Whimsical Wednesday Guest Designer

Hello Everyone,
Happy Wednesday!!! I am so excited and thrilled to be a Guest Designer at Whimsical Wednesday  this week for their challenge "Fun with Folds".  I have loved participating in their weekly challenges. They are so much fun and very inspirational. I am honored to be joining this amazing Design Team this week!

I have decided to make a stair step wedding card for this project. With a few weddings coming up this summer, it was a perfect opportunity for me to make a few.


My card is 5 1/2 x 10 1/2. I scored it at 1 1/4, 2 1/2, 4 1/4, 6 and 8 1/4. Folded it accordion style and used a bone folder for crisp folds. I also cut a piece 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 to adhere to the last fold.  I cut the Bride & Groom at 3", the cake at 3 3/4, the happy couple at 1 1/2 and the circle at 5 1/2 all from the Simply Charmed cartridge. The Mr&Mrs cut at 2 1/2 and the rings cut at 1" were from the Sweethearts cartridge. I cut the celebrate at 1 1/4 from the Tie the Knot cartridge.

The first two steps on the card I embossed (white layer) with the divine swirls folder.  The gold paper was some I had on hand which was an embossed raised flower pattern, worked perfect for this card. The circle was cut out of paper I had on hand as well that was embossed with stars. I added a little tulle and bling flower for the Brides veil and some stickles to add some dimension.

I really like how this turned out and I hope you are inspired and decide to come join us in this FUN challenge at Whimsical Wednesday! Thanks again for having me:)

Have a great day!
Sherrie K
