Golden Wedding........

This is a card I was asked to make a few weeks ago.It was to be a special card from 6 girls for a Golden Wedding Anniversary. I decide to make it 8x8 as that's a very special size and I seem to be making quite a few of them lately. I used Papermania Silk Screened Paper (Gold Ornate Metallic).I then took another piece and ran it through the Cuttlebug with the Script embossing folder,tore the edges and inked it to look old.I added a piece of vintage looking lace around it.The hearts were stamped and embossed with gold embossing powder. (I think the stamp is an Anita's one)I matted them onto cream hammered card,punched two eyelets with my Crop-A-Dile and tied a bow between the two with gold ribbon. The 50 chipboard numbers were from a Brenda Pinnick kit that I embossed with gold too.The ivory organza ribbon I ran down the length of the card and added a row of ivory pearls,a bow and two ivory heart shaped pearls.To finish it I wrote the sentiment on the Robo and matted it onto some left over gold card and added two gold brads.

I'd also like to enter this card into Kerry's (A Load Of Old Pickle) blog candy challenge to celebrate 10,000 hits on her blog. Well done Kerry!. The challenge was to make a card using Kerry's favourite crafty essential,which is ribbon.

Thanks for looking

A Wonderful Surprise

Well yesterday I got a lovely surprise in the post. I received a beautiful hand doodled Rockchick of my own by the lovely Kerry (curlygirlyme). Kerry if you visit her blog, hand draws the most fabulous doodles as she calls them. They're little works of art. The cards she makes with them and other images are just amazing. A very talented lady.
I had sent Kerry and her sister in law Jools some stamped images to have a play with and Kerry sent me this thank you card with the little doodled Rockchick on it. I was so amazed and touched at the card.She also included a couple of extra doodles of her for me to colour. I'm so delighted with them and her gorgeous card. Please pop by her blog and see her amazing designs. I've shown the card at an angle and only a peek of the doodles to protect Kerry's copyright to the images.
Thank you so much Kerry,you're a wonderful friend.
