I still had one more 80th card to make for a friends mum so I have incorporated that into the design as well. Here is the card I made -
The papers were from the Cosmo Cricket Tea for Two range which I really love and the card base was from Archiver's Your Truly stationary that I picked up when I worked for them in America.
On the bow I added some Kaisercraft flowers and vintage twine. You can also see the hand stitching which went around the card and across the central banner section. I then added some pearl detail with Kaisercraft pearls. The lace was from my stash.
I decided to move away from the square tag embellishment and use an MFT doily (yes- my fav's again!!) and then I added a fishtail banner to the centre of the tag. Using rubons, I was able to cut the greeting into pieces and get it to follow the line of the central oval piece. It's a little hard to see but the 80 also has some distress stickles applied to it.
Thanks again for dropping by!
nicely done, a pretty card
