Golden Wedding...

Chrissie, one of the ladies who comes to my Wednesday workshops, asked me, last year to make a card for her friends' 50th anniversary. I found the fab 'pointy' doiley when I was looking for something similar to a particular die, and this was close enough.
The card was an 8x8 square, and the papers are Pink Petticoat downloads printed onto pearlised paper. I cut the doiley from gold mirri, topped it with a scalloped circle and plain circle which holds the recipients' names and a '50'.
I added gold mesh ribbon, gold die-cut leaves and flourishes, yellow pearls and a pearl heart and a WOC floral arrangement.

The card was quite bulky, so I made a pizza-style box, decorated with a matted square of PP French script paper, criss-crossed gold ribbon, gold 50 and a couple of punched hearts to finish.
Carts used:
'Pointy' doiley- Graphically Speaking
Dee/Joe-Suburbia
50- Sophisticated
Scalloped circle- Elegant Edges
Plain circle- George
Thanks for dropping by!
