Inspire. Create. Challenges #27 Celebration Theme

Hello!
Today is the day for a new challenge with Inspire. Create and the theme this fortnight is "celebration" which is just perfect as last weekend we went to our very good friends daughters wedding!
 So, of course I made a card but I also decided to make a personalised Wedding frame too.
Their theme was Nautical and this is both the card and frame together to start...
 Let's see the card a bit closer first of all. I started by stamping {on thick white card} the anchor image from Guy Greetings (retired) and some little hearts (Jar of Love), stars and tiny spots (Hearts come Home) to fill in the gaps before die cutting the "Mr & Mrs" letters from the panel.
 I used the large heart from Little Twinkle for the background on a navy card panel and heat embossed it in clear for a subtle shine.
 Then I added the letters using foam strips which made it super quick to do. Add some navy gingham ribbon, decorate the box and inside panel and that's the card done!
 So then I started the frame!
I heat embossed the cake from Cake Soiree in gold and coloured with a blender pen and ink pads to match the colour scheme. More anchors from Guy Greetings and of course the die cut "love" from the Sunshine Wishes dies over some stars from the Little Twinkle set. Finally the "Mr & Mrs" stamped image is a retired set that I just couldn't part with ;-)
I added the couples name and wedding date at the top of the frame surrounded by hearts from the Little Elephant stamp set. All finished with a few clear sequins and some more ribbon.
And once more together for you :-)
So, that's all from me today, I hope you enjoyed seeing today's creations! If you have any questions then please do ask in the comments :-)
