Wedding Trio

A work colleague of C's asked for two wedding cards for her daughter's wedding. I like people who just say "I want a wedding card" and don't say it has to have yellow polka dots and refer to Mauritius because that's where the couple met, or whatever. On the whole, I like making cards for my pleasure and then selling them if anyone wants one.
I'm giving C three cards to take in tomorrow: the one with the embossed acetate on front was made quite a while back, and because the bow made it too big to put in a clear envelope, the image was a bit dirty and I had to re-stamp it. The floral punched card is a re-make of one I made last year for my niece's First Communion.
And for the third one I used Elisa's most recent release available from Mami Doodles. Alas, as all three are non-standard sizes I spent the afternoon making envelopes and a box for the punched one...

They're all three beautiful. I'm with you when it comes to making cards. I'd much rather not have to fit someone else's parameters because you really don't have personal knowledge of the meaning of things. Unlike our teapot challenges where you can pretty much go in any direction!

Gorgeous trio! Of course I have to love the third one, but the center one is my favourite, I hope the couple in question keep it and frame it.
