Curtain Call Design Team Announcement!

 

There's a new show in town!  The Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge (formerly Curtain Call Color Challenge) will make it's GRAND Re-Opening on July 15th! 

Oh, I remember the original Curtain Call…I had the pleasure of being one of their Guest Designers and now I get to be an official Design Team Member.  Stacey has resigned the challenge and blog and it’s going to be amazing!  Hop on over to the Curtain Call blog to meet more of the Design Team, become a follower, and get ready to be inspired!

But before I go, I must let you know about something else wonderful happening today…it’s my 6th Anniversary…I know, it’s not the biggest of anniversaries, but that’s what happens when you wait (and wait…and wait) to meet your Prince Charming.  Here’s the card I made for a previous Verve release.  This card has been waiting patiently on my card display shelf since February!  How’s that for great organization and planning! LOL

So what are we doing to celebrate?  I’m all into following the modern or traditional anniversary gifts.  I found this cool website that also gives the option of ways to celebrate each anniversary.  The 6th anniversary gifts are:

traditional: candy or iron

modern: wood, symbolizing a long-lasting and solid marriage

LOL, the candy part was easy as the DH has a sweet tooth.  But we’ve been landscaping this week and thought that planting a flaming red maple tree (symbolizing the flaming passion we have for each other) would be most appropriate :)  I LOVE this idea :)

Thanks for sharing a special day for me in two ways!!  Have a great day!
