Special Day & a fun card!!

Well.........today is a special day.........it's the 15th of February and Frank and my 15th wedding anniversary!

I'm one lucky girl to have Frank in my life!  Even though he calls me his "future ex-wife"  LOL.  (That's his personality and I'm glad he's got a great one!)  So, Happy Anniversary Babe!! I love you!!!

Now - on to a fun card I made for our friend Lee's 50th Birthday - which we all celebrated last night!
The six friends below went in on a gift together and I was in charge of the birthday card (well, of course!!)

Frank wanted to use a picture from vacation - so I printed out the picture below twice on cardstock. (I wish I had used photo paper....but...I didn't have it on hand).  I put one of them down on black cardstock and then cut out the other picture to be popped up.

Here's a view of the 'pop'

And for the inside - I went a little nutty cutting out each of our heads.  I tried to choose pictures where our mouths were open as if we were speaking the words!  LOL - it makes me laugh when I look at the inside!
I used a variety of stamps for the inside sentiments:  PTI, Lawn Fawn and Inkadinkado

So - just a fun card!!!

Have a great day!


Thanks for your visit!
