VLVJuly 2013 Weeks 1,3,4 and 5

Here are the other 4 VLVJuly2013 cards - I used week 2 on Monday!

I hope you like them - they are a real mix.  Week 4 is using this week's Less is More picture for inspiration.

FOSTV83 - CAS

Today's challenge at Friends of Speedy TV is to make a CAS card - Clean and Simple.  Now occasionally I find this easy but this one was a challenge.

I wanted to make a card for Dave for our Anniversary (yesterday) and I was trying to capture "our song" "You're in my heart" by Rod Stewart.  All I managed was the YOU firmly printed on the heart from the Love, Love, Love stamp set.  I used Spellbinders Romantic Rectangles and a simple piece of blue ribbon (blue for his football team) fastened into a masculine brad.  The card base was embossed with a Spellbinders folder. I used the VLVJul2013 Week 2 sketch.

The chorus of the song for those of you who don't know it goes like this

You're in my heart, you're in my soul
You'll be my breath should I grow old
You are my lover, you're my best friend
You're in my soul

Still appropriate after 34 years of marriage!  We took a trip to Littlehampton, walked by the sea, got sprinkled with rain a couple of times and had romantic fish and chips out of the paper sitting on a bench looking out over the river.

The inside of the card uses another set (Ivy and Blossoms) and looks like this

Wishing you all a very simple but special week. Hope you get to play the FOSTV challenge - challenge 83 from this page.
