Anniversary Card
My grandparents-in-law have been married for 60+ years and their anniversary is just around the corner on October 10th. My husband contributed the present and the card making fell to me (obviously).
As coincidence would have it my favourite card maker, Kristina Werner, did an anniversary card for her Finally Friday videos which i really liked. Here’s her card:
I really liked the idea of the stamped man & woman and i liked the patterned paper in the background too so i decided to use this card as my inspiration. Here’s my take on it:
I first tried to replicate the stamped man & woman but do it “Indian” which didn’t look very good. My drawing skills just aren’t that up to scratch! So i settled on 2 faces. I then compiled 4 patterned papers but didn’t sort out my measurements before i cut and well…lets just say that we’ll save that background idea for another card.
Since the card was Indian themed i finished off with some simple henna designs on the background circle and along the borders. Can anyone suggest a good photo-taking option for cards? I always seem to have either too much light or too little which prevents the details of the card coming through the way they should.
I have another anniversary card but i cant show that yet as it hasn’t made its way to its intended recipients. We’ll save that for another post 
Enjoy the weekend…
