Anniversary Set Commission (Card & Box/ Wall hanger & Bag)

Hi there & today I'd like to shoe you a recent commission from a customer who wanted an Anniversay Card & Box Set, and somthing special as a keepsake, so I suggested a wall hanger to match. I stuck to a traditional pastel colour scheme with lovely papers by K&Co. & tried to give it plenty of contemporary touches, here's the end result...

...I made a 6x6" card from white Bazzil cardstock & puched the rdges with Martha Stewart French Scroll PATP punch, here's a closer look...

...I used a Tim Holtz ornate book plate for the center which has been hand coloured by me (Will be doing a tutorial on them soon, in the mean time look out for my article in Simply Cards & Papercrafts!) I then added the 'Congrats' sentiment in mini-alphas onto coreogated card...

...The stunning large pale blue roses & most other flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts, paired with Magnolia Doo Hickey 'Heart Swirl Branch' die...


...And here's the Wall-hanger. I cut an MDF base (approx 8.5x6") using a jigsaw from 6ml MDF & sanded the edges. I then sprayed with White Primer & coated with 2 coats of blue acrylic paint, before distressing with a craft knife to create an old wood-look/ peeled paint type effect. I then attsached some fastners with tiny screws & tied ric-rac through to hang...

...The pretty sentiment is from a HOTP CD-rom & has been edged with gorgeous Pink Paisly decorative circle. Again most of the flowers including the large blue stunner are from WOC. The  birdy is a Tim, Holtz die made from grungeboard & Bazzil card-stock...

...Below shows a hand-made glass pebble on a shabby seam-binding bow...

...And lastly here's the matching bag, with name tag...
