Today is our 48th Wedding Anniversary! I did get married very young 😊. Today is also my first official DT post on the Swedish House Crafts blog. This is the card I made for hubby. I try to do something completely different each year and this year I was inspired by our love of denim, music and flowers. The female image reminds me of one of my favourite 70's fashions when I wore a white petticoat with a broderie anglais trim showing underneath a skirt. Mind you mine were a lot longer than the ones in the image.
I wanted to show how you can used 6x6 papers on a larger card by creating a patchwork effect. I used Maja Denim and girls 6x6 papers. There are several of these papers which suit male cards too. The images are from Maja snapshots guys in jeans and Maja Denim and girls - girls in jeans. I also used a heart banner die, some wooden stars and lace.

Happy Anniversary to you both. Obviously a very young teenage bride!!! A great card for Graham. I remember the skirts with the lace trim. I made my own clothes in those days, so had quite a lot of them. Have an enjoyable celebration. Hugs, Carol S.xx
