Milestone Anniversary
My parents are celebrating a milestone wedding anniversary today--50 years! I made this card based on the current Mojo Monday sketch to mark the very special occasion. Since 50 years is traditionally known as the gold anniversary, I kept my palette to white and gold, adding lots of texture along the way. The background panel is embossed with a triangular pattern. I added a plain white strip down the middle of the panel, then adhered a wide fishtail flag strip to the right side. The "happy anniversary" sentiment is a single stamp from Verve Stamps. As I was making the card, I realized I don't have many anniversary stamps in my collection--I probably should have thought about this a while ago knowing this anniversary was coming up...To go with the anniversary theme, I cut a pair of dotted hearts from gold paper using a die from Lil' Inker Designs. They were adhered to the bottom of the panel using foam tape. The finished panel was adhered to a white card base to complete the clean, classic look.
Materials Used:
Happy Anniversary Plain Jane (Verve Stamps); Versafine Clair Nocturne ink (Tsukineko/IMAGINE Crafts); gold paper (Target); Love Triangle embossing folder (Cuttlebug); Fishtail Flag STAX dies (My Favorite Things); Dual Dotted Heart dies (Lil' Inker Designs); foam tape
