A Bridal Nacho Card

Happy Tuesday and get ready for another Nacho Average Color Challenge!  Here it is:


I decided to take the challenge literally and make a card featuring a bride, here it is:


I don't know anyone that's getting married in the near future but maybe it can also work as an anniversary card?  I do have some friends whose anniversary is on Valentine's Day so maybe I should send this to them!

I added a layer of Sahara Sand stamped with the long-retired (but still much loved in my house) Filigree background stamp and clear embossed, and then stamped a few of the wedding bells down the side of the card base.  (I really only stamped the three that you can see, because why bother stamping a whole line if most of them are going to be covered up by another layer?)

So now it's your turn!  Check out what the other Nachos have done with this color combo and then give it a whirl yourself.  Have fun, get stampy!

Supplies, all SU!
Stamps:  Best of Brides & Babies, Filigree
Ink:  StazOn Black, Versamark, Smoky Slate, Blushing Bride, Strawberry Slush, Pistachio Pudding, Marina Mist, Chocolate Chip, Baked Brown Sugar (who knew it would take so many colors for an image that's mostly not colored in?!)
Paper:  Blushing Bride, Sahara Sand, Very Vanilla
Accessories:  Deco Labels Framelits, clear EP, Basic Black taffeta (retired), Dimensionals, small heart punch

Awww, I'm a sucker for anything with hearts, rose, silver and black for weddings. Very nice. I love the background especially.
