I discovered a new Friday challenge through a stamping friend, and decided to play along this week. It's called Friday Mashup and you have the option to create an anniversary card or a card using glitter or you can "mash it up" and use both! My only glitter is in the brad, and the sentiment is a tiny heart tag (LOVE those mini PTI tag dies!) with simply "love you" stamped on it. I felt this card would be quite appropriate for an anniversary card, but could also be given to anyone you might want to convey this thought to. I stamped the BG in Stazon Cotton White...again using this scrollwork stamp I had out from an earlier project. The sketch by Andrea Ewen is for the Viva la Verve Week #2 challenge on the Verve forum. Loved the simple layout...needed something simple for a busy time of year!
What else did I use?
STAMPS: Bloom & Grow (Verve), Artful Elegance (Verve), Tiny Tags (PTI)
PAPER: Concord Crush (SU), Spring Moss and Kraft by PTI, White
INK: Old Olive, Concord Crush, Stazon Cotton White
ACCESSORIES: Glitter brad by Recollections, Flower & leaves dies by Verve, Martha Stewart deep edge Garden Gate punch, Concord Crush ribbon (SU), Tiny Tag heart die by PTI, Oval Nesties.

Wowee Wanda! Those colors are just striking together! Love the mostly blue palette with the glitter and that wonderful shade of green thrown in! Awesome background stamping, flower and tag! A down right beautiful card!
