I am the sort of person who expresses their love through gifts, hand-written letters and through homemade cards.
So, of course, i jumped on the chance to send steve's newly engaged brother an engagement card.
I simply got a piece of card left over from my wedding thank you cards, sent off a picture of the happy couple to Jessops to get printed (40p - thank you very much!) and used this as the background for the card.
I love that they haven't seen this picture before, it was one of the candid shots from a friend at our wedding.
Then, my favourite bit - i cut out two simple hearts from felt and hand stitched them onto the photograph before securing it to the card-stock. This project was unbelievably simple. It took no more than ten minutes to finish.
I have recently fallen in love with felt.. its the most versatile material ever and i love the contrast of textures. I may actually be addicted.
