Embossed Background Wedding Card and Tag

Embossed Background Wedding Card and Tag

Made this card and little tag for my cousin sister who is having her dinner reception for Malaysia relatives and friends tomorrow. She is married to Singaporean and had their church wedding and luncheon reception in Singapore last week. The card will be passed to her while the little tag will be inserted into the money angpau to indicate the angpau is from who.

I started off with arranging the heart images and 'love' wordings onto the acrylic block. Then, they are stamped onto watercolor paper and embossed using gold embossing powder. The same process is repeated with white embossing powder for the tag. Colors (inspiration from the wedding card invitation) are added to the embossed background.

Embossed Background Wedding Card

For the card, the sentiment is stamped onto an orange card stock and embossed using gold embossing powder. The gold embossed background is trimmed accordingly to fit the bottom and upper of the sentiment. They are layered onto the orange sentiment card stock using foam tape. Then, the whole panel is attached onto a yellow card base.

Embossed Background Wedding Tag

While for the tag, the sentiment is stamped onto a pink parchment stitched tag die cut using gold ink. The white embossed background is first die cut with stitched tag dies. Then, it is trimmed accordingly to fit the bottom and upper of the sentiment and layered onto the pink parchment stitched tag. Another white stitched tag is attached to the back of the pink parchment stitched tag for message writing.

For finishing touch, I apply a layer of shimmer to both of the backgrounds to make them shine; after all, it is a wedding wishes card!
