Yesterday when putting away a few things I ran across this foiled paper I had done a few years ago and saw the wonderful shimmer and that it reflected in gold, silver and turquoise. I was then inspired to make a wedding card with it. I used the Bride & Groom die from Impression Obsession along with an Impression Obsession sentiment. The bridal couple was die cut from some silver glitter paper. I added some gems and as a result I am loving how it looks. So I guess just seeing a piece of paper can be a way to get one's mojo back.
There are no weddings in the future that I know of but if any should be happening I am now ready with a card.
I am entering this in the Power Poppy Creative Confetti Challenge-Celebrate Good Times.
Thanks for all the wonderful comments and I hope your day is a great one.
God bless,
Verna

That foiling is really unique - so pretty with the three tones. A beautiful wedding card!
Wow ...what a sparkly and stunning wedding card Verna and great that the fabulous foiled paper inspired your wonderful card x.
Lovely wedding card, I especially love that foil paper!
I see all those colors in the foil paper! How pretty! The die cut couple are beautiful with it in the silver glitter paper. Sometimes just getting started is all it takes, but an inspiration piece is a great help!
This card is so elegant, Verna! I love the sparkles!!! The paper sounds just heavenly to look at. I never did believe you lost your mojo :D
You've a great eye for design, Verna, to see this beautiful card from that piece of paper! It's really gorgeous and some couple will treasure it some day!! Hugs, Darnell

Not knowing when you would use it, you were smart with the colors. This could be for a wedding any time of year! I love the glitter paper!
This is a gorgeous wedding card!!Love the pretty gems.
This is so pretty! You picked up the turquoise in the foil beautifully with your greeting and gems, and the sparkly bride and groom is gorgeous! Great to have a wedding card in your stash for later use!
Great use of an old tidbit, beautiful colors!
So pretty! It's true that seeing a piece of paper, or a die cut can inspire a card!
Hi Verna, Sorry I haven't been by in a while. I promise to do better in 2020 LOL. Your wedding card is so lovely. I love it when you see something that sparks something in us to finish it, make something. It's amazing when the mojo comes back!! Looks like your mojo is back in the swing!!
What a very pretty card Verna, and it is certainly a good idea to be prepared for when you need one to celebrate someones happy day.. So many years have past since we all started stamping. It is certainly a hobby I have loved with a passion, and it certainly keeps my mind, arthritic hands and eyes in working condition LOL Keep on stamping my dear your creations are always a pleasure to look at. You know I always envied your wonderful ability to make such stunning scenic cards!
Gorgeous paper & card, Verna!
Beautiful wedding card Verna, gorgeous shimmer
Oh I love this! And how cool that you used a paper you've had laying around for a long time!
