Golden~


Signed, Sealed and Delivered....I'm Yours!
Anniversary party invites for the 50th Anniversary of my mom and dad went in the mail yesterday!
Layout from below (GKD Giving Tree preview) is perfect for a photo image card.

I selected one of my favorites from their wedding album, converted it to sepia from black and white, and used it as the focal point for the invitation.
A brushed gold embossed strip, ivory ribbon and an heat embossed gold 50th medallion are all this invite needed. Any thing else would have detracted from the joy in their faces looking towards their future together!

Now time to start scanning old photos to create a slide show!

Love you, Mom and Dad!
