Another Diamond Wedding

Another Diamond Anniversary card was required this week - for a friend to give her parents. I wanted to create something with a WOW factor so I decided to make an easel card...

I used a large card base - 8 inches square. The grey and white polka dot patterned paper is so subtle and the perfect base to go wild with all the white dies! I've used various swirls as leaves and afew different sized flower dies to create the blooms. A Diamond Anniversary card is crying out for 'diamonds' and I've used plenty of flat-backed gems to add some sparkle.

The numbers are Tattered Lace dies - cut in white and matted on silver mirri card to add even more sparkle. Finally I've added three tiny die cut butterflies.

The greeting was created in Publisher using Monotype Corsiva font - my go to font for wedding and anniversary cards.

I'm playing along with the challenges at:
