Morning readers,
I don't know about you but I tend to sit and write birthday/anniversary cards a month or so in advance (you know what the post can be like), I sat down to write the last batch and ... ran out of anniversary cards (oh, the horror!)!! I've been wrestling with the lack of mojo since Christmas and had failed to spot my stock levels were so low. YIKES! Nothing for it but to put on the big girl crafting pants and crack on ...

Brilliant anniversary card and a lovely leafy ATC. What's not to like? They are both great.
Happy Friday xxx
I totally agree with Sarn on these. The heart is particularly impressive
Both are absolutely beauiful and so nicely designed!
Thanks so much for joining in at my Crafty Wednesday challenge!
PS: In case you missed it ... there is brand new monthly challenge on my blog - "Ellibelle's Garden Party" where always anything "Garden" goes. Hope you'll check it out sometime :)

The stylish heart looks wonderful in that bright red Kathy, and the outline leaf in black and the infill stamp in bright pink work beautifully on this pretty ATC...two great makes. x
Love the stylish heart anniversary card, and the ATC is really vibrant and pretty. Wow you are organised … I only generally scramble to make cards I need about a week in advance, but I have hardly any family and a small friendship group so I never need more than the odd one or two at a time lol !! xx
Two super makes Kathy, I especially love the anniversary card.

Hey! The ATC's bright pink is eye-catching! And just as bold is the red, especially the glossy shiny red of the heart! The anniversary card is outstanding! The happy couple will feel blessed! Thanks for sharing the anniversary card for the A in "BEWAS" coded main themes at HQCOLCB! We appreciate the support! -- Becca
So pretty, and the bold brightness is great. Thanks for playing our challenge at Love to Craft Challenge. Have a great day!
