Anniversary Card

Hi Everyone, what a lovely time I had to-day. I met up with Elizabeth (aka Silver Scrapper) for lunch to-day and what a lovely person she is too. We spent over 3 hours chatting, we really had so much in common it was unbelievable. I received a beautiful tag and a lovely goody bag of crafty things. We decided we would meet again next month too. So a great afternoon was had by both of us. 
My card to-day was made for my younger Daughter & Son-in-law for their anniversay to-day. With my craftroom being upside down at the moment I manage to create a card using a butterfly embossing folder that I distressed with Dusty Concord, Milled Lavender and Tumbled Glass.  I used some die cuts I had already cut and managed to put the card to-gether with the help of a bow and a few gems.  Hope you enjoyed your day.  Hugs Rita xxx

Hi Rita, how lovely for you and Elizabeth to meet up and have a chat about crafty things, must have been wonderful for both of you. I love your card, especially the butterfly embossed backing and the little butterflies on the front. Eldest GD was 13 today so been to a family party this evening, tired out now! Crafty hugs, Anne x
