Bookatrix ...

.... wedding card. The bottom layer is the silver with gold foiling and on the one I have finished the words have gone on both sides. The next layer is MCS invertage/pyramage of the wedding rings, embellished with a few pearls. The top layer is parchment embossed and pricked and layered onto silk gold card, with a peel-off border amd organza ribbon. The front and back of the card is gunmetal silk and on the front I have put a bride and groom, some flowers and a feather and a sentiment. Finally the completed bookatrix. Any comments would be gratefully received. Thanks for looking.
