Felt Inspired Wedding...

You were born together, and together you shall be for evermore....but let there be spaces in your togetherness. And let the winds of the heavens dance between you. -Khalil Gibran
I saw a challenge recently that looked fun, it picks stores from Etsy and asks you to be inspired by the items for sale...so fun! So this week on Etsy Inspired they asked us to create something inspired by Cose Dolce...well it wasn't very difficult...WOW the fun felt artwork on this site is ALL amazing!!! I chose THIS felt bowl and went with the clean simple lines, the beads (I used pearls) and the color scheme (for the most part.)

I needed a wedding card for some friends and I knew they would LOVE the red/black/cream. I didn't have any nice Red roses, so I took one of my pink Zva Roses and colored it a deep red with a Copic Marker, then layered it on a grey and a black Prima flower...then I added stickles to the rose because...well...because I Love stickles! :)

Supplies:
Stamps: Fairy Tales (Verve)
Paper: Cappella (Basic Grey,) Black, Ruby Red (SU)
Ink: Basic Gray (SU)
Misc: Zva Pearl Swirl, Zva Rose, Prima Flowers, Stickles
