He everyone!
Just wanted to show you a card I made for my Husband for our 21st Anniversary a couple of weeks ago. Pretty clean and simple, but I thought it came out cute!
I used the Sugar Hollow Cling Set for the owls and sentiment and then die cut a second owl image using the matching Sugar Hollow Tree Die. The images were colored with pencils and mineral spirits using paper stumps. The background is embossed with the Square Lattice Embossing Folder from Stampin Up. Complete instructions are below if you would like them!
I'm submitting this to the following challenge:
Word Art Wednesday #244-245 - Anything Goes
Thanks so much for stopping by!
Blessings!

ReplyDeleteHappy Belated Anniversary! You are reminding that I need to make a card for my hubby...Our Anniversary is next week!
ReplyDeleteThis is adorable, and somehow super elegant at the same time. The neutral colors are subdued and perfect for the feel of this card. Amazing job, Kathy.

Aww, this is precious. Love the embossing too! Thank you for blessing us with your creation at Word Art Wednesday. Leaving you with the Word of God in 1 Peter 1:13 which tells us, "Therefore, with minds that are alert and fully sober, set your hope on the grace to be brought to you when Jesus Christ is revealed at his coming." Blessings always.
