25th Anniversary Card

I can't remember a time when the grass was so green and everything was starting to bloom by mid April.  We're enjoying the nice weather and starting to plan for the cottage season. 

I've been following a challenge on the Cricut forum and created this 25th anniversary card.  I'm really pleased with how it turned out!

Cricut cuts - Elegant Edges for background frame and Sweethearts for flowers

The two strips were covered in heavy duty aluminium foil and embossed (Tim Holtz butterflies and Sizzix flowers)

Sizzix nestabilities for round frame

Tim Holtz die for flourish

Pearl accents and bling 25 sticker

Paper Making Memories Wedding stack

Theme of the day "Happy Anniversary"

My dear family and friends celebrated their wedding anniversary over the past few months - ranging from the 4 year mark to 55 wonderful years of wedded bliss.

For my dear nephew and his wife - the perfect pair card:

Recipe:  Recollections turquoise blue cardstock, scraps from SEI Oasis

The interesting fold for this card is a technique from Yoliebean

The next card was for my dear BFF and her husband:

Next card was for my dear sister and her husband:

And last, but not least, the card for my dear parents celebrating their 55th wedding anniversary:
