Growing Green Anniversary

Well, I have been laid back about posting things on my blog lately, but I have a pretty card to show you today.  I've been looking for ideas for cards for my next stamp a stack and came across this card...at least this is my version of it. :)

I don't case a card very often, but I was looking for an anniversary card too while getting my stamp a stack ideas and loved the colors on this one.  Not too bright for the guy, and not too masculine for the girl.  I might even end up using it for my stamp a stack too, who knows. ;)  This came from Deb Fearns and you can check out her card here. I must say she has the shadowing effect down a lot better than me!   I just sponged and spritzed my flowers.  I guess I need to take some classes or study up on that technique a little bit!  If you like this stamp set you might want to look into buying it because it's on the retired list!  I love the flower from it that I've cut out...and I've done it quite a few times.  I hope they have something similar to it in the new catalog!

Thanks for looking and have a great day!
