Hi everyone! Sorry I haven't been around for a week or so, I've been very busy making a project for my Mum and Dad's Silver Anniversary. I will share this with you another day as they have not received it yet, however they have received their card so I can share that today!
I made this card with the intention of it being quite CAS as I wanted it to be quite special for them.
I added Tim Holtz Tattered Florals and some punches from hobbycraft. I used pearlised card and was searching for hours looking for the right textured paper to go with it and voila I found a snippet of cream textured card in my snippets box!! I used it for the frame behind the sentiment and some of the flowers.
I topped it off with ribbons and pearls (the ribbon was straight by the way, I think it is the angle I took the photo from)!
My Mum and Dad went to Las Vegas for their Anniversary and saw Celine Dion live at Caesars Palace, I was very jealous as I am a big fan of hers! So glad they had an amazing time though. They took the card with them to Las Vegas (which I also made a box for on my hougie board so it didn't get squashed in their case!) and we video called each other when they opened it, they loved it so I was really pleased!
I would like to enter this card in to the following challenges:
Thank you for looking

Hi Laura
Re. tips for making a stepper card - I have to confess that for that particular one I cheated and used a pre-scored and cut one - bought from a shop :(
However, why not drop Sarn an email - she did a great tutorial for her card making class she runs, and did send me the instructions. Which I printed off...... and then deleted the email.
I have used her instructions with great success but probably best if you have them, plus the correct measurements direct from Sarn. Good luck!
Hugs, Di xx
WOW, this is gorgeous Laura!! I love all of your beautiful details!
