Hello Friends and Happy New Year to you all.
I have an anniversary card to share today. I made this one for a sweet couple at church.
ETA: My card was chosen as one of the Runner Ups at Color Hues.
For this card I stamped the background in SU Boho Blue using Taylored Expressions Playful Plaid Background stamp (love this stamp), and glued the panel to my white card base. The center white panel was cut using SU Radiating Stiches dies. The flowers from SU Two Tone Floral were stamped in Misty Moonlight for the details and Boho Blue for the top layer. For the darker flower I used the blue full strength and the lighter ones was stamped off once. I added a touch of yellow to the flower stamens. The leaves were stamped in Gumball Green (ret.) The white panel was mounted with foam tape and the flowers and leaves were glued on. I did put pieces of foam tape under the edges of the flowers that were off the white panel. The sentiment is an older Verve stamp.
I am linking to Darnell's NBUS as this is the first time I have used my new Taylored Expressions stamp.
I will also link to the Color Hues Challenge and hope the green leaves are o.k.
Thanks so much for stopping by. I hope you have a wonderful day and a crafty New Year.
Happy Stamping,
JoAnn
