Happy Anniversary

On Monday it's my parents wedding anniversary.  This is the card I have made for them:

8 x 8 fancy-edged card blank from Cupcakecrafting

Silver mirror card from stash

Image from Joanna Sheen's Faye Whittaker cd-rom printed onto watercolour card and matted onto blue pearlescent card.

Backing paper from same cd-rom, printed onto Satin Finish printer paper.

Doily from Joanna Sheen.

Sentiment is Lili of the Valley stamped using Faded Jeans Distress Ink, matted onto a Spellbinders Persian die.

I created the little bouquet using flowersoft wires and Delphinium blue flowersoft, a Nellie Snellen punch was used to create the greenery and a heart shaped hat pin from Wild Orchid Crafts.  Mulberry paper was used to create the cone and a tiny ribbon, tied on my bow shaper, was added to complete the bouquet.

I would like to enter my card in the following challenges:

Relax Teddy Bo

My card for today features one of my favourite bears, Teddy Bo, here he is relaxing on a Sunday afternoon.

8 x 8 card blank

Backing papers and cards all from my stash along with the silver 'mesh', bakers twine and button.

I printed Teddy Bo onto Neenah cardstock and coloured him using Spectrum Noirs in colours to tie in with the backing papers.

The mat the image is sat on is cut using a Spellbinders Labels 5 die, and I cut a faux nestie from bronze pearlescent card.
