I made this clean and simple anniversary card for the Color Challenge over at Split Coast this week - Hostess Vicki asked us to use silver, gold and white.
Once I decided on the design - it was a snap to create - I used a
Fleur de Lis square Nestability for the silver piece, a stem from
the Foliage set by Spellbinders and I cut the sentiment with a
Labels 14 Nestability. Then I just layered them all to the card base with foam tape for dimension and popped three clear heart gems onto the sentiment from the
Cameo to Go set by Waltzingmouse.. VERY quick - VERY easy!
It was
SO quick and easy that I decided to make another one since I had all the dies out on my worktable. This time I used patterned papers instead of gold and silver and added just 1 red heart gem to the sentiment.
I sent this to my stamping buddy -
Anne Harada - as she and hubby celebrated their 24th anniversary yesterday - yes - they were married on New Year's Eve!. Using patterned paper instead of gold and silver makes this Anniversary card a little more casual.
I'm entering my gold/silver card in this weeks
