Five Years Ago Today…

Posted by Jen | Verve, cards, challenges, designer of the month | Saturday, September 27, 2008

Tony and I walked down the aisle. The card that I made for the Sketch For You To Try is the one that I made to give to him today. Happy Anniversary!

I’m going to make this short and sweet {I think}! Today is Suzanne Dean’s last weekend as a the Designer Of The Month. Again, she has blown us away! Thank you Suzanne for playing along with us! Next weekend I will be introducing a new Guest Designer that I am sure that you will love.

So let’s get to it! Here’s the sketch…

Here’s my card {for Tony}…

Suzanne’s card…

Check out the samples from a few of my friends, Amy R., Amy S., Carole, Shannan and Susan!

Wanna play? Here’s what you should know…

1. ANYONE can play.
2. Have fun with this!

    Happy Anniversary Jen & Tony!

    Well, I wasn’t sure what I was gonna do with this sketch because I was dieing to use my new Bella stamps and wasn’t sure how I could use them in these little boxes. Then, I was inspired by Shannon’s example! I love her card by the way. And I love how my card turned out. Hope you like it as well. Bellas are so much fun. If you go to my blog, you will also see another Bella card. Just wanted to say that I used one of Jen’s old sketches. Well, I copied the layout almost exactly! I thought Jen’s card was real cute.
    Have a great weekend!
