Cuttlebug Challenge #30 take 2

Second post today
My friend Connie over at Shades of Stamping posted a couple of cards the other day that I really really liked using the Fifth Ave. embossing folder from Stampin-Up so I decided to do one more anniversary card for this weeks inspiration challenge so here it is.For this card I used SU vellum to emboss the roses on cut them out ran a brayer across the back with Lavender Lace ink adhered that to Shimmer White CS from SU that I had stamped Happy anniversary from CTMH with versamark embossed with black fine detail EP ran the white through the cuttlebug using the Swiss Dot folder then layered that on to basic black cs added MS ribbon attached it all to purple cardstock.

Be Inspired # 30 Weddings and Anniversaries

Oh boy got my challenge done early this week at Cuttlebug Challenges instead of a wedding card I did a anniversary card pretty clean and simple I love the look of black and white together so that is what I chose to do with this card

Double the Fun

I have been playing over at Sunflowers and Dragonflies again with Tutorial Tuesday and what a fun tut Beth had this week as always thank you GF (I am still working on that flower now if I could just get the petals lined up straight we will be in business)

On this project I thought it would be cute with a little card inside (which I haven't done yet) and some tea bags in the second pocket would make a really cute favor for a little girls tea party don't you think.

The Dp and ribbon is from We are Memories Comstock Collection
