Regular readers may remember we celebrated our 40th Wedding Anniversary recently.
Here is the card I made for hubby
and here is the card he made an extra effort to get out amongst 'all the people' and get me
and here is the card he picked for Valentines Day
I think I will keep him ..... what do you think?
His family thoroughly surprised us with some beautiful gifts & flowers
Anyway, I thought that the extra effort his family went to for our Anniversary deserved an extra special 'Thank You' so I made two cards for them - one for the Sister-in-Law & Family and one for the Brother-in-Law & family
I had another go at making my own watercolour backgrounds - smooshing 3 different colour inks and then running through Cuttlebug embossing folders and inking raised bits and around edges. 'Thank You' die cut three times and sentiment stamped in Staz On Ganache. Cardfront mounted to Blue Cardstock.
Quite please with the way these turned out.

Remember, any day doing something you love makes it a good day ;-)
Doing what you like is freedom. Liking what you do is happiness.
Congratulations on your wedding anniversary and on your choice of a hubby! He's definitely a keeper and it sounds as if his family is a blessing, too. Your thank you cards are just beautiful. I love the backgrounds you created and the embossing folders added a perfect touch.
