Liz has chosen our optional theme at Allsorts this week.
It's all about Romantic Occasions if you want to be tempted by a challenge. We'd love to see your Anything Goes makes too. Prizes will be drawn at the end of the month.
I have made an anniversary card using a paper pad and die from a Crafters Companion collection called Rustic Wedding. I rather like the earthy tones that really are quite different.
I used an LOTV sentiment and a wooden "love" embellishment that I found in a drawer. I added lace and pearls as a nod to the kind of trim that might adorn a wedding dress. As we are now in July let's hope that the summer brides are going to enjoy some good weather now, unlike the first six months of the year!!
Talking of weather we had plenty of rain yesterday after a dry spell so it was quite nice not to have to water the garden.
Hope that you will join us. Have a good weekendxx
So pretty I love these muted shades! xx

ReplyDeleteA beautiful card with a romantic feel, love the lace and pearls and wonderful monochromatic color scheme!
ReplyDeleteYour anniversary card has a charming rustic elegance with the earthy tones from the Crafters Companion collection. The addition of lace, pearls, and the wooden "love" embellishment creates a beautiful nod to wedding themes, reminiscent of delicate wedding dress trimmings. It's a lovely blend of textures and colors for a special occasion card!
