeter recently and finished it off with some peeloff sentiments, am pleased with the finished result and MIL is really pleased with it.



I would like to enter this into the following challenges:

Sweet Stampin Challenge #46 ~ Punch It Out
