Wedding Card

I was asked by a friend to make a wedding card for her son and bride-to-be. No problem I thought, until she told me what she wanted on it!!

They're both in the navy and are based in Cornwall so she wanted something with those elements on, oh and they also have a little brown cocker spaniel called Jasper (could I include him as well!!!). Didn't want much did she? Lol

So I got my thinking cap on because I wanted the card to look classy and not tacky and overdone. I found a perfect gold coloured navy insignia on the web and then a map of Cornwall which I watermarked and changed the colour of and put behind the text, and as for the dog ... I put him on the back of the card in a corner!!!

She absolutely loved it and so did the Bride and Groom.
Congratulations David and Kelly and I wish you both all the luck and happiness in the world xx
