My dad asked me to make a card for one of his dearest friends and his wife's wedding anniversary. Knowing the couple, and that they have a great sense of humor, the first thing that came to mind for them was a stamp I had just gotten from Impression Obsession. They are city folk...from the south side of Pittsburgh, who now live in a more rural community in western Pennsylvania. For people who used to pull up a few red bricks from the "yard" to plant a tomato bush, the outhouses will surely touch a funny bone for them. He was also a hunter in his younger years, so the rack on the His outhouse is a perfect touch. The Judith TP and plunger that is stamped on the inside went along perfectly.
The card base is certainly celery with a layer of chocolate chip. The image is colored with Copic markers. I added some flower-shaped pewter brads and a couple of layers of a Martha Stewart border punch. I stamped the inside with a simple "Happy Anniversary" sentiment.
