Pearl Wedding


I was asked to create a very special gift, a pearl wedding anniversary album and card for a neighbour.
So this is the result, I hope you like it she does :)


First of all the design paper is from Lemoncraft, they have some large scrapbook sheets which were perfect for this project,

The letters you can see hre were cut out of while card with Sizzix letters.  I then painted them with some acrylic paint.  When they were dry I added them to the album doing a dry fit to make sure everything worked together.


There is a border around the album which is a Dusty Attic one.  I painted the flowers on it with acrylic paint and added some pearl gems to the centres.


At the top left of the album you can see a close up of my floral section.  Added to this is some ribbon donated by my neighbour, some more pearls, sequins, tiny silver dragonfly charms and sparkly dots.


The only thing you could see on the previous pictures were the resin hearts I added.  Here's the full album finished.

So the next thing I did was to work on a card to match the album.


I've used a Dusty Attic frame which is out of the same pack, just smaller and perfect for the card.  The ribbon here is smaller (shhh it's actual recycled from some clothing, you know those annoying ribbon this that are supposed to hold your clothes on a hanger)

An extra element on the card are some tiny wooden hearts.



The sentiment was printed directly onto the design paper.

Thanks for popping by and thank you for Arty Divas for having me as a guest designer this time
