I was inspired by a comment on my Marcasite card uploaded a few days ago. lilsisbet remarked that changing it to gold would be great for a golden anniversary card. So here's an example. I used the Allegro CB folder, remembered an old Anne Murray song that I've heard played at many anniversaries, and so here'tis.
The embossing is done on gold vellum, which I bought for Christmas cards a couple of years ago and never used. Can you believe a package of paper laid around this house for 2 years unopened? Impossible!!!! The hearts were stamped with SU white craft and embossed with Seafoam white EP from Ranger. This stamp was MADE to be embossed. Hope y'all like it.

Nancy- I really love this card. When I saw the sentiment, I could hear Anne Murray singing 'Can I have this dance, for the rest of my life...' I love that song, and I love this card. You are right- this stamp was made to be embossed!
