A co-worker asked me to make a card for her aunt and uncle, who will celebrate their 50th Anniversary.
Today's Inspiration challenge was the perfect challenge for this! Blue Bird Table Number Cards. I like the blue and white and the dainty birds. Also, I liked the number 1. I knew for my own card, I was going to incorporate "50" into it somewhere. I did add gold because the 50th Anniversary is the Golden one.
The numbers of "50" are from a very old PSX clear stamp set.
The other images are from Crafty Secrets: Cherish.

Your co-worker is going to be SO pleased, Sophie, with this sweet and beautiful card for this very special anniversary. Love the touches of gold, but that the main focus in the loving couple.

Oh my! I find so many things to love about this card. The touch of gold is just enough, the string bows are placed so well (really like the way you did the '50' tag), and the image and its colouring are superb. Thanks!
