Mornin' y'all! I had to roust Ryan out of bed at nine o'clock this morning, he is really settling into Summer Mode quickly. But that will be a problem for his grandparents for the next few days ;)
It's been very overcast here of late so I couldn't get a better picture of today's card:
My parents' 5oth wedding anniversary is on June 15, and tomorrow they're leaving on an Alaska cruise with some friends of theirs who got married like four days before my parents did, so it's a double anniversary cruise. I used a scrap of glimmer paper for the numbers and I'm not 100% sure if it was gold or champagne, but I figured sparkles were in order for this card. I have seen pictures from my parents' wedding and I know their wedding color was light blue and my mom had a bouquet of daisies, so that's why I had to use a piece of the Fresh as a Daisy DSP that just retired. I let the DSP and sparkly numbers do the work and kept the rest of my card very simple.
The Inspire. Create. theme challenge is what reminded me that I really ought to make a card for this ;)
So thanks to the Inspire. Create. team for the gentle push to get this card made, otherwise I probably would have forgotten.
That's it for me today, y'all. I've got to chivvy Ryan along so he'll be ready to go when his grandparents get here (so far he is lollygagging). Then I have to run a few errands and after that I will hopefully be spending some time in my craft room. Cheers!
