40 winks

Good Afternoon, my card today is the anniversary card I made for OH.  He doesn't 'do' cards, in fact I've never received a card from him in all the time we have been together, so I usually do a fun card of some sort for him.. This year though he at least made an effort, he got of  piece of my good cardstock and folded it in half and wrote Happy Birthday and Anniversary on the front of it, on the inside he put 'I made this card', needless to say it now has pride of place on the centre of the mantlepiece amongst all the other cards.

The image is from DigiStampBoutique - Jim Snoozing, this is Robert's favourite pastime (when not golfing) with his favourite drink close at hand.  I coloured with Copics, the bp is Cuddly Buddly, the green cardstock is Coredinations and the little metal heart embellie came from my stash.

My card is for two challenges:  DareU2DigiStamp - Metal.  Cute Card Thursday - Touchy Feely, to use texture.  I have embossed the offset card with the Devine Swirls Folder

I hope you like my card, thank you for visiting today.   Beryl x
