Shabby Wedding Chicks

Good morning! I've got a shabby, colorful wedding card to share today. I used the sketch from SCS and a fun mix of DP. The image is colored with pencils and accented with a black gel pen and glitter the edges of the papers are inked. I used the PTI doily edger die and the largest of the MFT mini rolled rose dies. (I will have to post pictures of all the sizes, there are 4; the little ones are so dainty and cute.)

Image: Stampendous Calendar Chicks "Wedding Chicks"
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, PTI Chai and Chamomile, Sakura Black Gel Pen
Paper: SU! Naturals White, PTI Fine Linen (card base) and True Black, Fancy Pants Designs DP
Embellies: Doodlebug Glitter, Swarovski Flatback Crystal (AB), Black Grosgrain Ribbon (my stash)
Extras: Prismas/Goo Gone, PTI Doily Edger Die, MFT Mini Rolled Rose Die, Spellbinder's Nestabilities, The Paper Studio Sticky Doos

I thought this was a fun sketch; while making this card I thought of a few variations so I might have to try them out too....

Today my oldest turns 13! I may compile a few pictures to post later....

Thanks for stopping by; have a great day!

Your card is really adorable. I love the image and the paper with the text on it is absolutely lovely. After seeing this card I now have decided that I "need" those mini rolled rose dies. :) So I just ordered them. ;)
