Second Wedding Anniversary Card

This card measures 6 ins x 6ins and is made using a white, pre-scored card blank from a bulk pack bought from Hobbycraft.

Second Wedding Anniversary Card

I made this very simple card made for my neighbours Kata and Laci on their second wedding anniversary.  There’s not an awful lot to it, I just covered the front with a tiny blue and white heart print paper and then added the wooden numbers (from The Works) and the sentiment using black tape in my ancient Dymo label maker.

I was going to leave it at that, but then I got all fiddle farty by colouring the numbers and adding a layer of glossy accents to them. I also decided to add the little wooden bird embellishments, as I had used the same, but white, on their first anniversary card, I guess now I need to think of a way of incorporating them on their anniversary card for next year.  Faux stitching round the edges of the card using a black fine liner pen finishes the card off.

I like the finished product. I think those birds and your coloring/Glossy Accents are nice touches. I bet your neighbors really appreciate your thoughtfulness.
