So, I am going to enter again having crafted this card with that statement in mind
I thought long and hard about the design, did I want the card to say 'On your Engagement' or could the design 'say' what I wanted it to? Should I layer the ring onto black? Should I keep to one piece of 'bling', needed for the solitaire diamond? Where should I place the ring?
In the end I went for this, a band of silver, with a simple contemporary sentiment, adapted from Friendly Phrases and a 'solitaire' with two small 'diamonds' to set it off. The ring looked best placed slightly to the right.
Did I do a better job this time? I think so!
I do very much like your first silver card but this one IS perfectly CAS!
ReplyDeleteI liked your Christmas card but I love this card, it's so what I would love to be able to do. However for some reason they rarely work out and never look as gorgeous as this one hugs Karen
ReplyDeleteCards 1 and 2 are lovely Louise, and very CAS
