Happy Anniversary!

Here's a fun card I put together a few weeks ago for my brother's anniversary. I have been waiting for it to arrive in the mail before I uploaded it to the bloog.

>> I have a blast with this card! It came out quite elegant. A style I haven't been making much of lately. It was fun to remember my brother's wedding only one short year ago. He has an awesome wife... (just look up the Brenna card and that will say it all!)

I made another card for the sweet family we are living with as a thank you for the many ways they bless us!

DETAILS, DETAILS!

>> Papertrey saves the Day! My cardstock base is with PTI Dark Chocolate, adn the frames for the sentiment are Ripe Avocado and Spring Moss.

>> Both sentiments are from the PTI Mega Mixed Messages stamp set!

>> The Ripe Avocado frame was cut with my slice! :)

>> I have had this romantic background paper for years, adn was so happy to have a good use for it. The border punch I think was EK Success.

>> Don't you just LOVE those sweet little flowers? I saw Ashley Cannon Newell use flowers like that and it reminded me that I had some in my tote! Thus the inspiration for the card!

>> The PTI rhinestones were a perfect fit and just what I needed to trim out the card with a splash of sparkle!

Have a day filled with smiles and laughter! Tickle someone you love today! And don't forget how blessed you are! I know that I am!

PS. A Writing Update... I had an awesome break through with my book last night! Wow! I was so pumped I could hardly sleep. I thought I was much further from completion then I am, and as I pressed through for another hour and connected other pages I had already written.... all of the sudden I saw light at the end of the tunnel! WOO HOO! 270 pages!! Almost there! Ican't wait to share this story with you all one day! Hooray!
