This week over at the Farm Fresh Challenge Blog, we are back to playing with BLACK & WHITE with a twist . . . add a "SPLASH" of another color! So break out that favorite accent color to go with the black & white theme.
Here's my black and while with a 'splash' of color . . . BROWN! My hubby and I just celebrated our 12th Anniversary and this is the card I made for him. I used Kissy Kissy (digi) . . . it was the perfect image! Chocolate brown was our wedding color --- I did not wear a veil and had flowers in my hair just like Anya.
The intention was to keep the card clean & simple and let the image speak for itself.
Awww, a closeup of the couple. So in luv!!! :) What did we do on our anniversary? We just had a really nice dinner at home with our 3 kids. Since the baby doesn't take a bottle, we find it very difficult to leave him with anyone for an extended period of time. So, the hubby made dinner . . . steak, shrimp cocktail, crab salad, toss salad, and for dessert . . . Rocky Road Ice-Cream with Nutter Butter mini cookies on top! The dessert was actually for my kids. :) They were thrilled!!! After the kids went to bed and we had a quite moment to ourselves, my hubs popped open a bottle of champagne. He poured it into the same 2 glasses we drank out of 12 years ago. I suppose it's our tradition but every year I tell him not to buy champagne. I really don't like the taste of it . . . I force myself and struggle to drink the one glass to celebrate. I would be happy sharing a can of COKE instead! :)
Anyways, the W.O.W. challenge is open until Tuesday; entries are due by 12 PM CST. The winner is chosen by random draw and wins a free digi of choice! Please upload your challenge cards/projects to TGF Galleria > Farm Fresh Challenges 2011 > Which One Wednesday > Color Splash. Come join us and thanks for stoppin' by! :)
