LDRS Creative | 5 Minute Anniversary Card Idea

Tomorrow is my 14th wedding anniversary, so I wanted to create a special handmade card for my partner - something heartfelt, modern, and quick to make. I reached for the LDRS Creative About LOVE Collage 4x6 Stamps and paired them with the Stepped Edge Die to create this easy freeform collage-style design.

Instead of using the Stepped Edge Die along the edge of a card like usual, I die cut it down the right side of a white panel to create an unexpected layered detail. From there, I started building my collage design on the left side of the panel using several sentiments from the About LOVE Collage 4x6 Stamps.

One of my favorite tips when creating collage-style cards is to keep your color palette simple. Limiting your colors helps all of the stamped elements work together. You can easily swap these shades to match your own style or occasion. I went with light purple, aqua, and raspberry ink colors. I began with the large “LOVE” sentiment and layered in smaller phrases like “XOXO” and “you’re my person.” I also added a few tiny black hearts for contrast and finished the collage with the sentiment, “I’d fall for you again and again and again and again…” which perfectly echoes the stair-step pattern created by the die.





To finish the card, I added foam tape behind the stamped panel and adhered it to a aqua/mint card base. I love the shadows and dimension from the foam tape. And that's it! An easy 5 minute anniversary card!
