This was made for a friend who wanted a gift for a couple celebrating their 65th Wedding anniversary!!
Used some Night and Day DP for the BG of the shadowbox, and added layers of black and silver behind the images that were embossed in silver and popped up for dimension. The silver is VERY DIFFICULT to photograph - this is the best I could do!! The"Remember When" sentiment is from SU's Word Play and used so they would recall the fond memories of their wedding day. Finished off with a couple of CL flourishes and some tiny punched hearts. Sure hope they like it!
Thanks for looking!!

Greenie, what a special card made by a special lady. I love the fact that you personalized it for them and put the "Remember when?" on it to bring back lots of good memories. Black and white is so perfect for an anniversary. You did a beautiful job on it.
Oh Greenie this is just beautiful. I love the vintage feel, the personalization. Black and white is always so beautiful. Your friends will love it along with the Remember When. Just lovely.
