Happy 25th Anniversary

Hello and welcome.

Today I have a card using one of my favorite heart dies.


I immediately thought of this heart.  Since I will be needing a 25th anniversary card
in the near future, silver seemed the best way to go.

I die cut the LaRue heart from silver foil and fussy cut a piece
of velum to put behind it.

The background has a cut out from another Memory Box die
and the number 25 is heat embossed with silver.

All of this is on a piece of Brushed Silver card stock.

Here's a picture that shows some of the shimmer better.


I added a bit of card jewelry with that large rhinestone.


Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.

Enjoy!

What a fabulous anniversary card. Bonnie! I love the contrast of the soft and translucent vellum and the gorgeous and shiny silver foil heart. The card is full of both elegance and festivity. The shimmer of the silver brushed card base adds more elegance and the large rhinestone, more festivity. The layout of each element is superb, as always!
