Last week I made this card for two of the most wonderful people you could ever hope to meet. This week they celebrated their 49th (!) wedding anniversary. Anke and Mike are members of our wonderful church. They have done and continue to do more than you can begin to imagine for our church. They are amazing people- such a wonderful example of loving, giving, Christ followers. What an inspiration they are! And just the nicest people, too. I often tell my husband that I want to be like Anke when I grow up ;-)
Anke is very, very talented at crafting. She lives in a big, gorgeous old Victorian house, and I wanted to make her something elegant with a bit of a vintage feel to it, as I think that would be her taste. I hope she liked it.
To make this card, I used: River Rock and Very Vanilla c/s; K & Company designer paper; Prima flowers, gold Robin's Nest dew drops, brass findings and lace ribbon. I embossed the sentiment in gold.
Paper crafting has become my way to share the creativity inside my soul. It is my creative outlet, my diversion, and my escape from everyday craziness. After spending years as a Stampin' Up demonstrator, I learned how to share my love of crafting with others and encourage them to find their own creative outlets. Now, instead of working for a specific company, I am focusing my time on my own creations and designing my own art. I hope to inspire others with my work and am excited to see where this takes me!
