Medallion card for 50th Anniv.






As I was blog surfing the other night-early morning I found a Fabulous Blog & I am now listing it in my favorites http://tennesseejoy.wordpress.com/ Please check it out! I went through all the pages of her blog & was especially wowzerd at a medallion card she made with a stamp from a company I had never heard of "Holly Berry House." I googled it & found their site. I wanted one of their medallion stamps Like right now! I wound up buying one on E-Bay & got it within a cpl days-Yea! The card I created is for a 50th wedding anniversary for a family that I have been friends with for 20 yrs. The medallion is stamped twice & embossed in gold on cream c/s.

Then stamped onto gold ppr twice & embossed in gold. Then you carefully cut out the different layers, stack them, & add pop dots between layers. I am very pleased with how it came out & hope that my friends enjoy the card.

As a requirement for accepting Alfred's award I need to list 5 things that make me happy....

1) Blog surfing-I love finding new ideas & there are sooo many great ones out there!
2) Finding great bargains
3) When I create something & it turns out better than I hoped it would
4) Reece's candy (chocolate & peanut butter is a little piece of heaven)
5) Making someone else happy, makes me happy!

I am working on my list of who I will pass this award on to.
