Adore

Happy Monday!  This is a very special day for me.  It's the day I married my best friend, the love of my life, my soul mate.  After 13 magical years together my knees still go weak when he walks into the room.  And I still thank God each day that He gave me this perfect match.  Mark triumphs in my successes and carries me when I'm too weak to stand alone.  He pushes me to be the best I can be and picks up the slack when I fall short.  He's my # 1 fan and I couldn't imagine my life without him.  My life is truly blessed and I am a better person for knowing him!  So this card is for the man I adore... my husband, Mark.

 

The layout is this week's Mojo sketch {Mojo170} and I knew I wanted to pull out this Lost & Found paper I've been hoarding.  It's vintage and masculine, but still swirly and beautiful, too!  :)  I started by cutting the paper so the ADORE part of it would show, then I stamped a couple hearts from the Text Objects set on dp, cut out and used the scraps to make a fan, by scoring every 1/4" and folding accordion style like a rosette, but leaving unfinished like a fan.  I stamped the sentiment from Text Objects inside the stamped Vintage Oval Frame, then added some german glass glitter from the Holiday Glitzy pack by TCP around the frame and on the prima flower.  It's so sparkly!!!  There's a bit of brown lace underneath all that and I gave everything a good sponging with some Vintage Photo distress ink.

Well, there you have it!  Thanks so much for stopping by!  Be sure to head on over to the Mojo Monday blog for this week's sketch!  Have a fantastic day!
