Cathy Mack issued today's challenge, use Sun Rays on your card. When I saw BarbP's card: Summer's End by BarbieP at Splitcoaststampers
I was completely inspired by her beautiful card!!!
I wanted to make a card for dear hubby as our anniversary is coming up Sept. 1st. Wow! Can you believe it is almost September? Last year for our anniversary, we went to San Destin, Florida. It was wonderful. I have to say, I feel very blessed to have such a wonderful man who loves me!
About the photo, unfortunately, to get the sparkle to show up I lost a little of the color. I think you can still see the sun rays, faintly.
Cathy, thank you for a wonderful challenge! I am thrilled to make a card early (for once!) and thank you Barb! So happy you shared your gorgeous card today! <3

What a lovely romantic sunset scene you've created, Kathleen, and a great anniversary card. I always find it hard to make them for DH. I'd love to be there on the beach right now watching the sun go down.
