Suzanne & Hari....

When we went to Seattle a couple of years ago, we stayed with some very good friends whom my hubby has known since Medical School days. Their son Hari got married to his fiancée Suzanne last month, and sadly as we were not able to attend as hubby was in India, our friends Mary & Imroz took it out for us.
 The card base is an 8" square gatefold made with two 8" square cards adhered together. I embossed snow white Centura Pearl cardstock, matted it onto blue pearlised card and adhered it flat to the front of the card. I cut a shaped panel from patterned paper (downloaded from Pink Petticoat, and printed onto pearlised paper) and adhered to a blue shadow. The panel was then adhered to the front of the card on one side only. A filigree heart was cut from Centura Pearl with a blue blackout. It was adhered to the shaped panel with foam pads. The bride and groom initials, and some die-cut flourishes adorn the front of the card, along with a blue rose and sheer bow.... 
 ...here you can see the decorated flap underneath the panel.....

....and also inside the card, along with a smaller card adhered to the inside back of the card, which carries a computer generated sentiment....
 ....and inside the card I stamped a quote from Audrey Hepburn using a Sheena Douglass stamp...
...and because the card was bulky I made a pizza-style box to keep it safe.
The other box is for another wedding card that I made which I will show you next time.
