Last week, on Labor Day, my husband and I celebrated our 35th wedding anniversary. Yes, that does mean we’re getting old. We don’t usually do a lot to celebrate. We’ll go out to dinner but we don’t buy gifts and we’re lucky if we remember to give each other a card. I’ve been looking forward to our anniversary for over a month now just so I could give Mark this card.
No. He doesn’t have a thing for fireflies. Back in college when we were dating “our song” was “You Light Up My Life” by Debbie Boone. Do any of you remember that song? It was a long time ago! Ha! Anyway, I couldn’t resist giving this card to my hubby. We both got a chuckle out of it. 🙂
This picture is one of my favorites of us. It was taken almost three years ago at our oldest son’s wedding. I take a lot of pictures but I’m usually never in them so it was nice to have this one of the two of us.
I designed this card (OK…I probably copied the basic idea for it) using the Jar of Love stamp set. These little fireflies are so dang cute! I sponged some Crushed Curry ink inside of the jar and I colored the bodies of the little critters with my Gold Wink of Stella Glitter Brush. It worked perfectly to give my little fireflies a bit of sparkly shine!
I hope you all have a sparkly day! Take care and Happy Stamping!
