Happy Anniversary

Today is my parent’s wedding anniversary. I think they have been together for 43 years! I like to make cards specific to a persons taste. My mom loves the color purple and butterflies. That made designing this card simple. I used my Butterfly Layering Punch from EK Tools and punched out two different shades of purple. I also used the CuttleBug Swirls Embossing Folder for the background. The stamps are from studio g. Unfortunately I didn’t have a happy anniversary stamp so I used two different ones that convey the same message. My mom loved the card and the fact that I used her favorite color and that I used butterflies which she commented on as soon as she opened it! I hope that they have many more happy years together!

The Wedding Colors

My brother & his fiancé came by my house on Saturday to discuss their save the dates. They were nice enough to ask me to make them. I’m really excited to get to do it and also look forward to working on the wedding invitations. Their colors are purple and turquoise, I already made a mockup of the Save the Date which I will post once they are sent out. I was inspired, as I usually am when I have to work with set colors, to make a card using those colors. I was also very happy to use my new Butterfly Layering punch from EK Tools. It’s a simple card just because. Thanks for taking a look!
