Anniversary card for my parents

So...Mom and Dad - if you happen to be looking at this - don't scroll down until I hopefully see you later today and am able to give it to you (a day late!).

On Monday evening, as I decided to turn the calendar over to February, I all of a sudden remembered that my Mom and Dad's anniversary was on the 1st!!! It was too late to make it that night, but as I went to bed, this idea popped into my head...so it came together pretty quickly in the morning! I am also entering it in the Valentines project challenge over at 40:31 Creations, since it is definately perfect for a Valentines card, even though I am using it as an anniversary card.

The cute squirrels came from Give a Hoot cartridge, and I added some stitching and wiggly eyes to them. The little thought bubbles are from a Unity Stamp set, and I just hand wrote in the sentiment. I couldnt' quite find the right ribbon that I wanted for the top, so I just took one I liked, and wrapped it with Baker's Twine to make it match like I wanted. Added some faux stitching around the outside. Happy Anniversary Mom and Dad - I think 42 years this year if I counted right!!! Love you!
