Flashback Friday 11.0 - *First Wedding Card*

 

SCROLL DOWN TO THE END OF THE POST FOR THE FREEBIE

WOW! Cant believe I used to make so many flowers from scratch. I had some stamina back then! LOL

I am posting my first wedding card for the Flashback Friday Challenge. I was blog hoping and saw their challenge, still have 21 hours to enter.

ETA (after the first comment) I drew the flowers and the swirl freehand and cut em up. So all this is done from scratch.

All flowers are handmade and so are the flower centres. I had no punches, no embossing folders back then.

I remember this card being a total HIT, my aunt asked me to make one like this so she could frame it up! Hope you guys like it!

P.S: I am entering this in Inspire me Fridays, I hope some of you (who don't have punches or tools) will be inspired by this.
