Happy Anniversary

... to P and me!!  Married twelve years ago today.  Although it was totally serendiptious that we chose a wedding date of 8th August, it does make our anniversary easy to remember! 8th of the 8th...

And of course, I made an anniversay card to mark the occasion:



# Simon Says ~ Sing it, Baby
My song choice is "Love Me Do" (Beatles)
# Creative Inspirations ~ Challenge 40 ~ Recycled element
My recycled element is the vintage music paper 
# Crafty Creations ~ Challenge 79 ~ Wedding or anniversary
# ABC Challenge ~ A is for ~ August
# Etsy Inspired Challenges ~ 100th Challenge Party

My card was inspired by this gorgeous creation, which I found at Cathy Walter's Etsy Shop - she is a photographer who also makes beautiful pendants.
