The teapotters are sending 50th Anniversary cards to the Netherlands to Anita's aunt and uncle. Polly is the hostess and she chose pairs for the challenge. Mine is two hearts. Diecut two hearts and embossed them, then ran ink lightly over the raised parts. Doubled them up and popped on with dimensionals. Heat embossed my sentiment and used an ornate frames die, also cut one in gold foil to back it, leaving in some gold to show through the white. Popped up with dimensionals as well. The stitched rectangle panel is the inside of an envelope from a Papyrus card which was too beautiful to throw away. Also for the Alpha challenge R for repeat.

Loving that so many people have gone gold for this, it makes for such an elegant look. The gold ribbon is a fab detail, and I like the two hearts side by side.

Gorgeous! All your elements are stunning in gold and white, but I especially like that elegant die cut frame and the way you backed it with gold foil. Nice touch. Fabulous card to celebrate a fabulous day.

What a beauty, Shirl! Looks like white and gold cloisonne, to me. Those small flowers go so well with the larger ones. Love is in bloom and love is all around. Fav'd.

Very pretty 50th anniversary card, love all the details. I especially like how you embossed the two hearts and then inked the tops- an idea I am filing away for future use, so thanks!!

Love how you've used this wonderful DP as your background and tied your sweet hearts to its design. The satin ribbon is the perfect host for your cute hearts!
