Anniversary Card


Hello  Everyone and Happy New Year.   I have not dropped off the end of the earth like I'm sure most of you thought, but I've been tied up with knitting hats and scarves to donate and haven't made a card since November.  I needed to make an anniversary card for someone and I sat down at the desk and took a while before I could even get my thoughts in gear.  But I finally did and as usual for me I took the CAS route because I like that style and the recipients of this card are also CAS type of people.

I used some pretty paper I found in my stash and I have no idea who it is by but I love it.  I used a very old stamp and colored it with SU! markers in brown and red.  I cut it out with a SB die and also matted it on a circle SB die.  I added a two layer felt flower with a plastic flower in the center.  I rounded two corners and it was finished.  I did  not want to stress my brain too much on my first trip back to the craft desk.  LOL  Well that will have to do it for me for tonight, but I do hope to get back into a card making routine some day very soon.  Thanks so much for stopping in, I truly appreciate the company.
