Here's my card for today's Clean & Simple Challenge. Today's challenge was a theme challenge and the theme was to create a wedding card.

When I need to make a wedding card, I find myself usually using white card stock and my Cuttlebug. I guess because I feel that the Cuttlebug can create elegant cards so quickly and easily.

I used my Cuttlebug and Cuttlebug embossing folder called 'Just My Type' to create the embossed portion of my card. This particular folder is a set of five small strips, so all I did was run the small strip folder through my Cuttlebug and then I turned the folder around and I embossed again just above my previous row.

Right above my embossed area I used my Scor-pal to create three straight score lines. My ribbon is over top of these lines, but I just wanted to mention it in case you couldn't see it.

I didn't have oval punches large enough, so I used my Cricut to cut out the two ovals at the top of my card. Then I stamped my sentiment and I stamped and cut out the small flowers. The flowers are from SU's Fairy-tale Wedding stamp set. I stamped them using Silver Encore ink.

Finally, I added some liquid pearls (white opal) to the center of each flower. My silver and white ribbon is from Offray. Thanks for looking!
