TODAY IS OUR 27th WEDDING ANNIVERSARY & ANDY's 50th BIRTHDAY!

On a blustery September 22nd 1984 at 2.30pm, at St John the Baptist Church in Alresford, Hampshire I married my husband Andy, on his 24th birthday. I have made a double layout of the day, I made it last year before I had my blog but on this our 27th wedding anniversary & his 51st birthday I'd like to share these layouts with you.


               An unashamedly ornate and romantic layout of our wedding day in 1984
12 x 12 PM gold foiled cardstock, layered photos, Making memories mottos, heart gems, heart brad and red adhesive pearls.


`Our Going Away OutFits`, an unashamedly romantic LO

backing paper is 12 x 12 chocolate coloured engineering design
photo and journalling matted and layered on blue and red paper
2 red gems are the circles, on Anita`s silver peel-off flourishes
3 tiny PM red flower brads attach 2 Posies sentiment tags to the LO
2 red PM heart brads and a 3D embellishment on another layered matt.
a donated blue flourish over the photo
LO also embellished with silver flowers from Anita`s peel-offs, adhesive heart gems and felt hearts.

Here are the cards I made for Andy for today
A Country Companions  anniversary card embellished with red heart gems & glittered paper ribbon.


Andy is mad on bike's and has a Honda VFR750 red sports bike, so I thought this decoupage would be perfect, I embellished the card with blue holographic card, printed sentiments & peel-off letters. The backing paper is from the Forever Friends 'The Good Life' Retro Paper Collection.
Happy 27th anniversary and happy 51st Andy, you are the love of my life, so supportive and hard-working and I hope we have many, many more happy years of marriage to look forward to, Fi xx
