Yesterday Brett and I celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary. A quarter of a century – has it really been that long?
Ok, yeah, I guess the added weight and loss of hair proves that it has. Now our kids are grown. One is married, the other two are in college. We are entering a new stage of life. Seems fitting for it to happen at this milestone.
I wanted to share the card I made for Brett. I know that the 25th traditionally calls for silver, but I decided to make a card that represents us.
Wood has always been an important part of our life. Brett was into wood working as a hobby when we were first married. He has built benches, entertainment centers, and more for our home. (And it plays an even bigger part since we started Stamp-n-Storage!) So naturally I pulled out the Wood Textures designer paper. (my favorite!) I used the retired Large Numbers thinlits to cut out the 25. I placed a bit of retired floral dsp behind and mounted the panel with dimensionals for added depth.
Happy Anniversary, Brett. Here’s to 25 more! I love you.
