Anniversary Years

I have found another card in my files that I haven't shown yet. Best get my skates on as this years card is due for making soon.  The card was for a 10th Wedding Anniversary and according to the  information list I use this is  celebrated using  Aluminium/Tin as the theme.

Card shape is a Centre Pop Out which folds flat for posting.. The pretty bird paper is from The Works 'Fairytale Stories' and the spotty one( that matches perfectly) is by LOTV ' Snow Princes'. I used a piece of aluminium foil in an embossing folder by Spellbinders  called 'Floral' to make the centre display panel.  The border along the top of the card is made using a Martha Stewart punch.  The numbers are from a pop out sheet in my stash along with the silver sentiment stickers.
I made a matching envelope with the left over pieces of paper.  The card for this year needs to be Steel so need to put my thinking cap on as the theme is quite similar. Tin cans do spring to mind though!

The hackers have been back causing me chaos. Just spent the past week changing everything in sight which has been annoying and taken some time to do. Fortunately I was alerted straight away and so prevented any damage happening. It does leave you  looking over your shoulder and checking all is ok. 

Entering this card into the following challenges:
All  Sorts Challenge #716 Anything goes with wings.
Shopping Our Stash #490 Anything stating with the letter B. I have used Birds.
2 Crafty Critter Crazies #71  Anything goes with a Critter.  I have used Birds.
Allys Angels #67 Anything goes.

Hackers are the pits - you'd think they'd find something else to occupy themselves with.

Hacker are a pain, pity they haven't got anything better to do, same with all the spammers, just delete a whole batch from the blogs.

The foil panel is beautiful and perfect for a tin anniversary. Using the aluminum foil to emboss came out so gorgeous and the shine is lovely. I'm sorry you had to deal with hackers and hope that is the end of it.

This is stunning, like the aluminum and your fold is fabulous!

Greta said...

Oh no--hackers! Just so disgusting & makes me feel helpless. Glad you got it taken care of before big problems. What a beautiful card & how great those papers matched! I never think to emboss my aluminum foil, but now I'm going to do it. Plus, I remember people adding alcohol ink to the foil, so may try that.
