Wedding Anniversary card #2

Hi there

Well it's a beautiful day here in Auckland - and we get the day off work!  Today is Auckland Anniversary Day where we celebrate the founding of our province back in 1840.  Each year to commemorate the day there is a big sailing regatta (one of the world's single biggest one day sailing regattas) on the Waitemata Harbour.  Auckland is known as the City of Sails.

Today's card is the second in my series of wedding anniversary cards.  For this I've used the layout from Try Stampin on Tuesday and the colours are from Color Throwdown.

This was such a great card to make - my friend saw it and made one herself.  I've finally been able to use my  Striped Embossing Folder.   I think you will see more of this in coming cards.  To get the mat for my heart I've used the die from the Movers & Shapers set - if you don't have this die I would recommend getting it.

Supplies:
Stamp - Teeny Tiny Sentiments
Card Stock - Chocolate Chip, Pool Party, Rose Red, Very Vanilla
DSP - Crumb Cake Patterned Paper Stack
Ink - Chocolate Chip, Rose Red
Punches - Full Heart, Heart to Heart,Scallop Trim Border
Other, Stripes Embossing Folder, Movers & Shapers Die, Dimensionals, Dauber

Have a great day - catch you back here later with W.A. card #3.
