To Love and Cherish

I went on a "small" shopping spree Saturday

looking for some of the new 6 x 6 burlap papers DCWV has out

I took the back roads and it was a pleasant trip....

seeing all the crops still waiting to be harvested....

 

Southwest, lower Michigan is known for all it's fruit and veggies grown here

The apple trees are loaded, I passed a HUGE cabbage patch waiting to be picked

Pumpkin fields everywhere...it just makes me feel good...plus the fact that I stopped

at the cutest fruit stand

they have a gift shop in it, baked goods (I purchased a pumpkin muffin) coffee

and the cutest little area to sit and enjoy a cup of coffee

I bought some butter rum candle nuggets...and they smelled so good, the hubs thought

they were something to eat...good thing he didn't

 

I did get my burlap paper at Joann Fabrics and also the nicest glitter paper I have seen,

also from DCWV, called Glitzy Glitter...it is a thin paper, and the glitter stays put.

you will love it.

 

 

Which brings me to this card....

I used the glitter paper to cut my CLD silver basket....

I filled it with aqua blue frosty flowers.....

the bow has a charm hanging from it that says "to Love and to Cherish"

the charm was on a wedding favor at my daughter's friend wedding....

the colors, aqua, silver, green and white are were the colors of her wedding....

this card will go to her for their anniversary....

how fun will it be to get one of her charms back?

 

And guess what??

It just so happens that this week at City Crafter

the challenge is this photo to use

 

 

and, you guessed it!!

silver, white, aqua and green...perfect!!
