25th Anniversary

Recently, our friends celebrated their 25th Anniversary...and we helped them celebrate :)

I made a card and decorated champagne glasses for the toast to the happy couple.

Background paper is Pow from American Crafts...I just love the shimmer of it.  Sentiment is computer generated, numbers are from SRM.

For the champagne glasses, the tag diecut is from Sizzix, number stickers are from SRM,  round stickers are from the $ store.  It's amazing what you can find at the $ store these days!

I'm playing along with Simon Says Stamp, for their anything but a card challenge.

Cuttlebug Challenge

Sunday already and the hibernation continues...at least the sun is shining letting me take pictures of my cards.
This card is for the Cuttlebug Challenges blog. The challenge is to create something with a basic white theme, Asian if possible. I didn't have anything Asian, so went with a wedding theme.

The bird is from Prima and the sentiment is from Melissa Frances. I used the Textile Texture
embossing folder on glossy cardstock.

Continuing on a variation of the wedding theme, I made this anniversary card. It's also repurposing as the heart was part of a project I did a few years ago. After having it sit in a box for so long, it was time to give it new life. The stamp is from Impression Obsession. The paper is leftover from earlier in the week.

Thanks so much for dropping by. Hope you're having a wonderful Sunday.

50th Anniversary Card

This is my take on Kazan's sketch 15 on 2 Sketches 4 You. It started out as a birthday card for a friend, but as I went along, I realized that it would be a perfect card for my in-laws 50th Anniversary coming up in a few weeks. Now it's not like me to be so ahead of the game, but this just felt so right! I don't think the shimmer shows on the photo, but the silver paper is just beautiful and the crystal swirls...well, I love them! We're planning on sending the card and flowers to them on the day and then we are taking them on a family trip to Mexico later in the spring. 50 years is a long time, I think it should be celebrated to the max!

Patterned paper is from Basic Grey, flower and crystal swirls are from Prima. Silver flower brad is from Imaginisce, glitter letter stickers are from Making Memories, scallop die cut is from QuicKuts and embossing folder is from Cuttlebug. The silver paper is from Prism (love it!)

Thanks to the team at 2s4U for another great inspirational sketch!
