Simple yet elegant

Good morning, just thought I would do a quick post before heading off to work.  I had a request from a co-working for an engagement card.  Not knowing the age group of this couple I decided to do something elegant rather than cutsie.

I used some cream linen cardstock, metallic paper, spellbinder die - royal love, silk ribbon, pearls and this is what I did:




 Sentiment is from PTI - propose a toast, stamped using rich cocoa memento ink.

Okay, I'm off to work.  Have a wonderful day, and thanks for the visit today.

Back soon, next card is a Power poppy image...  can't wait to show you.

You can't go wrong with elegance like this! What a beautiful die, and just so lovely in the neutral colors. Now I feel like going die shopping. Oh, stop me, please! I can't wait to see your Power Poppy card!

Romantic! Oh I like that lacey heart and the flourishes, beautiful die cut. Might be a simple elegance as you said but it packs a punch. Beautiful and romantic.
