A Rose Anniversary Card

Click on image to enlarge.

I am wishing my daughter Cindy and her husband Scott a happy wedding anniversary today. I sent them this card to help celebrate their special day.

This is how I made the card:

I started with a blank kraft greeting card that measures 5" by 6 1/2".

The background design is a digital paper from "Love is Chic Printable Journal Kit" by Ephemera's Vintage Garden on Etsy. I used two different pages and die-cut the scalloped edge.

I printed the paper on cardstock using my  HP Envy Photo 7855 Printer and the HP Instant Ink Program. I love to print lovely digital paper in my printer and never have to worry about running out of ink. Click on my link for a FREE one month trial!

I chose the digital stamp "A Rose" from Mo's Digital Pencil. I printed the image on white cardstock and used alcohol markers to color it (Copic sketch markers and Promarkers). I used a Spellbinders die to cut/emboss the image.

I used the sentiment "A special kind of love" from the Digital Collage Sheet Love and Valentine Words and Phrases from LisasAlteredArt on Etsy.

I completed the card with a bow made from pink linen ribbon/yarn.

I will enter this card in the following challenges:

Handmade Love Birds Card

My spring card making season is in full swing. I made this anniversary card yesterday for a special couple who will be celebrating their 15th wedding anniversary next week.

This is how I made the card:

1. I started with a blank kraft card that measures 5" by 6.5".

2. The pink background cardstock is from "Que Sera Sera" paper pack from K & Company. This is a double-sided cardstock and I used the reverse green side to diecut the circle.

3. I chose the digital stamp "Lovebirdz" from Mo's Digital Pencil for this card. I printed the image on white cardstock and colored it with Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers. I love the vibrant colors that I get from these water-based markers. I fussy cut the image and used glue dots to attach it to the green background.

4. I used the Spellbinders die "Floral Corner 2" to make the embellishment under the green circle. The floral embellishment was cut from the same paper as the circle. 

5. I made the "Happy Anniversary" sentiment with a Dymo Label Buddy embossing label maker.

I am entering this card in the 613 Avenue Create Challenge #208.

Handmade Anniversary Card with Tim Holtz Paper Dolls

I made this handmade anniversary card featuring Tim Holtz Paper Dolls.

The base is a blank kraft card that measures 5" by 6 1/2". 

I used double-sided patterned paper from the Tim Holtz Wallflower paper pad.

I die-cut the word "Love" and the curvy base for the paper dolls from the reverse side of the floral patterned paper.

I chose a vintage bride and groom from the Idea-ology 107 piece Tim Holtz Paper Dolls pack. 

I used the sentiment "Happy Together" from the Tim Holtz Idea-ology Quotations Metallic Stickers pack. I placed the sticker on top of the "Love" die-cut for some added dimension.

I finished the card with a piece of aqua linen yarn.
