Congratulations to CherylQuilts, this week's Queen for the Day. I was inspired by her Christmas Card for BeckyTE to create this 70th anniversary card for dear friends.

Wow, I was hoping you were going to use that set for the card for the Schimeks. I have to make one too but I guess I will use the house mouse set I have. Love this layout and the decorative corners. So pretty and know they weill cherish this card.

Oh, Lynn! What a beautiful card and what a beautiful occasion for the Schimeks (I see above)! What a blessing to celebrate that many years together! I LOVE the beautiful image and that gorgeous ribbon! How neat and wonderfully you've used the multi-step stamp (perfectly aligned!), and I love the precious crown in your photo! What a special gift to this precious couple...and thank you EVER so much for honoring me today! I am so blessed and thrilled! (So, I guess Liz will make a House Mouse card, which will be darling, I'm sure! How precious!) Hugs!!

Very nice card! I have those corner dies. How do YOU attach them to a card without getting adhesive all over the front? I've struggled with this for some time.

Stunning anniversary card! I love the green on this and how you used it in the corners with your fancy corner dies. The couple is wonderful...your friends will be delighted with this card!

I'm glad to hear it isn't just ME who has problems adhering those corners! I use Zig two way glue and then one of those glue erasers, and still have problems. Guess whatever works is okay. I, too, just made a 70th anniversary card, but didn't use the corners. You did a nice job!
