25th Wedding Anniversary.

Morning all, back to share another recent order. This one was an 8x8 card for a 25th Wedding anniversary. 25 is silver so I used lots of silver card to make it. I cut the numbers on my cricut and mounted on circles and scallop circles. The flowers are a Marianne die and the leaves are an old whimsy die. 

It was really hard to get a decent pic so this is all I managed! 

Back tomorrow with something new! 

A Challenge! A joint 30th, for male and female!

I had a request from one of my regular customers, he wanted a joint 30th birthday card, he game me the names and left me with it. I sat for a while wondering how I would make a card for both male and female to share and it still look good ... then the penny dropped .... 

Some simple embossing, some numbers cut on the cricut (after I dusted it off) a bit of jiggery pokery and voila! 

Male side .... 

Female Side ...

Names in the centre and mixed the papers behind

Picture of the back of the centre to write in, with ribbon attached to close the card.

He loved the card, as did the people in the office where he worked!
