Celebrare 60 years of engagement

Hello and welcome, 

Today I want to share a card that I made for my Dear parents who have been engaged for 60 years the last of April. 🎉🌟❤️. Next year they celebrate 60 years of marriage).

I have used Tim Holtz products for this card.

I started to cut a piece of designpaper from an old cherished stack - French industrial. I used some crackle paste through the THS017 Hearts layering stencil. Let air dry. Then I scribbled a Distress watercolor pencil on the hearts, then used a wet paintbrush to spread the color in to the cracks. 

Then I used texture paste opaque through the THS033 Valentine stencil and quickly added some Walnut stain embossing glaze on the paste. Let air dry, when dry I used my embossing tool and heated the glaze. 

I also stamped some images from the CMS396 Field notes stamps with Scorched timber DI. Inked the edges with the same DI and stitched around the edges with my sewing machine. 

Time for the rosette 666567, I cut the pieces from the same paper as mentioned above. Inked the edges with Scorched timber DI. For the circle in the middle of the rosette I used CMS460 Tiny prints in the background and the small flowers are from Field notes. Then I stamped the quote from CMS463 Quote notes with Scorched timber DI and added clear embossing powder. Heated. Inked the edges on the circle. 

Then I cut 60 from Ideaology Kraftstock, inked the edges. I adhered the 60 with 3D foam.

Before adhereing the rosette I glued some Mica tiles behind the rosette. Added two Hex fasteners, a big in the lower left corner and a small one in the upper right corner.

Here you can see the shine from the Mica tiles. 

I cut a piece of Ideaology Kraftstock, sanded and inked the edges and adhered the card to. Then I made a card blank from a piece of older sanded Ideaology Kraftstock. 3D foam between all layers for dimension. After I took these photos above, I decided to add some small hearts.

I cut three small hearts from sanded Ideaology Kraftstock with 660953 Crazy things, and added to my card.
