Mono Tone Commissioned Wedding Anniversary Card



I was asked to make a wedding anniversary card for a client to give to his wife.
I started with a piece of 16" x 16" centura pearl card and made 2 8" x 8" cards from it.

I used the Take 'Art stamp set from InkyDoodles and Vintage Sepia Versafine inkpad to decorate the front of the card. I then inked over this with Frayed Burlap Distress ink pad and I love the way it fades & defuses the Versafine ink. At first, I was like 'oh no' but then I started to like it so carried on. 

The lattice work was cut on the Silhouette Cameo, again from Centura pearl cardstock. 
On the reverse side of the cardstock, I simply inked over with Frayed Burlap Distress ink pad. 

The leaves were cut on the Cameo at the same time as the lattice. I inked them then spray them with water to create some texture on the leaves.

I used 8 of the 'waste' squares from the lattice and stamped the radiant heart from the Take 'Art stamp set with the Versafine Sepia inkpad then edged with Frayed Burlap. 

The four corner squares were applied with 5mm depth foam pads to add height & interest. 

I created the topper with the sentiment on Craft Artist Pro 2 
The font is called "Bleeding Cowboys" and I love it, I use it on a lot of projects.

I then used foam pads to mount the layers and added the remaining 'waste' squares.

I hope you like it and thank you for stopping by my blog today
