Anniversary Date...

Hi there,

I played along with this week's gorgeous Play Date colour challenge along with the Waltzingmouse sketch...



This is one of my favourite colour combos at the moment (I'm thinking of redecorating our bedroom with this sort of scheme lol!). The Blissful Authentique papers are perfect for these colours so I dug them out along with some Walzingmouse stamps to come up with this...


I used WMS's Ovals Classic Frames for the cameos, and their Seasons of Love set for the sentiment in the centre square as well as the flourish stamped around it (stamped with Daffodil Delight ink). I sponged some daffodil ink around the centre square and inside the cameos lightly then inked around all three squares with Tea Dye ink to soften a little. The 'Happy Anniversary' sentiment is from a PTI set (Damask Delight). I added some accents cut with a Spellbinders accents die as well as some rhinestones for a bit of extra sparkle. I finished things off with some satin ribbon for a touch of elegance.

Thanks for stopping by!
