Colour and Ink: Anniversary Card & Tuesday Trigger

Anniversary Card & Tuesday Trigger

Today is our Wedding Anniversary. My DH and I are married 12 years - where does the time go? The above shot of the "lippy" is from O Magazine and is the Tuesday Trigger this week over on Moxie Fab World. Here is my card inspired by the photo.

I made this card using the wonderful Digital Kit by Jen Martakis called "Watercolours". I added some machine stitching, glossy accents and a computer generated sentiment - flemish script font. The glossy hearts are meant to represent the shine from the lipsticks!.

Today is also the day that Hero Arts starts hosting their Virtual Cardmaking party (10-12 Sept) as Operation Write Home celebrates it's Birthday.

Be sure to check out the details here. Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful day and great weekend.
