Happy Anniversary

Hi bloggers!  I selected a piece of Arctic Blue card to use as the background.  I cut the Checkered Heart die out of white vellum and then extended the die cut to make it longer.  I added a piece of sticky adhesive sheet to the blue background, then added the extended die cut background to it.  I used Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz on the remaining exposed sticky areas.  Next I used the middle die from the Loving Hearts Frame and cut it in both white and black.  I used the black die cut as a shadow behind the white die cut.  I glued it to the centre of the background in a diamond orientation.  I cut the Wedding Couple in white and added it inside the centre frame.  I cut the Happy Anniversary in blue and black card.  I shadowed the sentiment then glued it to the bottom of the card.  I added two small side borders of a piece of blue card on top of a slightly wider piece of white card.  I added each one to the sides of the card with mounting foam.  The card was completed with white and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7"  x  8 1/2"  in size.  All for now, Sue x

  15. Hi Sue. What a lovely understated background. I wouldn't necessarily think of using vellum in this way but I think the results are really nice.
