Our anniversary is in December and so I made Tim a Winterish feeling card this year using a die set from Recollections. The sentiment stamp is from Memory Box. HERE is the pattern paper I used.
I really had fun with this for some reason… I suppose it was because for once I was able to incorporate pattern paper without stressing about it! hoho
So I made 6 for Tim to use for Christmas cards that he sends using a plaid from Photoplay Paper. Cindy has sets with plaids that I want to use next… this one HERE, this one HERE and another one HERE. We could even take this into Valentines HERE! lol
I tried using LED lights to take the last two pictures… I really like how bright they are for working… my husband doesn’t mess around…these are 300 watts! lol He brought how 500 watts too but I said, no, you keep those for work. Yes, these are light bulbs! whoa! lol
Entering some challenges…

Happy Anniversary!! Great card! It’s always hard to make “guy” cards. My hubby would love this as he is an avid hunter. Have a very Merry and Blesssd Christmas!
I love these cards SO MUCH! I can’t settle on any one style as a favorite. Cute makes me happy. These cards make me feel all warm and cozy. Beautiful makes me sigh. Happy anniversary! I love those plaid papers and, of course, looked at them all. My caroling critters are singing to me from the dining room table. Happy!! Thank you, and merry Christmas!

Hi Pam, what a great design! The plaid combined with the deer head really gives it a masculine flair. Love the tan and black with that lovely sprig of greenery. It’s a great design for Christmas and works just as well for a winter Anniversary (congratulations, btw). Thanks so much for joining our Watercooler Wednesday Challenge this week.
Fabulous cards Pam! Thanks so much for joining in the fun at our Double D ‘Baby It’s Cold Outside (winter)’ challenge! We hope you’ll come back often.
