Anniversary Card

 Hi All, our anniversary was the 20th and I created this
'masculine' anniversary for my hubby. 
I always struggle with masculine cards for some reason
and since I had just recently purchased this awesome
Simon Happy Cover die with stamp set recently I thought it would
work good for the hubby's card!
One thing about this die is that you cut it once for the frame then
again in a different pattern for the letters,
making two different cards, (hope that makes sense)!


The paper for the letters was Brutus Monroe Secret Garden (no longer available)
though they do have a 'new' secret garden one out now different from this one, same name.  Anyhow he seemed very pleased with it.

Yup, it makes sense and I love that you're on a roll with this set! If only I could do the same with my new stuff, sigh (another order is on it's way). Masculine cards can be difficult, but I'd say this one is just about perfect!

The bold lettering from the Simon die makes such a statement—perfect for a masculine anniversary card! I love how you paired the letter inlay with a more subtle frame background; it creates a clean and eye-catching design. That Brutus Monroe paper is such a gem, even if it’s no longer around—it adds just the right bit of flair. I can see why your hubby was pleased! This feels personal, thoughtful, and striking all at once.
