I know this looks like yet ANOTHER Valentine's card, but it's really an anniversary card. My inspiration for this card came from one of Nerina's cards from SCS.

The designer papers are from the More Amore DSP, which has so many fun and cheery designs to choose from.

Hybrid Anniversary Card

Today I've veered away from Christmas to share this hybrid card I made several months ago. I  CASE'd this card from Connie Collins as my anniversary card for my husband. After a summer of no stamping due to my broken arm, her card got my creative juices going again.

This was actually a fun card to copy using My Digital Studio's digital stamps and Comfort Cafe designer paper. My "love" sentiment and flourish background are both digital stamps which I printed out on Crumb Cake card stock.
Supplies:
CS: Soft Suede, Crumb Cake, Comfort Cafe DSP
INK: MDS Early Espresso, Soft Suede for sponging

Thanks a bunch for stopping by! Hope that you have a wonderful day :-)

Happy Anniversary

From Heidi...

Thanks to all the Happy Birthday well-wishers...I appreciate your thoughtfulness. Everyone in my family made me a card this year...and they were all very different. I love the card Adriel made for me, which she posted yesterday. Love the color combo and sponging :-) Love Adriel, too!
On another note, my husband and I just celebrated our 31st anniversary a few days ago. Wow, where did the time go? We met up in California's wet and rainy Northcoast area and now we live in Arizona's dry and arid desert...talk about a drastic change. I'm thankful for him... for his kindness, for his faithfulness, for always taking care of me, and for his friendship. And I'm most thankful for his faith in God, which has been such an encouragement to me...I hope I get to spend another 31 years with him.

Here's a little card I made him...He is "My Kind Friend" with "dear" and "wonderful" tucked in there. Thanks for letting me share!

Happy Birthday, Cinco De Mayo, and Anniversary

From Heidi...Quite a title, huh? May 5th is a busy day. The "Happy Birthday" is for Adriel...today is her birthday! "Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday, dear Adriel...Happy Birthday to you!!!"It's also Cinco De Mayo! We had a friend request a Cinco De Mayo/Anniversary card this week, which explains the anniversary heading. Here's a card I came up with for her. I used retired stampsets for the stamping and My Digital Studio for the sentiment. She requested that it be colorful and happy, so this was a fun challenge to create. I hope this card makes a bright spot in your day!
