Looking Into The Future

This is for my cousin's fiance who's bridal shower is coming up really soon.  I wanted it to have that "vintage" look yet kinda romantic. I still need to find some kind of sentiment that talks about making the preparations for the wedding... Also, this was my first time making a "Gate Fold" card. Plus, the flowers in the bouquet below the bride, they are handmade.  Those took some time but I am very pleased how they turned out.  I think it all turned out really pretty.  I hope she likes it and appreciates handmade cards.


I used:
Gypsy Font Cartridge
Forever Young Cartridge
Paper Doll Dress Up Cartridge
Potpourri Basket Cartridge
Gray Card stock
DCWV the glitter card stock stack
K & Company Life's Journey Paper
Stickles
Red Ink
Mustard Glimmer Mist
Recollections Pearl Stickers
Ribbon, lace, and rose button are from my stash

The inside after it is opened.  The sentiment/poem with signature will be on each side.
