Love

My in-laws celebrated there 47th wedding anniversary this week!!  This is the card I made for them:

Even though it wasn't quite fall on their anniversary, I went with a fall-themed card; it's close enough!  The card base is embossed with acorns (so cute!!).  I won the base as part of a prize several years ago, so I don't know what the name of the embossing folder is, but it is really cute!  Then I chose some fall patterned papers from a fall themed paper pack (all the patterned pieces were cut from scraps) to create the center panel and to stamp the hearts on.  I then fussy cut the hearts out and added them to the sentiment panel.  This was quite quick and easy as the base was already made, the sketch wasn't fussy and I didn't have to color anything!  I finished everything off with some small orange and yellow rhinestones.
