Even though this card is designed to celebrate a wedding, it could easily be used for any holiday or special occasion with a few simple changes. Instead of using the romantic cameo shown here, accent the center of the card with an embellishment more appropriate for the occasion you’re celebrating. Try other chipboard shapes, altered chipboard embellishments or even buttons. I’m sure you will come up with so many fun ways to use this card. If white is not the color choice for you, you can easily tint the seam binding and white organza rose trim using Maya Mist or another spray ink. Tinting or dyeing your trims allows you to color coordinate them for any of your projects.
