I had a lovely day today, the school was closed due to the snow so Lily was home again (she was home yesterday with a cough) thankfully her cough is a bit better today so she wasn't so clingy and miserable! She was playing in her room for a while so I got a chance to play. I had an order for a wedding card for a friend and found this pattern in this months Parchment Craft Magazine, its really a valentine card but I thought it would be good for a wedding card too :o)
A wee closeup of the detail
It was lovely to be parching again, its been a while since I did any. The white parts are all embossed and to make sure the parchment doesn't buckle you have to mboss in layers starting with a large ball tool, I did 5 layers of ebbossing leaving the paper to "rest" between each layer, so it took quite a while!
