Anniversary Card

Hubby and I have been together for 19 years! Our Anniversary is September 16th  and, I believe, most of my friends thought it would not last. We’ve been through job loss, mayhem with my mom, the dementia of my mom, death, car accident, pet deaths, major costs, major health issues and we are stronger now than ever. 

I created this card for him creating the background using colour bursts. I sprinkled some coloured dust in yellow, green and red onto watercolour paper. I spritzed water onto the card and the colours burst forth. It’s really cool to see. Once it was dry, I stamped the trees in black and glued the backings, finally adding the saying.

He loved the card!

  2. Hi, Birgit!

    Happy anniversary to you and your hubby, dear friend! It is gratifying to read about your journey together. As it is for most of us, there have been many hardships and challenges along the way. Yet, unlike many marriages, yours has held together and you have arrived at this day stronger than ever. I applaud you both!

    The card you created is stunning and I can see why your man loved it. I can't wait to see the fall splendor in my neck of the woods and view pictures of colored foliage in upcoming posts on friends' blogs.

    This coming Wednesday, I will return to blogging with the first of my Shadyween posts. Hope you can take a look. Until then, have a safe and happy weekend, dear friend BB!
