Anniversary Card

It was my sister and brother-in-law's anniversary earlier this month so I didn't post a photo of their card just in case Val saw it before hand.

The main image is from Stamps Happen "How Do I Love Thee" stamped on acetate and the sentiment is from Butterfly Kisses "Anniversary Collage" which is part of a set. The card is from an Elusive Images pack and it was finished off with matching ribbon and gems.

It's been a while since I posted but I've been busy recycling Christmas cards that were sitting in my box - I hate throwing handmade cards and some nice shop bought ones away - so I've been up to my eyes. I didn't realise just how many I had but I have just finished making 80 recycled cards; just put in all the inserts and sorted out matching envelopes and now got to put them in cello bags. Then I will be able to get on with my "proper" Christmas cards!!!! lol Definitely think I will be making a start earlier next year.................... famous last words!

Anniversary Cards

Well, I can finally publish these two anniversary cards. I made them a little while ago, the blue one for my nephew and his wife's 1st wedding anniversary and the red and black for my friends Anne & Andy's Ruby wedding which is today. I didn't want to spoil the surprise for Anne by showing it earlier. I absolutely love these two stamps - the main one is the Happy Anniversary Collage BK2029MD by Butterfly Kisses (01424 855431)as is the flower stamp which is called Sakura BK2032D. Their website is under construction at the moment but they attend many craft fairs where their stand is usually inundated with crafters looking at all their wonderful samples!!!
