It's time again for another fun blog hop at Craft-Dee BowZ!

To be eligible for the Craft-Dee BowZ  Blog Hop prize, a 25 yard spool of ribbon, you must leave a comment on each of the blogs listed below. But our team is small, so it won't take long and you'll love the inspiration they share with you along the way!

Here's my wedding themed inspiration!

"a beautiful forever"

I love how this non-traditional looking wedding card turned out! 
The newspaper print patterned paper is from an old collection in my stash.  Not much left of it and I wish I had more.  It was perfect for the background mat on this wedding card.

When I think of love, the color red always comes to mind.  Maybe it's because hearts are red?  Not sure why, but I decided to use it as my accent color along with ivory, black and a touch of silver.  I used lots of elegant die-cuts to embellish my card.  The sentiment stamp is from a new collection that I recently purchased from Verve Stamps.

The lovely silver shimmer bow was so easy to make using my Craft-Dee BowZ tool.  I keep it nearby at all time when crafting.  You can own one too.  Visit the Craft-Dee BowZ Blog and buy one now.  It will make you a happy bow-making crafter!

 I hope my card has inspired you.

Thanks for stopping by to share my blog hop inspiration.
Tracey is waiting for you at the next stop!
