Another friend of a friend is celebrating aRuby Wedding Anniversary and I was asked to make a boxed card. It needed to be quite conservative so I hope this one fits the bill.
Gold embossing, using two GKD stamp sets onto red card. The base card is red with a layer of gold followed by some pretty Asian dp. Two layers of ribbon with some red and gold flowers soften the card a little and a few pearls to finish off.
The box was cut from the same red card with a layer of Websters Pages dp. A Spellbinder cut heart along with another flower and some gold leaves complete the lid.This is a quick post, Walshie and I have been working in the garden today, it was looking a bit neglected after a month away. Trouble is I never know when to stop and I'm feeling just a bit sore and tired now!!! Still we have to keep it nice so the Wallaby has a nice place to eat and the other thing he does in my garden!!!
This last photo is for you Jose!!! This is how I take my photo's outside on my little deck off the kitchen.
I hate using the light tent and hope the Photographer, who is teaching a little group of us to take better pictures can give me a few pointers!!!!!
It was hard to explain in an email without pictures.
p.s. That's the Bush you can see in the background NOT my garden (which is a little better that this!!)
I'm off for a soak!!!
This is gorgeous Sue, inside and out. Love the gold embossing and what a striking look it give this beautiful creation. Well done.
