This card just makes me smile when I look at it. Isn't that why we make cards...to make people smile... and my husband smiled all day on our anniversary after he opened this card that I made just for him.
I used a Meljens digital image "Teddy Bear Couple" that I won from Tuesday Morning Sketches this week. I merged the digi image onto a photo taken several years ago of a special spot in our yard of a bench where we love to sit together. This was done through the magic of Photoshop. The photo on the right was made during Halloween.
I then printed the scene and colored the digi with Copics. Completed the card with a sticker and edged with a gold marker which partly covered the sentiment. Oops. Used a gold metallic mat from DCWV and attached to base card. This area in the yard has more mature trees and plants now...just as we are now more mature ( a nicer way to say we getting older).
Just happened to come across a challenge that fits this card...could not resist it.
