Anniversary Card






Here is a card I made for my brother in law and his wife for their one year anniversary. I used CTMH's That's Amore paper (it's one of my favorites!!!) and I got the idea for the card layout using CTMH's Originals book. Originals is a book that has many card designs in it ~ it tells you how to cut the paper, what size card, and it shows different ideas for the same type of card ~ there's so much in this book ~ and it's sooo easy to use! I embellished using buttons tied with chocolate waxy flax (another one of my favorite products!) and I stamped a quote on the outside of the card from the Treasure Life stamp set. The quote on the inside of the card, came from the Celebrate Life stamp set by Close To My Heart.

Stardust layout


This is a layout that I did using Close To My Hearts Stardust paper pack and stickease. I also got the idea of this layout from CTMH's Cherish book. The Cherish book is wonderful! It has 50 two page layout ideas! And the book is so easy to follow!!! The Stardust paper pack is great for boys! It has Moonstruck Blue and Topiary Green! I put pictures from when we went to the Porter Co. Fair on here. I left my blank space for journaling ~ which I will get to doing this weekend when I crop. I also did a little ink distressing and sanding. I thought the pages turned out pretty good.
