I started by dry embossing a Whisper White CS panel in the Brick Wall embossing folder and mounted it on a layer of Dashing Along DSP. Using the two largest Stitched Shapes ovals I die cut them out of Cherry Cobbler and Whisper White CS. I also die cut the flowers, leaves and numbers out of Shimmery White, Cherry Cobbler and Pistachio Pudding CS. I put the flowers together then dry fit everything to see where the ribbon and sentiment needed to go, attached the ribbon and stamped the sentiment. I adhered the front panel to a Whisper White card base, assembled and adhered the sentiment panel and positioned the leaves and flowers. The smaller flower is on a dimensional and the centers of the little Cherry Cobbler flowers are the punch outs from my 1/8" hole punch. To add some sparkle I used Dazzling Details in Cherry Cobbler on the numbers and the centers of the big flowers, and Silver Sparkle on the centers of the little flowers. I let them dry and reapplied the Dazzling Details to give them more dimension and better coverage.

Eunice, this is fabulous. I love your layering of papers and textures. The little silver centres to the small flowers are so sweet and such a lovely finishing detail on this special occasion card. Each detail adds to the whole and not a thing out of place! Thank you for joining in with us at As You See It for our 200th challenge. It's always a pleasure when you join us.

Gorgeous card, Eunice! You've chosen such beautiful diecuts and accessories for a 40th wedding anniversary. Lucky the couple who receives this. The colour palette you've used is beautiful and I especially like that ribbon! Thanks for helping us celebrate our 200th challenge here at As You See It Challenges!
