40th Ruby Wedding Anniversary

Good morning all.

It was congratulations to my partner's sister Jean & Trevor on their 40th Ruby Wedding Anniversary on 10 August 2014.

We spent a happy family afternoon yesterday in between showers celebrating with them.

I made their card using one of the Glitter Girls boards to create a book which I layered with Crafters Companion Centura Pearl card, Red, White card stock and Red vellum from crafty stash.

The flowers were made with red tissue paper and were cut with a Spellbinders Blossom die.  The leaves were also cut from a Spellbinders die.

I found the verses from a web site which gives free verses.

Finally, red faux gems were added.

The card stands on a stand which was cut from a Tattered Lace die.

The following card was also made for an order which was to be given to the same couple:

I used an 8" x 8" white scalloped card.

The toppers, ribbon strip and background card were all from Hunkydory.
Peel off sentiment and numbers coloured with Duflex pens completed the card.

Tiddly Inks Design Team Call

Hi everyone, I have discovered these fantastic digi images and have completely fallen in love with them.

Tiddly Inks are having a Design Team Call and I thought I would give it a go.  I love colouring and find it so relaxing that I get completely lost in what I am doing.

Please check out their blog http://tiddlyinks.blogspot.co.uk/  for more information.

For my DT make I have used the cave couple image and papers.  I think these are really adorable and I will definitely be collecting lots more Tiddly Inks images now that I have found them!
