If you all think it looks okay I will send it but I'm definitely going to try to soften the wording on the next one, thanks Ellie.

Yes it's lovely Susie so neat there's a lot to emboss but you done a good job as usual.you so precise
Oh my word..that card is simply stunning! The wording looks blue to me too but silver and blue is a good contrast anyway. Is the With love a die or a stamp? where did you get it please..it is awesome!
It looks blue to me too but I think the contrasting colour makes the whole card pop. It's a beautiful design with the anniversary font echoing the swirls in the love sentiment.
Oh thank you all so much, I have started another card with a dove grey wording so I'll let you see how it turns out.
Elaine thank you so much, that is a die and very fiddly it is, but worth it. I did send some out when we did our swap but you might not have got one, sorry. I've been cutting it in silver wrapping paper and glitter card but it is tricky, cuts better in white card stock and I might try glitter heat embossing it next. I can cut you one if you'd like - failing that it is a TL die from a certain shopping channel but you can buy it from most places now. Google Tattered Lace Loving Flourish Die. Its code is TLD0452 if that helps.
Thanks scrapmate, that's exactly what I was aiming for and then the delicate leaves trailing in the corners, it just need that extra something or it looked to bare.
I will have to look at wrapping paper in silver Susie I bought some silver paper but it wasnt as silver as would like remember your peace on Earth that was a real silver silver
I turn my back for a minute and you too are enabling again :lol:
Susie that card is just gorgeous, as everyone says, blue and silver are good together, they complement each other well
I think you sent me that die cut, After seeing your card I might card lift and use the diecut for an anniversary card for DS and DIL x
Thanks Alison and that's a great idea, lift away. I knew someone had received that die cut, I think a few did but couldn't remember who.
By the way Alison, I was the innocent party this time they asked me about the die, so I'm pleading not guilty M'Lud.:lol:
:lol:
:lol:
Susie you sent me the Love die, but not the with Love.
Ellie
Sorry Ellie, is that a hint?:lol:
I had the Love die not the 'with love'..I thought it was a stamp and you’d heat embossed it! It’s beautiful
Elaine, I don't even remember what I sent anymore, any chance of a photo when you find time. I've just gone through the photo's I posted at the time and there are three dies which mention Love if you look closely. The TL flourish with love cut out on the right.

I got the thicker LOVE , top of the two Dies on the left .
It’s very nice and would be good to heat emboss, when I get round to buying some
ink and powder , oh and a heat gun !! :lol:
Ellie
They all help Ellie:lol: and you'll really enjoy it once you get started. Was it the one above Believe that you got? I was surprised that no-one seemed interested in the flourish With Love but maybe because it was cut in white and off to one side, it wasn't as noticeable.
I mixed all mine up Susie so I can’t photograph. I have my die cuts 'filed' with themes etc so I can’t say exactly what you cut for me and what others did. I had the tattered lace 'With Love' I do know though. I suspect I didn’t ask for it because it looks quite big and I tend to make smaller cards..it’s only because we've all seen how well you used it that we now all covet it! There is no need to send it though. You’re too too naughty! I know what you’re like! Generous to a fault!
Yes that’s the one you sent Susie. You are right, I didn’t notice the with love even this time,
until I had a good look!
Elaine is correct , you are very generous.
Ellie
You're very sweet ladies but you know the offer is there if you want to give it a go.
So kind of you. X
Can see photos now internet must be better its when the signal weak I cant
A bit of texture on this one, with raised elements and sparkle.

That is such a fun card Ellie. What is your stamped image, it reminds me a bit of the Woodentops?
Yes they do look a bit like them. I can’t remember the make make.
I think it was DoCrafts. It’s a set which I’ve had for years.
Ellie
Nice when you've had something for a while and you suddenly find a use for it. They remind me of my old Pelham Puppet which is a schoolmaster with mortar board.
Lots of texture lovely Ellie
Here’s a new embossing folder I bought the other day.
I won’t be sending it to anyone, I just had a play to see what it was like.
EllieAttachment 198546
I very loosely added sparkle.
Very pretty Ellie and a nice clean, fresh card, love the colours. Handy to have it in for when you suddenly realise you need a card. I like the texture in the background card, was that all part of the same embossing folder?
Its really lovely Ellie I like the sparkle too blue seems to be your fav crafting colour at the mo
Susie, I used linen card, but the texture is in the embossing folder.
It’s a Sheena one, called blowing in the wind.
Denise, you sussed me :lol: Blue is my favourite colour, any tone of blue.
Ellie
I do love linen card, it looks so elegant.
