Anniversary

Good Afternoon, another showery day here........when is summer going to start! Our schools break up tomorrow for the holidays so I hope we get some decent weather soon. I'm sitting waiting for the carpet fitters to arrive, we did have an AM appointment - just as well I don;t need to be anywhere this afternoon then!
I made this last night for my sister whose 12th anniversary it will be next month whilst I'm on holiday.


Topper is from Krafty Hands, paper is a magazine freebie from Webster's Pages; punches from Martha Stewart; Dies from Spellbinders and Marianne Design; yellow lace from Crafty Ribbons; doilies from Joanna Sheen; ribbon, flower, sentiment and pearls from my stash.

Challenges entered:
Delightful Challenges - celebration
Allsorts - any die will do
Incy Wincy Designs - anything goes
Love to Create - anything goes
Squigglefly - use a pink bow or button (I've used bow)
Party Time Tuesdays - anything goes
Cooking it up with Katie - lace a sunny flower
Crafty Creations - embellish it
Paper Shelter Challenge - punches and dies
Get Hippity with Ippity - colour challenge + weddings/anniversaries

Well my carpet is being laid as we speak so I guess the rest of my afternoon is taken care of putting the room back together!

  4. This is lovely Carol, fab image. Don't like to tell you this but we have wall to wall sunshine down here in Hampshire, you'd better not bring the rain with you when you come down this way on your hols.

  7. Adore the layout, cute card.

    I bet your sister will love this too!

    We've actually had a beautiful day in the South East. Shame I've been at work and not been able to enjoy the sun, no windows either.

    Glad the carpeting people finally arrived, hope the room doesn't take too long to get back together.

    Have a lovely Evening, happy crafting x
