The current challenge at Simon Says Stamp is Anything Goes! They are featuring the awesome Simon Says Stamp dies although you don't need to use them to join in the fun. Good thing as I don't own any of them......... yet:) If you check out what the Design Team did with them on the challenge post you'll see what I mean!!
I do have several of the Memory Box dies that I've ordered from SSS in the past and I was inspired to use one of them in a 50th wedding anniversary card I needed for some close friends of my hubby's family:
I die cut the Memory Box Tessatina Border from some white, gold and pool cs. After affixing the white die cut border to a white cs panel I adhered some of the pool and gold pieces. A circle was then die cut from this panel and the sentiment and wine glasses from My Sentiments Exactly Anniversary clear set (a gift from my stampin' friend Ruthie!) were gold embossed on a separate die cut circle. The numbers were die cut from the Cricut Keystone cart.
Other Materials Used: Stampin' Up pool party cs, Papertrey ink white cs, Office Supply store gold cs, W R Memory Keepers corner rounder, Spellbinders Nestie
Hope everyone has a great weekend!
