I love this Some Odd Girl image - its perfect for this Anniversary card. I was asked to make this by a friend at work as a special anniversary card for his wife to celebrate there 10 years together. He wanted a Russian theme as that is where they met - the only other detail I got out of him was that his wife like Verve Clique Champagne (Don't we all?!) So I added a 2005 Vintage bottle of Champers!
The image of St Basil's was a free image from the Internet which I coloured with Promarkers - as were the digi image from SOG. The colours used are -
Skin - Spice, Coral, Soft Peach, Blush & Antique White.
His Hair - Warm Greys.
Jeans -Twilight Sky, Demin, Cornflower, Glacier blue.
Shirt - Cardinal Red, Ruby, Poppy, Red.
Her Hair - Nutmeg, Burnt Umber, Rosewood, Burgandy, Warm Greys
Top - Oatmeal, Gold, Bright Orange
Skirt & Shorts - Cool Greys
The Building is coloured using Light fawn, Nutmeg and Terracotta.
The greens are - Emerald, Green & Meadow Green the blue is True blue, Sea Blue and Polar blue.
The golds and red are the same of the clothing.
The background paper is from Mambi and I love the pearl effect the paper has - it shimmers beautifully! I added Peel off wording and Black glittery letters from Hobbycraft for "WIFE". The ribbon is from American crafts collection and I also added a diamante frill (Diamonds are the gem traditionally given as a gift for 10 year anniversaries apparently along with Tin ... Know which I'd prefer!!)
