Working on family cards for January!! For this anniversary card, I started with a light yellow card and a small envelope. These envelopes were a great find at a thrift store last year!!
I found the background paper in my stash. It was in two pieces so I taped them together on the back and trimmed them to the right size. I added some blue mesh over the joint and then a length of yellow ribbon securing the ends on the back with double sided tape. I adhered this large layer to the front of my card. I punched the stamped heart (SU), watercoloured it and then layered it onto a yellow scalloped heart die cut (SU) to create my focal element. I adhered it to my card front using 3D foam tape. I found the greeting in my stash, sponged its edges in yellow and then layered it onto a blue oval which I trimmed with my scallop decorative scissors. I used a push pin to pierce all the scallops to add more texture and interest. I mounted the greeting below my heart using 3D foam tape. Love that background paper!! Therese
