Celebrations

Hi everyone, gorgeous clear sunny day here in London but a cool breeze for the last day of summer:(
We are out this evening to celebrate my friends Ruby wedding anniversary with dinner and
dancing:D/ should be a great event.
I was inspired by a card on Jan's blog and copied her tutorial to create mine, come and see:


I created it to be from us and two other couples who, together with the celebrants have been friends for 35 years.



And this is the envelope

One of my friend's daughters got engaged  in March and the other one last weekend so that called for another card.


I made a Z fold pearlised card and the rest is embossing and dies and I will be able to give it to Kate this evening. 

Thanks for visiting and I hope you are having a good weekend :)

    Two stunners, Val! I love them both - very elegant and classy. It has been a teeny bit chilly here today. Fine but quite cloudy at times, and a hint of autumn in the air

    Great card for Jim and Jean and also for Kate's engagement. I'm sure they loved them and bet you had a great evening. What is the black oval flourish around the sentiment on Jim & Jean's card? You haven't mentioned what you used.
