As soon as I saw this adorable stamp from Gerda Steiner I knew it was going to be used to make this year's Anniversary Card. I took my inspiration from one of the DT cards at Gerda Steiner: https://gsd-stamps.com/blogs/gerda-s..._medium=social. I swapped out Jessie's circle for a heart.
To make my card, I die cut the heart and ink blended the blues. Then I assembled the mountains on the heart and trimmed off the excess. I wish I hadn't added the trees, but I was so sure I would like them that I glued them down. In the end I think it looked better without the trees. Oh well. I did cut off the flowers in the Mammoth's trunk and replaced it with a small heart. The sentiment was typed in Excel using Tahoma and KG The Last Time fonts.
I know my hubby will enjoy this and that he knows my love for him truly is HUGE. TFL.

Fun as well as beautiful in design and thought! Your hubby will surely love this gem. The coloring/shading on the big guy is superb. The mountains and the trees all add to the charm.
Hugs,
Betty

Debbie, this is sooooo fun. Reminds me of the movie Ice Age and also it makes me think of the wooly mammoth fossil (bone) my grandson bought at the artifacts show we went too. Your husband will adore this! Who wouldn't? Great card. Hugz
