Anniversary

Today is our Anniversary.  I wanted to make my husband a nice card without being too frilly.  I saw THIS card on Laurie's blog, which is perfect!  Of course I had to CASE it.

I didn't do the hearts, because that's just not us. :)  This was such a simple card, and very sweet, I think.
Here's the inside:

I used a sheet from the Elegant Soiree DSP for the background.  Have I ever sung the praises of this DSP for its masculine patterns???  I LOVE using this DSP for my male cards.  This particular pattern reminds me of one of my husband's shirts.  I just love the simplicity of this card.  Love the owls in the shadow (only had to punch them out in black!).  I didn't have any sentiment stamps for the "LOVE" part.  So I cut it using my Cr*cut.

BTW, since we're always looking for good masculine cards, HERE's another awesome card using Elegant Soiree DSP and Owl punch.
