Love you Anniversary card for my hubby!


Hello Happy Friday I started this card yesterday and just finished it. I've been to the gym so feel good for the day but now I feel even better after finishing my card, I'm thrilled with how it came out. I made this for Greg for our anniversary coming up in October, I know he's going to love it! I cut a red card on Art Philosophy at 4.75 inches and then cut a blue layer at 4.25 inches. Last week at Michaels I found a cute stamp set by Hampton Art for only $1.99 an I love the little bees making a heart, so I stamped that and then coloured in the bees and went around it with white gel pen. I used rub-on letters for my title in the heart. For the grass I used my Cricut Craft room to weld together pieces of grass from Straight from the nest in bright green. The tree is also from the same catridge. I used a mini heart punch to punch out the red hearts on the tree. I also used a mini flower punch for the flowers along the bottom. I used Create a Critter to cut out my cute little birds, the sun, the stump and the cloud. For the stump I ran it through my woodgrain embossing folder to make it look like wood : ). I went around the cloud to give it a silver lining with silver gel pen and used my Peachy Keen face stamps to stamp the sun's face. So what do you think? Hope you like it. In the inside of the card I will be putting an insert with "A True Love Story Never Ends" as that is just perfect for Greg and I.

I also decided to enter this in the CardzTV Anything Goes Challenge for this week, you can find that on this link:
