This is an anniversary card for my husband. Tomorrow we will have been married for 10 years. Sentimental fool that I am, I tenderly crafted a LO of one of our wedding photos last week. He reciprocated this evening by making it perfectly clear he had completely forgotten all about it. He asked whether I was going to my craft club tomorrow night and I calmly informed him that of course I wasn't BECAUSE IT'S OUR ANNIVERSARY YOU FOOL!!
He got that deer in the headlights look and then claimed that the weekend away we had a few weeks ago was a "sort of" anniversary present, so he had "mentally ticked it off". Reader, there was a thin line where my mouth used to be I don't mind telling you.
Anyway. He's gone out to see a friend tonight. On the way I predict the buying of petrol station flowers and the sort of limp, flowery, pink non-event-specific card that shrieks "Oh sod it, this one'll do".
So sentiment is decidedly thin on the ground as far as my card making is concerned tonight, which accounts for this rather steely number. The stamp is by Bam Pop and I frankly couldn't be fagged to do anything more than colour and mount it. It's watercoloured with a black Sakura stardust pen - gives a lovely watercolour effect with a layer of sparkles too. The text was made using ACME Labelmaker.

Love the Bam Pop stamp, and what you've done with it as it's a great card!!
My OH did the same thing for our anniversary in July, claming the few days we were going away in August was "sort of" my present too!! Hope he surprised you..
I tagged you with the names tag if you'd like to play :)
Hi Sam, just popping by to see if you're having a lovely romantic weekend! The trouble with blokes, and you can tell by looking at your wedding pic that he adores you, is that he knows he loves you and figures you know it, too, and thinks (foolishly) that that is enough! Hope you get a great Saturday night. Make him take you somewhere. Or get a nice bottle of wine and a takeaway. And a nice DVD. Have fun. (I'm off to the pub later...)
