Commissioned wedding card

Good Morning,

Hope  you are all enjoying father's day.  My mom has asked me to make a card for a friends wedding for the 29th June.  She really likes the LOTV horse and carriage image which I have as a stamp and as a pre-coloured topper.  Due to the detail on the front of the card she decided that the front of the card did not need a sentiment.

A4 Spellbinders embossing folder
Grand circle nestabilities

Cheery Lynn butterfly corner die.
