The Octopode Factory - Make A Card

A new challenge is starting today over at The Octopode Factory, The theme this time round is 'Make A Card'. You can create anything you like as long as it is a card. You do not have to use an Octopode image either but it's great when you do and your name will be entered into the prize draw twice if you do.
 Now if you know me you may have noticed, I do not do cards, Not a big fan of creating them unless it is for my better half or family. Fortunately my GF's aunt is getting married in a couple of weeks and she asked me if I could come up with something for her.
 This is what she got ;)
 I have used the Day Of The Dead bride and groom digi characters, printed them onto craft card and coloured them with copic's, they were fussy cut and clear embossed, I used some design papers from Authentique's Enchanted 6x6 inch pad.
they were all stuck down to a 6x6 card blank.

We would love to see you joining in over at The Octopode Factory you have 2 weeks to join in the fun xx

Thank you for stopping by, Id like to say thanks and welcome to my newest followers xx

I would like to enter this into the challenge over at Smudgy Antics
they are having a Fussy Cut challenge.
