3D Wedding Gazebo Card

Hi Everyone!  Finally back to some serious crafting after a break for kitchen remodels, friends visiting from the UK (who,we had a blast with, and are sad they are gone), visits to the emergency vets with my dog (fingers crossed on a second round of antibiotics) - life - PHEW!

My project for today is a 3d wedding card - well, it's not really a card but that is what I intend to use it for.  This file is from the Silhouette online store and is called "Lantern Wedding Couple.'  This card is for a couple of my husbands co-workers who got married in July and are having a celebration later this month.


The file comes in 5 pieces, which I cut from white card stock using my Cameo.  I ran all the pieces (except the 'couple') through my Sizzzix machine using a swirl embossing folder.  Here is a closer look at the embossed roof.

I decided to add a little colour with some vines (also a Silhouette file), and pink flowers (EK Success flower punch).  I fixed the vine in place with some glue dots and added a touch of pink stickles in the center of each flower.


I finished it off by generating a sentiment on my computer, and mounting it on dimensional pop-dots.


Sadly I won't be attending the celebration, but I really hope that they like it.

Thanks for stopping by.

  1. Your card/3d looks so lovely. Certainly the vines and flowers add the pop. Hope you do get to attend the celebration. Hope your dog is doing ok now. You have to share your kitchen photos too. TFS
