I started with the background stamp. I purchased this stamp a long time ago at a craft garage sale, it is from Arts Uniq' Inc. - I just loved all the details, but well it is HUGE! The stamp measures 5x7 (that includes the tree off of the top). And well I really didn't know what I was going to do with it, but I just loved it. The wording around the edge reads.
"One hundred years together - Would surely be too few - For every day , all over again ... I fell in Love with you. D Morgan."
I colored with my Copics - then stamped out one of my Sarah Kay images - she was PERFECT for this, can't believe I hadn't seen that before - She just looks like she is getting ready to walk down the path to the house in the background. I wonder ... do you think this is where she lives? or visiting a friend? What ever the story is, she fits. She too is colored with Copics and then I cut her out. The large image is also cut out. I went with the straight lines of most of the image but then popped out the tree at the top of the card. The Sarah Kay image is pop dotted off of the background so she has some dimension. Only other thing is a simple white gel pen stitching around the edge of the light blue card stock base.
Hmmm guess I am gonna have to make an envelope for this one as it is bigger than a 5x7....
Thank you so much for taking the time to look and another Thank you for any comments -
