This is for the son and his new bride of a good friend. He and his bride had been engaged for a while. They recently got married at city hall in Manhattan because they researched their "lucky day", and quickly got married.
It was a small ceremony. They plan to have a big party when her parents can attend.
I had actually made the background a while ago -- just playing around and having fun. So I don't really remember exactly how I made it. But I think I used distress inks and a sun stencil. I think I may have spritzed water through the stencil -- I know it's on water color paper. And you can see a bunch of water splats. Whatever -- after that, I used a skyline stencil from The Crafter's Workshop (Urban Landscape) - which has 2 options -- the solid buildings and the lined buildings.
So after that was done, I set is aside for quite a while. Never sure what I should do with it. Until now. So I stenciled in some hearts, and black embossed the Congratulations. And done -- a different but very personal wedding card.
It is certainly not the usual wedding card. But it worked for them!
Thanks for taking a look. Hope you are all well and safe.
