Anniversary card

Hello! Here is an anniversary card that I made. I added this lovely build a brad to the card and it's so fun to use because you can add some DSP or whatever you like in the middle of the brad!

And of course, I had to add some butterflies.

And flowers with bling-y rhinestones.

   

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!!

Thank you Chan! 

Wow, my stamping friend Chan is so super sweet! She always thinks of us gals in our little stamping group whenever a special day or event comes up and she always sends a lovely card! Here is the card that she sent me and Ben for our Anniversary :) Isn't it so pretty?!?!?!

I'm such a big fan of the Big Shot and love that she embossed the card using the Lacy Brocade Textured Impressions Embossing Folder (127819) and  used the Paper Doily Sizzlits (125592).

And love the new in color ribbon. Isn't it so cute? And there's that First Edition Specialty DSP (121878). See? You can use it for all kinds of cards and projects. So versatile :)

Happy Anniversary

Hey everyone. Today is an extra special day and an oh so very happy one because 5 years ago today, I married my true love, my soul mate, my husband. I am extremely blessed to have Ben by my side on this lovely journey that people call married life. I know, I know, mushy central! hehehe. Can't help it! I so HEART that guy :) And it is true, time does fly when you're having fun because sometimes I can't believe that 5 years has flown by already! And here's to many, many, many, many more Anniversaries to come :D

And here is the anniversary card that I made for Ben. Of course, I went with our wedding colors and theme. Blue, Ivory, Silver and Butterflies :) Can I just say that my husband is amazing because bless him for putting up with my butterfly obsession since we included them in EVERYTHING! hehehe.

I finally got to use the En Français background stamp (109521) and I actually bought it so that I could use it for this year's anniversary card. It's just so pretty and romantic to me. And the angel's wings and heart is from the Affection Collection stamp set (Clear 127949, Wood 127946) from the Holiday Catalog. I punched out a silver heart with the Small Heart punch (17193) and added a Large Pearl Basic Jewel (125577). Oh and behind the small butterfly from the Beautiful Butterflies Bigz die (114507) is that pretty scallop burst, which is also from the Affection Collection stamp set.

I also used the larger butterfly from the Beautiful Butterflies Bigz die and I added a glimmery 5 on top of the butterfly. I used the new Typeset Alphabet Bigz die (127553) and used Silver Glimmer paper (124005) to cut out the number.

The 'Happy Anniversary' sentiment is from the Memorable Moments stamp set (Clear 126682, Wood 126680). I also sponged all over the card because well, I like the look of sponging :) I also added another strip of Midnight Muse behind the Very Vanilla and used the Scallop Edge Border punch (119882) to add a little border.
 

And of course, I had to add something on the inside of the card, too. Yup, went all out for this guy ;) Glimmer paper, background stamp, big shot action, punches, a large pearl, butterflies and sponging! Oh and did you notice that the angel's wings with the heart was actually cut out with scissors? Yes, I used scissors to cut something out!! Now that's love ;) And you know, to me, Ben is the World's Greatest husband :) Which is why I bought the World’s Greatest stamp (126270) just for this card. The 'HUSBAND' sentiment is from the Family Reunion stamp set (Clear 122712, Wood 122710).

Phew, that was a little novel wasn't it? haha. I guess I had a lot to say for this very special occasion :)

And this is what I have to say to my lovely husband..... I LOVE YOU, happy FIVE YEAR anniversary and THANK YOU for filling my heart and my life with so much happiness XOXOXOXOXO

Have a great day everyone, enjoy your weekend and thanks for stopping by :)

Love is Like a Butterfly

Hi everyone! Happy Sunday :) Today, I want to share a card that I made for my husband's parents. They celebrated their wedding anniversary last week. I wanted to go with something clean and simple but also wanted to feature some Stampin' Up! product that I just LOVE! hehehe. I went with Elegant Eggplant card stock (105126) since purple is my father-in-law's favorite color and used some matching DSP (117154).

And I used the new Oval Accent Bigz Clear Die (127005) which is one of my new favorite dies because of all the different ways that you can use it. For this card, I used it as a window to feature a new embossing folder that will be coming out in our new Holiday catalog! Are you excited!?!? Stay tuned for more news on that :)

 

And of course, I used a lovely Antique Brad (117273) to keep the two butterflies from the Beautiful Butterflies Bigz die (114507) together.

On the inside of the card, I used two different stamps from two different stamp sets. The Love is a butterfly sentiment is from the now retired Butterfly Prints stamp set and the Happy Anniversary sentiment is from the Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set (Clear 127802, Wood 115370), which is my ever so trusty sentiment stamp set for any project. 

 

I hope they had a wonderful day together celebrating such a wonderful marriage :)

Thanks everyone for stopping by and enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Happy Anniversary

Happy Anniversary 

to 

my brother and sister-in-law!!

Hello everyone!

Four years ago today, my family witnessed an amazing and beautiful event. My brother married his amazing wife in a beautiful garden setting amongst close friends and family. I couldn't believe it, my little brother was getting married! We laughed and we cried as they stood in front of everyone and exchanged their vows. Then we clapped and cheered as their officiant announced the newly married couple.

Here is the card that I made for the couple celebrating their 4th wedding anniversary.

But, I so dropped the ball on mailing it out earlier in the week so that they would get it on time. Ooops! But, I will of course hand it to them the next time we visit.... along with their anniversary present that's something linen or silk related.

I had so much fun making this card because I got to use some of my new product :) I got to use the new Fancy Fan Embossing Folder (127751), a couple of the labels from the Labels Collection Framelits (125598), the new Elegant Butterfly punch (127526) and the new Memorable Moments stamp set (Clear 126682, Wood 126680). I also decided on the Lucky Limeade and Calypso Coral color combination that I'm a huge fan of :)

I hope they enjoy their special day!

Have a wonderful day and thanks for stopping by :)

Anniversary Card

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY MOM & DAD!!!!

Today is my parents' wedding anniversary :) They are such an inspiration and we are so blessed to have them in our lives. Here is the anniversary card that we sent out the other day. I hope they get it on time! I went with pink because that is my mom's favorite color :) And of course, I added butterflies because that's my favorite hehe.

I made the card a little bigger, too. It's a good thing it was a 5x7 card since I did write a mushy novel on the inside telling them how much we love them and appreciate everything that they do for all of us :)
