Simon says Stamp and Show - Embossing
My second card is one I was asked to make for a couple celebrating their 60th wedding anniversary. My friend had seen a card I had made with the lovely 'Jack and Ginger' image by Mo Manning and asked if I could use that. This is what I came up with.
I coloured it with promarkers and added a panel of pearlised card that I dry embossed in a diamond pattern and added gems. Not sure if I have gone a bit overboard with the bling, but 60 years is some going these days! Well, I'd better go. Thanks for looking!

Oh Wow Sally, these are both beautiful cards. I love the elegant design of the first one - the stamped frame is gorgeous, and what a lovely anniversary card - 60 years is quite an achievement, and the gems and diamond embossing are perfect for the occasion.
Hugs, Sylvia xx

I love the soft elegance of the first card and the second is perfect for a 60th wedding anniversary - I agree, some going and should definitely be marked with bling! Vx
Both gorgeous, Sally! The bling is fine for the anniversary card. After 60 years, I think it's allowed! Love the soft colours on the first card. That WM stamp is probably my favourite of theirs. My new stamps from WM arrived today, but I've been so busy with stuff for work I haven't had time even to look at them yet! xx
Beautiful cards, very different but both just perfect for the "job" love them

You've certainly been busy, Sally. I love the Wedding card, those WM stamps are perfect for any occasion aren't they.
Your 60 card is great too, you can never have enough bling!!
