You hold the key to my heart!




Hello everyone on Tuesday morning! I made this card for my dh for our anniversary...it will be 7 years of marriage on Nov 2nd, 2002...we have been together for 14 years since Nov 4th, 1995 (after I graduated)...and he is the love of my life..My cousin and his sister (were dating at the time) fixed us up...they set us up on a blind date only my husband got to see what I looked liked before we met...(cheater)..hehe..I did not know anything about him except he had a great personality, beautiful smile, and red hair..and did not like sports..so I guess I did know some..anyway, When they told me red hair and did not like sports...I usually don't date those guys..don't know why, I guess I was always into the athletes...but it all worked out and we are so in love..his hair now does not even look red..but he does love hockey....so I hope he loves this card!

Sorry had a moment there....I used George for the siloquette circle cut @ 4 1/4" and then cut another circle in green.

Used Sweethearts cart for the heart cut @ 4"

The key cut @ 4 3/4"

The cartoche cut @ 2" , then handscribbled you hold the key to my heart (with gold gelpen) then I traced it with white gelpen to stand out...

I inked everything with my distressed ink (tea dye), used raffia, and burlap to give it an old feel Plus make it more manly...I did add a glitter heart to the key but also inked it...added buttons, tore paper, used cuttlebug swissdots, swirls, and circles to emboss it....inside I will put a poem...haven't found one I like yet...Thank you for stopping by!
