Happy Foreverness

Hello there ...
I hope you had a good weekend ... 

I have a card that I made for 2 challenges ... I used this lovely sketch

... from Kathy's Waffle Sketch File ... my first time playing here ... 

... And this gorgeous colour palette


From CR84FN

My card is for my brother and SIL's upcoming wedding anniversary ...


I went with some digital papers by Agnes Biro called ''Drowsy" from Design House Digital
and used my Sizzix to cut a rolled rose from some cream felt ... along with a few little hearts using up the offcuts...


The stamp is from my favourite WaltzingMouse set "Fancy Phrases" and I embossed it with silver embossing powder


Now if you pop back on Wednesday, you are going to see another card similar to this one ... well, very similar ... 
See - I work in advance with DT projects and as I am going to be away for a few weeks in December ... I have all my projects finished up to the end of this year ... It just so happened that the new challenge at Papercraft Star on Wednesday uses more or less the same colours and I made it weeks ago .. but being as there is a colour difference and I had this paper over ... I got the opportunity to make this card.

I wish you a beautiful day and thank you for your lovely comments which I really appreciate ...

Many Thanks for stopping by

~ Ros ~
