There is a kit avThis is an Anniversary Card for my youngest son Steve and my daughter in law Julia. When they married, I made their wedding invitations. They were very dramatic in black with Gold Embossing. So I try to keep the theme alive with their anniversary cards. This amazing dye was just the trick, using the Distressed Gold Specialty Paper and black cardstock, I had a little difficulty with the die. One of you wrote in and reminded me about using waxed paper between the die and the paper. THANK YOU! Somehow I had forgotten that trick I have very easily now cut a bunch of this die and with the waxed paper, it was a piece of cake.
I wanted to keep the card simple beyond the die, so the sentiment is very small, and there is minimal decoration on the inside.
Here is a look at the inside of the card with two options for decorations.
The first is just the flower and the second is an approximately 2″ by 2″ cut with the die and backed in black like the front of the card, both added to a Very Vanilla panel. I think a third option would be to cut out the flower and add a small circle of black underneath to show through the cutouts in the flower.

One more from By the Bay, with no birds! I really do love this set and could easily spend a lot of time designing from this set. I love the simplicity of this card. I was wrong in the video the Pearlized Enamel Effect are still Current, YAY, and I do love the way it looks. This is a simple and fast card. The only thing is, I want to make more copies but there is a limited number of sheets of the DSP. I will have to figure out what kind of backing will work in its place. I suppose, I could cut the DSP smaller to just go on the top and bottom of the focal piece. That would give me a few more cards. If I come up with a solution I will add to this post later.
Measurements and supplies for today’s By the Bay Thanks, Pearl Card:
Thick Very Vanilla cardstock for the card bases cut 8 ½” by 5 ½”, scored and folded at 4 ¼”, a second piece cut 2 ¾” by 3 ¾” for the focal piece on the front of the card.
Sahara Sand 2 pieces, the first cut 4” by 5 ¼” for layering on the inside of the card, the second cut 3” by 4” to mat the focal piece on the front of the card.
From By the Bay DSP cut 2 pieces 1 is 4” by 5 ¼” for the front of the card and the second ¾” by 5 ¼” for the inside of the card.
