DH has been evincing more than a little anxiety about the fact that I hadn't yet made a card for our upcoming (non milestone, nothing special) anniversary. So I got working and made this - next time he asks I can tell him not to worry, I have something made.
I used the toucan dies on the front. Originally I'd hoped to use them with the slider inside, but they are too big. So as not to waste them, I put them on the front, cutting a branch from two layers of brown card stuck together and drawing the texture on it.
Inside I used some more of the same DP and two of the birds from Bird Banter - I hope it looks as if they're snuggling up for a kiss and a cuddle as the card opens. I added a little heart - I think it's from Bird Banter too. It and the birds were stamped on light 90lb watercolour paper, and coloured with Mermaid Markers.

Wow...this fabulous card caught my eye right away...i love it. Such pretty bright colors and what a fantastic fun fold. The two birds on the inside definitely look like love birds. Happy anniversary to you both.
