 OK, let me just say right up front that I KNOW I'm going pretty ridiculous here! I could never figure out how one could manage it, but that all changes today - I'm combining FOUR challenges here! They are Stamp Ink Paper #96's wedding theme, Try Stampin' on Tuesday #319's round card challenge, SU Only #173's feminine theme, and Retro Rubber #61's additional twist of buttons! Whew! The first thing I did was visit the RoR (Room of Retirement!) for a likely "wedding" theme stamp. I was surprised at how many I was able to pull. In the end though, I just had to go with Beautiful Ride, from last year's Occasions (2016). I was so sorry that this set didn't make it to the "Big Book!" I went with an oval shape to better accommodate the VW, and, this shape also fits in a standard envelope - score! I brought on the Blushing Bride, of course, and had fun turning it into an easel, too. I think this turned out so well! Beautiful Ride Stamp Set (retired-2016); Perfectly Artistic DSP (retired); Blushing Bride & Whisper White CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Basic Black, Blushing Bride, Calypso Coral, Delightful Dijon, Dapper Denim, Soft Sky, Soft Suede & Blush Blossom (retired) Markers; Ovals Collection Framelits (retired); Occasions Piercing Template (retired); Retired Subtles Buttons; White Baker's Twine; #SIP96; #TSOT319; #SUO173; #RR61.

Love, love this LOVE BUG!! sweet as can be in that soft pink, and what a fabulous idea to make it an easel card with those sweet button stoppers, this way the recipients can display it every day. 5/1/2017 06:10:26 am
Heather, this card is over the top fantastic! Easel folds are perfect for special occasions. Your buttons are great as the "stopper". I know your young couple will love this card. Thank you for playing along with us at Retro Rubber. I love seeing your cards in our gallery and hope you will join us again soon. 5/1/2017 08:25:15 am

What a great easel card! I'd never have thought of going for that VW for a wedding theme. Like you, I can never get my head around a good card that fits more than a couple of challenges - so kudos for making sense out of four! And of course, the only pink to go for in this circumstance is Blushing Bride. Thanks for joining us again at Retro Rubber.
