Where has the week gone? I can't believe we're coming to the end of Summer holidays over here - the kids are due back at school in a few days so I'm frantically trying to do all those things I should have done 6 weeks ago!
Time for another card using the fab new products over at Paper Smooches. I love the new Curls and Swirls stamp set and used it to make a card for my aunt and uncle who celebrated their Golden wedding anniversary on New Years Day - 50 years...isn't that amazing?
I randomly stamped the flourishes in Versamark onto a navy background, then embossed them in white, gold and silver. The sentiment is from one of my older PS sets - Sentiment Sampler. I embossed this in white on vellum as I didn't want to detract from all those pretty swirls!
Go and take a peek at all the new goodies that Kim has on offer in the store - there's also heaps of inspiration on how to use them on the Paper Smooches blog!
Thanks for stopping by!
