40th Anniversary

I truly love Rupa's newest stamp set, With This Ring. It is both classy and very detailed. Rupa's illustrations are so amazing... clean crisp and just breath-taking. I HAD to feature the Lustre paper from the Paper Temptress because I wanted an all black, red and white card and this paper just has such a "classy" look to it. I used my Stardust Glitter Pen on the "beads" surround the cake layers and my white Sakura Gel pen on the flowers between the red ones.

Red is the 40th Anniversary color and my parents seemed to just have theirs only yesterday but in fact it was 5 years ago!!! Time flies. I wish I had this set back then... I made so many "special" things for their anniversary party and it would have been perfect. I'll be pleased to make it to 25 years let alone 40! LOL Remember to stop over to StampTV and see all the other cards being shared using Rupa's newest set. Gina K certainly knows how to pick an illustrator! Have a great day and think happy thoughts.
