I have fallen in love with the Falling In Love Designer Series Paper. (Have I said that before?) Its soft, calming colors and beautiful images just make me feel all warm and fuzzy. I used it, along with the So In Love bundle (So In Love stamp set and So Detailed Thinlits Dies) and the Falling In Love Embellishments, to make today’s Happy Anniversary card.
