For the Bride and Groom....

Hi there. Please think of me as you're reading this cos I'm off to the hospital today to be sedated to have the feeding tube in my stomach changed. It's not really a big deal but sometimes I get a bit fed up of being prodded and poked, if you know what  I mean!?!
Anyways!! There's a new challenge today at Delightful Challenges and for this one, you're to use your punches and die cuts. Here's my card:
I've used the gorgeous Bride and Groom digital image from Digital Delights and coloured it with promarkers. The papers are all from the Papermania Confetti range with Bazzill Basics grey cardstock. And I've used a Craftwork Cards die cut sentiment, flowers from WOC and Hobbycraft, pearls from my stash and the heart that you can see poking out was die cut using a Nellie Snellen multi frame die with my cuttlebug. I hope you like it. You're probably going to be seeing a few more flowers on my cards cos I went a bit kerazy at Wild Orchid Crafts the other day and my big box of drool-worthy flowers arrived this morning!!
Also - must tell you about my bargain! I bought a set of 12 promarkers from Craft Superstore, which was quite a coo anyway cos I didn't think I'd be able to get any more promarkers without buying singles cos whenever I look lately I've got most of the colours that are in the sets but I haven't seen this one before (it's just called 'Set 2'). They were £16.99. Well, when they arrived, included in the price was a Hero Arts stamp set (the ones that retail for about a tenner!) Hop over to Craft Superstore and have a look, I was well impressed!
Enough rambling! I'm also entering my card into the following challenges:

Don't forget to join in with us at Delightful Challenges. I hope to see you there! Bye for now.......
