Anniversary {recipe card}

It's a little inside funny to me that the current stamp tv free for all challenge is a recipe ( you have to follow the recipe for the card, and the card i needed to get done most when I was reading about it was for my grandparents upcoming 61st. Because, my gma has spent her whole life cooking ( maybe most people's have but, she really enjoys collecting recipes and cook books and such) and shes' started cooking again. ( she had an drain tube installed from her brain to her stomach lining last fall and has been busy recovering all winter) I think the last time they adjusted how much flow there is really made a difference and so its fun to see her being happy again. The recipe for this challenge is 2 embellishments, 3 images (sentiment does not count) 4 colors & 5 or more layers. and after I started this card i realized i have no idea how layers are counted. but, they haven't un-tagged this card in the gallery as of yet so I'm assuming I got 5 in. This card measures 5X7 in real life, the base is made from GKD ocean mist, the pp layer above that is from the MME stella rose hattie pad, the martha stewart doily was color dusted with some ranger distress inks in old paper and broken china, the Kraft tag panel is up on pop dots and matted with some gold metallic vellum. the Doily, (small flower at top of tag) are from the GK set called nana needlework, the floral stitch line is from the GK set in stitches, these are all heat embossed with ranger seafoam white powder. the sentiments from the first lovely labels set and stamped with colorbox fluid chalk ink creamy brown, its die cut with an spellbinders grommet tag and matted with chocolate brown cs cut by hand. the two embellishments are an vintage button and vintage lace. ( hoping the hemp string is like sewing threads or pop dots haha) :)
