Happy Anniversary Barb & Dave

My sister has an anniversary coming up soon.  The real love of their lives, however, is their beloved Doxie so this called for a special card.  Drats, I can't remember where I bought this digi image but thought it turned out pretty cute.  Paper is from a freebie pack that comes with my wonderful English stamping magazines.  The heart was printed on the PC and cut with a Nestie.  Printed a couple extra hearts so I could punch out the matching photo corners. 

Anniversary Cards

Some dear friends have anniversaries coming up so it's time to get out the stamps!  I knew I wanted to use the old StampinUp "Summer By The Sea" couple.  I found several great photos, scanned them in and printed them out on regular matte card stock.  I picked backing colors, then stamped my couple on the same or complimentary colors.  I fussy cut them and affixed them on the card with thin dimensionals so they stand up just a little.   I lightly stamped "Love" in the sand, hoping it would look like they had written it with a stick.  I think they all came out pretty nice.  Enjoy

Fairy Love

I love everything about this card.  The delicateness of the fairy and the flowers and butterflies.   It is a Digi image, so that makes for a pretty easy card.  Most of all, I love the saying "I'll love you until the day after forever....

Anniversary Card for Husband

Since my husband never reads my blogs and can't quit figure out what a blog is and why I would have one, it is safe to post this creation that I just finished. I scanned it against a colored background so you could see that I have finally mastered the corner punching with the scallops - so simple once you know how. If anybody needs help, just let me know - be happy to share my new found knowledge with you. This was real fun to learn to make. The bird is punched from the SU 3 piece bird punch. Punch several of them in different colors, cut them apart and assemble the bird, sponging edges as you go. The branches are from the long SU die Birds and Branches. The hearts are punched from the SU 3 heart punch, the pink one cut down a wee bit to provide for a red margin and then stamped in red with a small part of a flourish stamp. The Text is SU. Hope you enjoy my creation

Fishes Wishes

Boy, I don't know what happened here - this scan barely resembles IRL, but you get the general idea. I put an Ultra Thick Layer of Crystal Lacquer over the fish bowl from the water line down. Between the Crystal Lacquer and the Scanner, it really washed out the color. Even the tiny fish - they were colored lavendar and green. This is for my dtr and s-i-l for anniversary. Inside has wonderful verse about how/why God made two. It's so appropriate for them.

Anniversary...

I don't know why this scans so terribly washed out. It is all done in pinks and browns but was done with chalk pencils. It has a great deal of color IRL. It even has about 1/3 grass and 2/3 sky with clouds. Hopefully you can get the gist of it. This is a KLM digi.
