TMR - The Sketch


Hi Everyone my DT card today is for 
the sketch -

It's been a few days since I added anything here, sorry about that, our son hasn't been well, however, as it's our 54th Anniversary tomorrow, I decided to make hubby a card, we don't usually bother, except for big ones! He tells me he loves me nearly every day so I don't need a card to let me know AW! 

I decided to make him one for a change. It will also make him feel guilty LOL. I have been looking through my old digital files and found this kit that I thought suited perfectly, it had hearts and masculine colours. With the sketch, a bit of layering and, a sentiment with help of my Silhouette, a touch of sparkle on the sentiment and heart - card done! Cheers to 54 years. (I was only a baby when we married!) You don't believe me?  Well I never!
digital papers and heart - Bekah E Designs 2015
black card - Dovecraft
sentiment - Silhouette Design store
 pen - Uniball silver pen
sparkle pen - Crafters Companion
all elements cut with Silhouette Cameo

Hi Faith, so sorry to hear that your Son hasn't been well, I can imagine that this difficult time will be quite frightening for him, hopefully he'll feel better soon.
Happy Anniversary to you both, and what a wonderful card, I'm sure your Hubby will love it, Kate x x

Vicky Hayes said...

You are naughty to tease your husband Faith but it sounds as if he's enjoyed being teased for 54 years! Love the arrow background - celebrating the ups and downs of marriage perhaps?! - and the scaled down version for the heart. Here's to you both and to many more years together! *raises cup of coffee*
So sorry to hear your son hasn't been well.
Sending hugs, Vicky x

congrats on your anniversary, sorry it's late, I have to get myself in a mood to comment at the moment. Your card is a great take on the sketch.

I saw this sketch the week it was published and couldn't figure out what to do with it. I kept thinking in terms of images and never thought about die cuts or sentiments. Your take on it is fantastic, Faith! Great paper choice.
