Red & Gold Wedding Card

I was commissioned to make this large multi-paged Wedding card for some friends who are going to their relative's Wedding OS.  The colour scheme was Red and Gold.  The Bride is Indian and the Groom African.

Some progress and compositional photos.  

I hand-coloured the white roses ribbon using Copic Markers.  

By using white-based flowers, you can colour them to suit any colour theme.

Two of my favourite love sentiments.

Love Celebr8 products!  Their cardstock & chipboard embellishments are some of 

my favourites to use in my projects.

Various views of the front of the card.

Close-up details on the front of the card.  

I used a range of red and white paper, resin and material flowers.

The first inside pages, with one of the love sentiments, featured.

Foiled rice paper with a floral theme was used to diffuse the dimpled gold foiled paper.

The layered gold, white and red cake is featured centrally on the second inner page.

The inner pages of the card feature a large love sentiment by Carina Gardner, Echo Park Paper Co.

One of the thickest and heaviest cards I have ever made. 
It was placed in a cardboard box to protect the flowers and layers.
