Happy Anniversary

Hi bloggers!  Back to Sky Blue and milk card like last week's Thanks card, as I really like this soft colour combo!  I started by cutting the top layer of the Florence die into a piece of milk card several times.  I did two on each side with a small gap in the centre.  I backed it in sky blue.  I used the Double Stitched Rectangles to add a thin frame with foam which I cut out of milk card.  For the focal element, I grabbed the Vanessa die and cut it out of Sky Blue card.  I added a backing cut out of milk card and added it to the centre of the frame.  I used the Double Stitched Ovals in both milk and sky blue to make a small multi layered frame for the centre.  I cut the Happy Anniversary sentiment in blue and added it on to a strip of vellum that I hand cut the two sides into tails.  I glued it across the top of the oval frame.  The card was completed with milk and Sky Blue mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7" x  8" in size.  All for now, Sue x

  2. Hi Sue. Thanks for this gorgeous delicate idea that could be used for most celebrations. Everything ties in so well and it makes you want to take in every tiny detail. I know that if I'd been sent anything this stunning I'd mount it in a beautiful box frame for all to see. Whatever your plans hope you enjoy your day xxx

  29. Hi Sue. I can see why you like that colour combination, it is so soft and delicate. Love the background made using the Florence die and the way the little circles cry out for the addition of a pearl.
