Happy Anniversary Circles




Since I'm celebrating my blog's one year birthday (and giving away a few goodies) I thought it would be fun to check in with a few of the card challenges I've done a number of times in the last year.  Susan's cards over at Simplicity always sing to me, my CAS style has found a muse!  It's fun to look back at my first One Layer Wednesday card almost exactly a year ago.  This is the my 22nd One Layer Wednesday card, a true feat considering that I find one layer cards difficult.  I'm also entering this card in this week's Moxie Fab World Tuesday Trigger, and over the year I have done 42 different Moxie Fab cards (not so sure about the first one).  I'm also celebrating my wedding anniversary today, 9 years :)  So I gave this card to my hubby.  

To enter my birthday blog celebrations please post a comment anytime this week, become a follower and check back on Sunday to see if you've won.

Materials: Paper Source Circle stamp, PTI Fillable Frames #4 sentiment, Versacolor ink, Fiskars corner rounder, white card stock from Ben Franklin

Happy anniversary! Nine years! Hope you two are doing something extra special celebrate.

What a super circly card! LOVE the use of color to symbolize two becoming one (or three, if you are a staunch individualist like George and myself!).

Thanks so much, Erin.

Happy anniversary to you and Dan! Break out the bottle (s) of wine!
Love love love your CAS one layer card. Great color choices, great placement of the sentiment! Ahh, love CAS.
Speaking of, I have to ask, will you start counting your CAS-ual Friday's challenges to see how many cards you can do for it in your second year of blogging?

Today (May 6th on the East Coast) is my wedding anniversary! The stinkin' thing is my hubby is a totally different state than I am! :-(

Love your CAS design and I really need to hit the Moxie Fab site more. I never get over there. Great take on the challenge!

You nailed the one layer card here! Simply stunning.

Beautiful card... I need to get back to OLW cards. Seems so many are over-embellishing their handmade cards, but One layer cards can be stunning, too!!
