Special Anniversary Card

Hello friends.  I have a special anniversary card to share today.  This one is for my pastor and his wife who are celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary this week.

 I used an older Poppystamps die  (Floral Cake Pop Up Easel set) from 2019.  I have had it for several years but this is the first time I have used it.  I altered it a little by making it a top fold card.  I cut the die a little over half way and then reinserted it to cut the other half so it would stand up when opened.  The original is like an easel card.  I lightly inked around the middle layer with Purple Posy ink so it would stand out better.  The top layer is in two sections and with the ruffle border, it does look like a cake.  The flowers from the same set were cut from Purple Posy card and layered together.  I inked some of them for a little variation.  The leaves were cut from Pear Pizzazz card.  After gluing the flowers and leaves on, I added a golden rhinestone to the centers of the flowers.  I stamped the sentiment (Verve) in Highland Heather ink.  I blended Purple Posy ink on a scrap of Purple Posy card and die cut the 50 with some older number dies by Momenta.  I really like the finished card and will have to use this die set again.

I will link to Triple B Challenge - Birds, Blooms, Butterflies

and to Darnell's NBUS Challenge

Thanks so much for stopping by.  Have a wonderful day.

Happy Stamping,
