Anniversary 2

Hi friends.
Just a quick post with another anniversary card that I thought might be suitable for the Less is More challenge..............love this sketch......



I am never 100% happy with my CAS cards and always think how fantastic other peoples look.......and as for being quick to do....it takes me ages!


 The swirl is a Sue Wilson Die cut into the edge of the white card and then overlayed on the pale pink which is Hunkydory Adorable Scoreable. I know in the photo it looks like the pink is on top. I swapped the sentiment to the top and added the champagne glasses......an old stamp from stash but so useful. I coloured them and added diamond glaze for the shine.
A bit of a deviation from the sketch I have to say........but my take.................do you think I will get away with it?

Ok well that's it for now.....yes I am a bit like a bus.......don't appear for ages and then two together! Keeps you on your toes....not to mention me!

Enjoy your day and take care............I really appreciate your visits.
Hugs

  5. It really does look like the pink is on top, one of those illusions that plays trick on the eyes. It's a gorgeous design, so elegant and perfect for an anniversary. Great interpretation of the sketch and flipping/turning is allowed so it's all good :)
    Thanks for sharing with us.

  12. Your deviation from the sketch is nothing short of lovely, Carole! Pretty swirls and sparkly champagne? Perfect combination for an anniversary card that is clean, simple and stunning! I love it! I think it warrants a gallery spot over at Addicted to Stamps and More, where the challenge is CAS! Head over, please - I want to be leaving you a comment there as a member of the DT (nudge, nudge!). Your post, again, has me in smiles..you are just so engaging and witty! Coffee/Tea with you would be such a joy1 On my wish list!
    Hugs galore~c
