Love Bubbles

My sister needed a quick wedding card the other day and once upon a time I had a couple extras on hand.  But not this time.  So I had to think of something quick. 
 
Looking through my Silhouette files I came across this card called Valentine Bubbles of Love.  It's pretty and it's different and therefore I thought, why not?  After cutting it out I realized rather quickly that to add any kind of sentiment - whether stamped or handwritten - would pretty much destroy the card.  There was nowhere to hide it.
 
Quickly I pulled out the different shades of velum in my stash that might work.  Nope.  You could still see through every one of them.  Next I thought about using a glittered cardstock, knowing that would look nice.  Then I remembered that I'm not always successful with getting the adhesive to adhere correctly with some of those papers.  Finally I settled on a regular piece of cardstock, and while my photograph doesn't give my card the full justice it deserves (it's dark and rainy outside) my card turned out pretty good.
