Navy & gold anniversary


It's been ages since I've had time to make any cards.
Hopefully I can spend more time in the craft room soon as it's nearly school holidays again!

I love this month's inspiration pic at  Scrapbook Boutique and thought it would be the perfect colours for an anniversary card that I've been asked to make.
Enter Our Challenge - starts 10th each month

I'm also linking up to the challenge at Simon Says Stamp Wednesday where the theme is to use your favourite technique or product.
One of my favourite techniques is fussy cutting stamped images, and one of my fave products at the moment are these gold watercolour paints.

At Addicted to Stamps & More they are celebrating their 3rd birthday with a Clean & Simple challenge. Congratulations Kylie!

Supplies:
Stampers Anonymous flower garden stamp: gold versacolor ink & gold ep; vellum; Finetec gold watercolour paint; onyx liquid pearls; Distressed stripes embossing folder; Memory Box fresh foliage die; distress inks; MFT tag dies; sentiment sticker.

Thanks for visiting,
Cathy x

Wonderful card, and as you say great colours Cathy, where did you get your finetec gold from, it is superb, a quick google search only showed it up in U.S.
Thanks so much for inspiring us,
Hugs Shaz in Oz.x
