Wedding anniversary

Hi Everyone,

It is my parents 54th wedding anniversary coming up, so I thought I would send them a card, whilst they holiday up in the sun.

It was trying out a technique that Kirsty Brown demonstrated to us at Convention. What a great idea, and so easy. Bleaching.

 This is just a look inside.

Stamp Set:  Elements of Style

Card Stock:  Crumb Cake, Early Expresso, Marina Mist

Ink:  Early Expresso

Accessories:  Aqua painter, Bleach, Taffeta Ribbon, Word Window Punch,  Modern Label Punch

I thought whilst I was making the card, thought it appropriate to do a scrap page as well.

 This is another idea I got from Conventions. This technique was from Sharnee Torrents.  Ripped frame technique.

Stamp Set:  Nature Walk (love this set)
Card Stock:  Basic Black, Naturals DSP, Very Vanilla
Ink:  Crumb Cake, Early Expresso
Accessories: Stampin' Write Markers, Taffeta Ribbon, Antique Brads, Shimmer Paint.
