Wedding greeting card - some more suggestions

• Cut out a kind of champagne bucket from colored plasterboard, decorate it with a silver one Edding and stick it only with the edges (leave the top open!) On the greeting card for the wedding. Glue two lucky cents or cut-out motifs such as babies, a house, a car, a large bank note, etc. onto a narrow ribbon. ä. and put that in the champagne bucket. Let the end of the ribbon hang out of the champagne bucket so that you can pull on it.

• Cut a black cylinder out of plasterboard and glue it to the left of the front page of the wedding greeting card. Draw the shape of a wedding dress to the right of it and make the skirt quite frilly out of tulle. Glue it to the top and sides of the greeting card (some white ribbon holds it together like a belt). You can put a lucky penny, banknote, etc. under the skirt. ä. "hide".

• Get a photo of the bride and groom. Cut out the figures, complete them with your own cartoon drawings if necessary. Place the groom on the left of the greeting card for the wedding (stick it on) and draw a bird cage with bars (like for a parrot) around him with a fiber pen. Do the same with the photo of the bride, stick it on the right side and complete it with a music stand and baton as a conductor. Draw in a few notes with a black fiber pen.
