I LOVE how my card turned out, especially since it is for my DH Denny for our 49th Anniversary...boy how time flies ! What a wonderful adventure for us both :-) Three children and 8 grandchildren later that make us proud!
I was determined to try Loll Thompson's watercolor BG technique. Mine has my own twist, but I love how it turned out. Thank you again Loll for all your help and inspiration :-)
Fantastic card, Nancy! I love the wonderful colors you used for the watercolor panel and how you embossed the butterflies, then die cut some and attached over the embossing! Denny will be very pleased, I'm sure! Happy anniversary!

Just beautiful Nancy, water coloring is a challenging medium and you have done a beautiful job! I love how you inlaid the butterflies and lifted the wings. A wonderful CAS anniversary card...Congratulations on 49 years by the way!

Congrats to you and Denny as you celebrate your 49th wedding anniversary! And what a beautiful card you have made for Denny!! Love the colours. Your watercoloured background is gorgeous and love how you've inlaid the butterflies with another layer on top ... amazing design.
