CR84FN21 Challenge

I really should be doing some school work, but couldn't resist playing with CR84FN21's challenge. 

The moment I saw the inspiration photo, I couldn't stop think of all the combinations and layers I would use.  I knew I wanted to make a wedding card, and I knew I wanted to play with my new Cuttlebug---YES, I finally got one!!!!  Any way, here's what I came up with:
 I found some gorgeous appliques used for dresses at a thrift shop--a whole bag full of it for less than $3.  I knew when I saw it that I could incorporate some of it into wedding cards.
 You can see how that applique adds a bit of sparkle with the pearls and sequins.  The flower adds lots of texture too!

Okay--enough prograstinating . . . I really got to do my school work (arghhh).
Have a great Sunday!!
Thanks 4 your time!
