This week's inspiration challenge was an easy one, and has the potential for very elegant cards. I chose the following letterpress card to be inspired by: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/387591111664770977/
I used an old brass stencil that I still had in my stash and used it as the bottom layer on my big shot. First the magnetic platform, then the stencil, then cardstock, then the rubber mat, and finally, the C plate. This makes a nice embossed area. Just added the sentiment and it's a simple one layer card.

I too think the swans make a perfect anniversary card. Thanks for the stack recipe you used for your brass stencil. I have a number of them and may try that rather than hand embossing. I like that you didn't centre the sentiment.
