My card is for the Color Challenge hosted by Mary. Her fun & cheerful colors are Real Red, Blueberry Bushel, and White. The dessert option is Anything Goes. My dessert is embossing.
My DH and I will celebrate the 45th anniversary of our First Date on the day after Christmas. I decided to make a card for the occasion with Mary's colors.
A red gingham heart was stamped and die-cut, along with a blueberry outline heart. A white panel was dry embossed. The sentiment was stamped in VersaMark ink and heat embossed in white. The card was assembled. The embossed panel and the DSP are both tilted.
The sentiment strip was popped up. I added some rhinestones, substituting Night of Navy for the Blueberry Bushel. I could hardly tell the difference. Just a reminder than you can substitute with the closest colors you have.
We hope you will be inspired to join in and create for any occasion. Anything goes! TFL

How adorable to celebrate the anniversary of your first date! The day after Christmas--I'll bet there's quite a story there . . . . I love the two hearts on the embossed white layer, and that great greeting!
