The Celebrations continue...for the couple who are celebrating their 50th Anniversary, and for me...
The above card I made for my sister to give to a friend of hers who is celebrating their 50th Wedding Anniversary. I struggled to get this card done in time, she was picking me up today to go to lunch. My Mother's best friend was taking us out to lunch to celebrate our birthdays (which were last month) This was my fourth outing to celebrate my birthday!
When my sister arrived at my home, I was still putting the above card together, so she actually watched me glue on the flowers, etc. So I never had the time to take a photograph of this card, I just scanned it in to my computer. Its' another box card...(Yes, I know I make a lot of these, but they are liked because they are a nice card to put money or gift cards inside. I used my Anna Griffin rose embossing folder, and Spellbinder dies (Decorative Labels Eight) Prima flower, and a die from Memory box. Whimsy Circle...
Up until a few days ago, I only had two Memory box dies...then to my great surprise I won these lovely Stencils and dies from commenting on Bibiana's Blog. Here is a link to her fabulous blog...

This happened about the time of my birthday, so I felt like they were another birthday present when they showed up in my mailbox. Aren't they pretty? I've been playing with them but I haven't had time to complete a card yet...
