Happy Anniversary

Today I am sharing a card I made for my Mum and Dad who celebrated their 66th Wedding Anniversary last week. Happy Anniversary! I love the example on page 119 of the Annual Catalogue which uses the Floral Essence stamp set but wanted to use the Tasteful Touches stamp set instead. I also didn’t have the stamp set they used to create the background so I embossed Whisper White card using the Old World Paper 3D Embossing Folder but before I placed my card inside, I inked one side of the folder with Crumb Cake ink. So now I have an embossed and coloured piece of Whisper White card, which looks really pretty. I attached the embossed card to scored and folded Rococo Rose card. I stamped the flower from the Tasteful Touches stamp set twice onto Whisper White card using Rococo Rose ink and cut them out. I cut Pretty Peacock card using one of the dies from the Forever Flourishing Dies. I attached the die behind one of the flowers and attached it to the embossed Whisper White card. I stamped “happy anniversary” from the Well Said stamp set onto Whisper White card using Pretty Peacock ink. I punched one end of the card using the Lovely Labels Pick a Punch and I attached a piece of Rococo Rose 1/2″ Scalloped Linen Ribbon behind the bottom edge of the label banner.
I attached the greeting banner to the embossed Whisper White card using dimensionals and partially covering the flower. I trimmed the right hand edge of the greeting banner to match the edge of the embossed Whisper White card. I attached the second flower to the card front using dimensionals so that it sits partially over the greeting banner.
To decorate the inside of the card I stamped another greeting from the Well Said stamp set using Pretty Peacock ink. I embossed a narrow strip of Whisper White card using the Old World Paper 3D Embossing Folder and Crumb Cake ink. The embossed panel is attached to the bottom of the stamped Whisper White card.
CASEing the catalogue makes it pretty easy to come up with a unique design. I don’t know about you but when I CASE something, my card never looks exactly like the one I am CASEing.
Bye for now,
Kris
