"Thank You" Card

This is my very second card. (I think I'll stop the count).

Last week, my husband and I had an intimate dinner with some family and friends, to celebrate our marriage. We are more "low-key" people, so we didn't want a big wedding. Because of a misunderstanding, we didn't get the room we booked. Everything else was a little hassle since then, until we sat down to eat. So I didn't have the chance to take some proper pictures of the decorations I made for my wedding table. 

After everything was over, I felt the urge to make a "Thank you" card for the guests. 

This is what I came up with! 

Materials I used:

- pink patterned card stock (The Old World Stack, DCWV, textured);

- dark red (burgundy) card stock;

- wired pink ribbon (Offray);

- two shades of pink narrow ribbon (American Crafts); 

- two music notes brads;

- pre-cut paper butterfly (K&Company);

- sheer paper;

I cut the pink patterned card stock in a card size that I desired.(I forgot to measure again!)

I wrapped a piece of wired pink ribbon around it (on the upper part). I cut a square off the ribbon and put a piece of the dark red card stock underneath, with the pre-cut butterfly glued on top. (in the image, the butterfly has a piece of sequin on the right...I found one of the floor, fallen from my clothes, and I didn't want to throw it away!)

I wrapped two pieces of narrow ribbon around the wired wide pink ribbon. I attached the music notes brads on them. 

With a piece of dark red card stock and sheer paper, I wrote my message. 

I hope you like this one, too!! 

Congratulations to the Parents-to-be!

This is my very first card. 

Not too long ago, I got a call from a dear friend of mine. "I'm pregnant!" she confessed. I was so happy for her! Of course, my joy was an enough excuse to make a card. 

For this card I used:

- a dark -red (burgundy) card stock 

- a pink shade flowery mat stack prints (sticker paper)

- a wavy dark pink ribbon, "American Crafts"

- a heart-shaped decorative stencil, "Crafts Etc."

- two pink buttons

- a sheer sheet of paper.

I cut the burgundy card stock in a rectangular with the dimensions that I desired (all right...I don't remember, I'll be better next time! :-) )

I cut the pink shade flowery mat stack print in a rectangular with the dimensions 6.1/2 '- 5.1/2 '. I sticked it on the lower side of the burgundy sheet (it's self adhesive).

I cut some wavy dark pink ribbon, glued it (with Glue Stick from The Paper Studio) on the upper line of the self adhesive print. 

I cut a round shape out of a sticker paper sheet (pattern with alternating dark and light pink rhombuses), then cut a square of it off, to give the general shape of a baby carriage. 

I used two light pink buttons for wheels. 

I used heart-shaped decorative stencil to cut a cute heart from the same paper with the background card stock and hang it on the ribbon.

I used a little piece of sheer paper to write my message for my friends. 

Please see the picture for reference. 

I hope you like this card!! 

I'd like some input on something: what kind of glue could I use so it's not so obvious on the back of the sheer (transparent) paper? Thank you!
