I found 2 pieces of SU! dsp that I thought looked pretty together, so I made the background for this anniversary card with them, then added a rose and some ferns. The rose by Stampendous was stamped with Antique Linen Distress ink and colored with Copics and fussy cut. The ferns were die-cut from striped dsp with unbranded dies gifted to me by a friend, and the rose was popped up on foam tape for dimension. The sentiment was done with 2 die-cut pieces done with MFT label dies and stamped with a SU! teeny tiny wishes sentiment. The final touch was adding a few very tiny gold beads randomly.
I'll enter this into the Happy Little Stampers July - Anything Goes with Dies Challenge.
Thanks for stopping by and make it a great Monday! More heat is on the way as this week progresses. This has been one super hot summer for a lot of us in the world!! Whew! Stay as cool as possible!
