LOVE the background you made, Penny – absolutely perfect anniversary card, so very elegant! Thanks so much for sharing it with us at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge!
Penny, these are so elegant. Love them 🙂
Wow, the marbled background is just beautiful! So much easier than the old shaving foam technique. I’m going to have to give it a try. Love the combination of textures too. Very pretty card!
Both of the cards are absolutely lovely!
Both beautiful projects, love the marbling effect on the first one!
Stunning and so elegant! Love using the gold Delicata ink. so can’t wait to try out the silver 🙂
Beautiful projects! Love how the background turned out on the first card. And the second card is a beautiful design, love the hearts and the tip to get the cardstock to match. Thanks for sharing.
