Diamond Wedding Anniversary

I was asked to make this Diamond Wedding anniversary card by a friend, it had to go to Canada so i tried to keep it as flat as possible. Its an 8x8ins card using Crafters Companion Centura Pearl card, i embossed it with Embossalicious Regency Frame folder. The hearts are from Nellie Snellen and the rest is from my stash.




The next one is along similar lines but was made for a friends Ruby Wedding Anniversary.



The next one was made for my sister and her husbands silver wedding Anniversary.




Thanks for looking and i hope they give you some inspiration

Chloe's creative cards Fabulous Dress stamp

I love this stamp and made my first of many cards i know i will be making with it. I also bought the new "Glam clutch bag stamp which is also so very versatile!
I used Halo glitter on the dress waistband by applying pva glue and then the glitter to make it look like an encrusted gold waistband! The papers i used for the dress was from an old pack i got from DoCraft "Papermania", i stamped the image using Chloes sparkelicious glitter onto the paper so the pattern showed on the dress the way Chloe did on her samples and cut a couple of the flowers from the paper sheet and applied some Glossy Accents to give them some body and shine before sticking them over the flower on the stamp on the waistband of the dress. The message is also from Chloe!  I have entered this    Lexi's Creations challenge 112 use your punches and dies



Thank you for looking and i hope this has given you some inspiration !
