So, today is my TENTH Wedding Anniversary. Wow! Can't believe I just wrote that. How the world and our lives have changed in the last 10 years!
Here's a picture from the big day!
We were married in a traditional Catholic Mass in the Cathedral downtown. It was a beautiful wedding. Then we had a FUN, FUN party afterward. It rained, which I hear is good luck. We've been lucky so far. A couple of months later we bought our house; a few years later we had our son. We are blessed.
So, with jobs, parenthood and sinus infections, I'm not really sure we will be having an official celebration. Last weekend we purchased great tickets to a favorite band's summer concert, so I think that is our present to ourselves. I wonder if I can somehow order scrapbooking supplies to celebrate the occasion. Hmmm.
Here's my card for my sweet husband:
I love the new number dies and Big Birthday Wishes stamp set from PTI. Several sentiments work for anniversaries as well. The two larger ones are from that set, and the Happy Anniversary is Hero Arts. On the outside of the card, I used a cuttlebug folder to deboss the mat. I didn't fold the cardstock into the folder, but left it open, so that it wouldn't be so deep. I like how it turned out.
I'm entering this card into my Blog Group, The Papertrey Paper Dolls, challenge from Cecilia. There are several entries already, so I know it was a needed challenge. Time to refocus! You can get the details of her challenge here. She challenged us to ease back into our crafting after the holidays by doing a simple card. You should come and join us in our challenges.

Thanks for visiting My Happy Place!

Congrats on your anniversary! Didn't 10 years go by quick? Beautiful card! Love the idea of not folding the embossing folder so that it gives a more subtle impression. Very nice.
Beautiful card, and Happy Anniversary! (thanks for the tip on running the embossing folder through without closing it!)
