A simple anniversary card

I made this anniversary card for my husband earlier this month. He's not easy to make cards for, but he does like art nouveau designs, so this Cosmo Cricket Everafter paper and borders seemed just the thing.


The card only took about 15 minutes to make - that must be a record for me!! I thought the blue, brown and orange colour combination was really unusual, but it worked somehow. The dots are Craftwork Cards card candy, which I like to use sometimes instead of brads because as they have no "legs" they don't cause that lumpy finish you sometimes get otherwise.

    Wish it only took me 15mins to come up with something this lovely!
