Happy Anniversary, Lucy and David!

This card is for my good friend, Lucy and her husband, David, for their anniversary. It was actually yesterday, but I know she reads my blog every morning and I wanted her to see it in person before she saw it here. Hope it was a great day, Lucy! Lucy and I have been friends for ... way too many years to admit to here! LOL! (Nearly 50, if you really want to know.)

 I had the flower image printed out from last Wednesday's Flutter By Wednesday post, so I colored it and used it. I used Prismacolor pencils and Goo Gone for the coloring, and I added Star Dust Stickles to the flowers. I cut it out and glued it to the bottom layer. The bottom layer is stamped with a PSX stamp, embossed with a Stampin' Up! folder, and matted with black. Edited to add: I forgot to say that the digital image is from Beccy's Place.

 This card is also for this week's CAS-ual Friday challenge to use sparkle on a CAS (Clean and Simple) card.

 Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!

    GORGEOUS flowers....the sparkle really makes them POP! Embossing after you stamped the saying really makes it look like a cross stitched piece...well done!

    I love this design and the added sparkle you used on this one. Plus the textured layer just adds so much to the card as well.

    Oh, my, beautiful! The flowers are gorgeous. Love how you embossed after the sentiment was stamped. You must have known Lucy since babyhood. It's good to have such a long time friend.
