I spent all day making this card for my dear husband. We have been married for 8 years tomarrow. (nothing like waiting til the last minute... lol). I got punch happy on this one. I used the Martha stewart branch punch, the SU 2 step bird punch, the modern label punch and used I heart hearts SU set. The bg is from aTim Holtz embossing folder called woodgrain. I just layed my close to cocoa and choc chip ink pads and ran down the embossed cardstock. There are so many people I kopykat'd ideas from. I can't find who came up with the chickadee's, but this card reminded me of it today: CAS71 things that fly by jaydekay at Splitcoaststampers
Thanks for sharing everyone, I get so much mojo from looking at your wonderful cards.
I also used scraps for this whole card! yeah! I have a little suitcase container that is buldging with scraps, so I am constantly thinking about using them up.
TFL.

Happy Anniversary!!! Great card and I like to see you giving those punches a work out. Now, that is a great woodgrain embossing folder and I'm sure I'll be needing that. Yikes!

Oh! The pressure of the last minute card! And how lovely a job! Every inch of this is delish, and still masculine too. Love your wooded bg, and those smoochin' birds. A punch-filled delight! "Two lil birdies, sittin' in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G! Happy Anniversary and thanks for sharing!
