I made and sent both of these cards already so I thought I'd share them today. The turquoise and black version was done with an older Sizzix embossing folder and the anniversary sentiment was done with a Kat Scrappiness die. The tiny hearts were done with a retired SU! mini punch.
Here's another version done in a berry color with a Sunny studio quilted hearts embossing folder.
I'm sharing the first card with these challenges:
Can You Handle the Pressure? January 13, 2024 - A/G using an embossing folder with an optional twist of snow people
The Word Power Challenge #1 - The sentiment must be the focus of your card.
Allsorts Challenge week #763 - make your own background or A/G
Thanks so much for stopping by and have yourself a great day!

These are lovely anniversary cards. I like to send those because most people don't get anniversary cards, especially if they've been married a long time.
Great cards! I like the embossing folders you used for the backgrounds!
Love them both, Carol! Love your color choices and the design! I love the embossing on each card which just makes your colors pop! Well done, my friend! TFS! Stay warm! Hugs~
Two beautifully done cards, great color scheme on both and wonderful texture achieved with the embossing folders. Thanks so much for sharing with us at Allsorts challenge this week!

To great cards using the embossing folders. I have been determined to use all my white scraps of card stock up and have now put them all through my various embossing folders so I have no excuse not to use on any future cards that i make. Hugs Mrs A.
Two lovely anniversary cards with pretty embossed backgrounds Carol. Xxx
Your cards are beautiful, I love the embossed backgrounds. I must dig out my embossing machine and use it again, or give it away! Hugs, Valerie
Have a great week!
Wonderful anniversary cards today, Carol! I'm loving the texture with both of the backgrounds, and I really love the black layer behind those elegant word dies! Beautiful cards!
Beautiful
Nice cards, simple and elegant.
Love the black shadows and hearts used with those bold colours, they make the cards very impressive. Beautiful embossed backgrounds too!
Hugs dear friend, hope you are enjoying the snow. Here today seems already spring!
Have a great week!
A short C&P comment as I'm unable to type/craft much with MS flare up, but wanted you to know I've seen your Allsorts entry and thank you for sharing with us.

Great cards, like the color combo and those little hearts are so cute!
Hi, Carol! You've made two lovely anniversary cards, and I like the simplicity and CAS style, as well as the gorgeous embossed white panels, a classic in my eyes. Hope you're staying warm!
Hugs,

Wonderful anniversary cards! Love the embossed background, sentiments, and hearts!
So pretty. those colors really pop on the white embossed background.
Beautiful anniversary cards, Carol!
Love your choice of colors.
Hugs and blessings
I adore dry embossed panels and love how you just added the sentiments so they aren't covered up too much!
A generic C&P comment as unable to type much (MS flare up) just to let you know I popped by to take a peek and thank you for joining Allsorts.

Two wonderful anniversary cards. I love that as crafters we can make multiple cards, change colors to get a new look and build our stash with some quick color changes.
