25th Wedding Anniversary cakes and cards



I attend my friend's parents 25th wedding anniversary on the weekend. It was only small gathering in their house. They have such a harmonious family, they are blessed with 4 children. Now, all in their teens and young adult. We had Chinesse steamboat for the dinner :) was so fulfiling.


Close up photo of the cakes, two doves added on top of silver ribbons nest.

In the afternoon, I was helping my sister bf's mother with the wedding anniversary cakes decoration. She unexpetedly rang me in the last minutes needing my help to decorate the cakes. She made the lovely white cakes with the heart shape on top. But she was concerned that it was being to plain. It was my idea to place the doves and ribbons on top. I'm my self not very meticulous in tying, so I'm glad that my sister got certificate in floral arrangement. She got the job well done ;) don't you think? I only added the finishing touch, with two doves paper cut. All materials were bits and pieces that we could find at that time. All done only in few minutes.


I also designed customised anniversary greeting cards for them. I was working on it slowly, last week. Sadly, the card never made it into their hands since our printer suddenly broken (after I recently bought new inks, which cost me more than $100!!!!!! I am still absolutely upset 'bout this). So rather leaving the cards useless, I would like to share it with you. You can print the cards your own (precisely fit on A4 cards, you'll need to trim it following the trim mark, it's blank inside), download it from here. Sorry, still can't figure it out how to put a download link yet. You can send me message if you're interested, I can even add more personalisation. Please don't be hesitate to ask.

It was quite fun, giving me a chance to be crafty again^^
