Lavender & Cream Wedding card

Hello everyone, I hope you all had a good day. tomight I am sharing with you a wedding card I made for the daughter of a friend of mine. Of course I used her wedding colors. I got the layout idea of the card from Kristina Werner. She has an amazing blog and is very talented.

My friend has another daughter getting married soon also, so I will be making her a card as well. I will post pics and share when I get it finished.  Well, on to my creation!

Stamp sets are from Stampin Up (it's old) and TPC Studios

inks are from a Zig writer, Bazzinks, and Colorbox.

I also used some glitter chalks from Pebbles Inc. (it doesn't show up in the pics very well)

I used the circle cutter from Creative Memories

I made the banner by hand

Edge Punch is Martha Stewart

Ribbon is from JoAnn's

Well, I have had a busy day getting these cards done for my card swap group which meets tomorrow night.  We didn't really have a theme this month, it was whatever we wanted to make.  I had a hard time deciding what to do so I checked out some challenge blogs to give me a direction to go and this is what I made:

I used K & Company patterned paper (that I bought a year and a half ago)

Stamps are from My Pink Stamper and Stampin Up

Ink is from Momento-Summer Sky

I used a Stampin Up punch (that I just bought and wanted to use it for the first time)

Pebbles Inc. glitter chalk was used for shading

The ribbon is from my stash

The challenges I am entering are:

Pause Dream Enjoy Challenges

Paper Playtime Challenges

Heartfelt Thanks

How is everyone this morning?  I wanted to do a quick post before we have to head out for swim lessons. 
This is a card I made for my card swap group for the month of April.  I know it's June.  We actually haven't swapped cards in a couple of months because of different things happening with all of us.  But I am caught up now, so for our June swap I will have the cards for April, May and June. 
The theme for April was just to use spring colors.  Well, I think of pastels during that time of year.  I ended up making it a thank you card, and I really like how it turned out.  So here it is:

I made my card on my gypsy with the Mini-Monograms cart.

The striped paper is from Breezy Design

Stamp set is from My Cute Stamps

"Heartfelt Thanks" stamp is MPS stamps-Simply Sweet Occasions

I stamped the images on DCWV pastel stack

Colorbox ink was used for stamping and edging

I shaded a little bit on my images with Pearlescent chalk from Pebbles Inc. (it doesn't really show in the picture but they really shimmer in the light.)
