Anniversary card and baggie

It's my hubby's parents' wedding anniversary today, so despite hubby's procrastinations that 'he doesn't celebrate anniversaries' I've made them a card and decorated a matching baggie (the bag is mainly because I fancied stamping on fabric again).

The 'out-laws' are also staying with us this weekend, so we're taking them to a restaurant right on the seafront that does yummy Sunday lunches.  I will probably regret it about 3pm, when I'm feeling complete stuffed and ready for an afternoon snooze!

Anyhoo, back to today's project.  I've used a Lili of the Valley image that I just adore using for anniversaries, and my lovely new Papermania papers, which I am completely obsessed with at the moment.

Here's the card ...



And here's the baggie .....



The baggie is quite large.  The card is 15cm square and easily fits inside with room to spare.  You can see them together for their respective sizes here .....




I really love that the card is quite clean and crisp looking, but the baggie is quite soft and muted.
