Adorable Anniversary Wish for Deary!

Assalamualaikum and Good Day,

Congratulations to all married couple in the world, especially for those who's celebrating anniversary!

This is another trishutter card that I made last month, a PINK PURPLE theme card, with mixed flowers this time. Unlike handmade paper flowers, artificial flowers are sold everywhere and they're a bit more easy to handle. So it is LESS SPECIAL than a paper-made flowers, I guess.

Alhamdulillah, this is actually my FIRST try on 'bigger' paper roses. YES, they're bigger than paper roses I've made before. It took almost 5 months for me to study on these paper roses. I start with asking people, watching videos, read, staring at those pictures of high class paper roses, plus a lot of imagination, yes! It takes a lot of TIME and EFFORT.

Even when I finally found the right ways on how to make it real, still, the rose is just too tricky for me to start. It's a TRICKY rose, but yet very PRETTY and I love it. So I fall for it again. They are not yet perfect but I believe that imperfection makes them special. "Perfection is BORING" by the way (^,~)

These sweet couple in the pictures are my friend, Lily and her husband. They had their 2nd anniversary last month and they're expecting for their first child now. Bundle of JOY is on the way (^__^)

I really like the center part of the card. The idea of placing a blank card there was to give nice space for her to write speech or love notes for her husband. I used Belinda's Border stamp set from Lawn Fawn to create the love lines at the bottom of the card. I also use the same love lines for the other section of the card, to relate and to balance well.

"Love does not consist in gazing at each other,

but in looking outward together in the same direction"

I used several pictures of them to match up with the card and decorations, but I can't really decide which one fits best, since I really want my lovely blank card to stick onto the center, plus, all those pictures are really nice. So I think it's best to let my friend do her part of choosing which suits them best (^___^)
