40th Anniversary Card

Hi Fellow Crafters. It was my Ruby Wedding Anniversary a few weeks ago so I thought I would make a card for my wife. It took me a few days to complete it but I think the finished result was worth it. My wife was really pleased with it and said that it is one of the best cards I have made.

     C5 Scalloped Edge Ivory 270gsm card - Range (Craft UK Limited).

     Mat & Layered frames, 250gsm Card - Ross Papercraft Show.
     Lace trim - Range.
     Rose - Boyes store.
     Love Brad - Art Accentz, bought cheap set at local store
     Pearls - Bling Bling C301IV, Boyes
Die Cuts:
     Wife Tag - Lea'bilities Art. nr. 45.0362 Daisy Frame die set.
     Heart - Marianne Creatables, LR0159 die set.
     Happy - Cherry Lynn Designs B243
     Anniversary - Cherry Lynn Designs B226
     Lattice - Spellbinders Shapeabilities Fancy Lattice S5-152
     Small Flowers (outer) Nellie Snellen Floral Punch FLP 014, also embosses.

     Butterfly - Marianne Creatables, LR0261 die set.

The 'for my Wife' and '40 Years' text were printed before die cutting.

    1. Hi Carole. Thank You for your kind comments. Angela did like the card. She knows how much work and thought I put into it. We had a lovely day together and went out for a meal. I did enjoy making the card and look forward in the future to making many more, when time permits. Regards John x
