Anniversary cards

It has been weeks since I've had the time or motivation to blog.  Of course I'd rather be stamping and Holiday preps have taken precedence.  I've made a New Years resolution to blog twice a week in 2016.  I thought I would start this week by sharing some pretty anniversary cards with you.  Today is my husband's and my 52nd anniversary and my daughter, Lisa and her husband's 30th.  We both chose the same set to make our cards.  I love the Timeless Love stamp set.  It is such an elegant font and the flowers accent beautifully.
This was my card that I sent to Lisa And Michael.  It is done in Blushing Bride ink and uses lace and flowers from a retired accessory set.  I loved its softness and hint of love.  I made several in Mint Macaron too.

Here is my husband's card.  Since it snowed all day yesterday, I felt as if I needed to do something in snowflakes.  I had so much of the beautiful Wonderland Specialty designer Series Paper left over and black and white is so masculine, it just lent itself to the card.  The touch of black glimmer paper added sparkle.  The Flurry of Wishes snowflakes added the perfect accent.  Both the designer and glimmer papers are retiring next week so you only have a week to get some if you want them. Thank goodness the Flurry of Wishes bundle is being carried over.  I really love that set.

My daughter's card to us is really unique.  I have to ask her how she made it.  The vellum is beautiful and I'm not sure if she stamped it or it came that way.

Tomorrow is Simply Stampin' lunch Bunch.  I'm posting the five cards on my Stamping with Sherron Facebook page next so check them out.  I'll have more pictures and details about them later this week.  Hope you all have a great New Years.  Ours will be very quiet this year.  Hugs, Sherron.
