Golden Years

Last month my brother-in-law and his wife celebrated 50 years of marriage. It was fortunate that it came at the same time as the Scribbles Designs The Power of Words challenge as it fitted the theme really well.

Materials used:   
Scribbles Designs - #085 Wedding Subway Art
white card
pink distress ink
vintage rose designer paper
dusky rose card
gold mirri card
large acrylic number stamps
heart die set
gold greeting sticker
white A5 card blank

Print the Wedding Subway Art image onto white card and colour with the distress ink. Use a damp paint brush to remove colour from any pictures on the design. Use heart shaped dies to cut two hearts.

Use the number stamps and a piece of acetate to reverse stamp on the back of some gold card. Cut the numbers out and run an embossing tool around the edges.

Cover the font of an A5 card blank with dusky rose card and add a piece of roses designer paper cut slightly smaller to leave an edge.

Arrange the hearts on the front of the card and attach with glue. Use gel glue to attach the numbers on the card front, one on each heart.

I hope to see you over at the Scribbles Designs Challenge with your own take on the theme.

Thanks for dropping in. Take care.

Pippa

    The large gold numbers are so striking and have such a punch of shine! The background paper is so pretty and I love the way you used the subway art.
