C&S Anniversary


I am needing quite a lot of Anniversary cards next month.....I have 4 family anniversarys in March, including my own.... 4 friends that have anniversarys too....also I have friends and family that will also be wanting me to make cards for the same people.....so pleanty to be getting on with.

My lovely bloggy friend Jane has resolved to use at least one of her older stamps at least once a week. I think that is a fab idea!!! I have so many stamps I could probably make a card every day of the year ans still not get through my collection!!! So I have used a rediscovered stamp " Stamps Happen - Blue Cafe" I have always loved this stamp....it is actually quite a large stamp but I have only used a small section of it.... Although I loved it I only ever used it pre copic days and so I found it difficult to create a crisp silhouette. I wanted to keep it simple so I have just stamped a little swirl in the background using "Memento - Rose Red" and another of my old stamps from "inkadinkado".... The happy anniversary sentiment it a little squint but hopefully does not look too bad.

Thanks for looking
Hugs Juls
