Another Anniversary

Just before our anniversary, it was our lovely friends, Steve and Natalie's wedding anniversary.  This was the card that I had originally planned on making for Phil, but as I didn't know how many years S & N had been married (and anyone who might know wasn't available) I switched the designs around and made the 20 hearts for Phil!


This card was based on an idea I found on Pinterest, although I jiggled it around quite a lot.  I bought the glassine envelopes, and I love them!  I love that you can still see the patterned paper through them and then pop something in so that it kind of floats (or is that just me?!)


I used my old typewriter for the words on this card, and some Sugared paper from Basic Grey along with a bit of pink ribbon from my stash.  I think that I will make other cards similar to this one, just so that I can use a few more of those lovely glassine envelopes!

Phil and I had a lovely weekend in London even though I felt poorly for most of the time (and still do).  More on that in future posts though as I have today made a start on the mini journal that I wanted to put together about the weekend ...
