Happy Anniversary LOVE card with Project Life
July 02, 2015
On Sunday, Eric and I celebrated our 29th Wedding Anniversary... wow.. 29 years? How did THAT happen!!?? He hired me as a Structural Engineering Drafter in April 1984, and we got married on June 28, 1986... yep... 29 years ago!! Amazing! We worked together in the office until 1991 when Jason was born, then I worked from home when he brought work home for me so I could be at home with Jason. I started my Stampin' Up! career in 1995, and did both the drafting work and demonstrating until about 1999 when I transitioned to doing Stampin' Up! full time. I'm so blessed that God gave me such a kind, sweet, caring, loving and hard working man!! AND of course the best dad to our son Jason!! :)
I made Eric an anniversary card using the
Project Life by Stampin' Up! "Love Story" card collection cards!
I trimmed down the 4" x 4" Project Life LOVE card by 1/4" and mounted it onto a 4" x 4" Real Red piece of cardstock, and then on to Whisper White and onto a Basic Gray side-folded card. I just Loved the simple yet striking color contrasts!
I also stamped 3 hearts from the Watercolor Words stamp set and cut them out with my Paper Snips (best little trimming scissors EVER!) and mounted them with Stampin' Dimensionals onto the card.
On the inside, I added one more card from the Love Story Project Life card collection box and stamped the 2 hearts over the image. And because the card needed even MORE LOVE, I stamped more hearts and LOVE inside, too!
I'll admit that I have ALL of the Stampin' UP! Project Life card collections but have used them more on cards than I have in scrapbooks so far... that needs to change.. I really need to get back on track documenting our years together!
