My husband and I will be celebrating our 33rd Wedding Anniversary shortly and this is the card that I made for him. This is also my card for the SCS Free for All Friday Challenge F4A622 of "It's a Guy Thing" which you can find at this link here----> F4A622 - 1/21/22 - It's a Guy Thing by ohmypaper! at Splitcoaststampers
The main image is by Stamperia - Forest - and was popped up on dimensionals. The leaf paper is by Maja Design - Vintage Autumn Basics No. XVIII - and the bottom designer paper is by Stamperia - House of Roses. All are matted on cream and dark brown cardstock. The punched border is an edge punch by Martha Stewart - Arch Lattice - and I added a strip of dark brown cardstock underneath.
The Star button is by Jesse James - Dress it Up - Lone Stars - No. 215 - and I tied some string through the holes and glued it on using Helmar 450 adhesive. The ribbon came from KMart (Australia) and I added Fray Stop to the ends to stop them from fraying. All the layers were ink-blended using Hero Arts Soft Sand ink just to tie in the cardstock with the muted tones of the image and papers. The tiny burgundy hearts above the foxes are the leftover diecuts from a Sizzix Drifting Hearts die #663451 which was a recent purchase. I love how this die has so many different sized hearts and I can see that I will get a lot of use out of it. I added some Glossy Accents to the hearts.
I couldn't figure out where to add a sentiment as everything I tried looked weird and threw out the balance of the card - so in the end, I didn't worry about it as I think my husband will be able to tell what the card is for anyway.
