Anniversary Card

A clean and simple anniversary card to share today, which I made recently
for friends and for my nephew and wife.

The embossing folder I've used is one of the first ones I purchased

many years ago but have not used for a long while.

After embossing a panel of white card, I matted it onto some pink card 

using 3D foam, and glued the cut-out heart directly onto the pink card.

Lastly, I added some diamanté gems and the peel-off sentiment onto 

the punched card.

The products I have used are:

DoCraft XCut - Aperture Dies Cutting Die Set - Amore

Woodware punch - Scalloped Oval

A New Great-Niece

Today I am sharing the card I made for my nephew and wife, on the arrival of their

from card and white foam, and before sticking together, I placed some pink card
