Good morning, here is my DT make for this fortnight's challenge at
the theme is Anniversaries, chosen by our lovely Buffy.
I made this for some very dear friends' 50th Wedding Anniversary.
This is a Tuxedo fold, which is simpler than it looks (lots of tutorials online). I cut all the pieces of gold paper to size and embossed them using a swirly EF (it's old- I don't know the brand).
The flower stamps are from Honey Doo, stamped onto white vellum and gold embossed, fussy cut and layered together with gold colour gems in the centre (my friend loves a bit of bling!), a few die cuts and a stamped sentiment.
There's plenty of lovely inspiration from the rest of the team over at Fab'n'Funky Challenge blog so be sure to pop over and check it out.
Thanks for visiting,
Chris

Fabulous Golden Wedding Annivesary card, Chris. This style of card is still on my list of folds to try. I think the embossing folder might be Cuttlebug ‘D'vine Swirl‘.
