Some Odd Girl Bride

I've been collecting Some Odd Girl images for several months now. Finally, I've created my first SOG card, and it couldn't be for a sweeter occassion: a bridal shower!




The shower is tonight at church and is extra special because both the bride & groom are church members and come from very involved families. A match truly made in heaven, PTL! The wedding colors are Black & White with a touch of Hot Pink! I just love to use the wedding colors in my gift wrap and cards, and had extra fun playing with it because our couple is a bit "modern" in their style (unusual, but perfectly fine in our church). The bonus is that this color scheme fits nicely with the Challenge at the Some Odd Girl Blog: white (or kraft) with two pops of color. So fun!




Our bride Sarah is a true beauty, with rich dark tresses and beautiful warm skin, so I did my best to color "Bride Mae" to look like her. (Feedback from my mom *without prompting* was, "Oh, it looks just like her!" Yes!) I paired her up with these gorgeous Echo Park papers from the "Be Mine" 12x12 collection. I kept the layout simple to let the color tell the story. The sentiment is computer generated (note to self: stock up on wedding & baby sentiments), and die cut with two little crystals for a touch of bling. What is hard to see in pictures but super yummy in person (IMHO) is the organza ribbon. I used a glossy cardstock base to give it a special feel.




Thanks for stopping by! I'll have another bridal shower card for you soon, since wedding bells are ringing again this year at the office. ((((HUGS))))
