Anniversary card

PatRobin2010sml
Having read the October issue of the Craft Stamper magazine I was reminded of a technique I’ve used before so I used it here for an anniversary card.  Joanne Wardle used similar colours but I have used them vertically instead of horizontally so it is not meant to be a sunset just Autumnal colours.  Although I love trying out new techniques it is nice to re-visit some older ones.

Inks:  Distress inks Barn door and Mustard seed, Memento black
Card:  white silk
Stamps:  Stampin up Cheers and wishes, and Autumn days, swirl
Other:  post it notes to mask

The lorgnettes are made to look like the number 100 and ‘a hunner’ is Scots for ‘one hundred’. The prize is a couple of templates kindly donated by WS Designs. (the telephone box and DL envelope templates). Thank you everyone who voted for my card.
