I should have made mine RED because that is her favorite color. Inking in Red is her blog if you would like to wish her a big, happy anniversary.
This was a really simple card to make. I stamped the beautiful heart from Mark's Finest Papers set called Hearts, Hearts, Hearts three times. Stacked them one on top of the other. I am using my punch around the page (double loop) by Martha Stewart and my all time favorite Cuttlebug embossing folder-Textile, Just added a ribbon and pearl and that's it.
