Anniversary card

Morning all!
I have been playing around with ideas for an anniversary card for my hubby Robin as we have been married 14 years next Tuesday!!! EEEKkkkkkk!!!!
I wanted to make something a bit more masculine and also something my ladies could make at our LURVE class near the end of the month.
I went for an easel card using the colours Taken With Teal (retiring), Pumpkin Pie and Soft Suede. Also wanted to use some of the spotty Soft Suede ribbon which unfortunately will also be going at the end of September!
The birds were stamped first onto the white card and then onto some patterned paper from the Sweet Pea pad and cut and layered on top. I used the linen thread (so useful) and added some of the Tiny Tags to it also a lot of paper pricking too!

The Happy ANniversay sentiment is from Cheers and Wishes.
RIght thats it for me today, got a day of wedding stuff in between sorting the boys out and housework!!!
Back tomorrow

Playing with hearts!!!

Gosh its been all go here today, only just found time to write this!! Still catching up with holiday laundry!!!
ON Tuesday night I asked my ladies what they would like to do at the next class and they said cards for anniversaries and engagments etc..... So we are having a Lurve Night on 31st August at our next class!!!
I have been playing aroung with ideas and came up with this card which can be adapted for a number of occasions
Rich Razzleberry card, with Melon Mambo and using the I Heart Hearts ets. I spent a little time cutting these hearts out and layering them over the polka dot ribbon.

Ruffled it up a bit at the edge for a jaunty look!!!!!!

Inside I punched out some more hearts with the matching Heart to Heart punch. I left the rest blank and can add a sentiment when I need to!!

Here are a few photos from yesterdays match!
