Hope this of use for someone, drawn completely by me and so free for all to use as you wish.
I backed the wedding dress with a slightly different coloured card to make the pattern stand out - this design is more for scrapbooking as I wouldn't advise taking the dress any smaller due to the small cuts needed for the pattern.
I hate wasted paper, so this is set up to cute several at a time. They are layered for a dimensional look. I used heavy cardstock for the dark background and light weight for the other layers. I used a zig 2 way glue stick to trace the top layer. It worked really nice. I don't know what you would have available. Layer one for the dark paper you cut only the red lines. Layer two was white, you cut red and orange lines. Layer three light green, you cut red, orange and yellow. Layer four call all lines. I am really please how this cuts and layers together. Hope you like it too.
Here is my attempt, made from the only image I have with a profile. My daughters wedding. Will have another go if I have time before I go away/

Hi All,I was asked how I made a Mr and Mrs wedding Horseshoe card a couple of years ago by a member so I thought I would upload the template for everyone and hopefully help the scrappers member as well,I had to dig it out from under loads of stuff in my folder as my computer is just a jumble at the moment.(nothing new there then!!) LOL. The templates are all to size to fit on an A4 card folded in half,the templates are in black and the mats are in red,I cannot find the bodice and the tux ,sorry, if I come across them I will upload them later, you will have to zoom out to see all, Stella x
This was very quickly and simply done in DM - sticking all the beads on and threading the ribbon took a bit longer though! Makes quite a nice topper for a wedding.
I have added my SVG file and as a novice with inkscape I would like to ask how to make my image look a little less faded! I have set the colour to black (and red) but it still looks very washed out - wondered if there is anything I should be doing?
Thanks to those of you who were kind enough to offer your thoughts on this one. The result is I have removed the front spindle and brought the other front one forward, refined some facial features. The idea is to use vellum or something similar behind the spindles as a veil, as in original card (see gallery). I have not yet tested the new version.
I have made it for myself (i'm a wedding photographer and making handmade gifts for my justmarrieds)
Hope you"ll find it useful
You can use it outstanding or with the card (on my second example card with those rings and letters wedding in russian)
I designed this a while ago for a friends wedding, but ended up doing a different version. Thought it might be usefull to some one for a wedding theme.
