Any ideas from you crafty people of how to make a Golden Wedding card for my parents?

I'm not creative but would like to make something homemade. For their 40th, I made one out of red card with their wedding photo on the front & confetti inside.

Any ideas, please? I don't know where to start.

Rather than a simple card, how about doing a mini scrapbook type layout or pics of them + family over the years? Mount on golden / yellow backing paper, add gold ribbon etc?
You could then use a photo frame to display ?

Oooh, I like that idea! Can you buy gold card etc in WH Smith type places, or are there special shops??

Thicker wrapping paper is good to use too as a background (yellow roses ??etc)

I made a photo card for my In-Laws last year.
It might give you a few ideas.
