and then realised after I'd made it that on the congratulations paper there were champagne glasses and I'm not sure whether the recipients might be tt and so it might be inappropriate.
So I thought I'd just make another one and that one could go in my general stock (and perhaps someone else tomorrow will need a Diamond wedding card - you never know!). The only trouble was that I wanted to use the same diamonte letters and found that I only had one 'D' left (even though I had three packets originally - 'D' had been in demand!) So I improvised and used the stem part of an 'L' with an upside-down 'C' - I think it worked:
Because of glare from flash, I had to scan rather than take photos (and there won't be time in the morning) - the '60' is silver, of course, irl, not black! The 'sticky up bits' have cast shadows on the surrounding papers, but you can get the general idea.

ReplyDeleteBoth are pretty cards Hazel. The 'd' is very well done!! Isn't it always the way that the letter you want has gone.
ReplyDeleteHope the card sale went well today.
How clever are you Mrs altering that letter???!!
ReplyDeleteLove them both, and esp cos of all that bling lol!
Great diamond cards. I had a similar dilemma yesterday with letters: I opened a new packet of swirly chipboard letters but they are so elaborate I couldn't make out which was the "s." I must have spent an hour combing through them and had to give up in the end! The things we go through....
