Wedding - Bridal Shower

And finally, the card I made for the Bridal Shower.  This is another center step card, a type of pop-up card.

The main image was embossed in black, very dramatic!  And in keeping with the beachy wedding theme, I sponged the panels in turquoise ink and used masking technique to simulate billowy clouds.  I attached a piece of kraft cardstock to the bottom and heat embossed it using clear embossing powder to simulate sand and scattered the tiny flowers with pearl accents.

At the bridal shower, I won one of  the games we played and got these sparkly votive candles for being the first one to guess five correct answers.

Beach Wedding

The location:  Sam's Chowder House, Half Moon Bay, California

The flowers:  White Phalaenopsis, White Dendrubiums and Pink Freesias

The favors:  Votive Tea Candles with tiny seashells and a variety of natural seashells scattered on the tables.

Potted white phalaenopsis were used as centerpieces on tables.  Curly willows and raffias were added to the potted orchids for dimension and balance.  Tags with table numbers were tied to the raffia bow.

Tomorrow, the wedding invitations.
