Anniversary Wishes

Happy Friday!!  It's time for another challenge from Jo's Scrap Shack.  As always, we are now an Anything Goes challenge and our sponsor for this week is Little Blue Button Stamps. 

Here is the card I created for your inspiration:
My husband's aunt and uncle are celebrating their 25th wedding anniversary this weekend.  I wanted something soft and elegant and not too girly.  I think the blue and gray are just enough contrast to the pink to keep it from being too feminine.  So many great details here: mulberry paper, stitched dies, pearls and a bit of ribbon that was in my bits and pieces stash.

What do you need to do to enter?
Challenge Rules

5.  You may link up to other challenges but be sure to link back to Jo's Scrap Shack and to the challenge post you are entering.

*All entries that do not meet the challenge requirements WILL NOT be eligible for the top 3, any sponsor wins or any random wins by Jo.

Supplies:
Stamps: Little Blue Button Stamps "Magnolia" digi; Papertrey Ink "Damask Designs" sentiment
Dies: Spellbinders "A2 Matting Basics A" rectangle; MFT "Stitched Scalloped Trio"; PTI border die

Dies:
As You Like It--Flowers or Ribbon and Why? (I love using flower images on my cards, but for embellishments I prefer ribbon.  It can be used on cards for pretty much any occasion, comes in unlimited colors and can add embellishing without adding bulk.  Plus, it's much cheaper than purchased flowers and much easier than making your own!)
