I don't know if you were supposed to use all three colors, red/purple/gold, for today's free for all or not but I chose to use just purple and gold. Every now and then I want an 50th anniversary card and thought this would fit the bill.
I stamped Elements of Style in white, then white embossed for my bg, then just added my sentiment in gold, layered on a nestabilities label, added some gold rhinestones and you have it. I used the SU small "slit" punch on the top of my card so I could wrap my ribbon around. I was going to wrap some gold ribbon in with my white but decided that sometimes less is better.

Oh, that's a gorgeous anniversary card. Very regal looking. I thought that tag would be perfect - I had it out, but it was too big for my card. The touch of gold from the bling is great.

I hope not, because I only used red! Your purple and white is so striking and definitely regal!
