Mr & Mrs Wedding card and Coordinating Gift Bag

As I mentioned earlier, my nephew is getting married this Saturday.  Last week I made a mini album for them using designer paper that was very close to what was on their wedding invitation.
Today I made a coordinating gift bag and wedding card- using some of the new clay on both items.

The Gift Bag:

The bag is a Kraft bag.  I put some of the designer paper at the bottom, then a strip of black card stock at the top end.  A piece of white taffeta ribbon was adhered to this black strip, and a bow adhered to it.

I embossed the bride image from the Best of Brides and Babies using silver embossing powder.  This piece of Whisper White was matted with Basic Black card stock, then Whisper White, and then the coordinating designer paper.
On either side I place a large white daisy.  In the center of the daisy I placed a 1 1/4" scallop circle.  With the scissors I snipped between every second scallop and then placed the finished scallop unside down on top of the tombo lid to make it look more like a flower.  The clay flower was coloured using a dauber and Pool Party ink and adhered to the black scallop flower with tombo glue.  The rest of the flower was completed and adhered to the bag using tombo glue.

The tag was made using the Labels framelits.

The Wedding Card:


This is the coordinating wedding card.  I use Basic Black card stock layered with Whisper White which has been embossed with the new Beautifully Baroque folder.
I then die cut 2 hearts using Whisper White card stock, and adhered them to a piece of coordinating designer paper.  At the top left corner are 3 clay flowers, with white leaves punched using the Bird Building punch
The sentiment is from the Label Love stamp set and was punched using the Artisan Label punch

I hope my nephew and his new wife will like everything that I have made.
