40th Anniversary Love You Much

Hi Stampers,

Here's a card I made for our friends.  They are celebrating their 40th (Ruby) anniversary this weekend.  I used the stamp set, Love You Much, by Stampin' Up!  The card base is Whisper White card stock.  I did not have an appropriate sentiment for the inside, so I printed one (after much trial and error) to the inside of the card base. 

The next layer is Basic Gray card stock onto which is layered Whisper White that has been embossed with the Big Shot and the Small Dot Texture plate.  This has been wrapped with the Whisper White Organza ribbon.

The focal image was colored using Basic Black and Real Red Stampin' Write markers.  I used the Stamp-a-ma-jig right from the start because I only wanted to do this one time.  Their hats are made using the 1/4" square punch for him in Basic Gray and the 1/4" circle punch for her in the Real Red.  Brims for both were hand cut.  I added a tiny spot of Blush Blossom to the bride's cheek.

The greeting is from the retired Hugs & Wishes and was stamped in Basic Gray Classic ink also using the Stamp-a-ma-jig. 

This was layered onto Basic Gray card stock and wrapped with the Whisper White Organza ribbon.  I punched two overlapping holes in each corner using the 1/16" circle punch and added the smallest Fire Circle Rhinestone brads. 

Stampin' Dimensionals were used to attach the layers to the card base.
