Well good day!! I wanted to share a quick and simple card I made for a couple I know that are getting married. I scrounged through my studio for these shoes that I salvaged from a card found in a clearance bin. They looked so interesting to me and I knew that for the future I could reproduce the womans shoe easily – you know how I love shoes!! I picked a Quietfire Designs sentiment to go along with the shoes. Even though I was going for a tone on tone look I stamped out the Real Love Stories sentiment in black and embossed it so the shiny text would match the mans shoe.
Rather than put the shoes directly on the card I created a series of panels using Spellbinders Long Classic Rectangles LG, Spellbinders Mega Ovals LG and Spellbinders Mega Classic Scalloped Ovals LG. For that lovely ribbon treatment, you caught me, I was experimenting. I fashioned the rose from ribbon then ruched the ribbon across the card myself by running a gathering stitch. Hopefully when things calm down here I can show these in a Becca Bit.

I only have one question, Becca. I absolutely love all of your layering on your cards. That’s what makes them so special and lovely along with the beautiful bows. My question is – what type of envelope do you use? I know you have some amazing, creative answer for this, do tell please. Maybe you can share as a Becca Bit one of these times.
Thanks.
Marcie

That is absolutely gorgeous. I’d love to know how to make the shoes if at all possible.
I always enjoy looking at the beautiful cards you create especially the ones with scriptures included. But that wedding card is amazing! So simple yet so elegant,I think it is my favorite so far
soo cool
Please do a tutorial on these shoes!!!! They’re adorable !
Very cool.. love the shoes!! Love the ribbon roses too, takes me back to my elly sinkciwiecz classes many years ago!
Wow! This tugs at my heart strings. Not a traditionalist myself, this to me is the perfect Wedding card. Thanks for sharing Becca.
I know how to ruche, but man that rose is really something. Hope you’ll be sharing that as well! Hmmm. And templates for the shoes when you get a chance?
Loving your Becca Bits. I bought a bunch of MS corner punches on sale and have been trying out right-angle punching. So far I do not meet up properly when I get around to the other side, but I will perservere!
how beautiful!!!
Wow! This is definitely NOT a quick and Simple card! Your ideas are so amazing. I love the shoes. You said you knew you could duplicate the ladies shoe, how about the man’s shoe? Could you do a tutorial on the shoes sometime, as well as that gorgeous flower? I am truly amazed at what you can come up with. Thank you so much for sharing.
Beautiful Becca!
Love the ribbon, the shoes, everything!

Gorgeous Becca! Such fabulous details and loving those shoes!

Becca – can’t believe it, but here in little ol’ England, I have the exact same pair of shoes on a Cambridge blue card headed for a lovely young couple who are being married in a Cambridge College Chapel next week!
Like you, I’ve hung onto the card for a couple of years as I knew I could make a similar shoe!
But your ivory ribbon treatment is stunning. What am I saying…? The whole card is stunning :o)
Hugs
