I wanted to participate in Just Us Girls Case and I bounced off of Vicki's lovely mason jar floral arrangement!

I used the pretty combo at Color Hues:

Heart Stencil Celebrate
Brutus Monroe Stencil, Stamplorations Celebrate Big Phrase Die, Tim Holtz Distress Inks, Tonic Studios Mirror Cardstock
I created this stenciled card for my parents' anniversary.
I kept it simple with a stencil from Brutus Monroe (easy to mix colors with because the sections have wider spaced borders) and a sentiment from Stamplorations (this sentiment had the word "Big" after Celebrate, but I trimmed it off).

I always appreciate your sweet visits!

Night Lighthouse Birthday
The Ton Stamps Lighthouse Night/Day Add On/Postage Party Die, Verve (out of business) Strong Anchor
Ok, so I did the night Lighthouse too from The Ton Stamps and I want you to think of Debby Boone's
"You Light Up My Life" which I belted at a very young age.
I FELT that song so I'm going to say it was my fave back when I was still me. ;)
If you zoom in, you'll see that I weaved cording into the postage holes and tied off two edges.
It's my version of "stitching".
