25 years ago...

Next week, my girlfriend celebrates her 25th wedding anniversary.  I stood up in her wedding and I can't believe it has been 25 years.  Back then I created a shadow box using her wedding invite.  A miniature wedding photo is in the frame on the table.



So for their 25th anniversary, I created a frame using the CTMH bracket frame.  I CAS'd the design from the CTMH catalog (Spring/Summer 2013) but used green and peach as accent colors, the colors of my friend's wedding.  I'm quite please on how it turned out.  A great big thank you to my CTMH consultant, Morgan Vogt, for her help and design advise!



Supplies used:

CTMH Bracket Frame
CTMH Cricut Cartridges (Artiste, Art Philosophy, Artbooking)
CTMH For Always Paper Pack (retired)
CTMH Black & Grey Glitter Paper
CTMH Silver Shimmer Trim
CTMH D1506 Family Love Stamp Set

Dynamic Duos #86 {Subtly Yours in soft Aqua & Pink}

I wanted to try using one of the inset dies that I have so I used the small one.  Here is my photo:


The paper I used is from Hobby Lobby, both the pink and blue are a shimmer paper.  The stamp and sentiment are from Stampin' up.  The ribbon is generic pink ribbon.
