Embossed Background Wedding Card and Tag

Embossed Background Wedding Card and Tag
Made this card and little tag for my cousin sister who is having her dinner reception for Malaysia relatives and friends tomorrow. She is married to Singaporean and had their church wedding and luncheon reception in Singapore last week. The card will be passed to her while the little tag will be inserted into the money angpau to indicate the angpau is from who.

I started off with arranging the heart images and 'love' wordings onto the acrylic block. Then, they are stamped onto watercolor paper and embossed using gold embossing powder. The same process is repeated with white embossing powder for the tag. Colors (inspiration from the wedding card invitation) are added to the embossed background.
Embossed Background Wedding Card
For the card, the sentiment is stamped onto an orange card stock and embossed using gold embossing powder. The gold embossed background is trimmed accordingly to fit the bottom and upper of the sentiment. They are layered onto the orange sentiment card stock using foam tape. Then, the whole panel is attached onto a yellow card base.

Embossed Background Wedding Tag
While for the tag, the sentiment is stamped onto a pink parchment stitched tag die cut using gold ink. The white embossed background is first die cut with stitched tag dies. Then, it is trimmed accordingly to fit the bottom and upper of the sentiment and layered onto the pink parchment stitched tag. Another white stitched tag is attached to the back of the pink parchment stitched tag for message writing.

For finishing touch, I apply a layer of shimmer to both of the backgrounds to make them shine; after all, it is a wedding wishes card!

Monkey Thanks for Your Purchase
Made this card for another of my first time Copic markers buyers who uses Copic markers in her arts. From her blog, I know that she wants to be a successful zoologist. Well, that make me wonder why she is into art.....but I remind myself not to judge the book by its cover as you never know what talents do a person hold. Thus, maybe she is well talented in art as well.....
Close-up: Coconut tree with a monkey
I choose a coconut tree with a monkey image as my buyer ambition is to be a successful zoologist. I try to link something that is related to her so that she feel more personal when receiving the card. The image is stamped onto a white card stock and colored using Copic marker. Then, the sky and grassland is created using distress ink. Three (3) orange brads are attached onto the left side of the card as in sketch. It is then attached onto a red card base which already lined with colorful polka dots washi tape using pop dots.
Close-up: Speech bubble with sentiment
The sentiment is stamped onto a speech bubble and trimmed accordingly. It is attached above the monkey as if the monkey speaking it using partial pop dots and glue. The sentiment arrangement on the sketch make it perfect for such creation! Lastly, three (3) orange gems are added to the bottom of the sentiment.

Monkey Swinging By to Say.....Happy Birthday!
Made this card for my cousin-in-law whose birthday is in early August. She lives in Singapore which is neighbor to Malaysia. I have a strange idea that it is very easy to go to Singapore like just swing over to there. Thus, I have this card made with the funny sentiment!
Repeat Impressions - WHAT IF? Wednesday - Sketch Challenge J1013
I adopt the sketch from Repeat Impressions - WHAT IF? Wednesday - Sketch Challenge J1013 as shown above. The three (3) panels are perfect for the monkey swinging scene!
Close-up : The swinging scene!
Three (3) white panels are trimmed accordingly and stamped with the monkey whereby two (2) of the panels only reveal partial of the monkey and the final panel reveal the whole monkey - making the swinging scene! The monkey in the panels are colored using Copic markers. Some branches with leaves are added to the panels to make the swinging scene. The edges of the panels are then distressed with distress ink so that it look more like jungle. The panels are attached onto a pink card base as per sketch.
Close-up : Sentiment
The sentiment is stamped on a white scallop oval. A banana is added beside the sentiment using pop dots to create some dimension. The scallop oval is then attached onto the panels as in sketch.
Monkey Swinging By to Say.....Happy Birthday! - Inside
To complete the sentiment on the outside of the card, another sentiment is stamped inside the card to complete the intention on this card.
