Silver Wedding

I've made this card for my Sister and Brother-in-law. Its their Silver Wedding next week.
Took a while for inspiration but looking through my craft room I found a pack of Wedding diecuts made by Generations. I decided to base my card around the silhouette of a man and woman enclosed in a heart.
First I embossed the diecut with silver embossing powder and then backed it onto a piece of light grey vellum. Using an 8x8 card blank I covered it with silver card from my stash and then the main background paper is by Dovecraft - Wedding. I found a gorgeous silver and white rose decoupage which i added in the left bottom corner and a lovely piece of white lace. The vellum quote seemed to link the whole card together and I finished it off with silver and grey flowers and an entwined silver heart brad from Accent Depot.
