Silver Anniversary *TSTR # 165 Totally Textured*

Good Morning my scrappy friends! Today, I want to share with you a card that I made for 

The Shabby Tea Room #165 "Totally Textured"  I was so honored by Debbie to Guest Design for this week using the inspirational photo below. We were also to add dry embossing and stitching. I used grey cardstock and embossed it with my favorite embossing folder. The stitching is faux using a white signo marker....someday I hope to learn how to sew... :)

The theme for my card is Silver Anniversary. I chose it because my 25th anniversary is coming up this July 25....wow! Did time go or what! My husband and I are planning a trip in July....we have a couple places in mind...still thinking on where we want to go for sure though. 

Lots of layers like all the blankets in the photo. I also added two different laces and silver pearls throughout. The tiny roses, doilies and white leaves are from Cheery Lynn. All the chipboard pieces are from Donna Salazar. I decided to leave them plain to resemble the wicker basket in the photo. The larger roses are from prima...I just happened to have exactly two grey ones...perfect!

The stripped paper is from Donna Salazar's paper collection. I loved that it was grey and had the stripes to match the blanket right in the center, which was my focus for the color theme. 

Here is the wonderful photo that helped me create this Silver Anniversary card today. Thank you!

Well, thanks for stopping by and I cant wait till my 25th anniversary on the 25th of July...

wait isn't that like a golden birthday too? lol

Have a great day! 

Hugs...xoxo
