'Golden Wedding Anniversary' Card

Hello All,
We decided to make a card for a Golden Wedding Anniversary that was coming up. We knew the card had to be special, so this card was time consuming, but well worth the effort! We make this a large card to empathise the occasion.

This is a 'Portrait' style card we've made using a Scalloped '8x8' square card. Being as this was designed as a Golden Wedding Anniversary card, we knew that we had to follow the theme of 'Gold and Cream'. We used Gold Mirrored card for our backing layer and then followed on with layering a pale Cream Rose backing paper on top. To match, we cut out Mirrored card again using the Spellbinders Nestabilities Labels Seventeen at the largest size, then cut out our sentiment verse using the next size down as this then gives a nice border. We did the same with the name tag at the top of the card only cutting this out in a rectangular fashion not using the Spellbinders Nestabillities. The rose's were hand crafted and we will explain how they were created in our next post. The final embelishements being the 'Bride & Groom' and the 'Ribbon & Bow' were added to complete the project.
