Window Wedding Card — From Basic to Extra!

Hey Crafties!! How about a quick window wedding card today? Some pastels and some delicate vellum pair nicely with an embossed wedding dress.

But it’s the window that takes the card from basic to extra.

See below for how to quickly create this Window Wedding Card.

Supplies:

Blushing Bride 8-1/2″ X 11″ Card Stock

Very Vanilla 8-1/2″ X 11″ Card Stock

Vellum 8-1/2″ X 11″ Card Stock

Ruffled Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder

Versamark Pad

Blushing Bride Classic Stampin’ Pad

Wonderful Moments Photopolymer Stamp Set

Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder

Stitched Shapes Framelits Dies

Very Vanilla 5/8″ (1.6 Cm) Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon

Glue Dots

How-to create a Window Wedding Card:

1. Cut your cardstock.
   1. Pink 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ for cardbase. Scrap (1″ x 3/4″) for sentiment on front
   2. Very Vanilla 4″ x 5 1/4″ for the inside, 3 1/2″ x 2 1/2″ for the window frame
   3. Vellum 4″ x 5 1/4″ for the front
2. Fold your 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ pink cardstock in half.
3. STAMP!
   1. On the inside Vanilla piece, stamp the wedding dress with versamark and sprinkle with gold embossing powder. Heat until it melts.
   2. Using blushing bride ink, stamp the inside sentiment below the dress.
   3. On the small pink scrap, stamp “congratulations” with versamark ink and sprinkle with gold embossing powder. Heat until it melts.
4. To create the window:
   1. Place (but don’t adhere yet) your vellum AND the small vanilla piece towards the top top of the pink front (card open!). Using the 2nd largest Stitched Shapes Framelits, run these 3 layers through your machine to cut the windows.
   2. Take the small vanilla piece again and run it through your machine again with the largest Stitched Shapes Framelits. This creates the frame for the window.
5. Dry emboss your vellum.
   1. Adhere the ribbon around the front of the vellum.
   2. With your favorite adhesive, attach your Congratulations sentiment on top of the ribbon.
6. Adhere your pieces!
   1. Adhere the vanilla piece with the dress to the inside.
   2. Using glue dots, attach the embossed vellum to the front of the card. Be careful to line up the windows.
   3. Adhere the vanilla window frame over the vellum.
