OWH Wedding

This week's OWH Sunday Sketch was perfect for a wedding card I had to make.  The theme is rustic vintage I believe (or rustic elegance one or the other)  Anyway, I helped the bride to be design the invites  - really just supplied some ideas and she took off running.  The invites are gorgeous and I wanted to make a card for the wedding in a similar vein

 I used the same basic colors of the invite (Early Espresso and Fine Linen) as well as the same texture / impression plates (Distressed and Wood Grain).  I dyed some white satin ribbon with Early Espresso re-inker to get the custom ribbon and used linen thread and a vintage wood button to finish off the look.
The sentiments are from Big & Bold Wishes

Thanks for stopping!
