Whimsy Stamps Challenge AND Hubby's Birthday!

Howdy -

Well today is Valentines Day - my favorite holiday :0) It is also Hubby's Birthday and our 27th Wedding Anniversary!! Big day here huh? You would think we really paint the town on this day huh? Nope.. LOL We are not ones to dress up and sit on a bench waiting 2-3 hours to eat a fancy meal somewhere. We sometimes go out for lunch.. early or late from the crowd of course! But we are together 24/7 and we celebrate everyday - so we skip the crowds on "our day".  Sometimes I actually COOK a special dinner. Maybe I will do that tonight.. LOL But I did make him a card with one of the new images from Whimsy Stamps... and it fit right in with the challenge starting today!!

This is "Lady Love Bug" by Miss Rach Digi's -


I colored with my Copics (colors below) - I found a piece of pattern paper I think from Martha Stewart that was perfect for my card today - I used Black and Red Card stock. Bold but I love the combo. I then found a piece of black and white gingham ribbon. I know you are looking at it and saying "White?" well I ended up not liking the white... so I colored it with my red copic. Love how easy that changes a ribbon! I then doodled the edge of the image and added LOTS of hearts to the top and bottom with stickles.

The inside is just like the front. I left it blank for my mushy personal stuff...


Here are my Copics -


Now you need to pop on over to the Whimsy Challenge Blog - Lots of great Love from all the DT - then join us for a chance to win some Whimsy for yourself!

I am off to find Hubby and give him another Birthday/Anniversary Kiss :0)
HUGS and
