Personalised Anniversary card


I matt and layered my 8x8in white card with silver mirror card, navy card and then white embossed card. I embossed the white card with a Tattered Lace embossing folder. I attached ribbon across my card and that attached some lace and pearl embellishment through the centre of the ribbon. I used a nesting set of dies from The Works and firstly die cut the larger size in the silver mirror card, the next size in navy. I die cut the flourishes with Cheery Lynn large and small dies. I printed a personalised sentiment and die cut it with the next size in the nesting set. I attached the flourishes around the sentiment. I attached the larger flourish on the ribbon before adding the other embellishments with my glue gun. I have added flowers then pearls on string and pearl pins between the flowers.
