HAPPY ANNIVERSARY


My brother and his wife are celebrating their anniversary today and this is the card that I made for my mother to send.  I cased a card I saw at a craft show back in November.  Wish I could have taken pictures of so many of her cards but of course I know that would have been rude.  :)

The stamp set is a retired set -Terrific Tulips from Stampin' Up.  It is a 2 stem process to do the flower buds and two separate stamps for the stem and leaves.  Inks used were Wild Wasabi and Elegant Eggplant. To soften the look I sponged some of the Elegant Eggplant ink around the edges of the floral design.

On the inside of the card I added a couple of the cute little butterflies above the sentiment.  Your comments are always welcome and appreciated.  Thank you so much for stopping by!

This card reminds me of spring....and hopefully reminds them of the springtime of their love! Well done!

Aren't these birds cute?  I've had the stamp set for a while and just hadn't inked it up.  The littlest bird was cut out and pop...
