Silver Wedding Card

A silver wedding card I made recently. The idea for the card went through many stages before I eventually settled on this version.

-

 [Image ID 1] A decorative silvery oval frame with leaf designs down the right side, in the centre of it is the number 25 which is also silver. Behind the frame is a marbled grey background with blue and white sequins sitting at the bottom. When the card is shaken the sequins will move around behind the oval frame.[description end]

I shared a video of the shaker in a post on Instagram, that post and video can be found here

 [Image ID 2] The central section sticks out like the point of a letter V, it has an aperture cut into the middle of the pop out revealing a light blue background behind. A die cut in the shape of a man and a woman stood under an umbrella is attached to the left side, partially covering the aperture. On either side of the pop out section there are swirling silver leaf designs.[description end]

I had to make a box-style envelope for it as the internal pop-up stops the card closing flat enough for a regular envelope.
