The theme is Graduation OR Anniversary, chosen by Buffy.
I made this card for my dear friends' 65th Wedding Anniversary, which is Sapphire - so is 45th Anniversary so a bit confusing! Anyway went with blue and white and added some bling to the stamped, embossed numerals. I cut out the numbers and popped them up on foam for a little dimension. the stamped, embossed sentiment banner was treated the same way. The numerals are part of a clear stamp set- Rufus Rabbit Decorates, they are pretty large the card base is 7 x 7 inches.
There's more inspiration from my teamies at Fab'n'Funky Challenge blog, and of course we'd love to see what you can create for this challenge
Thanks for visiting

Wow! 65 years! How wonderful and amazing! Sapphire - maybe the 45th year is smaller than the 65th year? LOL It's a fantastic card to celebrate such a happy occasion! Hugs, de
A nice card and the numbers beautifully decorated.
