I needed to take a break from cleaning, book-work and getting ready for DD's wedding next weekend and my sis's visit.
Lynn, aka: allee's was picked for the Queen For The Day 08 challenge on Friday. She has such a beautiful gallery with so many cards just waiting to be case'd. I chose this beauty as my inspiration.......details....
Kept the layout out the same, changed image and dp and colors and shape of image.
This is a free download from Plum Purdy. It was colored with copic markers, versa marked and clear ep'd. Cut out and added the brads.
On a white card, I sponged the edges with salmon. Put on the misc dp that I sponged the edges with vintage photo. Put on the ribbon then popped up my image. Computer generated the sentiment, cut it out with my oval coluzzle, sponged edges and glued on. Added some white dots and lines here and there.
This is going to my in-laws. It was their anniversary this week, and me being the "not on top of things" person these days, remembered it but failed to send a card. Oh well!
Lynn, enjoy your time as Queen! Your gallery is fabulous!...........TFL :0)
Hi Sis! Did I mention, I got all 65 wedding favors done! Yahoo!!!!!

I love it! Your image from Plum Purdy is just plum purdy. It got the 'Mutnik' touch and came out looking adorable, as usual.

Awesome anniversary card! You're amazing... with all you have on your plate, you still can crank out incredible cards. If it was me, I'd be a bumbling idiot.

Ditto what Broom said! I only have my youngest DD graduation and the oldest DD moving and I don't have time to stamp in anyone's honor or do a challenge. I don't have very good time management skills, LOL! YOU on the other hand can do anything and everything! GREAT card, in-laws will love it!
