I had a gold glitter 5 x 7 card base that was almost too sparkly (if that's possible) so I covered it with layers and a vase of my favorite Elizabeth Craft four petal flowers. Now I think the fine sparkly border adds just enough glitz to make a pretty wedding card. The flowers and leaves are cut from Els iridescent shimmer sheets. They are much prettier in real life.

WOW, SO beautiful!!! I too am a big lover of things that sparkle and shimmer, but it has to be balanced, you are right. I love the white blossoms, they are so elegant, especially against all of the gold. And that intricate vase is wonderful!!! This card is gorgeous here, I cannot imagine its beauty in person--I am sure this will be so appreciated and loved by the happy couple. I am so impressed!!!
