Isn't she BEAUTIFUL!

My sister and new hubby wubby! Aren't they distgustingly cute...LOL....I did her thank you cards for her wedding. These pictures really don't do them justice but then most pics don't cards justice.

There were 150 + self addressed envelopes. I used the Wedding set from SU for the side image. Stamping 150 of them in one day was hard on the hands...the stamp itself was on a large block so my hand kept cramping...lol...oh well. Scoring the top for added interest was easy  but the inside where I printed her special message was more time consuming because of the kraft photo corners. I had to get hubby to help me with them. Yeah I go his butt working for me this time and boy did he have a hard time...LOL...it's no so simple HUH Dear! I did use glitter to make the image pop a bit which took just as long to do because of the drying time but it looked nice and elegant enough for people to keep it as a memorable piece. But simple enough that if they chose to keep the picture - which pops out BTW, instead of keeping the whole card they can just toss it. Like most of us, we will keep the whole thing but there are those that just want the pic and stick it n the album.

My sister did like them and thats all that mattered anyways right....?

On the front of the cards is a Butterfly. The bottom image if you click on it will show you a close up of it because it is white on white it's difficult to see it in the photo.

It's nice and sunny today...even though it's a bit nippy I'm going to take advantage of the daylight for so stamping...see you all later :)
