A Christmas Anniversary card.


A good friend of mine asked me to make her daughter and son in law an anniversary card, their anniversary is today (23rd December) and she wanted it with a Christmas theme. A difficult one to get my head around.

I used my cuttlebug and nesties to cut the centre, stamped, coloured and cut lots of holly leaves, then glittered the berries and stuck them on with silicone glue so they stood proud. I used a good old faithful stamp for the couple and stamped her dress on some red paper, stamped over with smaller holly leaves. I used the waste from the centre and overstamped with the smaller holly leaves to mount the couple on. This was placed on the second page of the card. I added a red ribbon down the side as well but this was scanned before I finished the card off....ooops. A congratulations message was printed onto the third page.

I also made a box which I didn't scan with the same theme on the front and a couple of gold bells which usually go on my front door wreath!!!!!!!
I only made a quick scan of this to see if they liked it, and forgot to scan again when finished so not the best quality
