Love this Anniversary Card

Today I wish my daughter and son-in-law a Happy 4th Anniversary!  They were married on a beautiful July 7th overlooking a vineyard in Temecula CA.  Just gorgeous!

So today I have a special anniversary card for them:

This card has NO stamping on the front.  I let the new Sunshine Wishes Thinlets do all the work, along with some fabulous designer series paper!

That cute heart and the "love" were cut using my Big Shot and the Sunshine Wishes Thinlets.  I used Melon Mambo for the heart, taking my cues from the Pop of Paradise DSP--see those adorable pink and white hearts?  Although difficult to see, I actually cut the "love" twice--once in Whisper White and again in Basic Black--they are layered, slightly offset, to give it a little lift and definition.

To make this card:
1.  Start with a Basic Black base, 4-1/4" x 11", and scored at 5-1/2"
2.  Add a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Melon Mambo
3.  Adhere a piece of the DSP, cut 3-7/8" x 5-1/8"
4.  The 3-1/2" x 4" piece of Melon Mambo was run through the Big Shot with the Elegant Dots embossing folder
5.  Prepare your Whisper White (3-1/4" x 3-3/4") with the heart and "love".  Place some Mini Glue Dots on the back; wrap Silver Thread around your fingers, squish it up and stick it to the Glue Dots, allowing the thread to hang over the sides.  Adhere to the card front.
6.  Add two Brights Enamel Shapes in Melon Mambo

Inside:
I stamped the sentiment from Timeless Love on the inside with Melon Mambo ink, and added one more enamel heart.

Happy Anniversary, Aly and Brandon!
