35th Wedding Anniversary

Hello Everyone!

Today I want to share with you something a little different. I have abandoned shabby chic today in lieu of crisp, clean and yet subtle. My husband's parents are celebrating 35 years together and I wanted something super romantic and special for them. They are such amazing people and I'm very lucky to call them family.

I am entering this card into two amazing challenges, which I will tell you about in a minute. First, here's a look at the card.

This is my second challenge over at Hobby Cutz Challenge Blog. I just love their creativity and I am excited to participate with them again. This week the challenge is #56 - White on White. I realize that there is a little ivory and some silver, but a girl's gotta accessorize!

This is my first time participating in a challenge at Sketchy Colors, but I'm really excited to have found their blog. You should stop in there and have a look at their talented design team creations and their great challenges. For this challenge #218, they supplied us with two images, one for colours and one for layout.

I decided to go with the tall portrait style because I really like the way Maya's card was done (such a beautiful card that you should really have a look at). I decided for my second colour to go with silver, since the photograph of the horse was white and grey and because it's a romantic combination for an anniversary card. I added silver charms, findings, beads, pins and a silver button. Hope you enjoy!
