Sisterhood - LOVE

It's HUMP DAY everyone!
And, time for a new challenge at The Sisterhood of Crafters!
With the big "LOVE" holiday just two days away, 
that is our focus today . . .

L O V E
does not have to be Valentine's Day ... 
can be Wedding, Anniversary ... or just I {heart} You!

 How cute is this picture?  Rustic ... but cute!
(do you see the loving couple kissing through the back window?)
I snagged it over on Pinterest under the category of Old Trucks!
My background was constructed from a variety of Valentine paper scraps in my stash.  The XOXO ribbon is from Michael's ... Mr. & Mrs. stamp by Inkadinkado ... Heart Circle from a Reminisce Sticker sheet probably purchased at Joann's (old).  A little a matting and faux stitching ... Viola! 

A few qualifying challenges:

Ladybut Crafts Ink TLT - For the One I Love

Now this second creation is a little more on the Elegant side.
This card could be used as a Wedding card 
but also as a 50th Wedding Anniversary card.

  13. Darlene, you have made two very beautiful cards here. :) There's such a versatility in your creativity. The golden card is so neat and pretty.
