Silver Wedding Anniversary

*************************

Commission

The main layer is scored with 1" diagonals and matted on to the base card with foam tape. There are three layers of ovals - the bottom layer is silver mirri card cut with fancy scissors (you can't see this too well in the pic). The 'fancy' oval layer was embossed with the CB texture EF and painted with iridescent medium. The greeting is computer generated and these top two layers adhered with foam tape.




The gorgeous lace is from Linda, Funkie Junkie's boutique and flowers bought at a craft fair last year.
The seam binding ribbon is Cadbury chocolate purple - it looks a bit dark here and is actually much lighter IRL.
