Anniversary card for a friend...

Some friends of our celebrated their 9th anniversary yesterday, so what better excuse to play a little again with my Unity Kit of the month? I am really happy with how this came out - it was so much more sparkly and yet still vintage looking than it shows in the picture! 

Used Unity stamps for the main image, as well as the sentiment, and colored the little flower in with my Prismacolor pencils. Used my Tim Holtz distress tool on the edges of everything but the background, did a little faux stitching, and added LOTS of glitter. Finished off with some lace, velvet ribbon, and a string of pearls.
