From Russia with love

A friend from choir gave me a list of cards he required for the coming months. Among them was an Anniversary card. He will be spending his wedding anniversary in Russia and wanted a card for his wife which somehow reflected this.
I thought that this image was redolent of the spires in Moscow, so I hope it will be suitable for him.
The main panel was embossed with a SU embossing folder and the sentiment was made on the computer. A little diamante embellishment on the ribbon and the card was complete.

  7. Oh my, Chrissie - this is absolutely beautiful - wonderful texture, colours scheme and I love the image. If you have time, would you please be able to tell me where you got it/or who is the manufacturer? My brother loves Russia and is learning the language, this image would be perfect for a card for him!!
