True Love Sparkles & shines - An Anniversary Card - The Friday Mashup #18

I'm happy to make some Anniversary cards as my own stash is getting low, and I have 2 big craft shows coming up.  This card is for the Friday Mashup challenge here - which is to make an Anniversary Card.

Stamp: Teeny Tiny Wishes
Inks: Basic Black, Wisteria Wonder
Papers: Wisteria Wonder, Whisper White, Flirtatious designer paper, Elegant Eggplant
Accessories: Victoria crochet trim, rhinestones, Daisy #2 die, Large whisper white brad, dazzling diamonds, Oval punch, dimensionals, Doily from Flirtatious series paper. Mat pack and paper piercer

I will make an envelope box for this card as it will not fit in a standard envelope.




 I made the box envelope for the anniversary card.  For directions see original post http://craftymariasstampingworld.blogspot.com/2011/06/box-envelopes-for-bulky-or-3d-cards.html








This shows the card ready to go into the box envelope.
Note:  This box cannot go in the mail, so has to be hand delivered.

That flower is gorgeous.. I love the color combo you used! What a great idea to build your stash back up.. Make sure you show us how you make the box for it instead of an envelope sounds interesting. Thanks for joining us at the Friday Mashup this week.
