True Love Stories Last Forever

I am in love with the new Elegantly Said bundle.  The entire stamp set is so elegant as are all the other parts of the suite.  So, I decided to start with a card that is pretty basic but does a great job of showing off just how elegant this set can be.      

Here is what I came up with…


I used basic black and white with just a little pop of gold to make an elegant anniversary card.  The card base is Basic White cardstock that is cut 5 ½ x 8 ½”, scored at 4 ¼”.  The second layer is Basic Black cardstock cut to 5 ¼ x 4”.  I then cut a third layer of Basic White cardstock that measures 5 x 3 ¾”.  I stamped my images using two of the stamps from the Elegantly Said Bundle onto the white layer using Tuxedo Black Memento ink (I love how crisp an image I get when using memento ink).  I stamped the scroll work in the top left and bottom right corners and then added the florals next to them (I did allow the florals to stamp off the sides of the layer).  I adhered layers two and three together and then added them to the Basic White cardstock base using Dimensionals.

I then stamped my sentiment “True Love Stories Last Forever” onto a piece of Basic White cardstock that measured 7/8 x 3” again using the Tuxedo Black Memento ink.  I mounted the sentiment layer onto a piece of Gold Foil that measures 1 1/8 x 3”.  I placed that diagonally across the front of the card using Dimensionals.  For my final touch I added three of the Gilded Gems, two larger ones in the center of each of the scroll works and one of the smaller ones on the sentiment layer. 

As you can see this is a pretty straight forward card that uses just paper, ink and a little gem embellishment.  I hope you enjoy this card I certainly enjoyed making it.  As always you can find the supplies to create this card and much more on my website at https://craftwithronnie.stampinup.net or by click the shopping button at the top of this blog or the link to the supplies listed below.
