Nine years ago yesterday my husband and I said "I do" under the tree in our back yard surrounded by our families and a few church friends. I am so grateful for the blessed life The Lord has given us and I'm so thankful for the past 9 years.
But I won't bore you with sappy lovely dovey stuff - I'll just share the card I made Shawn instead! :)
The colors I chose were inspired by this week's Pals Paper Arts color combo.
I ordered the From Land to Sea set particularly for this lighthouse. I love lighthouses and the symbolism of them. I thought the sentiment from Going Global fit perfectly with the lighthouse and an anniversary card.
I wanted to make the look of the waves splashing against the lighthouse and sand and the Timeless Textures set was perfect. I colored the lighthouse, Pool Party sky and added some sand that I drew "freehanded".
I also used the striped stamp from Timeless Textures to add some of the gray clouds. A Wisteria Wonder button was added for a little more texture and color.
For the inside, I carried over the Timeless Textures and a strip of the black paper from Going Places DSP Stack.
Hope you all enjoyed my card. Make sure to head on over to PPA's website. And while you're stamping, make a birthday card to help us celebrated our FIRST BIRTHDAY at TGIF Challenges!
Our awesome "founder" Mercedes Weber is giving away a BRAND NEW, NOT-YET-TO-BE-RELEASED, stamp set from the upcoming SU! catalog!
Happy stamping!
