Q What can I use to make a card for a fifth wedding anniversary?

A fifth wedding anniversary is associated with wooden gifts, so use this as a starting point for your card. You could use woodgrain paper for the background of a design, like on the card shown here. You could also use a wood grain embossing folder or rubber stamp to create a focal point or background. You can use wooden embellishments to continue the theme and add a fun finishing touch – see what your local craft shop has in stock.
