Hello. Well what a
miserable day. The dark cloud of
Oxfordshire is looming large and ugly over us today! Yuck!
Today I would like to share a card I made for my brother and
his wife (the J & J of the title) to celebrate their anniversary this
month. They have just returned from a
rather soggy holiday in Cornwall (my other brother and his wife are in tropical
Thailand so there’s no envy there then!).
The image I chose for them is ‘Times to Treasure’ from LOTV. Instead of using my usual Promarkers I
decided to colour with pencils. I am
still trying to get the hang of these and need to learn some blending techniques but
I think it came out ok. I stuck a couple
of heart peeloffs on the cover of the book they are studying as it’s all about
the love!

| Awwwww! True love! |
My paper is from Dovecraft and I used a script background
stamp to make a ‘page’ to sit behind the image.
My dies are Spellbinders Labels 1 and Tattered Lace corners and the
sentiment is an All Occasions die.
The flowers and twine are from my stash and the heart charm
was a magazine freebie. Gotta love
freebies!
My colour choice is all down to the colours that they had at
their wedding. Yes the bridesmaid’s wore
green, looked fab I have to say, and the flowers actually reflect those in her
headdress.
You see, I don’t just throw these things together (even
though it may look like it)! J
See ya!
Smiling always (this card was not a last minute job for a
change)!
Scribbly hugs
Jane xx
