Quick post tonight as I'm in need of an early night and it's already close to midnight....
But, I had an idea to combine the cue word of Bell at CASology http://casology.blogspot.co.uk/2013/11/week-71-bell.html with the anniversary challenge at Addicted to CAS (who are celebrating their first anniversary) http://addictedtocas.blogspot.com.au/2013/11/happy-anniversary-to-us.html and this is what I came up with....
When I tried to think of something other than a bell for the cue I thought about what bells do - ring! So one gold engagement ring cut on the cameo with a diamond cut (by hand) from glitter vinyl and then over embossed with a silver sentiment from Waltzingmouse stamps. If only my photography was as good as my card making as this is a truly awful shot of what is a really lovely card in real life - honest!
