50th Anniversary Card, SU Style

Hi All,

My mom asked me to whip up an anniversary card for a 50th anniversary party she was attending.  I immediately thought of my Bride and Groom Specialty papers from Stampin' Up! 

My card base is Whisper White, then a layer of Basic Gray.  I added a layer of Groom Specialty DSP (the black, swirly one), with the bottom edge punched with a Martha Stewart edge punch, and a strip of white underneath.  Across that, I added some White Satin ribbon, with some self-adhesive ribbon across that.  I also added 3 silver brads to the left side of the panel.

I decorated the inside with the Groom DSP, Whisper White, and some more self-adhesive ribbon to match.

For the main panel, I took some Bride Specialty DSP (the swirly white one) and stamped the flowers from Upsy Daisy in Basic Gray ink.  Then, I stamped the sentiment from Whimsical Words in Versamark and embossed with silver EP.  I outlined the words with a white gel pen because the paper was so busy, I needed them to stand out a bit more.

Hope you enjoyed, and thanks for stopping by!

Wedding or Anniversary Couple

Hi All,

I really wanted to ink up this set I got from The Greeting Farm called Cake Topper. It is a really cute set for weddings/anniversaries.

Firstly, I used a standard sized white card base, and embossed it with the diamonds Cuttlebug folder with my Big Shot. It is hard to see in this pic, but you can always click on the photo to enlarge it.

Then, I used Basic Black CS, Basic Gray CS, and Basic Gray Prints DSP with my Classic and Scallop Oval Nestabilities (with the Big Shot).

I stamped the images in Black Versafine and embossed them with clear EP. I then coloured them with Copic markers. I cut them out, and mounted them on foam squares.

The sentiment was stamped on white CS and punched out with my Small Oval Punch, and I put a tiny bit of Pacific Point in on the outside just to frame it.

The ribbon is the Gray Taffeta from SU.

Hope you like it, and thanks for stopping by!
