Happy Anniversary

Good Evening,
Not felt too good today feel like i am coming down with flu!! oh well must carry on.........

I have made this card for our wedding anniversary.  I have used a digi image of the couple but can't for the life of me remember where i got it from(if anyone recognizes this image can you message me so i can give credit).

I coloured it in using promarkers, and the backing paper is from the papermania forever friends love collection.
I stamed some text over the top with Versamark and heat embossed some white pearl embossing powder.
I added a tag and embossed the word Love to that. Added a doily and some dark silver pearls
Also added another greeting and finally i had the Mel Jen sticky plaster freebie from this weekend, and printed it off 4 times coloured them and cut them out for the corners.

Good evening,

What another gorgeous day we have had here in Eastbourne.

My 4 year old left nursery this week to start school in September and i made this card for all the staff at the nursery, the boy is a little like my son, so i thought it would be cute to use it. The image is from Imagine That he is called Bee Boy

I coloured him in using promarkers, and inked the chipboard letters with Tom Holtz distress ink, the background is some papermania patterned paper with the digi bee image printed on top.
