Happy 30th Anniversary!



Hi Friends!

Today's card is one I made for my Sweetie for our 30th anniversary.  We both love birds, so thought this would fit the bill.  I used a woodgrain embossing folder, and brushed it with distress ink.  I used a Spellbinder's die to cut out the heart in the middle of the card.  Next, I layered the birds and branch.  The bird is a SU punch.  The little branch is a Sizzix die.  I colored the birds with distress inks.  The tiny hearts were punched out with a Martha Stewart punch.  Of course, I got to the anniversary "year" and didn't have the right size numbers.  Luckily, I found a stamp set with numbers at the very last minute, after a quick trip to the store.  Whew....

So my computer is acting up today and deciding to capitalize whatever words it wants to, so please ignore the capitalizations.  My Mac has a mind of it's own today and I'm tired of trying to fix it.  Argh.......    

I hope you enjoy today's card.  Our anniversary was in February, but just got around to ask hubby to take pics of a few cards today. This was one of them.

Thanks for stopping in today.  Have a good week.  Until next time...

      Thank you, my friend. We had a nest of baby robins (we just love robins) this spring....5 babies! Sadly, one fell out of the nest too early, but the other 4 made it just fine. Amazing how they can build a nest big enough for all those babies. Love birdies. Thanks for stopping by. Hugs, Geri xo
