Happy Anniversary - leaves in window

Hey everyone - hope you had a great weekend (including Labor Day in the USA)!! I visited my parents and my baby sister - so wonderful to see them! My poor dad was in the hospital a couple days (non-covid, thankfully) but he's home and almost good as new. 😊

When I got home yesterday I decided I'd better get busy on cards for the rest of September. I already had my September Card Chain card ready to mail and happened to have leftovers of the colors ginger and buttercup. Here's my anniversary card for a couple of friends: 

Supplies: Paper - Hero Arts; Paper Studio; Bazzill & Lawn Fawn

Dies - Creative Expressions Happy Anniversary;

Pink Fresh Studio Floral Circles;

Sunny Studio Window Quad Circle;

Hero Arts Square Infinity Dies

My Favorite Things Blueprints (banner) &

Leafy Greenery (both retired)

Other - May Arts string twine

Here's a side view of the open card & one of the inside:

I got the Sunny Studio Window Quad Circle die last week and had die cut it from a scrap of buttercup paper. It was sitting there on the craft table and I thought it would look great with the Pink Fresh floral circles behind. I backed them with a scrap of acetate alternative leftover from my print-making coloring using alcohol inks. Covered the inside with a piece of Lawn Fawn watercolor paper die cut with the window too. I suppose I could've backed the leaves with more glittery die cuts but I thought the white back looked fine. Sentiment is from Taylored Expressions The Inside Scoop - Anniversary.

Thanks for stopping & have a crafty day!!
