Happy Anniversary...a card for The Shabby Tea Room - week #183 - "Time Flies"



Hello Friends,
Today I am thrilled to be here with my second post as Guest Designer for the month of September 2013 over at The Shabby Tea Room.  The theme this week is "Time Flies" and this is the inspiration photo:  
The Shabby Tea Room - Week #183 - "Time Flies"

We were asked to create a card or project that includes a clock image. 
I embossed a "clock" background stamp in silver on a 4" circle diecut for the focal point of my card.  Then I embossed the beautiful couple stamp from the Paper Sweeties - "Live, Love, Laugh" stamp set in silver and fussy cut them out.  I inked the edges and background of this piece with some aqua mist and smokey shadow inks.  The Tupelo Circle "wreath" is a Memory Box die that I cut from smokey shadow card-stock. I cut it twice and cut the second wreath apart to use as leaves with my Prima flowers.  The "Happy Anniversary" sentiment is from the same Paper Sweeties stamp set.  

Thanks for looking at my card.  I hope you will join in the fun at the tea room this week!
Crafty Hugs,
Jill

  11. Jill, such an amazing card with the silver EP and the layers each containing the theme of silver. But more, I am in love with the anniversary wish and a clock - showing how time passes, but love grows. What an amazing concept to reveal in a card like this - simply gorgeous!
