Made this 25th Anniversary card for a lady I babysat when I was a teenager (she was just 2). Boo hoo, I'm really feeling old....Anyway, had fun making this card. Made a big booboo when I cut the title and had to cut it out in a shadow affect. Turned out ok. Used prismas and gamsol to color the flowers. Silver embossed the flowers on the bottom. Used a silver gel pen to put dipdots around the top flowers. Tried to get all the silver I could without overdoing. Made the tiny tag with the 25 on it with a Sizzlits tag die. Stamped the bg canvas in craft white. Then stamped just the top part of the flowers to make the flower border on the bottom. Silver ep on them. Thanks for looking!

Great Card! Beautiful job on your embossing and painting.
I know what you mean about feeling old. The "children" that I babysat for are now grandparents. .......eeeeek she says!
Your coloring on this is image is my favorite of all that I have seen. I love your yellow flower centers that just blend on in to the petals. Wonderful card. And by the way.....I say "getting old is so much better than the alternative". smile
