I was asked to make a 30th anniversary card with pearls on the front. Today's IC challenge site had several pieces of inspiration. I settled on this one, although I used green for my background instead of blue because the color for the 30th anniversary is green. The inspiration piece has one pearl in the oyster, but I put two to represent the happy couple.

Lois, this is a wonderful anniversary card and the paper with hearts is just perfect. What a great idea with the pearls.

Sure to bring a smile to the intendeds! 30 years flies by doesn’t it. When you think about what an oyster goes through to create something as lovely as pearls...quite a metaphor for marriage! Nicely done, Lois!

Wonderful use of your inspiration piece and the digi shell makes an awesome setting for that pair of pearls. It even adds to the metaphor . . .a few jagged edges on the outside but perfection in the end . . . Beautiful frame & matting.
