Golden Anniversary


This week I worked on an anniversary card for my sister and brother-in-law who will be celebrating their golden wedding anniversary in mid July. I chose a stamp from the Gina K. Designs Just a Little Stamp set and I embossed it in Gina K. Designs Fine Detail Gold powder. I also die cut the sentiment from Tonic Studios in white and then added clear embossing ink all over it and then added some of the same gold embossing powder and heat set that so that it would match the gold of the floral design. Off to the left I added a little gold washi tape from Altenew and then placed it onto a gold metallic background before adding it to the white card base. The focal panel was die cut with a Makers Movement stitched rectangle die. I struggled a bit with this design but in the end I was very pleased with it and I hope the happy couple will love it too.

Thanks so much for the visits and I love reading your comments. If you want to get my posts by email you will have to sign up for them in the newly added Follow It gadget at the right top side of my blog.

Until next time take care and God bless, Verna
