Classic and Simple Anniversary Card | CraftyPaws

It’s been a rough couple of weeks with lots of things going on in my work life, dealing with a litigation for my family, and my health failing me (still not sure what is going on there, but I’m going in for more tests next week), and I just haven’t had much time for crafting. However, given that September 6th yis my 10th anniversary, I wanted to take a little time to use my new Birch Press Designs Dazzle Layering Die Set to make a super quick but spectacular card for Mr. CraftyPaws. Yes, these dies are a bit pricey (currently $72), but because the results are so amazing and they are so versatile (you can use single or multiple layers, parts, etc.), I think they are well worth the money.

As my hubby and I both love the color blue, I thought it would be fun to use shiny, sparkly card stock in silvers and blues. The base is a sparkly blue from DCWV The Glitter Cardstock Stack Classics (sorry the pictures don’t do this justice). The next layer up (Layer C) was cut from a blue-green silver, the middle layer (Layer B) was cut from a light blue silver, and the top layer (Layer A) was cut from a pure silver cardstock. These foiled cardstocks were from the 6 x 6 DCWV Foiled Cardstock Stack and the 6 x 6 Recollections Christmas Foils Paper Pad. Then for the center pinked circle opening, I die cut “10” from an old numbers die set (sorry I don’t know the brand) using more of the pure silver foil cardstock; I actually stacked 5 of them to better stand out from the Dazzle layers. HINT: Gluing all these layers together, especially the top most intricate layer was made easy by using my favorite wet glue: Art Glitter Glue with a Fine Nozzle Tip.

That was it! I think this may have been one of the fastest cards I’ve ever made, but I love how clean and dynamic it is! Click the following picture to watch the process video of making this anniversary card:
