This is an anniversary card I made for my husband.
The image of the calla lilies is from Rubbernecker's 2010 floral release. I stamped the image onto X-Press It cardstock with Marvy black dye and colored with Copic markers. I then cut around the calla lilies.
I placed the calla lilies inside of the postage stamp border, which was made using my Cricut, specifically the Sweethearts cartridge. The small heart was cut from a Nestabilities die, and I wrote "1st" with a Memento Tuxedo Black pen.
The cancelled stamp image was custom-made for our wedding last year (we got married in an old post office), complete with our names, date, and location of our wedding.
Patterned paper from Lasting Impressions, DCWV, and gold cardstock form the layers for this card. I used a white gel pen to dot around the larger panel.

LOVELY! Beautiful coloring of the floral image, and I love the layout and how you've put it all together with the postage stamp making it look "authentic". I LOVE the postage seal you had created for your wedding day. Hoping you and your husband have or had a wonderful 1st wedding anniversary. Your card is stunning!
