It's getting a little challenging to make anniversary cards for my hubby, but I think this one will be a fun surprise for him. He is a firmly entrenched Trekkie, so he will totally understand the references on this card.
I started by cutting out a circle frame with two circle dies nested together. I then drew the asymmetrical triangle shape and cut it out with scissors. I pulled out some sprays and just went to town with all the different colors of blue and green and white. I wanted a space/galaxy/universe kind of feel on this Star Trek icon instead of the familiar silver and gold emblem.
While this piece dried, I cut out the letters for the word "imzadi" from white cardstock. (Imzadi is a Betazed word for "my beloved" - perfect for an anniversary card, don't you think?) I decided I didn't like the white letters nor the white card base, so I colored over them with a silver Sharpie marker.

Very clever card!!! I love Star Trek and have at least one Trekkie in the family, so I may be CASing this - although I'll have to find another word. Does your husband speak Klingon?

What an awesome Anniversary card! Custom made for your DH, it couldn't be better. The colors on the circle and triangle are awesome results of your spraying and I love the result of coloring over the white letters and card base with the silver sharpie! I agree with Claudia, You get the award for creativity!
