It's DH's and my 21st Wedding Anniversary today! Yep, 21 years!! We married in 1989! It doesn't really seem that long ago and it's amazing how the time has flown and how the world has changed since then!! I made this little card for DH.
I am also popping this card into the CAS56 Challenge of 'It's Hip to be Square'. See this link for the deets: Forums at Splitcoaststampers
I stamped the image with Memento ink and coloured it with Gamsol and Prismacolor pencils and lightly chalked around the image with my Kaisercolour chalks, then ran my Warm Red ink pad around the edges of the oval. I added to some glue to the hearts on the image, add poured on some very fine .008 red glitter. I punched a heart from red cardstock, and glittered this as well. I stamped the sentiment with Stazon jet black ink as it seems to give better coverage on clear stamps than the Memento ink. I did the ribbon in 2 separate elements so the writing wouldn't be upside down and so I could get the writing even on both sides of the knot.
Thanks for having a peek at my card!

Congratulations on your 21st Wedding Anniversary!!!! Hope it is a very special and happy day for you both!
Very cute card for your DH. Does he 'make' your card? Dog-gone cute image and the heart embossed red is wonderful for the occasion. Sparkly hearts are the icing on the card. TFS and HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! : )
