20th Wedding Anniversary

Hi there,

It's my eldest daughter Cheryl and her husband Darren's 20th wedding anniversary tomorrow (wednesday).

I woke up with this design on my mind one day last week so just ran with it. I really wish it was that easy all the time.
Started by making a circle mask from a piece of scrap copy paper and stamped the script lightly to give it a slightly distressed look, then embossed in gold EP.
I sponged some TH berry red distress ink onto a piece of white card leaving enough space to fit the flower die so the heads were coloured but the stems stayed white and die cut them.
The heart is diecut from an off cut of red pearl card and I've used a small circle die to slot the flower stems into.
I used another tiny piece of red pearl card for the sentiment and numbers.

I'm really pleased with this one and how easy it all went together.

Less is More 2nd entry

Hi there,
 Hoping you're all feeling well and coping with this madness we're living through at the moment. At least if we are confined to barracks we have our crafting to fall back on.

I'm popping in today with a second go at the Less is More challenge which is,

There is a DT vacancy at Less is More that, after much thought and encouragement from hubby I decided I would try for. Unfortunately, when I entered my first card I forgot to add DT after my name DOH!
So I've taken the opportunity to make another card and I'll try not to forget the important bit.

I'm also entering this card into the latest challenge at Time out who are having a birthday celebration

I started off by smooshing some card off cuts with Cosmic Shimmer paints in Ruby and Raspberry

Once dry I cut out the leaf making sure I had enough of both the main colours showing.

I then made a mask by cutting a circle from a scrap of paper and centralising it onto my card front. I then stamped a Script stamp ( Indigo Blu) in Memento London Fog.

I used 2 different dies ( Spellbinders & Die-namics) to make my frame from dark grey card.

The sentiment is by Avery Elle stamped in clear ink and embossed in white EP.

Thanks for popping in x
