Anniversary card!!

Today I decided to make an anniversary card using the sketch by Heidi for Friday Sketchers:) I went crazy with this one (LOL)!! The colors are so bright and different from what I usually use but it is cheery and actually it grew on me!! I have been informed by a few people that my picture taking skills aren't the best!! (well that the cards look better in person) So I took this one outside and hopefully the colors look as good irl!! I think the problem is that I tend to finish a card at midnight and take the picture in the dim light inside (also I am usually half asleep!!). Main image is from Sugar Nellie and the sentiment is from Papertrey Ink.

Paper: October Afternoon
Ink: distressed inks, white gel pen
Accessories: Arrow is diecut from pp, flower ~ marvy punch, dew drops from Sweet 'n Sassy.


Thanks for stopping by and have a great week-end!!!
