Yes. Two things going on here.
First, it’s my anniversary. I know. Another life event happening on the SAME day as a card challenge – on a challenge blog that I just recently became a Design team member of…….
This week over at Create with Connie and Mary, we have another great sketch to get you thinking and get you using all some of those things from your stash! See the sketch –
Nice layout, right? I certainly thought so.
Since it is my anniversary and I needed a card……..I created this –
Lovely, right?
I loved it. I think Ed will too!
As you can see, I took to the fussy cutting again. For both sentiments too! They came from Watercolor Words. I cut the ‘you’ from the ‘just for you’ apart!
The lighter color of the words is on purpose as I used the Basic Grey Archival Ink Pad. I wanted that softer look here. And, you can’t go wrong with red foil paper to express love.
I’ve got some celebratin’ to do – 26 years! Wahoo! Love you my dear Ed!!!
So. You know it’s good ‘card-carma’ to leave a comment. Then, you should check the rest of the Design Team creations over at Create with Connie and Mary, while you’re there – pull out your stash and play along with us!
Happy Anniversary! Great idea to fussy-cut the words so you could use them over an embossed area, and great CAS look!
Thanks, Chris – it just worked out perfectly for the challenge. Thanks for your kind words!
What a beautiful CAS anniversary card Libby – I love the red foil against the white and I hope Ed appreacited the fussy cut lettering!
Lol Joanne – he liked the card, but really has NO clue what goes into making one! Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment.
Congratulations on your anniversary! Love your card! Men do not understand stamping…but you know he loved your card and the fact that YOU made it!
He seems to cherish the cards I make! I try to make it fun for him! Thanks for leaving a comment!
Well, well, well….another wonderful event to celebrate! Happy anniversary! I love that you made that big foil heart the star of the show. What a sweet and special card to commemorate the event!
Thanks Jenny! I am quite pleased with how this card turned out! Ed liked it too!! Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment!
Ooh belated happy anniversary. Love your card – it’s right up my street as we say – CAS – the foil heart just gives it a lovely pop of colour and shine!
Thanks Tracy! I’m lovin’ these wonderful challenges!
Happy anniversary! Love how clean and hands your card is. That red foil heart is just fabulous!
Thanks Sharon! I appreciate you stopping by to leave a comment!
Happy Anniversary Libby! Ed will love it! Sometimes I find fussy cutting to be therapeutic – love how you did it using those words on this card!
Thank you Jennifer! The ‘fussy cutting’ just worked here. Kinda like a marriage – you make it work!
