Anniversary Card

Hya,

Hows your weekend been? Mine has been quite busy. Yesturday Lauren and I went to the Castleford Freeport. We had been given tickets by my lovely friend Carol to go to the pictures there and Lauren was desperate to see Shrek Forever After. It was a good film but it was a long time ago that i went to the pictures on a saturday. I had forgotten how many young children go to the saturday matinee. After the film we had lunch and then did abit of retail therapy, like you do. Then today i have tried to catch up with house work and stuff.

Anyway, on to a card. This card was made for my hubby as it was our wedding anniversary this week. I used Basic Black with Real Red layered on it. The background was the A to Z stamped onto Whisper White. I wrapped Gold Thread around for detail. The heart was stamped using the I {Heart} Hearts stampset. I then punched a Real Red heart using the heart punch and layered them together. The sentiment was from the Cheer and Wishes set also mounted on the Real Red and Basic Black.

Iam quite pleased with the end result and so is hubby.

Time to go now. Have a lovely week.

golden wedding anniversary

Hya,

Hows you? Is the week being good to you? At least the nice weather has returned to us. Just a pity i have to work. I hope it stays for the weekend.

I thought i would show you a card i was asked to make for a golden wedding anniversary. Now this card was inspired by my stamping up mum Julie. She has a lovely card on her blog. This card was made using Summer Sun cardstock. I have stamped with basic black onto to the summer sun with the polka background stamp.I also used basic black again on summer sun and very vanilla with the I {Heart} Hearts stamp set. I have then layered the hearts across in a line. i have used black gingham ribbon across the top and bottom of the rows.

Iam pleased with the final result.

My other news is that Iam so excited. The Stampin' Up Convention details have been released for in November and i have managed to secure my place there. We are Having two days of all things Stampin' up and I can't wait. We will be there with other demonstrators from around Europe. Iam sure you will hear lots about it before then.

Well, back to it for now.
